GMD Poll: Top 10 Metal Albums of 1992

[TechnicalBarbarity]

But you said your favorite album of all time is Rust In Peace, therefore this is not a stone cold fact since there is not a single 80's metal album better than it.

So im supposed to think 90's are better than 80's just because my favorite album of all time came out in 1990?

 

[Baroque]

You said 80s metal > 90s metal is always true, however you cannot name an 80s metal album better than Rust In Peace which is a contradiction to your claim.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

oh really, i said "80's metal > 90's metal is always true"? sure, just twist my words around in order to push your own argument.

MOST of the greatest metal albums of all time came out before the 90's, not during or after.

80's metal > 90's metal. Not an opinion, but rather a stone cold fact

do you need me to break that down? Most(https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/most) of the greatest albums from my favorite bands came out in the 80's, which means 80's > 90's.

And incase you missed it, i dissected your little list on the previous page. Most of those band released their best albums in the 80's.

 

[Baroque]

You added "most" later, you originally said it was a stone cold fact. Now you've admitted it's not so I'll move on.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

what? I added most later? Are you delusional? Dude, i even pointed out in every one of my replies to you that i said most, but you just so happened to ignore it. yeah, move on.

Most of the greatest metal albums of all time came out before the 90's, not during or after.

80's metal > 90's metal. Not an opinion, but rather a stone cold fact

@Baroque Yes, i love those albums ... but if we are talking about which of those two decades released MORE of the albums i like or consider to be favorites than it's not even close imo. And you conveniently seem to be skipping the MOST part in my posts. Do you really need me to list a never-ending list of bands and albums form the 80's(Megadeth, Slayer, Testament, Morbid Angel, Sodom, Destruction, Death, Pestilence, Sepultura, Sadus, Coroner etc ... i can go on forever) that i consider to be amongst my favorites?

 

[Baroque]

you still haven't addressed my point that there's no reason to draw lines 80-89. What happened in 90 that you can't include that in your favorite years? Some kind of magical number to you? What thrash or death (your favorite genres) was released in 80 anyway? Isn't Gorguts your favorite band?

If you include 80-98 you can include all of Death's catalog etc.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

:facepalm: I'm just saying that most of the best albums from my favorite bands came out in the 80's, so therefor 80's > 90's. Wow, why in the world is this so hard for you?

Ok, so what albums from 1980 are better than albums from 1990? why not say your favorite decade is '81-90?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

clearly that was a typo. But again, why is it that you need to twist everything i said up in order to push some nonsensical argument that you seem to be having with yourself in your head?

In what way is it nonsensical? I'm saying that you're being nonsensical by choosing arbitrary boundary years which don't even make sense given your tastes. The golden age of thrash didn't magically end on December 31st 1989. Nor did it magically begin on Jan 1st 1980

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

why not say your favorite decade is '81-90?

ummmn, because the topic at hand was wether the 80's or 90's had better albums.

1980's is the golden age. 1990's is the silver age.

i think most bands from the 90s would agree with it tbh, a lot of the major bands started out pretty blatantly worshipping stuff from the '80s. besides, i think the golden age of anything always precedes the silver age?

I'm definitely more of a 90s guy personally. Most of my favourite albums were realeased in that decade. I also have way more honourable mentions for this year than the 1986 one.

 

[Baroque]

And then I posted there was no need for those boundary years. And then you said 80s >90s was a stone cold fact. I know.

Dude i never said it did, so please stop twisting shit up. All i said was simply that THE BEST ALBUMS FROM MY FAVORITE BANDS CAME OUT IN THE 80's. Most of the best thrash albums form the best thrash bands came out in the 80's, that is something that you just cannot argue. And just because my favorite album came out in 1990 does not mean im not going to be an ignorant self-centered retard by saying saying 90>80's because of one album ... which is what your implying that i should do.

And im not choosing anything, the topic at hand was 80's and 90's.

I never said you should say 90>80s or even implied that. I said very clearly to redefine your years outside of a 80s 90s system if you want to include your favorite albums in the golden age.

Your favorite album being 90 still does contradict your "stone cold fact" statement since it's not even a "stone cold opinion" if there are counter examples .

 

[-CC-]

This may be the calmest and most reasonable I have seen TB in a 2-page argument...ever?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

So let me get this straight ... my favorite album being from 1990 "self contradicts" my statement that the 80's were a better decade for metal than the 90's? So you what you want me to have is just a completely ignorant and self-centered opinion on the the matter? no thanks

Best albums from Metallica, Sodom, Kreator, Coroner, Destruction, Death, Morbid Angel, Sepultura, Sadus, Overkill, Metal Church, Forbidden, Voviod, Pestilence, Vio-Lence, Razor, Artillery, Heathen, Whiplash, Iron Maiden, Bathory, Master, Dark Angel, Sacrifice, Tankard, Obituary, Dio, tank, just about the whole NWOBHM movement .... shit, my fingers are getting tired

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

This may be the calmest and most reasonable I have seen TB in a 2-page argument...ever?

cuz i kind of like the guy. kind of. And it's not like he's talking shit, so there's that too.

 

[Baroque]

I mean yeah it does. Because no one of those albums you listed is rated higher by you than a 90 album, it means that 90 album is an exception to your stone cold fact rule.

You used the same logic recently to explain why you thought dark Angel was better than artilllery. You said it was because they had the best album out of both bands, though Artillery may have more good albums. So now your logic in that debate or this one is flawed, since you're claiming the same logic doesn't apply here

Of course it doesnt apply here, how in the world do you even make that comparison?

Dark Angel pretty muuch ended(wont be surrprised if you think you're going to be the one to point out that they are still "active") with Time Does Not Heal, and yet you're comparing a band that hasnt released an album in almost 30 years to a truly active band that has been pumping out albums in he past decade? Two of the top three albums form those bands in my list belong to Dark Angel. And every single Dark Angel album easily wipes the floor with the recent Artillery(minus their newest one, which i haven't heard). So yes, Dark Angel > Artillery
