    Here is the latest installment of Album of The Week. Here's the breakdown of the votes. As usual, only albums with more than one vote are listed.

    Between The Buried and Me - Colors - 5
    Deicide - Legion - 5
    Therapy - Troublegum - 8

    So the winner this week is Therapy's 1994 album Troublegum. It's difficult for me to quantify just how good this album is. It truly captured the band at their creative peak. Most of the songs on this album are absolutely fantastic. Dark, melodic, heavy yet restrained. Fyfe Ewing deserves a lot of credit for his drumming on this album. Like Jimmy Chamberlain, you can often pick out his work in a song you may not recognise which is no mean feat for a drummer!

    I couldn't decide whether to put up Die Laughing or Trigger Inside as the video so I put them both up :).

    Cracking album though. Saw them a few times on the Troublegum tour, and it really was them at their peak, both live and in the studio.

    incidentally that :mad: was directed at both the fact that IT didnt win again this week, and that the thread has been closed so it can now never win.

    I didnt notice the second part until after I posted.

    That second song in the OP is pretty cool, cant help but nod your head to it. Good stuff. Malice, please re-consider opening the album of the week thread.
