There was no write-in for djent so I voted for one.
Not totally clean (trolls in last categories are kept for fun),
Thanks to the person who curated most of the write-is since yesterday, it really reduced the work to do!

PS : I cleaned the list listening to The Testament by Seventh Wonder, so I was particularly unhappy to see it in the biggest letdowns at the end

3.Disturbed - Divisive

4.Dog Fashion Disco - Cult Classic

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. And I'm not broke yet.
