You win, I win

Below are the results of the voting for albums to review in November. Gaza tied with Epica for the most, so I will review both. Watching the votes unfold was interesting. It seems there was some power of suggestion going on. People didn’t vote for certain names until they saw others mention those names. Perhaps people saved votes for likely winners instead of wasting them on outliers. Whatever the case, the results surprised me. Assuming that each vote represents the opinion of many, Krallice have much more buzz than I thought. An EP by a non-touring band (Coalesce) is somehow quite anticipated. Finally, people seem ready to forgive Nile for the bland Ithyphallic. It should be an interesting month here.
