Ahh... It feels good not to have to vote for TBYF for once. X To Bid You Farewell 2. When 3. Bleak (good start, gets lame) 4. The Moor (has highs and lows) X Windowpane (good start/solos, doesn't build much) X Deliverance (great) X In Mist She Was Standing (only fave to make finals)

Again, TBYF. Looks pretty good for The Moor at this point. With all of the crappy crappiness seen in these polls, I can actually live with that end result. 1. To Bid You Farewell 2. When 3. Bleak (good start, gets lame) 4. The Moor (has highs and lows) X Windowpane (good start/solos...

I mentioned Nectar because a lot of folks on the board have talked smack about it. I also mentioned Wreath, which is one of my two favorite Opeth tracks. And then there's Weakness, which could be my favoriate Damnation track... just calling it as I see it. Personally, I would expect Face of...

I had the same thought, Flood. I think there are enough fans of Weakness out there, however, that Wreath and Nectar could give it a good run for the money.

I hate having to think, so: http://lyrics.rockmagic.net/lyrics/overkill/the_years_of_decay_1989.html#i_hate Oh, wait, I hate 80's American speed metal...

[insert my standard bitch-and-moan here] Again, TBYF. 1. To Bid You Farewell 2. When 3. Bleak (good start, gets lame) 4. The Moor (has highs and lows) X Windowpane (good start/solos, doesn't build much) 6. Deliverance (great) X In Mist She Was Standing (only fave to make finals)

Man, this is freakin' weird. This very morning I had a vision that someone would start a new thread with this question, which was asked a short while ago: http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=100432 I even worked out whether I would repost my answer, or just send them to...

Man, it was bad enough that most of my favorite tracks got dissed in the heats, now my top 3 tracks among the finalists are going to be the first shot down... At least I can keep voting TBYF without having to think about it much. 1. To Bid You Farewell 2. When 3. Bleak (good start, gets...

If I'm feeling down, and I want to remain that way, I listen to any number of things. There's so many shades of "Down" that there is no single answer. My answers range from Godflesh to Joy Division. If I'm feeling down and want to break stuff, I listen to Godflesh. Or anything else with loud...

Y'know, I figure most of you are young, and then I remember that, at your age, I listened to crap like Marillion and Helloween. Keeping this in mind, and looking at all of the pansy-f*g songs that made the finals, I still feel hopeful that y'all can grow up to become bitter old f*cks with a...

I like the whole album, but "Weakness" is the only track that truly satisfies me. Still, some days I would answer this question with "Hope Leaves".

1. The Drapery Falls 2. Wreath [gap] 3. White Cluster 4. Serenity Painted Death 5. The Night and the Silent Water [gap] 6. In Mist She Was Standing 7. The Leper Affinity 8. By the Pain I See in Others 9. Advent 10. Forest of October Can you tell which albums I like *least*?

TBYF bugs the hell out of me, and I could do without most of MAYH, but Face of Melinda is the easy pick here.

TRTD has the best chorus on the album, but the rest of the song is chock-full-o'-triteness, and gets awfully anemic towards the end. Windowpane is a strong start for the album. For tops, I'd vote for HL, Weakness, and maybe IMTON over it, but if it wins (as it appears it will), it's one of...

Justin Broadrick His work on Godflesh alone would be enough to secure the spot. Throw in Final, Techno Animal, and the rest...

Saving my dis of Bleak for the finals... re Dirge: You didn't see my blubbering about Wreath in the final rounds of the Deliverance poll. Get over it, you twats. g:-P - d

"Nectar". It was early in my Black Metal exploration days. Granted, it was on the extremely awesome Blackend Vol 2 sampler, and, while a decent track, there were a *lot* of other bands with *great* tracks that jumped out on that sampler that got the nod (e.g., Satyricon, Ancient, Hecate...

There is a peace I am searching There is a freedom I'm depending on There is a pain that's never ending There is a rain falling only on me There is a dream I am living There is a life I'm dreaming of There is a death I'm awaiting There is a home I am deserting

Ditto. The Moor has some really good moments in it, but parts are a bit anemic, and the mastering problems really kill the listening experience for me.
