GMD Poll: Top 10 Metal Albums of 1995

[crimsonfloyd]

With the exception to the massive reach at #1, this is a really strong list. I'm personally not a fan of Meshuggah, but I get why it would make the list. I wouldn't have Thousand Swords or Scarlet Evil Witching Black that high, but in both cases, I get the appeal.

It's notable that black metal makes up 50% of the list.

In celebration of victory most glorious

 

[Vilden]

What is the next year?

 

[no country for old wainds]

[Phylactery]

I demand that you stop being a whore and reveal it now.

 

[Krow]

With sample size in the hundreds they have Death at #1. They also have Dream Theater at #1 for 1992, and MoP at #1 in 1986. Wow I didn't even look at these lists before and had the same #1s.

1990 was a badass year, looking forward to that one. y'know if we're no longer doing the RNG thing

 

[no country for old wainds]

i don't wanna frontload all the best years incase people start losing interest halfway through, 1990 will be a fun one though. RNG has picked a pretty classic year for the next one anyways... *strokes beard and disappears back into my lamp*

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

yea, best way to do it is to pick randomly.

And we all know Rust in Peace is going to win 1990.

 

[The Ozzman]

1990
1994
1988

All would be interesting years for this

 

[EspaDa]

1989 would be great tbh

 

[Mort Divine]

yea, best way to do it is to pick randomly.

And we all know Rust in Peace is going to win 1990.

Hopefully not

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

... zero chance of it not winning, babe.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

I would assume 1990 would be

1. RiP
2. Painkiller

 

[EspaDa]

I wish either Left Hand Path or Painkiller won. Rust in Peace is good but just no.

 

[Vilden]

Hammerheart obv #1 1990...

 

[Baroque]

RiP
By Inheritance

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

I wish either Left Hand Path or Painkiller won. Rust in Peace is good but just no.

RiP absolutely annihilates both of those(and i love LHP).

One of the greatest albums of all time.
