BWBK's Top 30 Metal Blade Releases

[Jasonic]

Here would be my top 10:
Arch / Matheos-Sympathetic Resonance
Brainstorm-Soul Temptation
Fates Warning-No Exit
Fates Warning-Parallels
Helstar-Nosferatu
King Diamond-The Puppet Master
Omen-Battle Cry
Riot-Inishmore
Trouble-Psalm 9
Trouble-The Skull

I would have put the Pentagram on there as they are one of my fav bands but unfortunately, while a good album, it certainly is not their best.

 

[Creeps]

Here's my 10 in no particular order. I own these (and many more from the label) but these 10 have gotten the most plays from what I have purchased.


1. Hallows Eve - Death And Insanity
2. Fates Warning - No Exit
3. DRI – Four Of A Kind
4. Armored Saint – Symbol of Salvation
5. Tourniquet – Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance
6. Mercyful Fate – In The Shadows
7. Grip Inc. - Power Of Inner Strength
8. Lizzy Borden – Deal With The Devil
9. Brainstorm – Soul Temptation
10. Gwar – Scumdogs of the Universe

Man I would not know what to do with this, Metal Blade put out such great stuff in the 80s. I'll give it a shot.
And the whole Metal Massacre series was awesome just to bad a lot of those bands never did full lengths.

This talk makes me realize that I really need to get some LIZZY BORDEN.
One of MANY MANY bands where I have liked everything I have heard but for whatever reason never picked anything up yet by.

I think the reissue of Master of Disguise is still available fairly cheap. If that doesn't do it, nothing will.
