| Alice Cooper Killer |
| Alice Cooper Hey Stoopid |
| Alice Cooper DaDa |
| Alice in Chains Jar Of Flies |
| Alice in Chains Dirt |
| Alice in Chains The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here |
| This record doesn't get the recognition it deserves. This is neck and neck with Dirt for me. |
| Ambush (SWE) Infidel |
These Swedes know exactly what they are doing. On Infidel, Ambush turns up the aggression
and takes no prisoners. Let's hope we don't have to wait another 5 years for the next
record. |
| Amon Amarth With Oden on Our Side |
| now this is what I'm fuckin talkin about |
| Amon Amarth Twilight of the Thunder God |
| Angel Witch Angel Witch |
| Angra Temple of Shadows |
| Annihilator Alice In Hell |
| Quite possibly the best produced thrash album ever recorded. The songs are fucking amazing too. |
| Annihilator King of the Kill |
| Anthem Gypsy Ways |
| Anthem Bound to Break |
| Anthem Black Empire |
| Anthem Burning Oath |
| This album fucked my mom, and I'm not even made about it. Struggle Action fucking DECIMATES. |
| Anthem Nucleus |
Just as fantastic as I expected. Anthem keeps this collection of re-recordings
familiar, yet still manages to make it fresh and exciting. I'm glad they didn't rely on
their biggest hits, and decided to focus on the underrated gems of their latter day
catalog. |

| Black Sabbath Headless Cross |
| A highlight in Black Sabbath's already impressive discography. If Dio was on vocals this would have a 4+ average on this site and you know it. Purists seriously need to stop riding Ozzy and Dio's dicks so hard and actually give this a listen. One of the best albums Sabbath have ever released. |

| Bloodbound War of Dragons |
| Hot damn, this is some good shit! Dragons are cool. |
| Blue Oyster Cult Fire of Unknown Origin |
| Blue Oyster Cult Cultösaurus Erectus |
| Bow Wow (JPN) Warning from Stardust |
| Among the best Japanese metal albums of the 80s. It just hits different. |
| Bow Wow (JPN) Ancient Dreams |
| An excellent collection rerecorded tracks from their early career. The newer, heavier production on this album really does breath new life into these tracks, with every single song being noticeably improved upon. |
| Brainfever You |
| You |
| Brainstorm Downburst |
| Brazen Abbot Live And Learn |

| Chris Stapleton Traveller |
| Cinderella Night Songs |
| Conception Parallel Minds |
| Coroner Mental Vortex |

| Coverdale and Page Coverdale / Page |
| Crimson Glory Crimson Glory |
| Cryptosis Bionic Swarm |
| Wow, this is really good. Why can't more modern thrash be like this? |
| Crystal Ball In the Beginning |
| Crystal Eyes Starbourne Traveler |
| One hell of a comeback record. All killer, no filler. A 3.3 for this album is absolutely ludicrous |
| Danzig Danzig II: Lucifuge |
| Dark Moor The Gates of Oblivion |
| Death Individual Thought Patterns |
| Death Human |
| Death Angel The Evil Divide |
| Deep Purple Machine Head |
| While I don't think it's QUITE as good as it's reputation lead me to believe, I can't deny just how consistent and satisfying Machine Head is. |
| Deep Purple Perfect Strangers |
| Seriously can't believe I used to dislike this album in middle school. Such a foolish 12 year old I was. |
| Deep Purple Burn |
| I will forever stand by my opinion that Burn is on par with In Rock and Machine Head. he title track is also my all-time favorite DP track. So fuckin good. |
| Deep Purple Purpendicular |
| For the second time Deep Purple show us they don't need Blackmore to make a kickass rrecord. This album has a little bit of everything, but never once feels unfocused of reclectic. Definitely up there with their best material. |
| Deep Purple Whoosh! |
| Wow, this kinda blew me away. Easily their best since Perpendicular |
| Def Leppard High 'N' Dry |
| Demon The Unexpected Guest |
| Stellar follow-up to their already fantastic debut. Quintessential NWOBHM |
| Demon Night of the Demon |
| This is the album I never knew I needed. I'm gonna be jamming this all October. |
| Destruction Mad Butcher |
| I absolutely dumbfounded how 4 of the best tracks this band ever recorded were never included on an actual full length release. |
| Destruction Cracked Brain |
| Fuck you, this is my favorite Destruction album. |
| Dethklok Dethalbum II |
| I'm so glad I started watching Metalocalypse. This shit is absolutely fantastic. |
| Diamond Head The Coffin Train |
What I ended up listening to was not I expected from this album at all. The short headbangers are
great, but where this album really hits it's stride is in the thick atmospherics of the deeper
cuts like "The Sleeper" and "When We Burn". |
| Dio Holy Diver |
| Dio Magica |
| Dire Straits Brothers In Arms |
| DMX It's Dark and Hell Is Hot |
| Dokken Tooth And Nail |
| Dokken The Lost Songs: 1978-1981 |
| Why the fuck were these songs never released? This is easily some of Don's best work. No shit, this is legitimately superb. |
| Don Dokken Up From The Ashes |
| 5th Dokken album. On par with their first 4 albums, and almost surpasses them on a couple occasions. I Crash and Burn all day, baby. |
| DragonForce Reaching into Infinity |
| Dream Evil Dragon Slayer |
| As far as power metal goes, this may just have the best production the genre has to offer. Grandiose, epic, cheesy, uplifting, and a shit ton of fun. Love it to death. |
| Dream Theater Awake |
| Dynazty The Dark Delight |
| Eclipse (SWE) Monumentum |
| Eclipse (SWE) Paradigm |
| Yeah, this is pretty wicked. Not a dud in the bunch |
| Edge of Sanity Crimson II |
| Edge of Sanity Crimson |
| Edguy Hellfire Club |
| Edguy Vain Glory Opera |
| Edguy Mandrake |
| Edguy Rocket Ride |
| Criminally underrated and misunderstood record. The shift from traditional power metal, to a hard rock-oriented sound may come across a little jarring upon the first listen, but where this album really shines is with it's variety and experimentation. No two songs sound alike, with each having it's own memorable quirks to keep you fully engaged. |
| Elegy (NLD) Lost |
| Emperor In the Nightside Eclipse |

| Iron Curtain (ESP) Savage Dawn |
| Ah hell yeah, the music definitely matches that badass artwork. THIS is how you do throwback metal right here. |
| Iron Maiden Powerslave |
| Working their way up, Maiden finally releases a worthwhile album with Bruce. One of Maiden's strongest efforts of the 80's. |
| Iron Maiden Brave New World |
| Great return of Bruce and one of the best post Blaze albums Maiden has released. Only issue is that the running times of the songs started to linger too long. This would be an issue that would plague future Maiden releases. |
| Iron Maiden Empire Of The Clouds |
| Jag Panzer Ample Destruction |
| Apt title, this thing fucking slaughtered me. |
| Journey Escape |
| The quintessential feel good album. Nothing deep or thought provoking on here, but that's what makes it so enjoyable. |
| Judas Priest Screaming For Vengeance |
| Judas Priest Ram It Down |
| Judas Priest Unleashed In The East |
| Judas Priest The Complete Albums Collection |
| Judas Priest Invincible Shield |
| While not quite on the level of Firepower, Invincible Shield is still an incredibly impressive showcase of pure metal magic from a band that has been kicking for over half a century. Do yourself a favor and skip those bonus tracks, though.r |
| Kairos Queen of the Hill |
| This is good, damn good. I'll have to check out their debut now. |
| Kalmah Swampsong |

