where is the winners thread. I wanna see who beat me, haha.

I read through it, I know you voted me for best new member.

However, I do not expect to win, lots more who contribute more than I do who deserve it. But the nomination is appreciated.

I imagine being nominated and getting beat by Jethro Tull or something.

Yep you were beaten by Howard the Duck (Il Duce) he's the Jethro Tull of MB.

That name always makes me think of that god awful movie. I know it was a comic first, but that movie is dreadful.

I always think of the Duck Tits.

but guess I shall do something on topic now, before this turns into the new random thread:

been on a Finnish Death Metal spree again recently. Some of my favorites as of late:

a band that only released 2 demos. But both demos were great, mid paced stuff.

another band with a limited output. Probably know to some as the band that came before Amorphis. Though only having one member who would go onto that group. Releasing a demo and one EP.

One of my favorite Finnish bands, this is the only with the true Finnish sound.

Talking of Finland and I know its more melodic death in style, but I'm giving Amorphis and Tales From A Thousand Lakes another listen.

great song.

Amorphis- The Castaway - YouTube

Yep, listened to that album the other day. Doesn't hold up quite as well as I remember it, but is still a highly enjoyable record with more doom influences than the debut... which was more heavy on the Death Metal from what I remember.

But I still love first 3 albums by Amorphis. Elegy was actually the first one I heard, and though not a Death Metal release, still highly enjoyable in its own right.
