SoundofMadness1: Shinedown Albums Best to Worst

FullOfSounds 11.29.16	Sound of Madness t/t jams
Sowing 11.29.16	Nice to see someone else who appreciates these guys. I used to love everything they did but Amaryllis was a big step down and then their most recent was completely awful. As far as the ranking goes I'm with you 100%, just swap the bottom two rankings. Amaryllis has quite a few redeeming moments but TtS is almost unilateral trash. Your descriptions are very well written.
theacademy 11.29.16	sound of madness owns leave a whisper
SoundofMadness1 11.29.16	Thanks for the comments guys. This is the first thing I've written for Sputnik so it's nice to get some feedback. Sowing, I can sort of see where you're coming from with tts because it's so different from their older stuff. I still like it, though.
Conmaniac 11.29.16	strange feature i must say
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Academy, those two are just about dead even for me. Both awesome albums.
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Conmaniac, I just joined Sputnik and wanted to write something. Figured I might as well start with my favorite band.
Conmaniac 11.30.16	I'm not faulting you at all this is pretty well written but it's just strange to see a list like this featured when there are so many of these types of lists basically everyday. welcome to sput tho man
Sowing 11.30.16	What Conmaniac means is that your list got featured. The little black diamond next to your list title indicates this, which means your list stays on the front page longer. Usually really long or involved lists earn a feature, but I suppose someone featured this because you put a decent amount of effort into the descriptions even though the list itself is short.
Rik VII 11.30.16	Very good descrptions, keep it up!
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Oh, I got it. In that case I'm honestly pretty surprised this was featured.
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Thanks, RikRoach!
BurnedBlack606 11.30.16	Second Chance is nice
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Yes it is. A little overplayed but still a very good song.
Sowing 11.30.16	I don't know why but "In Memory" has always been my favorite Shinedown track. I really related to it at the time and that just kind of stuck forever. Of course I like all the usual Shinedown hits too. Until Amaryllis, they never really wrote a "bad" song.
porcupinetheater 11.30.16	Thread is a lot more uniformly supportive than I expected a Shinedown ranked list to be on Sput
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Sowing, I agree that "In Memory" is awesome. That one and "Crying Out" are definitely my favorite non-hits from the album.
Dylan620 11.30.16	Nice to see a fellow Shinedown fan around here m/ Have still yet to spin their latest two but their first three have massive nostalgic value for me. I'd probably rank them SoM > LaW > UaT but all three are fantastic.
Spacesh1p 11.30.16	"Thread is a lot more uniformly supportive than I expected a Shinedown ranked list to be on Sput" Going to echo proc here but good on us being civil.
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Dylan, the last two are definitely a step down from the first three. I still like them both, though.
porcupinetheater 11.30.16	Now that you're here on Sput, SoundofShinedown, if you're open to branching that hard rock game, check out Clutch - Blast Tyrant
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Porcupine, I will do that.
JohnnyoftheWell 11.30.16	Agreed on Us and Them being underrated - Fake and Some Day is a lovely closing combo
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Some Day is a great way to close the album.
Sowing 11.30.16	I have a shit ton of hard rock recommendations for you, just remind me sometime and I'll rattle them off when I'm not fumbling around on my mobile device.
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Sounds good, man.
SandwichBubble 11.30.16	"Thread is a lot more uniformly supportive than I expected a Shinedown ranked list to be on Sput" Probably because people are surprised a new account/list isn't an alt and don't want to chase a new user away by being complete nads. On that note, hello @SoundofMadness1. Cool first list :)
Kalopsia 11.30.16	1 was good. The rest are f'ing terrible.
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Hey, @SandwichBubble. Thank you.
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Kalopsia, you suck.
Masochist 11.30.16	I can dig Shinedown. Some of their songs will probably always remain in rotation for me, and they put on a great live show, too. I loved that song "Devour," and of course "Fly From The Inside."
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	I've seen them live three times and they never disappoint. Same here some of their songs just never get old for me.
808muzik 11.30.16	more like worst to worst. lol
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	Damn you lol
SoundofMadness1 11.30.16	@porcupinetheater, I already went ahead and listened to Blast Tyrant and was impressed. I may have to check out more stuff from Clutch.
Jeffrulesyou 11.30.16	Shinedown ain't bad at all. Their singer is damn talented! Guy seriously has some pipes. I'm not the biggest fan outside a few of their songs, but I saw em live in 04 and they were spot on.
Snake. 11.30.16	we can't post funny soundoffs anymore but sowing can tolerate acad featuring irrevelant as shit lists that's totally fair
porcupinetheater 11.30.16	Glad you dug Clutch, Man. If you wanted to keep going with 'em, I'd say check out Robot Hive/Exodus or Psychic Warfare next, both are pretty damn stellar.
dctarga 11.30.16	Better than Volbeat
pjquinones747 11.30.16	First three records are alright
Sowing 11.30.16	"we can't post funny soundoffs anymore but sowing can tolerate acad featuring irrevelant as shit lists that's totally fair" lol nothing about that makes sense: (1) you can post all the funny soundoffs you want as long as they're after the release/stream date and (2) am I acad's keeper? nothing wrong with featuring a list like this esp. if everything else is slow
Emim 12.01.16	Vocalist is really good. 45 is one of my favorites.
DoubtGin 12.01.16	atmosphere is great
bentheREDfan 12.02.16	Fellow fanboy here but of the alt-metal/mainstream rock band RED, so I understand your feelings of them not having a "bad album". I think it's really cool that you your passion through the band seep through. That said, the only records I could ever really get into from Shinedown were Leave A Whisper and Sound of Madness.
dmp3131 12.02.16	Band is still great. The first three albums especially. I liked Amaryllis quite a bit more than the newest one, though. For My Sake still would be in my top 5 Shinedown songs I think. 1 is probably my 1 but Us and Them might be a tick better than Sound of Madness in my book. Either way, nice to see more fans of this band on here. I hope go back to their heavier side next album, like they started to with Cut the Cord.
SoundofMadness1 12.02.16	I definitely wouldn't mind seeing more heavy stuff on their next album.
runaways 12.02.16	TELL MY MOTHER TELL MY FATHER I'VE DONE THE BEST I CAN
SoundofMadness1 12.03.16	TO MAKE THEM REALIZE THIS IS MY LIFE I HOPE THEY UNDERSTAND
Dylan620 12.03.16	I'M NOT ANGRY I'M JUST SAYYYYIIIIIIIINNNNNGGGG
SoundofMadness1 12.03.16	SOMETIMES GOODBYE IS A SECOND CHANCE
Spec 12.03.16	Sound Of Madness is the tops.
SoundofMadness1 12.03.16	It's a great album, no doubt. Leave a Whisper is just a tad better imo.
Trailmix 12.04.16	Leave A Whisper rules and Sound of Madness as well, but I don't know about the other three, they're okay I guess.
SoundofMadness1 12.04.16	Thanks, @sixdegrees!
Snake. 12.04.16	yeah i can't wait for your contributions in the near future
Storm In A Teacup 12.04.16	Everyone was crazy for Shinedown back in the day
709baj 12.04.16	1 is surprisingly good. I have 3 but haven't gotten around to listening yet
Danred97 12.04.16	Haven't listened to shinedown in quite some time. 1 and 2 have always been my favorite. 3 was only okay, and I just gave up on them after 5. Call Me has always been my favorite track from them. Very nostalgic for me.