| Kansas Point of Know Return |

| King Diamond Abigail |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard I'm In Your Mind Fuzz |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Infest the Rats' Nest |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Omnium Gatherum |
| Long as hell, but totally worth it. So many great ideas and sounds present here, and all of them work surprisingly well. The fact that KGLW can pull off two fun rap numbers just goes to show that there isn't a single genre they tackle convincingly. |
| Kingdom Come In Your Face |
| KISS Rock And Roll Over |
| KISS Hotter Than Hell |
| KISS Creatures Of The Night |

| Magnum On The 13th Day |
| Magnum The Serpent Rings |
| Real shit? This is one of their best albums. Modern Magnum is a force to be reckoned with. |
| Manilla Road Open the Gates |
| This album kicks Crystal Logic's ass, and you know it. |
| Manilla Road The Courts of Chaos |
| Although albums like Mystification and The Deluge are great, this album right here was the moment where Manilla Road took their sound to the next level. Not quite as heavy as their earlier material, but far more satisfying in my humble opinion. |
| Manowar Kings Of Metal |
| Marshall Law Power Game |
| Imagine if Skid Row continued making good music after Slave to the Grind, and threw in a little double bass drumming. That's basically what this is, and it fucks beyond belief. |
| Masterplan Masterplan |
| Mastodon Once More 'Round the Sun |
| Mayhem Daemon |
Hold up, this thing slaps way harder than I was expecting. I might have to start getting into
black metal now. |
| Meat Loaf Bat Out of Hell |
| Meat Loaf Bad Attitude |
This album slays from front to back. It may not be as ambitious as the "Bat Out Of Hell"
saga, but the songs are direct, infectious and ridiculously fun. Probably my favorite record
from Mr. Loaf. |
| Mega Colossus Riptime |
| Megadeth Rust In Peace |
| Megadeth Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good! |
| Megadeth So Far, So Good... So What! |
| Mekong Delta Lurking Fear |
| The peak of thrash comebacks right here. Probably the greatest thing they've ever released. |
| Mercyful Fate Melissa |

This band is fucking amazing. I don't even listen to EP's but their debut was so kickass I
had to. |
| Moonlight Sorcery Horned Lord of the Thorned Castle |
| God this album is fucking awesome. Probably gonna be my pick for album of the year; borderline perfect. |
| Morbid Angel Altars of Madness |
| Morbid Saint Spectrum of Death |
| Motley Crue Shout At The Devil |
| Motorhead Overkill |
| Motorhead Another Perfect Day |
| Motorhead Rock 'N' Roll |
| Motorhead Kiss Of Death |
| For my money, this is the best Motorhead record of the 21st century. Inferno isn't far behind it though. |
| Mr. Bungle Mr. Bungle |
| "My Ass Is on Fire" sent me into a deep fit of psychosis. I'm still not sure if that is a positive or not. |
| Narnia Narnia |
| Some of the most glorious cheese I've heard in a loooooong time. I love it. |
| Night Ranger Dawn Patrol |
| Nightwish Once |
| Ninja Sex Party NSFW |
| Nocturnus The Key |
| I'd be a death metal fan if more death metal sounded like this. What a journey this was. |
| Nuclear Assault Handle with Care |
| Opeth Still Life |
| nice |
| Orden Ogan Easton Hope |
| Orden Ogan To the End |
| Orden Ogan The Order of Fear |
| Orden Ogan bringing the fuckin' HEAT. Some of the most bombastic shit I've heard all year; arena power metal at its finest. |
| Overkill The Electric Age |
| Overkill The Grinding Wheel |
| Re-listened to this today, and it's somehow even better than I remembered it being when I bought it back in 2017. 2010's Overkill could do no wrong, I swear. |
| Ozzy Osbourne No More Tears |
| Ozzy Osbourne Diary Of A Madman |
| Petra On Fire! |
| Pink Floyd The Wall |
| They did it. They actually did it. Pink Floyd made an album I actually love. Took a long time to get here, but I finally found a Pink Floyd album I'd personally consider to be exceptional. |
| Powermad Absolute Power |
| Why do so many prog-thrash artists only release 1 or 2 albums? |
| Powerwolf The Sacrament of Sin |
| Praying Mantis Predator In Disguise |
| Good stuff! I come back to this one a lot. It hits that sweet spot of cheesy melodic goodness that I can't get enough of. Tracks like 'Can't See the Angels' and 'Borderline' are immortal jams. |

| Riot V Armor Of Light |
| Rocka Rollas The Road to Destruction |
| Royal Hunt Paradox |
| Running Wild Death Or Glory |
| Running Wild Port Royal |
| Running Wild Victory |
| Disgustingly low user score for a fantastic album. Not only does Victory have some of the biggest hooks in Running Wild's discog, it is also home to a plethora of catchy riffs and absolutely crushing production job. In need of some serious re-evaluation. |
| Rush 2112 |
| Rush Power Windows |
| Best Rush album. |
| Rush Clockwork Angels |
| Sabaton Carolus Rex |
| Sabaton Heroes |
| Sabaton The Great War |
| Contender for my album of the year. Sabaton end the 2010's with the biggest bang possible. |
| Sabire Gates Ajar |
| The best modern trad-metal I've heard in years. Do yourself a favor and check this out; these guys are the real deal. |
| Sacred Warrior Master's Command |
| I bet Jesus loves this album, because I know I do. |
| Satan Court in the Act |

| Saxon Denim And Leather |
| Saxon Power And The Glory |
| Killer shit right here. The Eagle Has Landed is a fuckin' tour de force. |
| Saxon Dogs Of War |
| Nope, I don't get the hate for this one. This is pretty much an all killer, no filler record for me. |
| Saxon Thunderbolt |
| 4 years later and Thunderbolt still holds up as one of Saxon's most consistent and varied records. Absolutely killer in every regard. |

| And then they broke up, never to release another album again. |
| Slipknot We Are Not Your Kind |
| After 25 years, Slipknot finally gets it. By far the best thing they've ever released. |
| Smoulder Violent Creed of Vengeance |
| Excellent release. Has that vintage metal sound , but manages to still sound fresh and exciting. |
| Sodom M-16 |
| Best Sodom album? Probably. |
| Sonata Arctica Silence |
| Sonata Arctica Winterheart's Guild |
| Soundtrack (Film) Napoleon Dynamite |
| Stallion Slaves Of Time |
| Much better than their last record. This thing slaps hard |
| Stormwarrior Heading Northe |
| Stratovarius Episode |

| Stryper To Hell With The Devil |
| Suicidal Tendencies Lights...Camera...Revolution |
| Survivor Vital Signs |
| Tankard Zombie Attack |

| Tankard R.I.B. |
| This is one hell of a comeback. Not often that a band this old puts out arguably their best album this late in their career. |
| Tarot Follow Me Into Madness |
| Tarot Spell Of Iron |
| One of those underground classics that deserve to be unearthed for the masses to hear. Magical stuff. |
| Tesla Mechanical Resonance |
| Testament The Gathering |
| Testament The New Order |
| Testament Brotherhood of the Snake |
| Borderline perfect modern thrash record. BOTS takes the accessibility and catchiness from "The Ritual" and blends it with the relentless aggression of "The Gathering" to create a modern thrash classic. Every aspect of what makes Testament great is on full display here, and it's absolutely glorious. |
| Testament Para Bellum |
| Para Bellum is the sound of Testament reaching their final and most glorious form. The fact a band can put out an album this sonically adventurous and fresh so far into their career is genuinely astounding. |
| The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band |
| Okay, fine. I may hate Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, but everything else on here is really good... |

| The Rolling Stones Beggars Banquet |
| The Rolling Stones Some Girls |
| Theocracy Mirror of Souls |

| Thrasher Burning at the Speed of Light |
| The textbook definition of 80s metal. I don't give a shit if it is derivative, it's fucking sweet. |
| Tilt (JPN) The Beast In Your Bed |
| One of those hidden gems that makes treasure hunting worth it. Any fans of classic hard rock/metal absolutely need to check this one out. "Stick Into Yours" might have the NASTIEST opening riff I've ever heard. |
| TNT Intuition |
| Toto The Seventh One |
| Best Toto album by a long shot. |
| Toxik World Circus |
| Triumph Never Surrender |
| Trivium Shogun |
| Shogun |
| Trivium In the Court of the Dragon |
| First Trivium album I've enjoyed since Shogun. Matt thankfully keeps his earth-shatteringly rgeneric clean vocals to a minimum, which really helps. I thought I was done with them after rWTDMS, but this pleasantly surprised me. The 2nd half is superb. |
| Turbo Kawaleria Szatana |

| Twilight Force Tales of Ancient Prophecies |

| Vektor Terminal Redux |

| Virgin Steele The Marriage Of Heaven And Hell: Part II |
| Virgin Steele The Marriage Of Heaven And Hell: Part I |

