Roadrunner Blogs | The Contentious Consensus

Good lists.. and I'd agree with a few of them. Seems like most other comments try to argue albums/artists that, in my mind, were very successful. You want to find underrated albums, you gotta go deep!!! In no special order:

Realm: Suiciety
Carcass: Swansong
Tourniquet: Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance
Annacrusis: Screams and Whispers
Brutality: In Mourning
Wrathchild America: 3-D
Brutal Truth: Extreme Conditions....
Confessor: Condemned
Forbidden: Twisted Into Form
King Diamond: Conspiracy
Hypocrisy: Hyprocrisy
Sentenced: North From Here
Believer: Dimensions
Vio-Lence: Opressing the Masses
Warrior Soul: Last Decade Dead Century

I could go on.. but my brain hurts!!
