don't know a couple, don't like some of those (or better said not my cup of tea) but Evergrey's album is amazing so it got my vote. |

I voted for Blackwater Park, one of my top 20 albums of all time. Out of albums on that list, I also really like In Search of Truth, Karma, Carnival Diablos, Lateralus and Mutter. Favorites that aren't in the poll: Falconer - S/T Therion - Secret of the Runes Steel Attack - Fall Into Madness Elvenking - Heathenreel

Wages Of Sin. That was such a revelation when I first heard it. It sounded like Heartwork except it was good! Hymns would be second on that list for me. I didn't buy it at the time, since good stuff like that is damn hard to find in NZ, but I got it a couple of years back. Intense, heavy, and thought provoking as ever. The rest of the list is a bit of a downer though. There's a couple of decent albums, like the Neurosis one, and Toxicity, which I skipped at the time but now appreciate. God Hates Us All is my least favourite Slayer album, and The World Needs A Hero is completely unremarkable. Most of the rest are bands I've never really got into, or avoided on purpose. In 2001 I was living in South Korea, and I was basically buying up cheap replacements for stuff I already had on tape, so I didn't get a lot of new stuff that year anyway. |

I'm going to have to give my vote to Lateralus, but I have many favorites in this list. ------------- If I say fuck two more times that's forty-six fucks in this fucked up rhyme |

It´s between Opeth and Neurosis for me. I´ve voted the former. ------------- http://www.lyngby-boldklub.dk/" rel="nofollow - Forever TRUE - Forever BLUE! https://rateyourmusic.com/~UMUR" rel="nofollow - UMUR on RYM |

Voted for System of a Down. I also like Tool, Rammstein, Gamma Ray, Annihilator, Kamelot somewhat like Wages of Sin. And I'm missing quite a few favorites from 2001: I am missing the German triple thrash treat (M-16, Violent Revolution, The Antichrist), Absu's Tara and of course Bolt Thrower's Honour Valour Pride. Entombed - Morning Star (their best after the first three). I am also missing Ark - Burn the Sun, Beyond Twilight - The Devil's Hall of Fame and Devin Townsend's Terria. Excellent to good power metal albums: Destiny's End Transition, Onward's Evermoving, Jag Panzer's Mechanized Warfare, Brainstorm's Metus Mortis, Lost Horizon, Falconer and Avantasia. Not a bad year really. ------------- 42 |

I'd forgotten a lot of those too Vic. Maybe not such a bad year after all! I just wasn't paying attention.  |

This is actually a tough one for me as I have several albums in the options that I've rated highly. I guess it would come down to between Opeth and Iced Earth but right now I really couldn't pick. Others: Avantasia - The Metal Opera Elvenking - Heathenreel Hollenthon - With Vilest of Worms to Dwell ------------- Earn Money Online (NOT a scam): https://premium.gg2u.org?referrer=adg211288" rel="nofollow - GG2U https://adamsfilmcorner.quora.com/" rel="nofollow - Adam's Film Corner on Quora |

Believe it or not i voted for Buckethead. ALthough there are MANY great albums on this list (good job compiling this one), Somewhere Over THe Slaughterhouse was an album i found life changing in a cross pollinating genre type of way that still resonates with me to the present. Toxiticy is a close second as that was life changing as well but not as so as BH (explains why i wasted my time reviewing over 100 plus albums!) -------------
