Sure, but in no way shape or form can it **** with Powerslave. I honestly can't think of any album that would have had a fair shot against it. What the **** is happening now, considering that the only person to vote for that album before the last couple rounds was William, is beyond me.

Mercyful Fate is not an extreme metal band so why would I put them up against extreme metal bands? Musically they're closer to trad metal than anything else.
