I'm not really complaining that Death Is This Communion doesn't belong on the list, there are definitely stonery / sludgy elements throughout the album, it's just got a lot of other **** going for it too, a lot of styles in there. And a lot of those other styles don't really click with me. It's a fantastic album, great songwriting, great production, and great musicianship, I'm just having a hard time settling on a suitable way to judge these lists. We're voting for best Sludge / Stoner album, so I'm trying to base my votes on which albums make the best use of Sludgy / Stonery styles, how the album performs within its genre. I don't think I'd have any problem placing High On Fire above several of these bands if it were simply a "Best Overall Musicianship" poll.

**** man I don't know, maybe it'll grow on me by the end of the division.
