Uhm... So yeah... Richard Jhereko Wombi seems to have abandoned the forums, but I've got some results to share still. In case he'll still be willing to cooperate, we should get this through at least until the year is over.
I'll also try to compile all the results in one topic, because let's be honest, we all forgot the rest of results (or what categories were already presented).

If anyone wants to do the BEAMAs for 2015, this should be the time to think about it.

-----
Anyhow...
BEST METAL ALBUM OF 2014:

The nominees are:

HEATHEN


Heathen by Thou

NUX VOMICA

Nux Vomica by Nux Vomica

PRAYER FOR TERRENE

Prayer For Terrene by Idylls

THE SERPENT & THE SPHERE

The Serpent & The Sphere by Agalloch

WANT

Want by Wreck And Reference

and the winner is…




Heathen by Thou



" That's what makes Heathen special – not that it's beautiful, but that it gets to be. Thou aren't locked into their sound, letting light filter into it the way a truly dissonant noise rock song might. Even with the most methodological approach to genre and performance, Thou can flick a switch and become something else." - The Quietus

Really great album. Wouldn't have been my choice, but I can't necessarily argue with it. I'm just happy Nux Vomica was even nominated.

If we actually like do it and commit to doing it efficiently, it could actually work. I think it's a fun thing to do as long as we actually do it. I'd be willing to help/do whatever is needed.

I want to do it, but as you can imagine it's a lot of work. And last year we had trouble getting enough users to fill out the polls, and I can't imagine it would be any easier this time around.

Also, are you still willing to help out with this year's presentation? At this point I can do it alone, but if we want to get it over as fast as possible, I'd be happy to have someone help.

Heathen was a record that I appreciated more than I actually enjoyed, unlike respective releases from Idylls and Nux Vomica that were nominated (the latter being my choice of these five), both of which were fantastic. I found the Agalloch record kinda bland, even if it did what it set out to very competently, and I haven't listened to the last nomination. But yeah, not a bad choice, even if it wouldn't have been mine. (Disappointed that neither Bong's Stoner Rock nor Conan's Blood Eagle got to this stage.)

You probably should. It's my favorite album here (and very close to being my favorite album of last year), even if it's maybe not "metal".

Heathen is a great choice though, definitely deserving and likely the best album to win best metal category in BEAMA history, which seems to always feature duds.
