Controversial opinions on metal

[EspaDa]

Mystification is a great album. Other than that, the rest you mentioned is rather forgettable, but Metal album contains Cage of Mirrors track, which is fucking awesome.

 

[rms]

Dude The Deluge is just as awesome as the other 3 main ones in the 80s..

Never really gave Out Of The Abyss a fair shot so I cant comment on that, but Metal, Invasion, The Deluge and Mystification are fucking stellar records.

First 6 albums are gems, 3rd 4th and 5th are their grails, 3rd is their masterpiece and the rest are all ranging between great and decent.

 

[no country for old wainds]

CRYSTAL LOGIC followed by MYSTIFICATION are the two best ones imo but all the first seven have gems (and duds) on them.

 

[rms]

dud on Logic?

 

[CiG]

There are no duds on their first 7 to my ears.

 

[no country for old wainds]

dud on Logic?

feeling free again obvs. it's ok but it's skippable.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Dreams of Eschaton and Midnight Meat Train are both blatantly shit.

 

[rms]

Abyss is an average album, not sure why you're bringing up.

But I wholeheartedly don't find any Manilla Road track "shit" on Logic

 

[CiG]

Dreams of Eschaton is blatantly shit? You're out of your fucking mind hahaha, I fucking love that song.

Midnight Meat Train is pretty cool too.

Cassette, one thing I've learned over the years here is to never listen to HB.

HB Facepalm Count: Back at 8. Soiled it.

 

[ProphetofHatred]

Two kinda underrated things by Manilla Road imo are the song Tomb of The Serpent King (and a lot of the 2000- stuff in general) and that first heavy riff in the song Mysterium, I listen to the song just for that riff.

been listening to nothing but Motorhead lately.

Orgasmatron and 1916, along with Ace of Spades, are the bands best

Overkill is overrated. Bomber is boring.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Dreams of Eschaton is riffless aside from the one they stole from Angel Witch. Total poofter rock.

I listened to Overkill recently and didn't really enjoy it at all. Title track was one of my least favorites from it, actually, really overlong and slower than I remembered.

Iron Fist is one I listen to a lot.

You're poofter rock.

Yeah, Bomber is a bit inconsistent. I prefer Iron Fist to it. And I don't find Overkill boring, that album has its moments, I love No Class despite the fact that there was a dispute about riff stealing thing from ZZ Top and their song Tush, which is also awesome.


1974 - ZZ Top



1979 - Motorhead

 

[The Ozzman]

ZZ Top kicks ass

 

[The Butt]

I agree. I hear from my uncle they put on a killer show too.
