08.01.25 | "The band has evolved from a heavily Carcass-inspired goregrind outfit in their demo days to a deathgrind band with their debut album Gore Metal, and finally a pure death metal band."
Y'all welcome |

08.01.25 | The year is 1984. I first discover Ride The Lightning in November of the year. It was snowing outside and it was very cold men. I put record on,, It start with medival style music, and then when in calm place? Thunder guitar take control! This is great start for this record men. Lars Ulrich is the drums for this record and at end of song, he is the lightning with bass pedal and snare madness! After this song the name of record is a song and plays well. For Whom The Bell Tolls is up and it deliver best of Metallica riff by Cliff Burton. He play guitar men? hhehehe this is bass! I can believe this. Then best Metallica song is playing,, soft music and guitars. Fade To Black is hitting me hard and it build up with epic solo and chill feeling of depressed. Trapped Under Ice brings energy back to the life here with great open riff by James Hetfield. Escape is starting up and Kirk Hammett is playing on the leads here men. This is song of good structure and deliver a good fade out ending. Here we go men! This moment we wait for! Creeping Death! This song is Metallica well known effort and it is personal favorite of my listens today. This song is about the times of Bible in Christian lore men. I believe this happen and is scary song. The end is no vocals and has great style for close the album up. The Call Of Ktulu is epic! Dave Mustaine has wrote this song when he was playing with the Metallica men,, if you did know. The last riff of song end this record and it is best way to ever end. I have never listen to better ending for any recording and I listen to many metal! This is all I say about Ride The Lightning. Thank for reading and apology for english is not good. |

08.01.25 | Band transcends genre, and cultural norms. At their worst, they are a pop band breaking the mold for what is pop in its contemporary form. In an era of pop where songs are only getting shorter, and song structures more simplistic, Sleep Token songs just get longer and more adventurous. The band is barely metal at this point, but I simply don't care. They are genre fluid in its most purist form. No matter what they write, their melodies are always drenched in an undeniable regal divinity.

08.01.25 | what are u nerds talkin about now |
ThyCrossAwaits
08.01.25 | 4 and 5 are pretty objectively correct. I want to vouch for 6 because it’s my favorite D-Throne album but In the Nightside Eclipse exists…
Speaking of 4 there’s the classic examples in Venom and Dismember respectively releasing albums CALLED Black Metal and Death Metal, but I completely forgot that Manilla Road put out an album just called Metal in ‘82. |
budgie
08.01.25 | 6 prob the hardest to pick apart from 1, honestly think that filosofem might be the better nomination but blaze just has so much charisma |
brickhed
08.01.25 | budgie im still waiting for 5 djent albums and 8 deathcore albums |
budgie

ThyCrossAwaits

budgie
08.01.25 | jam ravishing grimness |
Muzz79
08.01.25 | 1 would be NWOBHM budgie? |
budgie
08.01.25 | i didnt want to get too silly with the subgenres |
ThyCrossAwaits
08.01.25 | budgie or RVAHC13 plz rec me more symph metal like Therion. I really really liked that but it's by far the subgenre I'm least familiar with.
P.S. I do think that NWOBHM vs. "heavy metal" is splitting hairs. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a significant band that fits the latter but not the former. |
budgie
08.01.25 | ive never heard anything that does what vovin does as well as vovin does it. the therion album that came out before vovin (theli) has a sick track that could have been on vovin (to mega therion) but the rest of the album isn't really on par |
RVAHC13
08.01.25 | @ThyCrossAwaits
Tristania - Beyond the Veil
Nightwish - Once
Haggard - And Thou Shalt Trust the Seer |
RVAHC13
08.01.25 | Wow I really cannot think of a Power Metal pick I’m satisfied with, I’m trying hard not to say Keeper of the Seven Keys lol |
SuzyC
08.02.25 | The only ones I almost agree with in this list are the albums by Pestilence and Alcest -> neither of those albums are my favorites by those bands. I wonder how good the albums I've never even heard of here are? |
budgie
08.07.25 | added funeral doom also best list |
RVAHC13
08.09.25 | BEST LIST |
brickhed
08.09.25 | love that there's genuine debate over subgenres in this joke list |
budgie
08.09.25 | doesn't surprise me someone like you would say that |
gabba
08.09.25 | jamming funeral doom is the next logical step after being tired of depressive suicidal black metal |
brickhed
08.09.25 | funeral doom can go pretty damn hard, would recommend. |
budgie
05.02.26 | why dont we listen to speed metal moer?????????????????????????????????????????? |
Kimm
05.02.26 | Wow, budg lowkey roasting me for Voyages when Kodama is his #1 blackgaze
I'm not even dissing it though, I do love that album |
budgie
05.02.26 | i have voyages 4.5 nothin to roast about it
what blackgaze can really compete with kodama? agape? |
NudeTayne
05.02.26 | this is all a little too djent sounding for my traditional sensibilities tbh |
Kimm
05.02.26 | I'll accept it
Deafheaven - 'Lonely People With Power' tho. Ngl I slept on it after Infinite Granite and only listened to it a couple of months ago and it blew my mind
Either that or MØL - 'DREAMCRUSH' (my leading contender so far for AOTY) |
Kimm
05.02.26 | I'd like to be very clear that I mean no disrespect to Alcest, they're one of my 5 "sacred" bands m/ |
NudeTayne
05.02.26 | Deafheaven seems like a djent cash grab to me personally |
budgie
05.02.26 | ic
i dont really care for the screamo side of blackgaze |
