These albums have been seIected from Top 100 Gothenburg metal albums of this website. Please only seIect your favorite album from options and write a short review about your favorite album and say why you think that is the best. I know there are bands like Kalmah, Amorphis and... But I wanted to choose albums without other influences. Don't ask why albums like Fiction, Whoracle and ... aren’t here. I only had 9 options and these albums have been seIected by their popularity and my taste.
I know there is another similar forum here but albums in this poll are different.

It would be interesting to know why people pick certain albums, not just which ones they pick.

I haven't voted because I haven't heard most of these. But it seems like it will be with oden on our side. It's the best.

You seem to be missing the Whoracle album from In Flames. I guess I'll go with the Jester Race

Slaughter of the Soul. The album by which all the others should be judged.

You NEED to listen to The Jester Race by In Flames!! All the others are very good to, but that is so freakin special. It's a real Gothenburg album (I know, because I am from Gothenburg ;P).

Also, I wanna state that Amon Amarth is not gothenburg.

1. They're not from, or even close to the town of Gothenburg.
2. If it's a real Gothenburg album, you should be able to see views from Gothenburg before you as you listen

But I don't wanna critizise or anything... just sayin' what I think

Actually, I heard The Jester Race. Good album with really annoying vocals. But it's far from the greatness of Amon Amarth. However, like you, I don't think they're Gothenburg. They have their very own style, especially those melodic tremolo picked parts. Thanks for the recommendation anyway, Count Dracula.

I just HAD to pick The Gallery, it's an immortal classic. I adore Insomnium as well, they're new and a bit different, but the most monstrously good of the new bands

7.0 means the album is good

I voted Slaughter of the Soul, with Jester Race following close behind. Two of the first melodic death metal albums I owned, but the thrash elements put Slaughter of the Soul ahead. Just love it.
