EXTREME METAL Albums Poll - Nominations Round

Ah right, I'd noticed that about the song titles but was still none the wiser about the pronunciation. You learn something new every etc.

Metal writer: So what's the new album called.
Arckanum dude: [pronounces album title]
Metal writer: [wipes face]

Satyricon gets dumped on for reasons beyond my comprehension.

*sigh* can't not nominate this, even though it's totally obscure and didn't influence anyone

Protected Illusion - Festering Fairytales

I found it looking for death/thrash like Sadus, and in all honesty, it outdoes that. It's like you took a crust/grind band from 2015 and transported them back to 1990 and said "make a thrash record, but don't let anyone onto the fact you're from the future." Incredibly precise, proggy and brutal, and I can't believe they weren't huge.

Monstrosity - Spiritual Awakening

Err...SPIRITUAL APOCALYPSE

inspired by seeing them last night and they were great!

I meant to nominate

Liturgy - Aesthetica

instead of Renihilation but why not both.

In fact I'm going to dump some last minute noms because even though nobody will vote for them probably, perhaps some madman will weed through the entire list at some point. I might do that myself, since I've never got round to actually listening to most of the canonical important stuff...

Going to include some Black Twilight Circle because it would be a shame if they were left out

!T.O.O.H.! - Pod vládou biče
!T.O.O.H.! - Rad A Trest
Ashdautas - Where The Sun Is Silent...
Averse - The Endesque Chants
Duobetic Homunkulus - Ani já ani ty robit něbudzeme, šedněme do koča, vozit še budzeme
Kuxan Suum - Kinich Ahau
Morbus Chron - Sweven
Muknal - Muknal
Volahn - A'ab'al
Yellow Eyes - Hammer Of Night

That should be "Aq'ab'al" by Volahn

Fantômas - Suspended Anisusmation

anyone got anything left to nominate? Frobisher hasn't said they've closed yet

Meshuggah - Destroy Erase Improve

Fantômas - Suspended Anisusmation

What? "Animation" that is

Creepiest autocorrect ever.

I actually have no idea what happened there. Probably more to do with the fact I'm terrible at typing.

OK 1 more

Oranssi Pazuzu - Kosmomonument

Krallice - Ygg Huur
Panopticon - Roads to the North
Alcest - Le Secret (EP)
Deafheaven - New Bermuda
Obliveon - Nemesis
Angel Hair - Pregnant with the Senior Class (does this count?)
Nachtmystium - Assassins: Black Meddle, pt 1
Corrupted - Garten der Unbewusstheit
Spektr - Near Death Experience
Ambergris - Ambergris (EP)
Stara Rzeka - Cień chmury nad ukrytym polem

bit early for 2015 albums just out a week to be called a classic surely?

I don't see the word "classic" anywhere in the OP.

That Stara Rzeka album is great. Not sure how metal it is but I'll probably have to vote for it.

Yeah, Frobisher is free to DQ that, or anything. If it had BM or DM vocals anywhere on it, I thought it was fair to throw out there.

i just mean that ppl prob wont vote for it

I was nominating albums that I might consider voting for, not predicting how other people will vote.

Carcass - Surgical Steel
Tribulation - The Formulas of Death
Tribulation - The Children of the Night
Obsequiae - Aria of Vernal Tombs

Hail Spirit Noir - Oi Magoi
Howls of Ebb - Vigils of the 3rd Eye
Opeth - Ghost Reveries

Meh, 2015 albums are fine! Especially if you think they're really good and will stand the test of time. Sorry I haven't been around much, I have been preoccupied with things at home! I will leave nominations open throughout tonight and finish this thread up tomorrow morning, or whenever I wake up. Sound good? So, last call, everyone! Get em' in now if you have noms left!

a couple more...

Assück - Anticapital
Cathedral - Forest of Equilibrium
Demolition Hammer - Tortured Existence
Indian - From All Purity
Kriegsmaschine - Enemy Of Man
Mgla - Exercises in Futility
Skepticism - Aes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_metal

This doesn't sound like a real subgenre at all.

I've been weighing this one up - if it is metal, it's certainly extreme, as it's done with synths and vocoder, but fuck it

O.L.D. - Formula

Having added that I'd be compelled to add Ulver - Blood Inside, another of my favourite extreme albums but unclear of status. Frobisher, clear this up!

That Stara Rzeka album is great. Not sure how metal it is but I'll probably have to vote for it.

Same here.

Bathory - Hammerheart
Master - On the Seventh Day God Created ... Master
Massacre - From Beyond
Nailbomb - Point Blank
Deceased - As the Weird Travel On
Toxic Holocaust - Chemistry of Consciousness
The Haunted - s/t

silentist - s/t
silentist - nightingales
silentist - chariot swing
silentist - house on the hill

Ancient - Mad Grandiose Bloodfiends
Nunslaughter - Angelic Dread
Brujeria - Matando Güeros
Mortician - Chainsaw Dismemberment
Bongzilla - Gateway
Various Artists - Gummo OST

OK thank you bill. The noms are a wrap, thank you everyone! Not sure when to begin the voting thread, perhaps tonight? Does anyone care?

oh I think plenty care since plenty nominated!

How long are you setting the voting period for?

25 minutes

Dang, forgot to nominate the Kvelertak debut. Oh well...

So is there going to be voting for this poll?

Amazing user name^

Thanks, I'm new here.

not sure all my noms are on the list yet?

The Somberlain, for one, is conspicuously absent.

DIEBOLD

The poll was a ruse, Frobisher just wanted a laugh at our horrible tastes

frobisher took the poll money and went to rio

lol, sorry guys this has been a particularly busy week for me... also I'm not sure I know how to tabulate results! I'll try to get the voting thread up this weekend and have a google form thing set up to e-mail your ballots. I'll probably have a 50-album ballot max, 5 min, open for two weeks. Hold in there, I promise this isn't the comic strip poll all over again!

motherfuckit I am listening to At the Gates' The Red Sky Is Ours, and realizing that yeah this is definitely classic. Too late to nom?

Also: Slaughter - Strappado!
