MetalBites Top 50 List

My top 10 would probably be something like this, but don't hold me to it:

1. Arcane Sun - Arcane Sun
2. Neurosis - Through Silver in Blood
3. Graveland - Following the Voice of Blood
4. Neurosis - Times of Grace
5. Primordial - Spirit the Earth Aflame
6. Carcass - Necroticism: Descanting the Insalubrious
7. Isis - Oceanic
8. Summoning - Minas Morgul
9. In the Woods... - HEart of the Ages
10. Kiss It Goodbye - She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not

some others that almost made it:

11. Today is the Day - In the Eyes of God
12. Aeternus - Beyond the Wandering Moon
13. Agalloch - Pale Folklore
14. Iron Monkey - Our Problem
15. Geasa - Angel's Cry
 
9. Forbidden - Distortion
Really... I didn't know Forbidden after "Twisted Into Form" were worth listening to.

Anyway... Mine would look something like

1. Agalloch "Pale Folklore"
2. Katatonia "Brave Murder Day"
3. At the Gates "The Red in the Sky is Ours"
4. Ulver "Bergtatt"
5. Burzum "Hvis Lyset Tar Oss"
6. Bathory "Blood Fire Death"
7. Tiamat "A Deeper Kind of Slumber"
8. Darkthrone "Transilvanian Hunger"
9. Skepticism "Stormcrowfleet"
10. Negurã Bunget "Sala Molksa"

Maybe... Dark Tranquillity's "Projector" should be there somewhere as well...
 
After not a whole lot of thought, and bound to change if I take a look at my collection tonight:

1. Megadeth - Rust in Peace
2. Carcass - Heartwork
3. Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss
4. Morbid Angel - Domination
5. Sepultura - Chaos A.D.
6. Alice in Chains - Dirt
7. Ulver - Bergtatt
8. Hypocrisy - Abducted
9. S.O.D. - Speak English or Die
10. Metallica - Ride the Lightning
 
Teh list!!111

2.Agalloch - Pale Folklore
3.Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
4.Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger
5.Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss

12. Arckanum - Fran Marder
13. Venom - Black Metal
14. Dissection - Storm Of The Light's Bane
15. Dawn - Slaughtersun
etc...

Something like that. Putting them in an order is very hard though.

Edit: Bathory "Hammerheart" should be there in top 10 somewhere too... This is quite impossible.
 
I always found the whole 'top ten of all time' to be a very foolish and impossible endeavor. Here's a bunch of albums that would be in my top 50 list, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some obvious ones. I honestly couldn't tell you what order, so alphabetical will do!

Blind Guardian - Nightfall on Middle Earth
Cannibal Corpse - Bloodthirst
Carcass - Symphonies of Sickness
Carnage - Dark Recollections
Coroner - No More Color
Dark Angel - Time Does Not Heal
Darkthrone - Under A Funeral Moon
Death - Human
Decapitated - Nihility
Destruction - Infernal Overkill
Edge of Sanity - Crimson
Entombed - Left Hand Path
Ghoul - Maniaxe
Grave - You'll Never See...
Impaled - Mondo Medicale
Iron Maiden - Killers
Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind
Kreator - Extreme Agression
Malevolent Creation - Retribution
Morbid Angel - Blessed Are The Sick
Nocturnus - The Key
Obituary - Cause of Death
Sabbat - Dreamweaver
Savatage - Hall of the Mountain King

Not even going to attempt this right now....wish we'd started this in a new thread - "top 10 albums of all time" probably deserves its own thread anyway, no? :(

How could you forget Iron Maiden "Virtual XI"? :mad:
 
How the hell can you make a top 50 metal albums list without mentioning at least 1 Death album? That's just ludicrous.
 
Mayhem - De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas
Ulver - Nattens Madrigal
Bathory - Blood Fire Death
Sodom - In the sign of Evil/Obsessed by Cruelty (I've got 'em on one disc so it qualifies as one)
Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger
Enslaved - Vikingligr Veldi
Negurã Bunget - Sala Molksa
Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
Metallica - all pre-black (TAhT SI ONE ALBUM FAK U)
Taake - Nattestid ser Porten Vid

First two in order, rest unsorted and probably not that definite top 10.

Who the fuck told you that? Distortion is an excellent and totally worthy followup to Twisted Into Form. Anyone who says differently must like The Backstreet Boys, 'cause they're insane AND retarded!!! :p

Seriously, though, I honestly can't see how someone could like Twisted and not like Distortion. Both are definitive Bay Area thrash albums, IMO.

Yeah, I dig both Distortion and Green. If you are a Forbidden fan, you should have their whole catalog.
