Album Listening Club for the Metal Survivor Thread

This may very well be a futile venture, but I'm gonna give it a shot. There are a lot of categories and albums in the Metal Album Survivor thread, many of which are relatively obscure. Metal n00bs like Justin, Wpnfire, and Briks may very well be left out of the avant garde metal and folk metal battles simply because they haven't heard any of the albums, and maybe some people just need to brush up, so hopefully an album club dedicated to listening to some of those albums will at the very least get them interested in participating.

So, I'll pick an album each week, or week and a half, or two weeks, or whatever is realistic and dedicate it to an album that is more obscure. Then we discuss. I probably won't be doing anything from black metal or grindcore or any of the bigger genres, as they will hopefully take care of themselves. Anyone is welcome to participate, but this is mainly targeted toward the uninitiated.

First up is Nokturnal Mortum's Voice of Steel.

And here's the full list of album battles as they currently stand. They're still subject to change, but I'll make sure that any album used in this thread will be on one of the finalized lists.

Spoiler for Future Battles:
