Let the bitching begin.

I had ABSOLUTELY no clue the Testament album was doing as well as it did.

Yeah, it was handsomely in fourth. I personally thought it sucked, save for a couple of songs.

And Fleet Foxes is WAY too low :D

If you don't mind, I'd like to see the point totals for each album, including the honorable mentions.

Yeah, I'm pretty surprised by Testament.

I also think it's ridiculous that Amon Amarth got into second place. Bah.

I'm surprised Lil Wayne didn't make it.

This is the first year we've done this that I didn't like a single album in the top 6.

I do not endorse this top 10 :D

That being said thanks again Brad for taking the time to put together and do this thankless task yet again another year, keep it up :cool:
