Not really, but I will anyway since you asked nicely While we're on the subject of COTD eligibility, it'd be great if 4 more people could rate my [url= chart. That'd be awesome.

Disregard any mention of convention. Every album here is a winner, and I love Another Green World in the top spot

Nice. If this had some key metal picks, it would be perfect.
