Haha YES! I love Andols’
hehe And Chris’ “Andols – The Rocking Chair” lol
Good to see Mark and Matt rocking the Whitechapel :]
You’re all gay for not mentioning Black Ice.
Yeewwww go Matt
Opeth+Gojira+Meshuggah what a legend
The way of all flesh was the album of the year hands down
Your new album will be the Album of 09 no doubt about it
Wow. Surprised to see some names in there and some absent. Surprised by your taste in music Mark. Doubt you read the comments but these are some pretty underground/under the radar albums that I’m pretty sure most of you would dig:
Cynic – Traced in Air (technical progmetal with death influences)
Mirrorthrone – Gangrene (melodic black with neoclassical influences)
Scar Symmetry – Holographic Universe (melo death)
Textures – Silhouettes (polyrhythmic metal madness)
The Faceless – Planetary Duality (pretty unique sounding death)
There’s a US tour coming up with Meshuggah, Cynic and The Faceless. If you can go, fucking take the chance!
wtf mark’s list looks more like wut jim’s list wud look like…..da…..who would of thought………….
I’m pretty glad seeing Opeth, NIN, Messhugah, Whitechapel, Gojira and Aborted in yoiur lists, but what about Misery Index “Traitors”??? By the way, Andols, are you into any kinf of experimental drugs?? I’d love you shared’em with all of us!!!
no votes for the new haunted album, are you guys got bits of your brains missing?
Slipknot, The Game? What the hell? That means you don’t like your own music because it’s totaly different from The Game or some others.
ggg you are an idiot
i think it totally makes sense that guys in chimaira listen to diverse music.
that’s what makes them unique.
So glad that death magnetic is in there, such a fucking good album!!!
Was that really Jim Lamarca that left that comment?
where the fuck is Jims and Robs list?
I keep hearing about Whitechapel…are they really that good?
Check out All Shall Perish- Awaken the Dreamers, fuking sic album by a badass band
COMPANY BAND!!!!!! OH YEAH!!!!!
Awsome list but its sad, Ur a fucking metal band n u’ve got that rap shit on there. wtf man?
it’s sad you’re so closed minded.
I don’t think it’s about being closed minded. There is good and bad shit out there. And Kanye West? Fuck man, he’s a a bad singer, not to mention a fucking douche. I see only a few bands that I like, and a whole bunch that are crap. Thankfully these awful bands don’t seem to influence your music that much, otherwise you guys would sound terrible. But then again, music is subjective. Go finish the record already, so we can give you our hard earned money!
lil wayne and kanye west make me want to listen to chimaira. is all makes sense! Thats how he’s doing this! Mark listens to crappy music all day and that gets him really pissed off. Mark you are a genius. Hey I got some inspiration for the new cd… check out Jay-z, puff daddy, and the insane clown posse
@ Geert
Traced in Air is my choice for best of the year. Just brilliant, worth having to wait 15 years for.
MESHUGGAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
obZen is a masterpiece.
Cuckold…
