form a list of the Magnum Opus of various metal bands. not your favorite, the magnum opus. for example: Killing Is My Business... Is my favorite Megadeth album, however Rust In Peace Is the undenyable Magnum Opus.


Blind Guardian - Nightfall in Middle-Earth
Dio - Holy Diver
Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys Pt. 1
Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Judas Priest - British Steel
Kreator - Pleasure to Kill
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Megadeth - Rust In Peace
Motorhead - Ace of Spades
Queen - A Night at the Opera
Thin Lizzy - Jailbreak

I disagree with Seventh Son... Was thinking more The Number of the Beast.

3 Inches of Blood - Advance and Vanquish
GWAR - America Must Be Destroyed
Slayer - Reign in Blood
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Dream Theater - Awake (Images and Words?)
Judas Priest - PAINKILLLLLLLLLLAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Strapping Young Lad - Alien
System of a Down - Toxicity
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Pantera - Cowboys From Hell
Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
At The Gates - Slaughter of the Soul

That's my favourite album, but I hear more of Awake being their best.

 

[D.Ingram]

I completely disagree with Megadeth, Metallica and Motorhead. Peace Sells, Ride the Lightning and Ocerkill I reckon.

 

[Heavy Metal Rich]

Pantera's was probably Vulgar Display but Far Beyond Driven was their biggest seller for some reason.

Some bands do have more than one. It is rare but does happen.

Machine Head - Burn My Eyes or The Blackening
Annihilator - Alice In Hell
Overkill - The Years Of Decay or Horrorscope
Anthrax - Among The Living or Persistence Of Time
Death - All of them really but I would say Human
Nevermore - The Politics Of Ecstasy or This Godless Endeavor
Fear Factory - Demanufacture
Mastodon - Leviathan or Blood Mountain
AC/DC - Back In Black
Venom - Black Metal or At War With Satan

All awesome albums but I think the other 3 were the right choice

Maiden is a hard choice between seventh son and number of the beast, beast had a few epic songs, but i think seventh son was better allround so i dunno what to suggest
Painkiller and British Steel is also a very tough one, i think British Steel has the edge just

 

[Heavy Metal Rich]

And then I turn over the Screaming For Vengeance card and it could go either of three ways. It is really hard to say for them, I think I agree British Steel has the edge. It definately does here in Britain but I think Screaming For Vengeance would be the one in America. Painkiller is a universal great.

 

[D.Ingram]

Painkiller is just.... brilliant.

 

[Journeyman14]

PAINNNNNKILLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Not long till the Sheffield gig!

 

[D.Ingram]

And that my son, is when I shall die from an overdose of awesome

 

[Heavy Metal Rich]

Painkiller is just.... brilliant.

I'm sorry Dave but that doesn't even cover it.

The song itself is a face-ripper and the album... Well I think we all know what the album does.

I'm going to Wembley to see them. I'm going to see Overkill and Exodus the night before too. I think I will be the one dying of awesomeness.

 

[Lordmoron]

[Heavy Metal Rich]