YES. They did it. THEY FUCKING DID IT. Real talk, this might be their best album. Some REALLY good
shit here. |
| Volcano (JPN) Violent |

When it comes to modern thrash, these guys are the real deal. Definitely make sure you
check this out, you wont regret it. |
| Vulture (DE) Sentinels |
| W.A.S.P. W.A.S.P. |
| W.A.S.P. The Crimson Idol |
| Warbringer Weapons of Tomorrow |
| I'm not a huge fan of most modern thrash bands, but Warbringer is certainly an exception. Think we're looking at a modern classic right here. |
| Warfield With The Old Breed |
| One of the best modern thrash albums I've heard in quite some time. Excellent production, stellar riffs, vicious Sodom-esque vocals, and a surprising amount of melody. Classic shit right here |
| Weird Al Yankovic Dare To Be Stupid |
| White Wizzard Infernal Overdrive |
| Whitesnake Slide It In |
| Whitesnake Forevermore |
| The fact David Coverdale released an album THIS good in 2011 is nothing short of astounding. Every single song slaps, and the overall product stands toe to toe with their best records. |

| AC/DC Ballbreaker |
| AC/DC Blow Up Your Video |
| AC/DC Live |
| AC/DC Power Up |
We all know AC/DC have never, and will never change. But with that being said, this album
is a notable jump in quality, and easily the best thing they've released in nearly 40
years. Dumb fun, but fun regardless. Submit to your inner middle-aged dad and have a good
time. |

| Alcatrazz Born Innocent |
| Graham Bonnet is such an underrated songwriter. Some really great stories on this record. |
| Alestorm Back Through Time |
| Rating this a 4 feels kind of ridiculous, but it was such a fun listen. This album is so unapologetic in its retardation that I can't help but admire the sheer amount of goofiness on display. |
| Alestorm Sunset on the Golden Age |
| Okay, this one is actually good unironically. |
| Alice Cooper Love It To Death |
| Alice Cooper Dragontown |
| Alice Cooper Welcome to My Nightmare |
| Alice Cooper Constrictor |
| Alice Cooper Special Forces |
I fucking love this record. This and DaDa make Cooper's "blackout" era more than worth a

solid debut that I can give a hearty recommendation. |

| It's good, but it's sure as hell not album of the year. |
| Bloodbound Rise of the Dragon Empire |
| Surprisingly good, not a dud on the record. Throw this on while playing Dark Souls and you're set. |
| Bloodbound Tales From The North |
| Not reinventing the wheel by any means, but it didn't need to. By playing it safe Bloodbound ensured that almost every song on here is a banger. |

| MASSIVE leap in quality from the 3 albums that proceeded it. Note a huge fan of the guitar tone, but the songs themselves are great. |
| Bullet Storm of Blades |
| BulletBoys BulletBoys |
| Buried Realm The Dormant Darkness |

| Coroner No More Color |
| Coroner R.I.P. |

| Cradle of Filth Midian |
| Cradle of Filth Existence Is Futile |
| Best Cradle of Filth album hands down. |
| Crimson Glory Transcendence |

| Cryptosis Celestial Death |
| Not Bionic Swarm good, but definitely a huge step above most modern thrash. Some pretty interesting compositions to be found here, with an unexpected, but welcomed sonic shift towards a more atmospheric death metal style.r |
| Crystal Ball Hard Impact |
| These guys seriously need more attention. Imagine early Stratovarius but it's actually good. |
| Crystal Ball Déjà-Voodoo |

| Deep Purple Fireball |
| The bastard middle child sandwiched between the two big guns is still a total beast in its own right. |
| Deep Purple Come Taste The Band |
| This album fucking rocks dude. Replacing Blackmore was a Herculean task, but Bolin fucking SLAYS on here. It's no 'In Rock' or 'Machine Head', but it isn't too far behind. This record is some serious need of reassessment. |
| Deep Purple Stormbringer |
| The Coverdale era of Deep Purple is sickeningly underrated. Stormbringer funks AND fucks. |
| Deep Purple Slaves And Masters |
I love this album. I understand why people don't like it, but it hits all the notes I
wanted from a Joe Lynn Turner fronted Deep Purple album. It may not sound like the band's
classic output, but it showed Deep Purple could make a damn good AOR record. |
| Deep Purple Now What?! |

| You know, for a gimmick album, this is actually really fucking good. |
| Dethklok Dethalbum IV |
| Don't trust these dweebs, this album fucks. |

| Glad I revisited this one; it's way better then I remembered. A successful swift kick to the nuts that permeates with an unapologetically wicked attitude. |

| A song about John Carpenter's The Thing? Yeah, count me in. |
| Exciter Exciter |
| Exhorder Mourn the Southern Skies |
| Never really liked Exhorder's first two albums, but this one is solid from top to bottom. Contender for thrash album of the year. |
| Exodus Bonded by Blood |
| Killer songs, but Christ those vocals are rough. Not to speak ill of the dead, but Paul Baloff seriously couldn't sing. |
| Exodus Force of Habit |
| Exodus Pleasures of the Flesh |
| I'd say the songs aren't quite as strong as BbB, but the vocals are 100% better. This kinda revens it out, keeping them on par with each other. |
| Exodus Persona Non Grata |
| I really don't understand why people are hating on the vocals so much. He sounds just like he did on Blood In, Blood Out... The material on here is stronger than the stuff on that album too. Their best since Tempo. |
| Exumer Rising from the Sea |
| I actually prefer this to the debut |

| High energy power metal with a distinct focus on melody and hooks. Among the best 2022 PM albums released thus far. |
| Frozen Crown War Hearts |
| I've been pretty lukewarm to this band for a long time, but they finally managed to impress me. Their best record to date. |
| Frozen Land Out Of The Dark |
| I really enjoyed this; that last track is somethin else man. I can safely say I've never heard anything like it on a power metal record. |

| I'll be honest; I think I enjoy Gojira's more streamlined sound in comparison to their early work. |
| Grave Digger Rheingold |
| Grave Digger Symbol of Eternity |
| Green Jelly 333 |

| Harem Scarem Mood Swings |
| Haunt (USA-CA) Mosaic Vision |

| This band is pretty hit or miss for me, but this new album really hits. One of their best |
| Havok Time Is Up |
| He Is Legend White Bat |
| He Is Legend Endless Hallway |
| I genuinely cannot categorize this into any established genre that I'm aware of. |
| Heathen Victims of Deception |
| Heaven and Hell The Devil You Know |
| Heavy Load Death Or Glory |
| A glorious little hidden gem from the early 80s. The band isn't super tight performance wise, but the spirit and love for the genre are on full display, and it's extremely charming. Imagine a more downtempo Manilla Road with better vocals. |
| Heavy Load Stronger Than Evil |
| Helloween The Dark Ride |
| Helloween Keeper of the Seven Keys: The Legacy |
| Helloween Master Of The Rings |
| Helloween Rabbit Don't Come Easy |
| Helloween Giants & Monsters |
| Happy to report the self titled wasn't a fluke, and the chemistry the band had on said album is very much intact. Definitely a worthy follow-up, even if the production is a little muddy in places.r |

| In Flames Come Clarity |
| In Flames Foregone |
| Insane Clown Posse The Great Milenko |
| Insane Clown Posse Riddle Box |
| Insane Clown Posse The Amazing Jeckel Brothers |
| Yeah, I definitely fuck with this. Most of it is over-the-top comedic horrorcore; but tracks like Echo Side are genuinely good in an unironic way. |
| Iron Maiden Dance Of Death |
| The last time Maiden sounded like they were actually having fun. Take off the last 3 tracks, and you've got one hell of a Maiden album. Doesn't top Brave New World, but it does stand as one of their best post-Blaze era releases. |
| Iron Maiden Iron Maiden |
| Great debut from metal legends. Only fault is the two slower songs that detract from the album's feel. |
| Iron Maiden Fear Of The Dark |
| Easily Maiden's most varied and interesting record to date. Not everything on here lands, but when it does, it's fantastic. Had the band cut a couple filler tracks, this may have landed a spot in my top 5 Maiden albums. |
| Iron Maiden The X Factor |
| Fiercely underrated album. Only hated because it's not Bruce, but that's why the album succeeds in being such a great listen. "Sign of the Cross" is the best Iron Maiden song ever. |
| Iron Maiden Live After Death |
| Iron Maiden Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son |
| Man I used to think this album was the shit back in the day. I still think it's a solid Maiden release, but any time those self indulgent prog ballads kick in I kinda wanna ralph. The more times I revisit it, the less I like it. |
| Iron Maiden The Book Of Souls |
The last two albums were weak as hell. Let's hope they found out how to pace songs or else we'll
be subjected to an 18 minute song with two riffs.
Update: This album really exceeded my expectations. Maiden has finally figured out how to pad out
songs running times, making every second of each song feel necessary. Every song fits together
like a puzzle. I think a large fact of the albums greatness is the fact that Harris was absent
through most of the songwriting process, allowing the rest of the bands writing abilities to
really shine. While not perfect, it's immensely satisfying to hear Maiden with this much energy
again. Overall a damn good album, and their best since 'The X Factor'. |
| Iron Savior Iron Savior |
| Iron Savior Battering Ram |
| Iron Savior Skycrest |
| Iron Savior Firestar |
| Isiliel Moonbow Rebellion |
| There are more than a few dry spots to be found here, but the highlights are absolutely fantastic. 'Black Moon' and 'Serpent's Aubade' are some of best tracks I've heard in 2025 thus far. |
| Jag Panzer Mechanized Warfare |
| Jag Panzer Age of Mastery |
| Jag Panzer Chain of Command |
| Jag Panzer Shadow Thief |
| Jani Liimatainen My Father's Son |
| An interesting, surprising and sonically dynamic power metal album in 2022? I must be dreaming. |
| Journey Infinity |
| Journey Frontiers |
| Journey Freedom |
| I was not expecting this to be any good at all, yet here I am giving this a 4. Even though its 20 minutes too long, this is probably their strongest record since Frontiers in 85. |
| Judas Priest Turbo |
| Judas Priest Redeemer Of Souls |
| The More listens, the more I like it. Best Priest album since Painkiller. |

| Very nice. I still like Rat's Nest more, but the boys definitely took more risks this time around, which I appreciate greatly. |

| Iron Eagle is a banger for the ages, and the rest is solid collection of high energy AOR. |

| Kreator Gods of Violence |
| Krokus Heart Attack |
| I don't know if I'm just easy to impress, but I really dig this. Great party rock record |
| Krokus The Blitz |
| An average of a 2.8? The fuck are you guys smoking? This is a killer hard rock record. |
| Krokus Hardware |
| Krokus Hellraiser |
| Kryptos Force Of Danger |
| Force of Danger may be a little more streamlined than it's predecessor, but the overall experience is a tad better in my opinion. The title track sounds like it came straight off an Ambush record, which is never a bad thing. |

| An adventurous little record. It's all over the place stylistically, but these mad lads actually manage to make it work. Bonus points for capping it at 8 tracks; wish more bands would stop overcramming their albums. |

| Marshall Law pulled off a perfect 5 album discog run, consisting of nothing but bangers. Incredibly impressive. |
| Masquerade (SWE) Masquerade |
| Excellent glam metal record with the sad fate of being released in 1992. Fans of harder edged hair metal like Dokken and Ratt definitely need to give this a listen. |

| Their last album was a step in the right direction, and this record completed their transition back into solid music. On another note, Buzz kinda sounds like Brett Hinds on this album. |

| Ninja Sex Party Strawberries and Cream |
| Ninja Sex Party Attitude City |

| Their best since Attitude City. Most of the songs got a chuckle out of me, and Nut Heat legitimately made me bust a gut laughing. |

This album needed to be as good as it is to get the foul taste of Damnation out of my mouth.
You redeemed yourself Opeth. |
| Opeth The Last Will and Testament |
| Alright, welcome back Opeth. No more prog rock albums, okay? |
| Orden Ogan Vale |
| Orden Ogan Ravenhead |
| Deaf Among the Blind is THE jam, my friends. |
| Outworld (UY) Sky Keeper |
| Apparently this album was made by one dude. I am genuinely impressed with how cohesive and fleshed out the material is here. |
| Overkill Taking Over |
| Overkill Feel the Fire |
| Overkill White Devil Armory |
| Overkill The Wings of War |
Yet again, my opinion on this album was grown quite a bit since the last time I listened to
it. It's undeniably their weakest record from the 2010's, but it's still leaps and bounds
above what most other thrash acts are releasing nowadays. Good luck finding a band this old
releasing music with this much intensity.
*Bumping this up from a 3.5 to a 4. |
| Owlbear Feather and Claw |
| Definitely an Owlbear situation going on here |
| Oxygen Destroyer Guardian of the Universe |
| kaiju metal always hits |
| Ozzy Osbourne Blizzard Of Ozz |
| Palantir Chasing a Dream |
| I enjoyed this quite a bit. Reminds me of vintage Stratovarius with it's emphasis on melody and instrumentation, but with a refreshing amount of restraint which is hard to come by these days. |
| Pantera Power Metal |
| Great album to end a career on. Shame they never made any more music after this... |

| Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here |
| Finally, a Pink Floyd album I understand the hype behind. |
| Pink Floyd Meddle |
| The opening track is dope and 'Echoes' is amazing, but everything in between shouldn't be there. With that being said, those two songs are enough for me to actually recommend this album to people like myself, who don't enjoy prog. |
| Pink Floyd A Momentary Lapse Of Reason |
| I am not a Pink Floyd fan by any means, but this is easily my favorite Pink Floyd record. Doesn't sound much like traditional PF, which is probably the reason I like it so much. |
| Poltergeist (CHE) Depression |
| One of those albums I listened to because I liked the cover art. Great artwork, and great record. |
| Poppy I Disagree (more) |
| These new tracks are some of Poppy's strongest material. I'd say keeping them off the initial release hurt it quite a bit. If you're gonna listen to any version this record, make it this one. |
| Portrait (SWE) Crossroads |
| Really enjoyable Fate worship. |
| Possessed Revelations of Oblivion |
| Wow, I didn't expect much going in, but I was blown away by how old-school and intense this sounded. |
| Power Quest Neverworld |
| Power Quest Magic Never Dies |
| Power Quest Sixth Dimension |
| PowerDream Beast Unleashed |
| This store brand Beast in Black album kinda fucks, not gonna lie. |
| Powerwolf Blood of the Saints |
| Powerwolf Call of the Wild |
| Okay, so I listened to this two years later, and for some reason it fucking slapped this time. Bumped from a 3 to a 4. |
| Powerwolf Interludium |
| For an album of leftovers, the material here is surprisingly awesome. Genuinely one of their strongest releases to date. |
| Praying Mantis Time Tells No Lies |
| Praying Mantis Legacy |
| Praying Mantis Forever in Time |
| Praying Mantis Gravity |
| Probably the band's most creative and varied release to date. Covers a lot of sonic ground, but still manages to be a cohesive package. |
| Praying Mantis Defiance |
| Color me impressed; I was not expecting this to be so good. The track "Standing Tall" is a strange, yet awesome little bit of sonic experimentation for a band that been around since the dawn of the NWOBHM. |
| Pretty Maids Spooked |
| An absolutely excellent collection of songs; the only issue is that there are a few too many. Cut about 5 to 10 minutes and this would definitely be one of their best. |

