Hmm weird, I had read that "The Fathomless Mastery" wasn't half as good as the awesome "Nightmares Made Flesh." Go figure, conspiracy at hand maybe??

I don't know... I've not heard much of this band, just Nightmares Made Flesh.

"The Fathomless Mastery" was good and listenable, but the EP they released before that blew it out of the water. It's weird that it would be voted #1, I would have thought that would go more towards the new Opeth, Septicflesh, or Ihsahn, as all three of those were leagues ahead of the latest Bloodbath.

surely cynic's traced in air or opeth's watershed were better albums than bloodbaths

Bloobath's album was really food imo, however Watershed was way better.

Go Bloodbath! I haven't heard their latest disc, but these guys deserve every bit of recognition they get, in my opinion.

Now playing: Gorgoroth - "Open the Gates"
