5.0 classic
Alice in Chains Dirt
At the Drive-In Relationship of Command
A chaotic, hyperactive masterpiece filled with emotion and aggression. Maintains a very unified
sound throughout its entirety, yet manages to give each song its own identity. In all honesty,
this album would deserve at least a 3 solely for One Armed Scissor and Arcarsenal, but the fact
that every other track manages to be just as amazingly raw, yet catchy simply makes this an
essential album to listen to.
Between the Buried and Me Colors
Extreme amounts of technicality can be found throughout, and the songwriting is highly creative, with many genre switches throughout keeping this album from becoming monotonous, as well as making it a very unique listen.
Between the Buried and Me The Great Misdirect
Essentially a more refined version of Colors in many ways, as the eclectic nature of the band is still in full force, but each transition sounds smoother, and the production is cleaner overall. The technical skill of each member in the band is utterly mindblowing, and there is a great mix of beautiful soft sections, and crushing heavy ones.
Black Sabbath Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Black Sabbath Master of Reality
Black Sabbath Paranoid
While the singles on the album, such as Paranoid and Iron Man are absolute beasts of tracks, it's really the songs like Electric Funeral and War Pigs that make this such an unforgettable album. Constant amazing riffs can be found throughout.
Camel Mirage
Comus First Utterance
Converge Jane Doe
Dead Kennedys Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables
Death Human
Death Symbolic
Death Grips The Money Store
While each song sounds very similar in terms of soundscape (very dense, abrasive beats bordering on pure noise at many points), there is still a great deal of individuality in each song. The production in particular is to be noted, as it is consistently amazing and perfectly complements the pure anger displayed by MC Ride.

The most consistent Arctic Monkeys record, with a great mix of fast energetic songs, and slower, more emotional ballad, creating a varied and fun listen.

Between the Buried and Me The Silent Circus
Dead Kennedys Bedtime for Democracy
Death Scream Bloody Gore
Death The Sound of Perseverance
While this is generally regarded as one of Death's finest moments, I personally find it to be a large step back in terms of quality. The transitions are often extremely jarring and will use riffs that don't quite fit together smoothly, leading to a technically impressive, but still lackluster album.
