So did you only count the ones that had two or more nominations? I don't see the Jonas Munk album on your list

Jonas Munk (Manual) - Minimum Resistance has 1 nomination. (toaoaoad)
Full list is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15K9YXfSWbGORA6juBPnx9u0DDti2P8geEMhnEg6BoNU/edit#gid=0

For the years 2011 to 2021 I use WATMM as a base for my big-ass list of music:

CN - NU (2014) is the best album from that whole period though so all of these lists are void

Sorry

Mods please delete thread

It's in the top 5 of 2014 according to WATMM. I love that album too.

What's with all the deftones hate? Just because you don't like something doesn't mean you need to be a prick about it

Oh wait this is watmm 

Short Answer: It's the internet.
But I feel like WATMM is still quite well moderated in that regard.
Sure there are some new trolls, haters, shit-posts and even heavy insults from time to time but they tend to get moderated / banned, as one can always report replies or ignore users.
I don't think rudeness online in general will ever really change. That's the nature of the beast.

In this case here I think the comments were quite tame. (no direct insults to you?)

Thanks for your feedback. I rescind my comment and mean no actual offense/personal attack towards the people who were hating on the album. Just seemed like there was a big clump of it all in one place, and seemed a little excessive. I notice this type of thing around here from time to time and find it a bit irksome, especially as most of us are in our thirties or older and ought to be a lil more mature. It is a public forum after all and I think some longtimers still treat it like a private club.

Anyway, as you were.

Compared to the rest of the internet these days I'd say this forum is surprisingly mature and polite. Not perfect but way better than average.
