3 Years At Sputnik, Like Anyone Cares
Yes, I remember it well. T'was the summer of '07, and I was on my uncle's shitty old eMac looking for Underclass Hero reviews online. That was when I stumbled across Sputnik, as well as a certain, less-than-favourable piece by a certain Dave de Sylvia, expressing his utter hatred for said album. Naturally I joined up so I could insult him thoroughly for badmouthing my beloved Sum 41 in such a way.
Yeah that was a long time ago, I've matured slightly since then, though it's still definitely better than a 1. Anyway, as is tradition, here are my fave albums of all time for you all to not care about! |
| 1 |  | Agoraphobic Nosebleed
Agorapocalypse
Nice and spastic, good for disemboweling your enemies. |
| 2 |  | Alkaline Trio
Crimson
I prefer it t FHTI for some reason. |
| 3 |  | Arsis
A Celebration of Guilt
Excellent deathy-thrashy-melodicy metal. |
| 4 |  | At The Drive-In
Relationship Of Command
Quite a big Sputnik cliche, but people obviously like it for a reason. |
| 5 |  | At The Gates
Slaughter of the Soul
'Gothenburg' metal at its finest. But I'm sure you already knew that... |
| 6 |  | Atheist
Unquestionable Presence
No joke, the only reason I originally got this album is because I'm an atheist myself and wondered what they sounded like. The answer is 'very very good indeed'. |
| 7 |  | Opeth
Ghost Reveries
At least I can say I resisted Blackwater Park. |
| 8 |  | Bad Religion
Against The Grain
This is probably my 4th or 5th favourite album in existence. Everything about it appeals to me perfectly. That said, I'm a total bitch for Bad Religion |
| 9 |  | Bad Religion
Generator
Almost as fantastic as ATG. |
| 10 |  | Bad Religion
The Gray Race
Not quite as good as the other BR albums here, but contains a lot of strong individual tracks, my favourites being 'Punk Rock Song' and 'Come Join Us'. Haters are gonna hate... |
| 11 |  | Bad Religion
No Control
Another gem from their golden age. (I understand if you're getting sick of them by now ;) |
| 12 |  | Bad Religion
Suffer
Great album, blah blah, single-handedly revived the California punk scene, blah blah blah. You know the drill |
| 13 |  | Beck
Odelay!
This guy can make more weird sounds than should be allowed. |
| 14 |  | Behemoth
Demigod
Is it death metal? Is it black metal? Or even blackened death metal? I know what I call it: awesome. |
| 15 |  | Benighted
Icon
Who'd have thought the French could come up with such an excellent brutal death metal album? Not well known, but definitely well worth your time. |
| 16 |  | Black Flag
Damaged
Simply iconic, even if the production sounds like it was recorded from inside a shoe or something. |
| 17 |  | Pig Destroyer
Terrifyer
The perfect Grindcore album. Really. |
| 18 |  | Bomb The Music Industry!
Album Minus Band
Their debut beats all, and also makes idiots out of all the punk twats who actually demand money for their music. (like Bad Religion lol) |
| 19 |  | Say Anything
Say Anything
Sometimes you just need a nice mellow break from all the death metal vomiting. |
| 20 |  | Botch
We Are The Romans
Absofuckinglutely infuckingcredible. These guys shouldn't have broken up. |
| 21 |  | Thrice
The Illusion Of Safety
I would quite like to have sex with this album. By the way, in case you're wondering why some of these albums are out of alphabetical order, fuck off. |
| 22 |  | Brutal Truth
Evolution Through Revolution
You can't beat a good bit of Grindcore. And this is among the best. |
| 23 |  | Burzum
Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
Really quite disturbing. In a good way. |
| 24 |  | Cannabis Corpse
Tube of The Resinated
Fucking hilarious Cannibal Corpse parody. And the music itself is actually really good. |
| 25 |  | Cannibal Corpse
Kill
Of course, you can't beat some original CC material. Definitely their best imo. |
| 26 |  | Carcass
Heartwork
The original Melodic Death Metal album. I prefer it to their grind stuff to be honest. |
| 27 |  | Children Of Bodom
Follow The Reaper
This was the album that got me into metal, full stop. |
| 28 |  | Circle Takes The Square
As The Roots Undo
I'm sure this album has appeared on every single list ever made, but fuck it anyway. |
| 29 |  | Scar Symmetry
Holographic Universe
All you haters know where to stick it. |
| 30 |  | Coalesce
Ox
Underrated band, underrated album. Also the EP kicks sphincter. |
| 31 |  | Converge
Axe To Fall
I FUCKING LOVE CONVERGE! FUCK ALL YOU FUCKERS WHO DISAGREE! everything about this album is almost perfect. Only my second fave Converge album though, I think you can guess which one takes it... |
| 32 |  | Converge
Jane Doe
Sputnik cliche no. 3. Did I mention this is my favourite album of all time? And that's a scientific fact. |
| 33 |  | Cryptopsy
None So Vile
Yeah, they used to be good and everything. |
| 34 |  | Cyanide Breed
Shoutout to Satan
I'm convinced I'm the only human on Earth who has heard of/likes this band. I would like that to change some day. Don't let the stupid album name fool you, this is death metal at its finest! |
| 35 |  | Cynic
Traced In Air
I prefer it to Focus. (Don't get me wrong though, they're both brilliant) |
| 36 |  | Dark Tranquillity
Fiction
Fuck Yeah motherfuckers! Prepare to get fucked by the awesomeness of DT. |

Option Paralysis
Fuck me, this album is fanfuckingtastic! Made of awesome. |
| 40 |  | Equilibrium
Sagas
This was my favourite album for a long time. It's probably 5th or 6th now. |
| 41 | | Godspeed You! Black Emperor
F#A#?
I dare you to find someone who a) doesn't like this album and b) doesn't like cock. |
| 42 |  | In Flames
Clayman
What got me into metal, along with Follow The Reaper. |
| 43 |  | Judas Priest
Painkiller
Simply Classic. Lyrics are a bit last century though |
| 44 |  | King Crimson
In The Court Of The Crimson King
The original prog album. |
| 45 |  | Megadeth
Rust In Peace
The best thrash album. Better than anything Metallicock will ever come up with. |
| 46 |  | Nick Drake
Pink Moon
Quite haunting, really. As if the ghost of Nick Drake is strumming to you from somewhere in the other realm. Or something. |
| 47 |  | The Ocean
Precambrian
Fucking epic progressive-y metalcore-y music. Germans kick ass! |
| 48 |  | Rage Against The Machine
Rage Against The Machine
Damn, I'm running out of slots. Should've done a top 100 |