| Rage Soundchaser |
| Rage Ghosts |
| Rage XIII |
| Rage Secrets In A Weird World |

| One hell of a comeback, even if it was a one off. That guitar tone fucking RIPPPPS. |

| This album went a lot harder than it needed to. No joke, one of their best. |
| Razor Shotgun Justice |

| Rob Zombie The Sinister Urge |
| Rocka Rollas Celtic Kings |
| Rough Silk Beyond the Sundown |
| Rough Silk ditch the more experimental elements of the previous two albums and get heavy. Definitely a good choice. |
| Rough Silk Roots Of Hate |
| Now THIS is a hidden gem right here. It's like if Ratt made a power metal album, and it somehow works. |
| Rough Silk Mephisto |
| The sonic progression of this band needs to be studied. It's crazy how much these guys shake up their sound on each album. |

| Running Wild Blazon Stone |

| Running Wild The Rivalry |
| Running Wild Blood On Blood |
| If you would have told me Running Wild would release one of the best albums of their career in 2021, I would have laughed in your face and called you a complete retard. But here we are in 2021, with Running Wild releasing a late-career opus that rivals their strongest material from the 80's and 90's. |

| Savatage Dead Winter Dead |

| Savatage The Dungeons are Calling |
| Saxon Lionheart |
| Good album, but it's definitely a bit overrated; there are better 21st century Saxon records readily available. |
| Saxon Crusader |
| Much better than I remember it being. Production is a bit thin, but the tunes are pretty tight. |
| Saxon Wheels Of Steel |
| Saxon Destiny |
| I hate the "softer = shit" mindset most people have in regards to this record. Sure, it's not much of a metal album, but it's one hell of an AOR album. |
| Saxon Metalhead |
| Saxon Strong Arm Of The Law |
| Saxon The Inner Sanctum |
| Scanner Mental Reservation |
| Bro, wtf is wrong wit you guys? This is a stellar release from Scanner. A couple duds towards the end, but the album as a whole is really fucking solid. |

| Striker Stand In The Fire |
| Striker Play To Win |
A much more cohesive and finished product than their previous release only a year prior. A small
gripe I have with the record lies in it's lyrics and how many times the phrases "Into the night"
or "Through the night" are used. The album has a bit of a pacing issue, with the tempo's lacking
variation, and the drum work, while impressive on a technical level, is a little too similar from
track to track. However, Striker manages to deliver the goods when it comes to killer production,
sheer intensity, technical ability, and raw power.
Best Tracks - Position of Power, Play to Win, Heavy is the Heart |

Absolutely retarded, but in the most fun way possible. You will have a great time with this

| Tankard The Tankard |

| Haven't listened to these guys in a long time, but I'm glad I decided to give this album a shot. 'How Long' is one of the catchiest songs I've heard in months. |

| A charming little hard rock/heavy metal gem from the early 80's that's definitely worth a listen. |

| Wow, I wasn't expecting this to be so good. Even against their other two outstanding classic records this holds up. I know Breaking Class may have left a bad taste in your mouth, but I assure you these guys got their shit together and delivered us a smorgasbord of unorthodox thrash goodness.r |
| Trastorned Into The Void |
| I love modern thrash that's actually good. |
| Traveler (CAN) Prequel to Madness |

| Why aren't these guys more popular? Their trad material and thrash material are both excellent and a lot of fun. |
| Turbo Smak Ciszy |
| Turnstile Time and Space |
| Twilight Force Heroes of Mighty Magic |
| Twilight Force At the Heart of Wintervale |
| While the longer compositions may be a little lackluster, I just can't deny how much fun this thing is. Twilight Force are THE premier act in modern power metal, so you really can't go wrong with giving this a listen. Feel-good metal at its finest. |

| I was pretty "meh" on their previous album, but they really stepped up their game for this new one. Consistently enjoyable from front to back. |
| Voivod Killing Technology |
| Voivod War And Pain |
| Very nice. The followup kinda sucks balls, but the debut is quite satisfying. |
| Voivod Target Earth |
| Voivod Synchro Anarchy |
| I don't think Voivod have any bad albums left in them. I guarantee that every new record they release from here to their retirement will be absolute bangers. |

| Apt title |
| W.A.S.P. The Last Command |
| Album fucks hard. Get on it you guys. |
| W.A.S.P. Golgotha |
| This is so solid. Dying For the World, Dominator and Babylon proved that W.A.S.P. were still a force to be reckoned with and Golgotha basically cemented them as living legends. I usually disapprove of bands taking themselves too seriously, but Blackie pulls it off with flying colors. Hopefully this isn't the last record they release, but if it is, it's a great note to go out on. |

| Another solid offering, but I think Tobi is getting a bit too comfortable with his songwriting. |
| Avantasia Here Be Dragons |
| Their strongest collection of songs since Ghostlights. It's nice to see Tobi becoming more direct with his songwriting, and not overdoing it with a ridiculous amount of guest stars. A lot less whimsical than the past few albums, and I think that really works to the record's advantage. Fingers crossed we get an Edguy album next, because we are long overdue. |

| good album |
| Baroness Gold And Grey |
| Bathory Twilight of the Gods |
| Battle Beast Steel |
| Battle Beast Bringer of Pain |
| Be'lakor The Frail Tide |
| Beast In Black Dark Connection |
The songwriting is a little weaker than the first 2 records, but it still delivers
everything you'd want from a Beast in Black album. There's also a song dedicated to Cyber
City Oedo: 808, which makes me very happy. |
| Believer Extraction From Mortality |
| Believer Transhuman |
| Belushi Speed Ball Stellkira |
| Black Sabbath Born Again |
| I don't give a shit if Gillan doesn't fit the band or how shitty the artwork is. This album has a song called "Digital Bitch", I'm kind of required to like it. |
| Black Sabbath The Eternal Idol |
| Black Sabbath Tyr |
| Black Sabbath 13 |
| Black Sabbath Forbidden (2024 Tony Iommi Remix) |
| I've never heard a remix that is as transformative as this one is. It is honestly a completely different experience, and a pretty enjoyable one at that. |
| Black Sites Exile |
| Not too shabby. Nothing on here is very memorable, but it's consistently decent throughout. |

| Well this was overhyped. Don't get me wrong, it's a solid album, but that user score made me think I was going to have my mind blown. |
| Bloodbound Unholy cross |
| Bloodbound Creatures of the Dark Realm |
| Nowhere near as strong as ROTDE, but it's still a solid hunk of melodic power metal. |
| Blue Oyster Cult Blue Öyster Cult |
| Blue Oyster Cult Spectres |
| Bob Catley Legends |
| Body Count Carnivore |
| Love these guys, and I really dig this new record. The boys in BC sound tight as fuck on here, leaving nothing to be desired in the performance department. I'd say may biggest critique would be the talking points and social criticisms aren't quite as sharp as they were on Bloodlust, and they seem to be treading over too much familiar water. |

| Deep Purple Who Do We Think We Are |
| The weakest Gillian record of the 70's but still lightyears ahead of the first 3 albums. This really isn't half bad. |
| Deep Purple inFinite |
Another enjoyable offering in post-Blackmore era. Some interesting ideas and concepts
present, but not too many memorable moments in the first 5 tracks. Thankfully, the second
half really picks up the slack and gives us some good shit. |
| Deep Purple =1 |
| Hey, this is good stuff; Deep Purple continue to exceed my expectations. I figured they'd be toast without Morse, but just like losing Blackmore, they haven't missed a beat. Keep on keeping on DP. |

