FunkyMonk Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 So what's the metal album that you think just kicks so much ass it's unbelievable? The album that makes you realize that metal isn't about thinking, it's about punching someone in the crotch and laughing at their pain. That album for me is Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power. It may not be the heaviest or most aggressive album of all time, and I was tempted to name say a Slayer or Cannibal Corpse album 'kickass', which they are. But there is something about this album that just fucks you up...in the best way possible. If you don't know what I'm talking about....go to hell.

Dannebac Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I would say Damage Done by Dark Tranquillitynot a single bad song on it Im getting hard just thinking about it possibly the Gallery by DT is the most kick ass one its hard to be surewell its a DT album thats for sure then Dissection's storm of lights bane is a real killer album also for we're the outstretched fingersThat seize and hold the wind... you who turn to otherswith everything you lacka face that bears not seeingthen i'll turn my back Track now the stains that allow my fallSickening, the sight of it allNever shall I claim my innocenceI just was not there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridin' the Nightrain Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 (edited) that metal isn't about thinking, it's about punching someone in the crotch and laughing at their pain.Um, bullshit. Metal is a very clever genre, and the best metal is that which makes you think. I hate the stereotype that metal is all noise and no substance. There'd be a few 'definitive' metal albums for me:Opeth - OrchidAgalloch - The MantleWoods of Ypres - Pursuit of the Sun and Allure of the EarthBlack Sabbath - Black SabbathIron Maiden - Fear of the DarkIron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh SonBurzum - Det Som Engang VarSunn 0))) - Black OneDrudkh - Autumn AuroraDrudkh - Forgotten LegendsQueensryche - Operation MindcrimeEmperor - In the Nightside EclipseThose are off the top of my head. I've probably missed a few obvious ones. Edited January 2, 2007 by Ridin' the Nightrain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metal is a very clever genre, and the best metal is that which makes you think. I hate the stereotype that metal is all noise and no substance. Yeah but I'm not in the mood for thinking metal right now. I want fast, aggressive and ass-kicking madness. Not all metal has to make you think....and that's the stuff that I made this thread about .

Battlehawk Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Well for me, at least it's Sepultura's Arise. Yeah, I know there's harder stuff, faster stuff, darker stuff, better bands and all the like. I just like this one the most-musically, lyrically. I like how it deals with deeper meanings then most conventional. It's like the "Apocalypse Now" of metal. It delves into deeper things. Musically it's also interesting and flows with the songs well.And please don't blast me with stupid comments like "U r lYkE a st00ped gn00b-saur, dAt shyT aint br00tal"If I get that, I will think less of you as a human being.

Ridin' the Nightrain Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Tis indeed. One of my favourite concept albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyMonk Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 Rust in Peace is my favourite metal album. Better than Metallica's albums.,.*cowers in corner*. Operation Mindcrime is also awesome, you can easily listen to it many times in a row and not get bored at all...in fact I'm gonna go listen to it now. And I didn't say that metal had no substance or whatever , just that this thread isn't about that kind of metal, it's about the kind that kicks your ass all over the place you know?

Guest Ohdistortedsmile1789 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Rust In Peace is too corny. I prefer Chaos A.D. or any 80s Metallica album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppelin Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Painkiller by Judas Priest is one of my favourites aswell. It just punishes you with every listen. Something that wasn't thought to be possible after they released Turbo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
