[ohiogrinder]

Nortt/Xasthur split

thats a very good split

 

[MasterOLightning]

Certainly. Xasthur/Leviathan is almost as good. The Leviathan material there doesn't complement Xasthur quite as well as Nortt does. For people who haven't heard Xasthur or Nortt yet, that split is a great place to start. It's by far the most accessible Xasthur material.

 

[IdolWarship]

Moonsorrow - Verisäkeet
Bathory - Twilight of the Gods
Bathory - Blood on Ice
Arghoslent - Incorrigible Bigotry
Mörk Gryning - Maelstrom Chaos
Korpiklaani - Tales Along This Road
Finntroll - Midnattens Widunder
Meads of Asphodel - Damascus Steel
Isengard - Høstmørke
Windir - Likferd

 

[Slayed Necros]

Hail - Inheritance of Evilness
Dark Tribe - In Jeraspunta - Die Rückkehr der Tollwütigen Bestie
Sacramentum - Far Away from the Sun
Liers in Wait - Spiritually Uncontrolled Art
Miasma - Changes
Graveland - Thousand Swords
Therion - Beyond Sanctorum
Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
Nav' - Halls of Death
Epitaph (Swe) - Seeming Salvation

 

[DarkBliss]

Not much different from this thread, I suppose:

[skeptik]

Judas Priest - Stained Class
Mercyful Fate - Melissa
Mercyful Fate - Don't Break The Oath
Burning Saviours - Hundus
Bathory - Hammerheart

I'm sure there are others, but these are five albums that I really think that I could listen to a RIDICULOUS amount. I know that Burning Saviours is very new, but that album has made a huge impact, for musical and unrelated reasons.

 

[JuanDeLaForet]

Ozzy - Tribute
Iron Maiden - Live after Death
Carcass - Necroticism
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Slayer - Reign in Blood
Vision of Disorder - Imprint
Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime
Korn - Korn
Tool - Aenima
NIN - The Downward Spiral

 

[ColinOfDisplacement]

I would say...

METALLICA Ride The Lightning
MANOWAR The Triumph Of Steel
IRON MAIDEN Live After Death
BLS The Blessed Hell Ride
SLAYER Raining Blood
PANTERA Far Beyond Driven
MACHINE HEAD Burn My Eyes
SHADOWS FALL The Art Of Balance
ARCH ENEMY Wages Of Sin
MEGADETH Countdown To Extinction

 

[Carcassian]

Candlemass - Doomed for Live
Iron Maiden - Live After Death
Slayer - Decade of Aggression
Carcass - Necroticism
Black Sabbath - Sabotage
Bolt Thrower - ...For Victory
Deicide - When Satan Lives
Immortal - At The Heart of Winter
Skyclad - Live at the Dynamo
Pentagram - Relentless

 

[byrne]

why is everyone saying forgotten legends. autumn aurora is clearly better :shock:

At the Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours
Slayer - Show No Mercy
Mayhem - De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas
Bruce Dickinson - The Chemical Wedding
Mortal Sin - Mayhemic Destruction
Onslaught - In Search of Sanity
Agalloch - Pale Folklore
Danzig - Danzig II: Lucifuge
Primordial - The Gathering Wilderness
Alchemist - Organasm

They certainly aren't my 10 favourite albums, nor would I say they are necessarily the 10 greatest. But I tend to be able to listen to albums that I think "rock" ad nausiem. Albums like PF and TGW are subtle and soothing and therefore are easy to listen to often.

That leaves AtG and Mayhem - artistically both brilliant. TRITSIO more so (the greatest album / piece of music / piece of art to have ever been created). Each is more rewarding each time I listen to them.

Particularly melodic, brutal, obscure, thrashy/raw albums and so forth have generally been left off, as they are only suitable in reasonable doses - whilst being brilliant (e.g. Kreator - Pleasure to Kill) they are generally too extreme to listen to too often.
