Alter Bridge - Blackbird - 2007

Symphony X - V: The New Mythology Suite - 2000
Symphony X - Paradise Lost - 2007
Seventh Wonder - Mercy Falls - 2008

I could go for more variety but honestly I feel like I'd just be removing albums for the sake of them being by the same artists.

Alright guys going to run this phase for another three days (so its ends Friday night US time...if I'm not mistaken) which will leave me some time over the weekend to collate and start the elimination phase, where the slanging matches begin (I hope slanging isn't too Aussie for everyone :p)

So, if you want to change your nominations please do so by then, and if you want to nominate by all means please do!

Oh, and why am I the only one who rates Sound Awake as a top 10 for the decade? That makes me :sadpanda:
