Same. Someone tell me if Demolition by Girlschool is on there. If not, fuck Rolling Stone with a pineapple coated in battery acid.

I've edited the original post with the full list so people who can't view the link on mobile devices can join in around this barrel and have fun with the rest of us shooting these fish.

*checks the list*

I'll get the pineapple, you get the battery acid.

I'm curious why that Bathory album. I know it's awesome, but people generally talk about Blood Fire Death or the debut first. I'd like to think that people assigned to this job would have at least LISTENED to ****ing Bathory, so I'm curious if that was a rare personal opinion?

Wpnfire · 06-22-2017, 08:36 PM

From my personal experience, people overwhelmingly people prefer the debut.

Pretty much this.

It's a decent list.

They covered their bases.

I don't think they have any business pretending they know something about Pig Destroyer but ok.

It appears to be a decent list, at first glance anyways, I've seen a lot worse.

1. Black Sabbath - Paranoid (Fair Enough)

2. Metallica - Master of Puppets (Not my favourite Metallica album but understandable)

3. Judas Priest - British Steel (I am assuming that AC/DC isn't considered metal on this list, so this is their attempt to substitute Back in Black)

4. Iron Maiden - Run to the Hills (Have to keep the Maiden fans happy)

5. Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath??? This is the first one I have a problem with. Yes it's considered to be the first heavy metal album by many, and the first track will always be a haunting classic, but outside of that, a lot of the album is wanky improv. It should not be in front of Reign in Blood!

6. Slayer, 'Reign in Blood' (This should be in the top 5)

7. Motorhead - No Remorse (fair enough)

8. Megadeth - Peace Sells (My personal favourite, I like it much better than their so called progressive thrash metal classic; Rust in Peace)

9. Ozzy - Blizzard of OZ (As long as there are a large contingent of guys over 40 who wore jean jackets with Led Zeppelin iron ons, and smoked lots of pot back in the early 80's. Then this will forever be on the list.) Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil is far superior to this classic rock relic though.

10. Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power (I suppose they are on here because they spearheaded much of the commercial sound of heavy metal during the 90's? I suppose they're a better option than Limp Bizkit or Korn. They still suck though!

Why are Rage Against the Machine and Helmet on a metal list?

OccultHawk · 06-23-2017, 05:28 AM

Why isn't RUN-DMC?

Not sure but I like where you're going!

Little surprised by the lack of love for British Steel.
