Have to include I in here just for completeness!



I'd reckon the number of votes it will garner will be small, in any event.

Has everything been reset? ...I could recast my vote.



I selected A, B and F. I'll post my reasoning later.



Edit: Oh right, Illud has been added... that explains it.

I just had a little thought (opinion of course): Heretic and IDI are reversals of each other. Heretic has bad production but good music. IDI has good production but bad music. :santa:



[edit] also I feel like the last minute of radikult sounds apologetic. Almost like music to accompany a game over screen on a video game, but it slowly pick itself back up to fight on, then Mae culpa starts.

Don't like D too much and B is worse. IDI is shitty too bit I dunno, I guess it's a sort of Heretic/gateways sound that pops up here and there which I dig. Still a crap album though. Like I say the rest of the discography is miles ahead of these three for me.

it's one of the things that has fascinated me for a long time is the abundant praise Blessed has but me just not getting at all. I'm not completeyl alone though. I've seen some negative reviews for it too giving the same critisism I give it.



I was introduced with Alters and then Gateways. Does that give any indication as to my disliking ?
