For those who like or want to know the genre , I made a list of 20 albums essences that everyone should hear.
20 - "Lateralus" - Tool (2001)
19 - "Images and Words" - Dream Theater (1992)
18 - "Blackwater Park" - Opeth (2001)
17 - “Powerslave” - Iron Maiden (1984)
16 - "Bonded by Blood" - Exodus (1985)
15 - "Beneath the Remains" - Sepultura (1989)
14 - ““Countdown to Extinction" - Megadeth (1992)
13 - "The Black Album" - Metallica (1991)
12 - "Heaven and Hell" - Black Sabbath (1980)
10 - "Ace of Spades" - Motorhead (1980)
09 - "Reign in Blood" - Slayer (1986)
08 - "Holy Diver" - Dio (1983)
07 - "Screaming for Vengeance" - Judas Priest (1982)
06 - "Blizzard of Ozz" - Ozzy Osbourne (1980)
05 - "Vulgar Display of Power" - Pantera (1992)
04 - “Rust in Peace" - Megadeth (1990)
03 - "The Number of the Beast" - Iron Maiden (1982)
02 - "Master of Puppets" - Metallica (1986)
01 - "Paranoid" - Black Sabbath (1970)
Can't really argue with that list. I don't think there needs to be two of Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Metallica, and Megadeth though. Replace those 4 with new bands (perhaps Machine Head and Anthrax) Actually I can't think of any more so yeah I'd replace Iron Maiden and Sabbath with an album from Machine Head - "Davidian" and one from Anthrax - "Among the Living".)
Just my opinion! Great post :)
Thanks, I ended up putting two albums of each, because they are so good albums that did not know what should occupy the top 10 kkkkkkk , but agree that machine head has fantastic albums . Just as Evile , Overkill , Annihilator...
Slayer? My eye of the tiger is raining blood. Slayer did a lot of good shit (3 songs average per album except Seasons in the abyss which was a masterpiece)
