I need to give Bitches Brew another go. I couldnt get into it last I tried.

I've also never been able to get into London Calling as much as I have tried. I much prefer the self titled but theres not much Clash stuff I like apart from that.

The first couple of their albums were straight-forward punk affairs or at least they were using the energy of punk to express themselves. London Calling though, represented a complete musical change and incorporated a myriad of different musical sounds, an achievement pretty much amazing considering the type of band that they started out as. It was made even more impressive that they did it exceptionally well.

Show me how to find that album then... I'd be keen to hear something that can sustain a listener so well...

I don't really listen to heavy music, but some of the heavier albums I own are:
THE MARROW OF A BONE by Dir en grey
Ire Works by The Dillinger Escape Plan
Silhouettes by Textures
Death of a Dead Day by Sikth

I'd say "farewell to kings" by Rush.

"and the men who hold high places must be the ones who start to mold a new reality, closer to the heart"

.....now that's heavy!

Queen - The Miracle.

Ever heard the song "I want it all"?

Only one of the following bands is actually heavy, but still:

ZZ Top: 'Mescalero', due to the title song; Of course, it's hardly their best album.

Reverend Bizarre: 'In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend' might edge out their other massively heavy stuff.

The Doors: I'm torn between their self-titled and L.A. Woman (The End vs Riders on the Storm + Been Down So Long)

Nirvana: Bleach

Well yeah I get that but I guess for me I don't really think that they did do it that well. London Calling was the first Clash record I bought so i've had it for a number of years but it's never interested me. Maybe I will get into it one day.
