Their guitar playing is so simple yet so unique and effective. Its remarkable. Another example which shows that songwriting will always trump technical abilty. To Sirius has like 4 riffs and its still great.

Metal died in 1993. Only 12 good albums have been released since then (most of them in 1994, being already recorded by 1993). Metal achieved its creative peak in albums like Onward to Golgotha, Pure Holocaust, and The Red in the Sky is Ours, elevating the genre into a legitimate art form. Now, thanks to Slaughter of the Soul and Gojira, all its potential was squandered and the genre has been reduced into being mere gimmick ridden noise for drunk idiots (i.e. the lowest common denominator - stop trying to turn underground metal into AC/DC).

i'd put any Woe album down as better than every single metal album before it, including other Woe albums
metal hasn't peaked and metal after '94 is almost universally better than metal from before '94

90s is literally where metal bloomed from just heavy metal and thrash (plus early explorations into extreme territories) into the wide field of genres that we love and enjoy today. its literally the best decade for metal. straight up.

It definitely got even better in the next decade, 00's are basically the 90's on steroids when it comes to creativity and outstanding releases

I'll always say 90s is best but yeah this is where I think arguments can be made, metal also got real interesting in a number of genres (tech death can die)
