Manilla Fucking Road

To add my two cents, I don't see how any body who likes any other Heavy Metal band would not like Manilla Road. That said, I often associate them with Cirith Ungol, whom I know were hard to get into for some people.

I always do to, but I think it's because I was introduced to both bands around the same time.
 
I would describe Mark of the Beast as a dud. As far as Crystal Logic, which is supposedly one of their best, I was only really impressed by "Necropolis" and the title track. Nothing else really reached the level of awesomeness of those two.

I'm not saying they're bad. They've definitely done some great songs, and I intend to check out more of their albums. But I find it rather laughable that people here are putting them on such a pedestal. They seem to be getting idolised because of their underground status. Which happens with a lot of fucking bands here, I might add.

Nah, Meshuggah's new album destroys it

EDIT: I wouldn't consider Bodom's first three albums watered down either.

just for their fans.

btw, the best of this year is Wake The Sleeper, from Uriah Heep.
