I have a feeling that Johan will give Mullet the thumbs up too.

I admire Messiah for sticking to a list with stuff he is into at the moment, rather than stuff he has really been into before. However at the same time, I'm a bit disappointed he hasn't included certain doom bands he was into which would have swung it for me, and he knows which bands I am talking about. Candlemass stick out for me, as does Chelsea Wolfe, Theatre of Tragedy and Third and the Mortal. Therion are good from what I've heard, but I prefer other symphonic metal bands. The most interesting discovery out of all of them for me is actually Bohren & der Club of Gore..

I like Nirvana, and Mötley Crüe's self titled "grunge" album of 1994 is hugely underrated. It's one of my favourite metal albums of the 90s. Meaty fuck-off riffs galore. I actually don't mind some Eminem stuff.

However my vote has to go to Znep, solely because he picked two of my favourite bands here: Ghost and Symphony X. Dimmu Borgir, Anthrax and Voivod are enjoyable, and Ministry is something I need to listen to more of..

Says he who crossed out Ghost, one of the best bands of the last decade .

Nope, even my dad was impressed. And as a 60s/70s rock fan, he takes some impressing..

In retrospect it might have been better to keep the draft at 15 instead of pushing to 20, at least it would have freed a couple more days to listen to some stuff.
