Hope Mordwyr doesn't mind me robbing this idea from him. I saw he was doing this for his own albums in the "What are you listening to" thread, and thought it was an interesting idea, so I'm making a thread to sort of expand the idea.

And the idea? Well it's incredibly simple, and will take almost no effort. Someone posts an album. Any genre you like. Even your own if you want. Everyone then votes it a Yes, No, Maybe etc and the more votes it gets for Yes, the better its chances of making it into the roll of honour as it were. If you haven't heard the album you can Vote n/a, if you're listening to or intend listening to it, maybe put Pending.

You can comment a bit on the album if you like, and you can use things like Hell Yeah or A Thousand Times NO but your basic vote must be some version of yes, no or maybe. Anyone can post an album at any time, and once the votes for an album have reached a higher balance on one side or the other it will be removed from voting and placed on the roll of honour.

The List so far (albums that have made the Roll of Honour will be coloured in; not sure what colour yet)
Bergtatt - Et Eeventyr i 5 Capitler -- Ulver Yes: 4 No: 1 N/A: 1
The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway --- Genesis Yes:3 No: 2
Love Over Gold --- Dire Straits Yes 1: No:0
Loveless --- My Bloody Valentine Yes: 5 No: 1
Tragic Kingdom --- No Doubt Yes: 3 No: 1
Metal Machine Music --- Lou Reed Yes: 3 No: 1

Animals --- Pink Floyd Yes 5 No: 0

Melody's Echo Chamber --- Melody's Echo Chamber Yes: 4 No: 0
Tubular Bells --- Mike Oldfield Yes: 2 No: 1
Fashion Nugget --- Cake Yes: 0 No: 1
The Presidents of the United States of America --- The Presidents of the United States of America (No Votes Yet)
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy --- Kanye West Yes: 2 No: 2
Burn, Piano Island, Burn --- The Blood Brothers

So, with all that in mind, what say you?
