Actually, why not switch it wth Sign O the Times on funk rock?

Sign O the Times is funk, Purple Rain is not. I think we'll just leave Purple Rain out of this one. It's a great album, but it doesn't really belong in the rock category IMO.

What? How is it not pop rock? Also, the album is synth funk. Synth funk. Pop rock. Both funk and rock in one album.

I personally prefer Sign O the Times, and I think more people on here will prefer it also. Purple Rain is a bit cheesy and at times frustrating.

It's also his most highly acclaimed and highest selling album.

You must have missed a lot of the metal album survivor battles where Bat went with the most popular acclaimed albums from a band and everyone said that they would vote for that band if it was a different (and better) album. Most acclaimed don't mean **** here.

And the personal opinion of one ******* who thinks his preference means **** does not in fact mean **** either. Just because we might hypothetically happen to have an abnormal number of people who prefer Hell Awaits, that doesn't mean I was ever going to not use Reign in Blood.

I was referring to Darkthrone tbh. There were a few other examples too.

That one's a bit murkier of a choice, but Transylvanian Hunger is still the album that's their most respected. I generally ignore anyone who ever says that they like THIS album better, since one person's subjective opinion is pretty much irrelevant to that thread when making a list. Unless it's mine.

Everyone said they'd go for Blaze in the Northern Sky.
