FEAR, EMPTINESS, DECIBEL: TOP FIVE TOTALLY REASONABLE REACTIONS TO DECIBEL‘S TOP 40 ALBUMS OF THE YEAR LIST
Before there were blogs there were these things called magazines, and the only metal magazine we still get excited about reading every month is Decibel. Here’s managing editor Andrew Bonazelli to get in on today’s needless-listing fun…
“Well, someone didn’t like Wolves in the Throne Room.”
“Somewhat surprised that neither Batillus nor Hull cracked the top 40, while Junius—a meh-ish post-something-or-other band w/ a Coldplay vocal influence—did.”
UNDERGROUND ELITIST DOUCHEBAGS
“well im glad to see decible is still totally clueless and of total shit taste as they should be. stay out of the trve vndergrovnd!”
PEOPLE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT LULU
“Over the half the bands on that list won’t even be around in 5 years. Horrible.”
PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY BUY RECORDS
“Glad to see Yob, 40 Watt Sun, Tombs, Subrosa, and Graveyard among a few others getting some love.”
