So, I counted up the "best/worst albums" thread...

(as seen here)

...and the lushes have spoken!

With seven votes each, the tied "Best Albums of 2007" are...

Porcupine Tree's Fear Of A Blank Planet and Divine Heresy's Bleed The Fitfth!


Honourable mention goes to
Symphony X - Paradise Lost
with 6 votes.

With a ridiculous 17 votes, the most disappointing album of 2007 is...

Dream Theater's Sytematic Chaos!


...like no-one saw that coming, heh. (Dis)honourable mention to
Ozzy Osbourne's Black Rain
with six votes.

As for the biggest surprise of 2007, there weren't that many votes; in fact, only one band got more than one vote, and that band was...

Divine Heresy with Bleed The Fifth!


So, what can we draw from these results? Firstly, WTF DDORIEN CANOT C0UN7 W3Z B00RLENS EP1C WINEND EVRY V0T3 FGT Secondly, Dino pretty much owns our souls. Thirdly, Petrucci is probably going into killzone mode right about now Here's to 2008!

I hope Petrucci doesn't use that one switch on his pedal board that...... I've said too much already.

I've conducted a recount. The new results?

Best album of the year = DIMMU BORGIR - IN SORTE DIABOLI.

I really, really thought the Divine Heresy album was dull as dishwater. Now I feel distanced from the ss.org community

^^Heh, me too. For a metalcore album it's pretty decent, for a legitimately enjoyable work... not so much. Still, Dino's right hand > you and your entire family

For those who really care, Nile and Dimmu both got five votes, Dillinger Escape Plan's Ire Works and Between The Buried And Me's Colors got four votes, and I don't remember any others. I expected more mentions of the Outworld album, actually. Oh well.

Based on this, I went out to my local HMV and bought it. Worth every penny.

Bleed The Fifth on your car stereo =

Bleed The Fifth live =

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.
