[Chromatose]

GENESIS - Selling England By the Pound

well I'm glad to see you finally realized this one >>> Lamb


but SHAME for bumping October Rust and Biomech out of your top 10 *shakes fist*

 

[NAD]

Fuborump! (Fuckin' Bored Bump)

1. Tool - ÆNIMA
2. Danzig 4p
3. George Harrison - All Things Must Pass

Then a 10-way tie for 4th place.

Supertramp - Crime of the Century
The Police - Synchronicity
Faith No More - Angel Dust
Megadeth - Rust in Peace
Carcass - Heartwork
Morbid Angel - Domination
Alice in Chains - Dirt
Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy
King Crimson - Larks' Tongues in Aspic
Red Hot Chili Peppers - BloodSugarSexMagick

EDIT: Just remembered this is supposed to be metal top 10. Well I don't give enough of a shit about this to make a new thread.

While these are all 10/10 BUY OR DIE!!! this list needs some revision. Honestly 10 are too many, there's only a handful of albums that make me cum cheesewhiz without apprehension.

Tool - ÆNIMA
The Beatles - Abbey Road
Alice in Chains - Dirt
Danzig 4p
Faith No More - Angel Dust

That oughtta do it.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I don't think I can do this (did I already? lol, I didn't check)

but today it's...

1. Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime
2. Iron Maiden - Powerslave
3. Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
4. Metallica - Ride the Lightning
5. Slayer - Reign In Blood
6. Anthrax - Spreading the Disease
7. Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
8. Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys, Pt. II
9. In Flames - The Jester Race
10. Thyrfing - Urkraft

that'll do for now

 

[Dick Sirloin]

well I'm glad to see you finally realized this one >>> Lamb

Oh, I still love my little lamb, it's just that it's a bit... heavy. If it was the length of SEBTP (~50 minutes), composed of maybe these tracks:

The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway
Fly on a Windshield
In the Cage
Back in NYC
Hairless Heart
The Carpet Crawlers
Lilywhite Lilith
Anyway
The Lamia
The Colony of Slippermen
The Light Dies Down on Broadway


...that's just fucking AWESOME! Not saying the rest is completely filler, but this would be the album to challenge SEBtP. That said, "More Fool Me" compeletly sucks, making the album 9.7/10 or so.

but SHAME for bumping October Rust and Biomech out of your top 10 *shakes fist*

Still love them, but I can't listen to them as repeatedly as any in the top 10.

 

[NAD]

[Demilich]

I'm not sure I'll ever be able to make a top 10 list of metal albums or in general. I keep trying, never works, so fuck it.

 

[J.]

i dunno, ones that always pop into my head when i think absolute faves:

arcane sun
neurosis - times of grace
graveland-following the voice of blood
jesu - jesu
isis - oceanic
pelican - australasia
primordial - spirit the earth aflame

and of course some Black Sab too and Bathory. most likely volume 4, sabotage and twilight of the gods

always subject to change
