I'm not sure about offering recs to people. I choose triple boxsets of artistes I want to listen to. I already get some good and some bad in DLTT--- LTT! so I think I have that covered. I've only done two TBS here so I'm not entirely sure where you're coming from?
Edit: I see I misread that. Maybe. You're talking about ALL my reviews? But they're always ordered to a certain focus. Look at ABM: took recs for that and it's going well. Pirate Metal, nothing I can do about that; basically covered them all. Recced albums is with the members and so are the top tens. The Intl Language is hard to do, as I've already explained. I'm not quite clear on which ones you think are random? Even the latest albums for the "Freshly Forged" section I've been careful to pick a mix of well known and more obscure albums released this year, so I think there's really something for everybody here.

Definitely the International feature. It's moderately interesting, but considering Bosnia's (I think it was Bosnia) lack of relevancy to metal at large, does it really make sense to do 50 features on it? The AGM thing was good, as it was focused on a specific topic which featured an important subgenre of metal... as opposed to pirate metal.
There's been plenty of good stuff, but it feels like a disproportionate amount of times I click on your thread, I scratch my head as to why you included this or that band or feature. I just think a bit more focus would be good.
