Best Album of 1984

[Carcassian]

ince we already have a poll for best thrash album of 1985, I copied the idea and refined it for 1984. Plus a super snazzy poll type affair.

 

[Cancer of the Soul]

Sweet. I'll go with Omen - Battle Cry

 

[Carcassian]

Alas, I didnt put it in the poll, sorry.

 

[Hell Mike]

Ride the Lightning
Ace competition though

 

[Carcassian]

Morbid Tales for me. Yes, 1984 was a good year, wasn't it?

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

RIDE THE LIGHTNING!

 

[Lyle]

morbid tales or psalm 9 or ride the lightning idk (also lmao roudness)

 

[Krakatau]

Powerslave, but I would've voted for Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force debut album if it were on there.

1984 was the best year for metal imo.

 

[Death Animal]

I vote W.A.S.P-S/T

 

[skeptik]

MERCYFUL FATE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Stormwatch]

I'm afraid there is only one possible choice, no band could match Maiden back in those days. Powerslave is flawless.

 

[Krilons Resa]

1984 was an amazing year indeed but the best album of '84 isn;t even on the fucking list.


Cirith Ungol - King Of The Dead

 

[IOfTheStorm]

(also lmao roudness)

also lmao Lyle

On topic:
Where is "Hail To England"? This is the best, tied with "Ample Destruction" (metal-est metal album ever.. or something) and Queensryche's "The Warning" comes close at the second place.

 

[Zephyrus]

Ride the Lightning, ride it long and hard.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Toughy, but Metallic gets my vote.

 

[Krilons Resa]

out of those listed...powerslave easily.


Yeah, Hail To England isnt there either...that could be #3.

w/e

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

Scorpions!

 

[Cancer of the Soul]

Alas, I didnt put it (Omen - Battle Cry) in the poll, sorry.

Oops, I didn't see the poll 'til now. Since my second choice would have been Night On Brocken I'll go with that one. \m/

 

[Thoth-Amon]

It's a tie for me between Ride the Lightning and Don't Break the Oath. But I'll vote for RTL anyway...

 

[Wires & Waves]

black flag - my war