Definitely a step in the right direction. They actually managed stick in a couple killer
tracks and few memorable riffs this time around. Standard, but solid modern thrash. |
| Detente Recognize No Authority |
| Dethklok Dethalbum III |
| A big step down from their previous album, but does get better on repeated listens. |
| Dethklok The Doomstar Requiem |
| I fucking hate musicals, but this was absolutely delightful. What a great way to end the series. |
| Diamond Head Canterbury |
| I kinda dig this, not gonna lie. However, I will attest that it probably shouldn't have been released as a Diamond Head album. |
| Diamond Head Diamond Head |
| Dio Killing The Dragon |
| Dio Dream Evil |
| Dire Straits Dire Straits |

| Underwhelming first half, but side two has some sick riffs. I'm glad I gave it a listen. |
| DragonForce Sonic Firestorm |
| DragonForce Extreme Power Metal |
| Fuck it, I had a lot of fun with this album. I don't think it's as good as their past 3 albums, but I certainly enjoyed my time with this one. |
| DragonForce Warp Speed Warriors |
| Utterly retarded. I love it. Ya'll need to lighten up and have some fun every once and a while; this was such a good time. |
| Dragonknight Legions |
| Gets off to a rocky start, but really redeems itself once it gets to the halfway mark. Worth checking out if you need a power metal fix. |

| These guys have a certain corny vibe that always hits a sweet spot for me. They aren't worried about being cool, they just want to give you goofy and catchy power metal that makes you smile; and God bless them for it. |

| I enjoyed it, but there was one glaring issue I had with it. I couldn't shake the feeling that these guys sounded like a satanic Greta Van Fleet. |
| Greta Van Fleet Anthem of the Peaceful Army |
| A consistent and catchy listen, albeit a tad uninspired and unoriginal. Lyrically the album touches upon all the lyrical tropes you would expect from an album of this nature. Despite the album's creative faults, it still remains a highly enjoyable listen with a very talented band to back it up. Hopefully they stray from the cut and paste Led Zeppelin format in the future. |
| Greta Van Fleet The Battle at Garden's Gate |
| Definitely a bit too long, but an solid throwback rock album. These guys aren't the musical disease that so many mouth breathers claim they are. |
| Greyhawk Thunderheart |
| Not sure why I enjoyed this as much as I did. |
| Grim Reaper Fear No Evil |
| Grim Reaper Walking in the Shadows |
| Grim Reaper At The Gates |
Was not expecting this to be so good. Steve's voice is for the most part intact, and 'The Hand
That Rocks the Cradle' is among one of the band's best songs. Kinda suffers from a top heavy track
list though. |

| Impellitteri Eye Of The Hurricane |
| Impellitteri Grin And Bear It |
| In Flames Reroute to Remain |
| Infernal Majesty None Shall Defy |
| Insane Clown Posse Fearless Fred Fury |
| These guys will always be a guilty pleasure of mine. Love their cheesy horror-themed lyrics, and their bombastic 90's style production. Probably their best since Jeckel Brothers. |
| Insomnium In the Halls of Awaiting |
| Starts with a bang, but lost my attention about 2/3's of the way through. Still solid though. |
| Iron Fire Beyond the Void |
Straightforward well performed Power Metal. That's all I wanted from this record, and it's exactly
what I got. |
| Iron Maiden Piece Of Mind |
| "Where Eagles Dare" may be one of my favorite Maiden songs, but this album also contains two of Maiden's weakest songs. "Die With Your Boots On" and "Quest For Fire" are completely abysmal efforts. |
| Iron Maiden Killers |
| Wrathchild and Killers are some of the best songs Maiden has to offer. |
| Iron Maiden Virtual XI |
| Underrated gem in Maiden's discography. Aside from the 10 minute abomination Angel and the Gambler, the rest of the material on here is really solid. |

Outside of Automation, I seriously didn't enjoy any of the singles for this album.
Thankfully, the rest of the stuff on here is pretty solid, if not a tad predictable.
Intrapsort was probably the biggest surprise on here, definitely the album's biggest
highlight. |

| Krokus Rock The Block |
| Krokus Dirty Dynamite |
| Kryptos Afterburner |
| Kuenring In Search of Paradise |
| While it doesn't hit as hard as Neon Nights did, they definitely upped their creativity with this album becoming borderline progressive in places. Really dig the production, with the bass being front-and-center in the mix. |

| Nightwish Yesterwynde |
| Definitely a big step up from their previous few albums. With that being said, I wish they would have spread out the harder hitting tracks a little more, instead of placing them all in the first half.r |
| Ninja Sex Party The Prophecy |
| I'm not a big fan of the newer overproduced sound they've acquired over the past few years; or those fucking covers albums they wont stop releasing. With that being said, I'm pleasantly surprised with this one. If there's one thing these guys haven't made me do in a while, it's laugh, but The Prophecy did make me chuckle a few times. I even enjoyed the normally unfunny skits they stick in between tracks on this one. |

| Another one man band, but a pretty promising one at that. While some of the tracks feel a little long-winded, they at least have enough going on to make the experience a positive one. Trimming the fat, and a better vocalist could have earned this a 4. |
| Paradox Heresy II - End of a Legend |

| I was really expecting to hate "fUcK cApItAlIsM" the album, but aside from the boring rdrudgery of 'Dogs', I actually really enjoyed this one. This is a classic case of rdisagreeing with a band's message, but enjoying the record regardless. |

| The album of leftovers they released last year was honestly stronger than this group of new tracks. That being said, there is plenty of fun to be had here; and the short runtime makes it a breeze to listen to. |

| Pretty solid from start to finish. However, it really isn't all too memorable, and I doubt I'll ever get the urge to listen to it again. |
| Q5 When the Mirror Cracks |
| Queen A Night at the Opera |
| Dude, I get Bohemian Rhapsody is a classic, but most of this album is passable pussy rock fluff. That hardened edge of the first 3 records is gone, and it is sorely lacking. I mean, this is still a solid album, but it is FAR from their best. |
| Queen A Day at the Races |
| Queen The Game |
| Queen The Works |
| Queen A Kind of Magic |
| Queen of Dreams Subnivium |
| Queensryche Condition Human |
| Queensryche The Verdict |
Strong release from the group, especially after a two decade long drought of good music from them.
Getting rid of Tate was the best decision they ever made. |

| The material here is definitely a big step up from their past few releases, but that 86 minute run-time is PUSHING it. Thankfully, most of the songs are short, punchy, and to the point; there just needed to be fewer of them. |
| Rainbow Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow |
| Rainbow Stranger In Us All |
| Even with rock's most generic frontman Doogie White at the mic, Blackmore still managed to cobble together a solid sendoff to his legendary side project. |

| Rainbow Difficult To Cure |
| Rammstein Sehnsucht |

| I love the fact that this band has the capability to release beautifully constructed, emotional tracks like Zeit, then turn around and stick a song with an immature title like "Fat Tits" on the same album. Absolutely glorious. |

