GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums Of 1988

[CiG]

Helstar - A Distant Thunder

This is another record I really need to check out.

 

[The Ozzman]

That's because the album they released this year wasn't very good.

The best album they ever released isn't very good? Okay.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

The best album they ever released isn't very good?

So, a ponderous, bloated and utterly mediocre effort that foretold some of the worst songwriting decisions of latter-era Maiden is the best album they've ever released?

 

[Krow]

This is another record I really need to check out.

Fuck yes you do, try to not sing along to The King is Dead after you hear it a couple times.

 

[The Ozzman]

I'm so fucking incrowd, it's crawling out of my ears

If you want a mediocre effort, you should check out Killers or Piece of Mind

 

[Talos of Atmora]

If you want a mediocre effort, you should check out Killers or Piece of Mind

So, tell me, what makes Seventh Son of a Seventh Son better than either of those albums?

 

[The Ozzman]

Absolutely no filler on SSOASS at all

I was on your side until you went full retard.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

Absolutely no filler on SSOASS at all

The Evil That Men Do, Only the Good Die Young, the title track, and The Clairvoryant say otherwise.

 

[The Ozzman]

The Evil That Men Do, Only the Good Die Young, the title track, and The Clairvoryant say otherwise.

You're a fucking dindu. The Clairvoyant is one of the best tracks on that entire album.

I did hate that song until I saw it live, but I didn't appreciate that album until I saw most of it performed live anyway.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Anyone that doesn't include Operation Mindcrime is a complete and total fucking loser.

I hope No Country uses that quote when he posts the final results.

 

[CiG]

I still haven't heard that record.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Absolutely no filler on SSOASS at all

SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON
SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON
SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON
SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON

 

[Talos of Atmora]

You're a fucking dindu.

Must suck knowing Infinite Dreams is the only song worth a damn on the entire album.

Anyone that doesn't include Operation Mindcrime is a complete and total fucking loser.

I have to listen to that one again before I decide.

The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
The evil that men do lives on and on
(3x)

Can I play with madness? The prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness? There's no vision there at all
Can I play with madness? The prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness? He said you're blind too blind to see
(3x)

 

[Baroque]

1 - L.A. Guns - S/T
2 - Winger - S/T
3 - Ratt - Reach For the Sky
4 - Lita Ford - Lita
5 - Kix - Blow My Fuse
6 - Poison - Open Up and Say Ahh
7 - Cinderella - Long Cold Winter
8 - Bon Jovi - New Jersey
9 - Vixen - S/T
10 - Dokken - Beast From the East

edit: here, how about 10 this time?

good thing ozz quoted the original list

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Honestly I like TB's updated glam setlist better than his original list, although I'd move some stuff around. That Winger album would be #1 though.

These lyrics are objective proof that the entire composition is a filler track.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

The best album they ever released isn't very good? Okay.

Their album of the 80s with the weakest riffs is very good? Not OK.

 

[Bloopy]

@no country, what method do you use for RNG?

Also, what's the earliest year in the hat? 1979 would be funny because everyone could listen to pretty much everything and singles would get more of a chance.
