Album Listening Club for the Metal Survivor Thread

Don't know how many of these I've already missed but even the glam metal list ( not really a fan generally ) is a good one. Hope to take part in more of them.

We've only done thrash and trad metal so far, so there's still plenty of this thread to go. I haven't done any math but I imagine this thread could easily go on longer than a year.

Holy ****, I just did some math. Not counting the two battles already done, and the current one, there are twenty-one still to go. Two days for each round, times ten albums each, times twenty-one battles = 420 days. That's funny as ****, but still, god damn this is gonna be a longass thread. It is what it is I guess cause I'm not about to cut corners and leave out sub-genres that deserve their shot.

And then there's still the final battle after all the other ones are done to decide the ultimate winner. 24 albums with two days for each round adds another 48 days. God damn.

So we'll be doing stoner/doom last then, right?

Well, considering that the DM battle is only half done and I have a tendency to let a day slip away from me here and there I imagine 420 is gonna come and go before this is done, and I already slated stoner/sludge for the next battle.

And I already got all those album links, which is a pain in the ass, unless of course you want to find all the Youtube vid links to all ten of those black metal albums?

Nah, I wouldn't want you to have to put any work into one of your threads. Carry on.

I'll ****ing kill you. Do you have any idea how many man hours I've spent refining all my lists? I'm the ****ing Jesus Christ, dude.

Why'd you even bother if it's a pain in the ass?

A.) I'm OCD, and B.) I get to listen to lots of metal. It rules. Tracking down album links however, does not.

You can listen to metal and tap your screen repeatedly while you do it if you want.
