"Blessed is he who learns how to engage in inquiry, with no impulse to hurt his countrymen or to pursue wrongful actions, but perceives the order of the immortal and ageless nature, how it is structured."
Euripides
"This is the disease of curiosity. It is this which drives to try and discover the secrets of nature, those secrets which are beyond our understanding, which avails us nothing and which man should not wish to learn."
Augustine
So for you all those songs dont have even the slightest musical value for you ? dahhhh. Anyway you cannot add 0 Points so Ill add 1 to each.Anyway you almost screwed the reasonable votes of the others. If you have any intention in doing this again pls. offer us a reasoning!
Nightwish - Slow Love Slow : 7/36 Nightwish playing lounge-style cool jazz; very mellow, with great brushed snare drumwork and a surprisingly convincing vocal performance by Anette; the fantastical atmosphere of the album is maintained by some swirling piano until the rest of the orchestra comes back towards the end along with the guitars.
Agalloch - Sowilo Rune : 8/60 From "The White" LP and its white as it gets only with a tender touch of dark whispering of John Haughm; Agalloch abandons its metal roots almost entirely, embracing the neoclassical and the dark folk; pearly-sounding, very clean piano touches
Rhapsody - The Magic of the Wizard's Dream : 7/62 No longer a master in the film industry, Mr. Lee is now a king in the Power Metal world ; this showcases the less known talent of guest narrator Christopher Lee, who in addition to being an actor and a multi-linguist, is an accomplished bass with a background in opera; of all the voice ranges out there, the bass is probably the least Power Metal friendly, and that is the principle reason for the criticisms of this EP; his voice is loud, powerful, and although Fabio’s showy tenor range obviously rises above the musical mass behind him, Lee’s voice is so deep and husky that it actually dwarf’s Fabio’s during the chorus.
System of a Down - Arto : 6/24 a tribal stuff; is S.O.A.D a metal band ? why is this track called "Arto" ? Isnt that an Armenian name ? could be obvious since SOAD is formed by Armenians; anyway what this has to do with the tribal stuff?
Skyforger - Long I Heard, Now I See : 7/40 Im struggling to resist not singing along; " daina" you say? we have almost the same word for these lyrical creations "doina" or even "daină" (ah). The word origin may come from Dacian in relation with the sancscrite "dhaina"
Dream Theater - Through Her Eyes : NO VOTE/42
Metallica - Whiskey in a Jar : 7/39The Thin Lizzy version stunk and this one is no better; they could've picked a better Lizzy tune to cover
Satanic Warmaster - Utug-Hul [Nachzehrer] : 7/44 being the final cut on the album, it's as if you're left to ponder the cruelty which has just surpassed and allowed a three minute pause to consider everything but beg for more; it musically has a beautiful sadness to it which you can't escape
Fear Factory - Cloning Technology : 8/39 mindblowing fury of electronica and metal that rages like a dark horse of the apocalypse; later in the song there is an 'electronic' drum solo that is very mesmerizing; this song could hold its own in a techno rave party.
Blind Guardian - The Bard's Song : 6/49 A calm song based on Tolkien's fantasy world of Middle-Earth; the atmosphere and the feeling makes you dream you were living in that world of myths

good written arguments
a joy to read
The Great Conflicts 872-1071
public alpha II + patch 001 09.03.2021
GoRR 0.1 beta - Glory of Rome Remastered
- Nightwish - Slow Love Slow: 5/40
I never fancied Nightwish, and this song is meh.
- Agalloch - Sowilo Rune: 9/62
It awes me how relaxing and incredible good is this song!
- Rhapsody - The Magic of the Wizard's Dream: NO VOTE/62
I can't speak about my own song, it would be unethical.
- System of a Down - Arto: 3/23
What the... Like Sturm said, is this band even metal? haha
- Skyforger - Long I Heard, Now I See: 2/35
This is annoying. -.-
- Dream Theater - Through Her Eyes: 7/48
Well, this sounds good enough.
- Metallica - Whiskey in the Jar: 1/39
I really, really, really dislike any version of this song that isn't irish folk. Goes for Thin Lizzy as well.
- Satanic Warmaster - Utug-Hul [Nachzehrer]: 6/42
It has a good melody, but is too repetitive and not much original.
- Fear Factory - Cloning Technology: 8/45
Seems good, I've never thought about this, electronic music mixed with metal.
- Blind Guardian - The Bard`s Song: 10/54
This is really, really, really!! Bloody damn good!
I also ignored every vote from Timoleon of Korinthos, he is clearly mocking, flaming and ruining our little contest, plus, he did not even take part in the first phase, submitting a video/song.
So I we have a draw and as I already won last round and plus I don't have any ideas for themes, I leave this great victory to God.