| I don't know why I'm rating this so high. It's one of the most generic things I've heard all year, but it's an enjoyably inviting type of generic. It's like that one story your grandpa told you 100 times but it doesn't bother you because it's a good story.r |
| SkeleToon 1.21 Gigawatts Club |
| Dumb fun, but fun regardless. Way fucking better than The Goonies album they did a few years back. |
| Skid Row The Gang's All Here |
| What the fuck, I actually liked this? Guess miracles do happen. |
| Skull Fist Way of the Road |
| Much better after I revisited it. It still doesn't stack up to the first two records, and I miss the reverb, but the guitar work is killer and it is the perfect length. Give it another shot if the first listen didn't do it for you. |

| Goofy fun with a decent amount of melody and a HEAVY dose of cheese. |
| Tesla Into The Now |
| Testament Practice What You Preach |
| Testament Low |
| The general consensus is that The Ritual was the band selling out, and Low is a return to form, but I feel it's the other way around. If anything this album deliberately sounds like Pantera worship, while The Ritual has it's own unique brand of heavy metal. With that being said, Low is still immensely better than anything Pantera released post-CFH. |

| The Weeknd Dawn FM |
| I actually love The Weeknd, but I was kinda dreading listening to this. I was worried the oversaturation of 80's nostalgia the we've been subjected to for the past 5 years would ruin this album, but I was pleasantly surprised. The style on this record feels less like a gimmick and more like a genuine attempt at updating that late 70's early 80's disco/R&B sound. I also think the fact that I don't have to call in sick for work to finish the entire album in one sitting really helped with that. I can't stress how refreshing it is for a mainstream artist to release an album without 100 songs and 25 bonus tracks. |

| Uriah Heep Salisbury |
Everything after the first 2 tracks is great, but I definitely wouldn't consider this a
masterpiece by any stretch of the word.
Bird of Prey may also have the worst vocal melody I've ever heard in my entire fucking
life. |
| Uriah Heep Innocent Victim |
| Uriah Heep Conquest |

Huge step in the right direction. The fact this album has the same records as the two

| While I do wish they would go back to some heavier material, this album is nothing to scoff at. I can safely say I thoroughly enjoyed every song on this record. A pleasant surprise to say the least. |

| Alcatrazz V |
I'll be honest, I'm probably not gonna listen to this. Graham Bonnet is an amazing vocalist,
and the main reason I listened to Alcatrazz in the first place. The fact he was replaced by
the undisputed king of generic metal vocals, Doogie White is a fuckin' sin.
*update*
I hate saying this, but this is actually kinda decent. Sounds more like classic Rainbow than
Alcatrazz though. |

| Ambush (SWE) Evil in All Dimensions |
| Ambush's winning streak has sadly come to an end. Its a serviceable album with some fantastic solos, but the songwriting just isn't up to the band's usual standards. |
| Amon Amarth Fate of Norns |
| Amon Amarth Once Sent from the Golden Hall |

| By no means bad, but they leaned WAAAAAAAAAYYY too hard into the prog elements this time around. I recognize it's a quality album, it just isn't doing much for me. |

| The vocalist sounds like Bruce Dickinson on Fear of the Dark. Just Fear of the Dark. Very specific. |

| Hey, this isn't half bad. Lake of Fire and Death from above are some hard jams. |
| Battle Beast No More Hollywood Endings |
| Kinda blows it's load in the first 3 songs, and doesn't pick back up until The Golden Horde. The highlights are great, but the lows are deeper than the Mariana Trench. |

| This is just a solid hard rock record. Compared to early Sabbath it's not impressive, but on it's own merits its really enjoyable. |

machine and J Mascis is perpetually on the verge of sleep whilst in the vocal booth. |

| This album right here is the reason people won't give DragonForce a fair chance. |
| Dragonhammer Second Life |
| Dragonland The Power of the Nightstar |
| Not bad, but I'm definitely gonna forget I listened to it in a minute or two. |
| Dragony Viribus Unitis |
| Generic, but it gets the job done. |
| Dream Evil In The Night |
| Dream Evil Metal Gods |
| Dream Theater Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence |

| Lol, look at how stupid those boots look. |
| Durbin Screaming Steel |
| Okay, so apparently that dude who got 4th on American Idol a while back decided to make a trad/power metal album. It's generic as fuck, but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't fun. |

| Evergrey Monday Morning Apocalypse |
| A more than serviceable jab at commerciality. Not my preferred sound from the band, but it's not bad. |
| Evergrey Torn |
| Evergrey The Storm Within |
| Evergrey The Atlantic |
| Evergrey Theories Of Emptiness |
| Another decent offering from Evergrey, but I do feel the formula is wearing a bit thin. I really do hope they bring back some of the aggression from the first 3 albums, because their bite is almost completely gone at this point. |
| Excalion Once Upon A Time |
| Exciter Unveiling The Wicked |
| Exciter Kill After Kill |
| This album has one of the most botched production jobs I have ever heard. The guitars are thin and weak, and I'm pretty sure the band's bassist never showed up to the studio once during the entire recording process. It's a damn shame because this honestly could have been one of their best albums. |

| Gamma Ray To the Metal! |
| I don't know, this was the first album since "Powerplant" that I actually enjoyed most of. I guess the material is pretty generic, but it's the good kind of generic. It's a comfy, feel good album for me. |
| Gary Moore Back On The Streets |
| Ghost (SWE) Popestar |
| Ghost (SWE) Skeletá |
| It's growing on me. |
| Gorguts Considered Dead |
| Gorillaz Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez |
| A slightly better version of Humanz. Not sure why this one gets so much love, pretty devoid of anything memorable. |
| Gorillaz Cracker Island |
| A clear focus and sonic direction puts this above Song Machine by a considerable amount, but it still leaves a lot to be desired. As usual, the album has too many features, most of which are not crucial and add almost nothing to the tracks themselves. Skinny Ape is a fun track though. |
| Grand Magus Wolf God |
| Grave Digger Heart Of Darkness |
| The strongest 3 I can give, but I just can't bring myself to give it a 3.5... |
| Grave Digger Liberty or Death |
| Grave Digger Ballads of a Hangman |
| Grave Digger Clash of the Gods |
| Grave Digger The Living Dead |
| Grave Digger Fields of Blood |
| Great Master Montecristo |
| Green Jelly Cereal Killer Soundtrack |
| Hallas Isle of Wisdom |
| I like their sound, but this got a little too proggy for me. I'd probably give it a stronger rating if the songwriting was a little less self-indulgent. |
| Hammer King Kingdemonium |
| Not bad, but suffers from a bit of an identity crisis. I don't think the album leans far enough into the goofy cheese the title would have you assume. |
| Hammer King König und Kaiser |
| Wanted to give this a 3.5, but this album features one of the most blatantly obvious instances of plagiarism I've ever heard. The song 'War Hammer' is a note for note copy of 'Midnight Sun' by Helloween. |
| HammerFall Renegade |
| HammerFall Threshold |
| HammerFall (r)Evolution |
| HammerFall Built To Last |
| HammerFall Dominion |
| I should probably give 'Dominion' a lower rating, but I had a fun time listening to it. |

| Heavens Gate Menergy |
| Helloween Pink Bubbles Go Ape |
| Helloween 7 Sinners |
| Helloween My God-Given Right |
| Helstar Glory of Chaos |
| Helstar The Devil's Masquerade |
| A pretty derivative and uninspired record that luckily manages to end with a bang. The last track elevated this out of being completely mediocre. |
| Hexenhaus Dejavoodoo |
| Definitely a far-cry from their first 3 albums, but a decent hunk of tech thrash with some interesting ideas that don't entirely pan out. |
| Hibria Me7amorphosis |
| Hirax Raging Violence |
| Hollow Tower |
| Not bad, but it feels a bit incomplete. |
| House of Lords Come To My Kingdom |

