Well. Seeing as they're two of my favorite Melvins albums I'd have to disagree.

But then in the stoner rock continuum, I'd see where you're coming from.

Here's my new list I propose

1. Monster Magnet - Superjudge
2. Kyuss - Welcome to Sky Valley
3. Brant Bjork - Jalamanta
4. Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
5. Boris - Akuma no Uta
6. Fu Manchu - King of the Road
7. Orange Goblin - The Big Black
8. Sleep - Sleep's Holy Mountain
9. Corrosion of Conformity - Deliverance
10. Clutch - Robot Hive/Exodus

I'll probably make changes for Fu Manchu and Boris as well, but like i said, I want to relisten to those first. It's been a while.

Take off Brant Bjork because nobody cares about him. The Boris album should be Heavy Rocks. I think Masters of Reality should go back on too for being the creator of the genre.

Which Heavy Rocks? If we do Black Sabbath I think Vol. 4 would be better. And brant doesn't get enough credit.

Personal taste should be kept to a minimum unless the rest of the board is on the same page. Dopes to Infinity is considered by most to be Monster Magnet's best, so definitely not on that change. Changing Houdini to Stoner Witch is fine, but removing Melvins altogether just because you have bad taste is balls.

And... Fu Manchu? Really? I mean they're alright but pretty much second tier quality-wise; definitely keep Blast Tyrant; keep Master of Reality.

Dopes to Infinity is on the space rock list. I'd say no to Blast Tyrant. Robot Hive is just better.

I told him to take Melvins off, it just ain't stoner rock. Heavy Rocks we already did in the Metal Survivor, so I proposed Pink.

And yeah, Dopes to Infinity and Blast Tyrant. And please change Orange Goblin.

Then we can take it off space rock as it's clearly more relevant to stoner rock.

I'm potentially cool with that, but these are two different threads and I was on the fence as to whether Pink was really a stoner rock album.

Then keep Akuma no Uta. Just as good as heavy rocks.

Which Heavy Rocks is everyone talking about? 2002 or 2011?
