There was a tie, but since they had more past votes you can put a pillow over their face, cause Suffocation are done. Next round...
5. Obituary - Cause of Death 4. Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness 3. Cryptopsy - None So Vile 2. Nile - In Their Darkened Shrines 1. Death - Human Vote 2 off. Polls end on March 8. And since we're now officially halfway through the death metal battle, I thought I'd announce that after this we'll move onto sludge/stoner. Got the Youtube album vids all there in the spoiler so you don't even need to track them down yourself. Spoiler for Sludge/Stoner Metal Battle Youtube Vids:

****ers! Quit voting for Morbid Angel. I can already tell they won't beat Death, but if they can take third spot after Nile and Death I'll at least be happy. I'm assuming it'll come down to Nile vs Death at least, with Death coming out on top. ****ers. And if I was gonna use an Enslaved album in my prog metal battle, which one? Vertebrae might be the proggiest, but is it worth choosing over Isa or Below the Lights just on quality? Also coming to the conclusion that Amorphis deserve a spot somewhere: Elegy and Skyforger are ****ing sick. There's so much legitimately kickass prog metal that gets ignored for boring, or at least less awesome bands that are overblown nonsense (i.e. Dream Theater and Ayreon). I guess prog metal fans are just unimaginative prog rock fans who just want Yes and Genesis with vaguely heavier riffs.

I might give it another go, but my first impression is that it was trash made by a band without any actual instinct for songwriting. I mean, is there, or is there not Kenny G saxophone in "Another Day"? That kind of sums up their cluelessness right there. They're not coming anywhere near my thread.
