Ancalagon the Black Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Montilar, you have a very "lite" definition of "metal." What, no Slayer on anyone's list? ("Slayer" is particularly amusing in an Aussie accent: SLAAEEYAH!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander PK Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 My favorite of all time is Master of Puppets. That one set the standard, no question. Reign in Blood is a close second. My 10 best in no particular order is: 1. Metallica: Master of Puppets 2. Metallica: Ride the Lightning 3. Judas Priest: Painkiller 4. Anthrax: Among the Living 5. Anthrax: We've come for you all 6. Slayer: Reign in Blood 7. Testament: The New Order 8. Pantera: Vulgar Display of Power 9. Iron Maiden: Powerslave 10. Shadows Fall: The Art of Balance (gotta give some props to the new guys, this band kicks serious arse!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander PK Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Montilar, I'm not sure that some of those qualify as Metal. (This reminds me of that argument I used to have on the school bus back in Middle School, lol) Dio, Priest, and Metallica I agree, but Nazareth?? LOVE HUUUUUURRRRRRTSSS! LOVE HURRRRRRRTTTTTSSSS!!! :shot: Just messing with ya bro! :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. S Posted April 16, 2004 Author Share Posted April 16, 2004 Originally posted by OrangeSkin I think you forgot to mention "Chocolate Starfish & the Hot Dog Flavored Water" by the metal legends Limp Bizkit. haha, metal legends, just like korn and slipknot. Montilar, a lot of bands you have listed seem more hair band hard rock, like the Scorpions, Kiss, Def Lepperd, Guns N Roses. I know its a debate on whether 80's rock bands were metal. I like all those bands, but I wouldnt call them metal, i consider them just 80's rock or hair bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 THanks for mentioning Reign in Blood. It's my favorite Slayer album. However, I am a fan of "God hates us all." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJWatson3 Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 i don't listen to much metal, but some of the best albums i have ever heard are "Master of Puppets" and "Ride the Lightning" but the first i ever heard was "Kill 'Em All" which i still love. and why no Sepultura? South American metal doesn't count? follow this link to hear them: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/artists/Sepultura/music.asp and while i don't really consider them metal (moreso than deep purple or nazareth), how about some love for FAITH NO MORE!!!!

Britskin Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Interesting, when I saw the thread title I instantly thought Master Of Puppets and then And Justice For All a close second(the Black album not for behind). Reading the replies I find it interesting that there have been a few mentions for Puppets and the Black album but none for Justice. I was just wondering what you guys think of that album?

Hog Fever Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I’m going to cheat a little bit here. I decided I need to narrow things down to albums that came out before 1990 and those that were released after 1990. There was a definite change around 1990 or so in metal IMO. Pre 1990: Metallica – Ride the Lightning Exodus – Bonded by Blood Racer X – Extreme Volume Iron Maiden – Piece of Mind Tony McAlpine – Edge of Insanity/Maximum Security Anthrax – Among the Living Judas Priest – Screaming for Vengeance Queensryche – Operation Mindcrime Slayer – Reign Blood Mercyful Fate – Melissa Post 1990: Death – Symbolic/Individual Thought Patterns In Flames – Whoracle/Colony Soilwork – Figure Number Five Pantera – Vulgar Display of Power Megadeth – Rust in Peace At the Gates – Slaughter of the Soul Entombed – Wolverine Blues Bruce Dickinson – The Chemical Wedding Dream Theater – Images and Words Opeth – Blackwater Park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackman Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 In no specific order. Metallica - Ride the Lightning, better with original name Metal up your A$$!, Kill’em All, Master Of Puppets And Justice For All last album before they sold out! SOD -Speak English Or Die There live version of Reign in Blood is awesome. Slayer – Reign in Blood. Megadeth – Peace Sells … But Who’s Buying? Black Sabbath – Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Sabotage, Master of Reality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
