I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

Sandman being the #1 seed is insane.  It's one of the most blah songs in the band's catalog.

I'm more puzzled by Through the Never being second.

It's surprising because there are multiple songs on the album that seem to be more highly regarded, but I assume that had a lot to do with match-ups during the regular season.  If TTN went up against mostly songs from the Loads and St. Anger, then it basically won by default.

I know in the end it won't matter too much probably, but I accidentally voted Sandman, while I intended NEM.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:
