Controversial opinions on metal

[The Ozzman]

everything they've done is solid. They're one of the few death metal bands who haven't released a single bad album.

You really like Blood Oath? I only thought that one was okay.

Another vote for Pierced here. I haven't heard anything past that though.

In crowd alert

3.5/5 it's the one i like the least.

But like is said, not a single bad album in their disog.

I felt like their distinct sound was kind of gone on the last two albums, like, if I didn’t know I was listening to Suffocation I’d have no idea. Albums were alright though.

that's weird, considering their last album is more along the lines of what they were first doing than just about any of their albums ever since.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

If we're talking EP's, then Human Waste hands down. For the albums, Pierced all day long. And Souls to Deny was a solid comeback.

I haven't heard anything post-Blood Oath. Might have to give their latest material a spin when I get the chance.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

their last two album are both pretty good.

 

[EchoForever]

pierced and effigy are tied for me, although pierced has one of the best openers in a dm record

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Most of Ozzy's solo career sucked ass. Randy Rhoads was the only thing that saved that band from being a complete pile of shit.

 

[EchoForever]

i dont think thats controversial at all

yeah same here. But the new wave of plebs might disagree.

 

[jimmy101]

I've said it before, Ozzy's voice changed for the worse in the mid-70's.

 

[CiG]

First solo album rules but I don't care all that much about the rest, honestly. Diary of a Madman is okay.

 

[CiG]

The Despise the Sun EP is the best Suffocation release

I don't agree it's their best but that EP is absolutely nasty.

 

[jimmy101]

I wouldn't say that it's particularly bad or anything. Funeral Inception is pretty cool.

 

[CiG]

Definitely not bad whatsoever. Top tier death metal.

 

[jimmy101]

Oh whoops, I misread your post & thought you meant nasty as in bad.

 

[CiG]

 

[jimmy101]

Haha

 

[The Ozzman]

I mean, if Despise the Sun had been a full length, I would think that as the best Suffocation full length. In terms of full lengths, I would probably go:

*Despise the Sun
Effigy
Breeding
Pierced
ST/Souls to Deny
*Human Waste
Pinnacle of Bedlam
...Of the Dark Light
Blood Oath

*if EPs included, this is how the list would fare

More people need to put Suffo in their list of bands to do for the next poll instead of all thrash
