GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums of 1990

[jimmy101]

fuck yes. They don't really have a weak album but Punishment for Decadence is my favorite.

Yeah that's what I'm finding. They're one of those bands that never lost their touch.

I'd go for No More Colour next, then work your way back. Check out Grin after you’re done with their tech thrash stuff. It was their last proper album and it's pretty laid back and different.

That's exactly what I did & No More Color is outstanding, these guys are real wizards on their instruments and use the whole thrash metal dynamic in such a unique way. I have also listened to the opening few tracks on Grin and find it to be right up to their usual standard.

TOTAL POINTS: 56.5

Damn, I was even super cool 11 years ago. I definitely sucked at realizing that Cause of Death is the superior album though.

Cause of Death hasn’t held up for me over the years as well as some other death metal. I still like it a lot, especially the title track and “Infected”, but it wouldn’t have made my top 10 here. Tardy’s vocals fucking rule, though.

Pretty solid list. I personally would have liked to have seen Spectrum of Death higher and Massacra and Tiamat make the list.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Cause of Death has grown on me if anything, with the exception of James Murphy's wanky guitar solos.
