I've listened to plenty. Trust me, those discs are on my list, just one of those situations where I haven't gotten around to purchasing them yet.

Blasphemy! The first six Sabbath albums are all damn near perfect in my book. Heaven and Hell is too, but the other Dio albums I felt were inconsistent. I'm trying to get some of the Martin and Gillan albums.

I get your point, but there are some universally hailed classics...the ones that get on EVERY top 10 list, inducted into Decibel Hall of Fame, the ones where bands make a killing playing that album and only that album live, etc....your Rust in Peaces, Left Hand Paths, and Reign in Bloods. For example, I would not consider any non-Ozzy/Dio Sabbath albums to fit that criteria, although they are very good records.
I don't own any Meat Loaf albums. But the accumulated amount of time I've spent on Youtube watching Meatloaf music videos is terrifying.

Eh, its in the eye of the beholder.
I mean, for me personally, I would take South of Heaven over RIB ANY day of the week.
I also think as a full album, Motorhead's Another PErfect Day is one of their top 5 greatest albums, where many critics (IE - your Decibel, or whatever crap hipster rag) would say it was a failure because it had some wimp from Thin Lizzy play on it instead of Eddie Clarke.

A few years ago I decided to give them another chance and got "Paranoid." I listened to it one and a half times. It felt like a thousand! I'll be happy if I never hear that band again.

Anyone who hasn't gotten into Bathory is really missing out. Don't worry about Angra, Stratovarius or anyone else until you have "Blood Fire Death" and "Twilight of the Gods."

I was just listening to Angra last night. One of my favorite bands.

I'm not knocking Strato's impact or influence on the prog/power scene, but I'd part with my entire Stratovarius collection before I'd let one of my Angra CDs go.

I can't say I really care one way or another.
I have tried Angra on two separate ocassions. Just didn't do anything for me.
One was "Fireworks" which Bob always tells me isn't one of their best.
Though in 2013 I can't say I have a burning desire to try to reconnect with a power metal band from the 90s I may not be terribly familiar with.
I would rather go to the 70s!!!!

Stratovarius is a remarkably important band for me -- they were the reason I attended my first ProgPower, which was my very first Metal show. But I quickly grew out of them. Not a bad band by any means, just not for me.
