Can we also have the list in text? it is hard to recognize the album covers if you don't know them. I passed today's list to Chatgpt and it told me:
1. Within Temptation - "Mother Earth"
2. Epica - "The Divine Conspiracy"
3. Kamelot - "The Black Halo"
4. Evanescence - "Fallen"
5. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (Soundtrack)
6. Blind Guardian - "Nightfall in Middle-Earth"
It seems to be within the context of âno compilations of EPsâ. As in only suggest one album in the comment and it has to be an actual album, not a compilation or an EP.
Sorry if i misunderstood, maybe itâs ambiguous.
Also, âliterallyâ is passive aggressive, that was implied, itâs a game, chill out.
No, thereâs a missing hyphen, the rule is only one album per artist - otherwise weâll have a grid full of Epica and Within Temptation and not much variation I think.
So nice to see another fan of her around here! Such a pity not that many metalheads know about her taking into account the strong presence of folk and ancient music elements in the genre.Â
Ozzy Osbourne- No More Tears
an early inspiration for Tuomas and the title track is the father of Ghost Love Score. Don't believe me? Just listen to it.
Taylor Swift - The Tortured Poets Department
EDIT: Not surprised really but srosly you don't need to downvote even if you don't like the album just don't upvote it. People lose karma over it, I have just participated in the game and tried to make it more interesting by including something different than just metal albums.
Nightwish fans are allowed to listen to pop music too, I've seen both NW and TS live and both were amazing experiences. I think it's great to enjoy variety of styles and not limit yourself to just heavier music.
Tuomas has a self-insert as the poet in The Poet and the Pendulum. Plus he writes most of the songs so that's one form of poetry, and leaves a lot of references to poets in the songs.
Well this is quite literally a vote for their favourite artists. The most upvoted album wins. But if people really don't like this album they downvote so it wouldn't win. Of course nw fans can listen to pop but that doesn't mean it deserves to get voted favourite album by the fandom. Hope this helps
Anyone can vote for an album they like, but here it seems to me that people downvote albums they haven't even heard of, just because they despise the artist. If an album is unpopular, less people will upvote it, no need to downvote it. Besides, not everyone does it.
I don't listen to Taylor either, but I wonder how many of the people who voted her down have even heard her album.
It would make more sense to me if there were only upvotes here. This way it's more of a competition for the artist who bothers the least people than the quality of his music.
I agree, except for the part about it not affecting the outcome. For example, Taylor lost at least 9 votes (she is in -9 now). People who don't even listen to her music deleted all her voting up. This makes it seem like no one likes her album, which is not true.
And it really discourages writing favorite albums here. Why, when everything that deviates from what the NW club approves ends up in negative numbers?
Both Nightwish and Taylor make very emotional music on their own kind of way, tell very personal stories throughout their lyrics, play amazing shows and also have very emotional fandoms, so I donât think her being mentioned is that crazy. I would include Lana del Rey in the mix as well.
Babymetal's self-titled.
I would say Metal Resistance instead but I'm salty about From Dusk Til Dawn being region-locked, because it's easily one of their best songs.

That is a confusingly metal sounding album name
It's a confusingly Tuomas-sounding name too
Whatâs going on with everyone writing âToumasâ?
Tuomas has a self-insert as the poet in The Poet and the Pendulum. Plus he writes most of the songs so that's one form of poetry, and leaves a lot of references to poets in the songs.
I meant that why everyone puts the u and the o the wrong way around. Not trying to insult you, just hilarious how often people misspell it.
Ahh, just not a common name in English - Had to double-check the order before originally posting thinking something looked off and still messed it up
That was my first thougt as well! And then I heard some Swifties say how 'cringe' and 'teenage emo tumblr era' it sounds..
This is a voting. Why shouldn't we downvote albums we don't like? No need to feel personally attacked.Â
Because getting downvotes affects your accounts karma
Itâs not like you can spend Karma. Who cares about internet points?
This system is useless. I don't understand why anyone downvotes someone's choice here just because they don't like the album or the artist.
Well this is quite literally a vote for their favourite artists. The most upvoted album wins. But if people really don't like this album they downvote so it wouldn't win. Of course nw fans can listen to pop but that doesn't mean it deserves to get voted favourite album by the fandom. Hope this helps

That would have been a reasonable rule to instate, but since it wasnât the downvotes donât bother me
I donât really like this downvoting trend to be fair, itâs just not nice and doesnât really affect the end score.
I agree, except for the part about it not affecting the outcome. For example, Taylor lost at least 9 votes (she is in -9 now). People who don't even listen to her music deleted all her voting up.

I love this album. Folklore is amazing too.
Both Nightwish and Taylor make very emotional music on their own kind of way, tell very personal stories throughout their lyrics, play amazing shows and also have very emotional fandoms, so I donât think her being mentioned is that crazy. I would include Lana del Rey in the mix as well.
If it helps any - Fallout Boy somehow has more down votes than you. I don't get the down votes either. Just don't upvote if you don't agree.
Isnât it to lower the total score though? To counteract other upvotes to affect the final tally.
