Metal Album Survivor [1st Wave Black Metal Division]

I've been deciding which genres to do this whole time, but I guess I'll let you guys vote on which one to do next. I was thinking grindcore, but I'll leave it to you. These are the remaining ones...

Glam Metal
Grindcore
Industrial Metal
Groove Metal
Progressive Metal
Melodic Death Metal
Post-Metal
Folk Metal
Drone Metal

Might also shorten some of these to five album battles, since I don't know that enough people will care about/be familiar with all the albums for drone metal, folk metal, post-metal, or glam metal. These are the lists for those battles...

Spoiler for kubndfgv:

Also, if I posted a new metalcore battle with five albums, would enough people actually care for another try? Something like...

1. Converge - Jane Doe
2. Dillinger Escape Plan - Ire Works
3. Protest the Hero - Fortress
4. Botch - We Are the Romans
5. Earth Crisis - Destroy the Machines

Or should I use more well-known bands like Killswitch Engage or Trivium, just so we can at least have an ironic battle. Since Converge would probably win by default, I guess it doesn't necessarily matter who the other four bands are.

Post-metal and drone metal are maybe the only other ones where I'm fluent enough to vote from the beginning. So I'd like it if you kept those in.

They'll be kept regardless. I'm just talking about shortening the lists of ten albums to five albums.
