Controversial opinions on metal

[The Ozzman]

agreed.

Yeah. At the bottom of my list for Priest.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Painkiller is their second best, after SWOD. Every track is killer.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Same goes for Stained Class.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Invaders and Savage are solid but unspectacular.

 

[The Butt]

Painkiller is their second best, after SWOD. Every track is killer.

I wouldn't go that far (Rocka Rolla is their second best behind SWOD, imo) but yeah Painkiller is rockin', and pretty high up on the list.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Invaders and Savage are solid but unspectacular.

Savage is in my top ~3 for that album. One of the most blatantly Maiden/USPM-influencing songs, musically summons a more 80s escapism while retaining the political conviction they had in those days. That chorus is easily among Halford's most powerful moments.

Invaders, I can sort of agree but it's so damn catchy and was my first favorite from the album. I still couldn't rate it lower than an 8/10 or so.

 

[Krow]

Dude i love Priest but a Rocka Rolla is shit.

 

[The Butt]

It may suffer from teething pains for the band, its not exactly very mature or consistent but it plain-out rocks. I enjoy it greatly.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Rocka Rolla is a little uneven (especially the Winter suite) but it's a solid listen. I love Cheater and the title track. Run of the Mill is a gorgeous song with a stunning crescendo. I really can't see how a Priest fan could call that record "shit".

 

[HamburgerBoy]

We are
Never
SAAAAAAAAATISFIIIIIIEEEED

Rocka Rolla is such a great album.

 

[The Butt]

Me and HB agree on something?

I feel unclean.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Run of the Mill is one of my favorite Priest songs but yeah, the rest of the album is indeed shit.

 

[MoSeN]

Rocka Rolla is my favorite. Simply beautiful.. and I'm not even a Priest fan.

 

[Cythraul]

I don't know how controversial this is, but...

The Swan Road is easily the best Drudkh album.

 

[no country for old wainds]

oh hey look it's cythraul

the best drudkh album is whichever one's shortest

 

[The Butt]

^ that's gay.

Best Drudkh album is Blood in Our Wells IMO.

 

[KafkaX]

The Swan Road is easily the weakest for their first 4 albums.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

oh hey look it's cythraul

the best drudkh album is whichever one's shortest

I guess if they ever release an album about your penis, that would be their magnum opus.
