Metal Storm 10th Anniversary Anthology Awards

As has been mentioned, 2014 marks the 10th Anniversary of the Metal Storm Awards. A decade of us - staff and users alike - crowning kings for their efforts. Over 10 years we've had the privilege and pleasure of checking out a LOT of awesome albums.

As part of our celebration we decided to acknowledge the best albums we've heard in the past decade.

Much blood was shed as staff put on the foil and went to battle with one another to represent, pimp, and promote their personal favorites.
Now we need your help in voting for what you consider the landmark albums. The best of the best. The Legends.

So check out our nominees and cast your ballot. (link removed since the prank is done)

Drowned Mr. Vitutation Posts: 15	Permalink 01.04.2014 - 00:43 Drowned Mr. Vitutation Posts: 15 Awards are a great thing but I don't see any reason to make this kind of voting travesty. The alternatives suck big time and are in wrong categories. For example, how Children of Bodom is Black Metal and Dissection not? Sorry guys, I'm just really disappointed. I hope you could do a new vote with more and better candidates with possibility for write-in votes. Loading...
