Six Feet Under
The fact that "I'll kill all the haters" is a line from Six Feet Under makes me want to put my fist through a wall.
I probably would but come on, man. This is the metal genre. The genre in which the corpse of a man who blew his brains out is an album cover. I'm sure an album cover of a guy punching a hole in a wall already exists somewhere.Do it and I'll take a photo for an album cover.

Their run from Dimension Hatröss up to and including The Outer Limits is one of the hottest streaks in metal. Easily on par with Sabbath's first 6.Voïvod definitely had some flaws here and there, but they have a pretty savage discography considering how often they reinvented themselves.
I'd include Power Windows too although I can see that being a bit contentious. Actually I think Rush's output as a whole ranges from soild to excellent, I don't think they've ever released an album I'd call outright bad.Rush: Released 8 straight great albums from Carress of Steel to Grace Under Pressure. I can't think of any other band who stayed that strong for so many albums.

Both Fly by Night and Power Windows are borderline to me. Probably like an 8.5/10. Both have tons of great stuff, but a few cuts that don't sit right with me.
There are a few Rush albums I'm not crazy about.
-The debut is fairly pedestrian, save the final track.
-Hold Your Fire is kind of lame, though a number of tracks have grown on me over time. Still, the weakest Rush album. And "Tai Shan" is Disney quality.
-Presto is pedestrian, save the "The Pass"
-The production on Vapor Trails is crap, though I have yet to hear the much needed remaster.
Everything else by them is at least a 8/10.
Hold Your Fire is at least a 7/10 (but yes, Tai Shan is garbage)
Presto is really good
Vapor Trails is their best album of the 2000s
The debut is a damn good 70s rock album
Nothing Rush did is below a 7/10
I'm not gonna go to war over any of your positions. I wouldn't give any of their albums a grade lower than 6/10, so we're probably not far off on most of these albums.
I am mildly surprised that you prefer Vapor Trails to Snakes and Arrows, and Clockwork Angels. I find the later to have far more engaging compositions.
