Oh, and some albums are starting to fall by the wayside, finally. There are no more albums in the Top 50 with 1 vote.

Dont worry, I'm slowly itching my way towards the goal. For today it's:

The same album was released two times with different recordings of the same compositions.

I had to draw a line somewhere. Damnation is actually the album that got me into Opeth, so it got a spot. I could actually include Deliverance, but decided not to.

Re: Traversing.nets Top 50 Albums of the Decade Voting Thread

That's the album that got me into Opeth too.
