Default Rolling Stones 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time

The 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time | Rolling Stone

Man this list has it all, it's at times cringe inducing, obvious, surprising, and perplexing. Every time I see an oddball choice I have to wonder if the author(s) just popped over to RYM's Top 100 albums under the metal tag when they thought the list was just a little too obvious, and then had to overcompensate for that by throwing in another album to negate the obvious choice.

Anyways here's a tl;dr for the full list

No real point to this thread, I've just noticed a lot of hostility lately and figured we could have a big ol' laugh taking the piss out of a publication that was never really relevant to the metal scene to begin with.
