I was surprised to see we didn't have a single album make both our lists (although we both featured Wake at least) - however, there are quite a few here that I thought were excellent albums (HSN, Anaal N, Sweven, Thurisaz, Esoch...), so our tastes aren't quite as far apart as you may fear

I think it is more of a "we prefer different styles" kind of thing. I mean, if I am going to listen to styles I don't normally listen to, it is very likely that I will enjoy your selections.