| House of Lords New World - New Eyes |

| Insania The Great Apocalypse |
| This is in that grey area of being very professional and well put together, but also being incredibly forgettable. |
| Insomnium Since the Day It All Came Down |
| Iron Maiden The Number Of The Beast |
| Not anywhere near Maiden's best work. Filler absorbs most of the albums running time, but the 3 big tracks keep it from being a bad album. |
| Iron Maiden Somewhere Back In Time |
| Iron Savior Dark Assault |

| Yeah, this isn't doing much for me. I can definitely say I'm not the target demographic the frilly, fluffy material this album contains. Don't get me wrong, it's good, but it pales in comparison to their last 3 records. I'd love it if they'd get heavier again. |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava |
| Solid King Gizzard release, but a far cry from their previous release. Not a single surprise to be found. |

| KISS Animalize |

| KK's Priest The Sinner Rides Again |
| Slight improvement over the debut, but still nothing to write home about. KK needs to revisit some of those classic Priest records and attempt to replicate that magic formula, because the songwriting present here really lacks it's own identity. |

| Really solid psychedelic rock, it's just a shame I don't really enjoy that genre. With that being said, this is much better than the album they released in its place. |
| Manilla Road Voyager |
| Manilla Road Playground of the Damned |
| Manowar Gods Of War |
| Master Sword Toying with Time |
| Some of the material does feel a tad self-indulgent, but tracks like Dance of the Demon help make it an above average pm experience. |
| Masterplan Time To Be King |
| Mastodon Remission |
| Mastodon Hushed and Grim |
| Nowhere near as good as I remember it being. Comparing this to the rest of their discography, this just doesn't stack up for me. Mastodon really lost their bite on this one. |

| Ehhhh, as a non-fan of death metal this is just alright for me. Altars of Madness was a moody, atmospheric masterpiece; while this is just feels like your typical 90's DM album. Not to say it's bad, it just isn't for me. |

| While I don't think it's anything amazing, it does warm my heart to see veteran artists like Ozzy get their creative inspiration back so late in their careers. |
| Paladine Entering the Abyss |
| Pantera The Great Southern Trendkill |
| I don't mind this one too much. It's certainly their heaviest release, which fits the edgelord persona they attempted to create for themselves over the past couple records. |
| Pantera I Am the Night |
| Come On Eyes is a fuckin' bop. |
| Pantera Projects in the Jungle |
| A perfectly acceptable 80's metal record with the misfortune of having the Pantera name slapped on the cover. |

| If you're in the mood for some metal, this will do. Variety isn't the album's strong suit however. You could turn it off after the song Wings of Rage and not miss a single thing. |

| Rexoria Imperial Dawn |
| Rhapsody of Fire Rain Of A Thousand Flames |
| Rhapsody of Fire The Eighth Mountain |
| An overproduced, over-polished power metal album severely lacking in the power department. One of my biggest gripes in how new vocalist Giacomo Voli sounds like he's going to break down and cry for the entire record. It has one hell of a closing track though.r*update*rMuch better than I remember it being, but it still isn't anything spectacular. |
| Rhapsody of Fire Challenge The Wind |
| Another okay offering from Rhapsody of Fire. While the material is solid, it's sorely lacking Rhapsody's trademark sound. Any power metal band could have released this and I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. |
| Riot The Brethren Of The Long House |
| Riot Inishmore |
| Rob Zombie Educated Horses |
| Rob Zombie The Electric Warlock Acid Witch Satanic Orgy... |
| Rough Silk Symphony of Life |
| The first Rough Silk album where the band doesn't really sound inspired. Not their worst, but just not all that memorable. The Jon Oliva feature on Lucifer was pleasant surprise though. |

| Sabaton The War To End All Wars |
| A far cry from their excellent previous album, but it's still really enjoyable. Sabaton always manages to put a smile on my face. |

| A noted improvement over the previous record. Definitely not gonna change any minds, but I enjoyed it. |

| Do not listen to this if you hate bagpipes |
| Sanctuary The Year The Sun Died |
| Savage Master Those Who Hunt At Night |
| Savatage Fight for the Rock |
| This album really isn't as bad as most people portray it to be. It definitely doesn't hold a candle to the rest of their discography, but its perfectly acceptable on its own merits. |
| Savatage Sirens |
| Saxon Into The Labyrinth |
| Into the Labyrinth is the first and only Saxon album from the 2000's that I would consider just okay. I rarely ever hark on a record for being "over-produced", but this album is definitely missing the bite of their previous 5 releases.. |
| Saxon Carpe Diem |
| Definitely a disappointment for me. I LOVED Thunderbolt, but the material on here just isn't all that memorable. Very mild recommendation. |
| Scanner The Cosmic Race |
| There are some really good songs on here, but I'm actually shocked by how slopping the drumming is. This is like post-2010 Niko McBrain levels of sloppy. If that issue had been fixed, this would be be something special. |

| Sepultura Dante XXI |
| Sepultura Against |
| Underrated for sure. The boys sound tight as ever, and Derek Green's vocals are a big step up from Cavalera's. Nothing mind-blowing to be found here, but still one of the few groove metal albums I don't immediately want to shut off. |
| Sepultura A-Lex |
| Serious Black Vengeance Is Mine |
| Seven Spires A Fortress Called Home |
| Seventh Avenue Tales of Tales |
| I feel like I should have enjoyed this more than I did. |
| Seventh Wonder Tiara |
| ShadowStrike Traveler's Tales |
| Not amazing, but these guys do show promise. I think they'll be releasing some bangers down the line. |
| Silver Talon Decadence And Decay |
| I can tell these guys have potential, but I don't think they knocked it out of the park with their debut. My major gripe is that this album doesn't feature a single catchy hook or memorable melody. It's good, but it could have been much better. |
| Silverlane Inside Internal Infinity |
| Sinner Wild 'N' Evil |
| Sinner Danger Zone |
| Sinner Touch Of Sin |

| I don't think this band will ever release a record that goes above or below a 3. They are perpetually "just okay". |

| Nowhere near as good as the last album, but far from horrible. |
| Sodom Masquerade In Blood |
| Nothing special, but it did tear me a new asshole. |
| Sodom Obsessed By Cruelty |
| Solid, if not a a bit unremarkable. It's decent, but a tad too disjointed and eclectic for my taste. |
| Sodom Get What You Deserve |
| Sodom Epitome Of Torture |
| Probably Sodom's most melodic offering. I understand why people dislike this one, but I think it's pretty decent. |
| Sonata Arctica Unia |
| Sonata Arctica Stones Grow Her Name |
| Spellcaster Night Hides The World |
| Spirit Adrift Divided by Darkness |
| Star One Revel in Time |
| Starship Knee Deep In The Hoopla |
| The hatred this album receives is some of the most overblown shit I've ever seen. It's a pleasant 80's pop rock record with a couple legit bangers. |

| Tesla Forever More |
| Tesla Simplicity |
| Testament Souls of Black |
| Testament Dark Roots of Earth |
| Much better than remember this being, but I'm still not crazy about it. The first half is great, but that second half is a longwinded bore. |

| Woof, I don't think it's nearly as bad as people are saying. It's not great, but it has it's charm. |
| The Ferrymen Iron Will |
| The Night Flight Orchestra Give Us The Moon |
| Definitely not their strongest release. While this album definitely carries that familiar NFO vibe, it is seriously lacking in memorable moments. With that being said, it is still a pleasant listen, just could have benefited from a few surprises here and there. |

| This one is fine ig. |
| Toto Turn Back |
| Toto Mindfields |
| This album falls to an issue a lot of bands were dealing with in the mid to late 90s. CD's made it possible to fit more content onto a disc, so bands just started cramming way too much fucking music into their LPs. Some good stuff on here, but God its way too fucking long. |
| Toxic Holocaust Primal Future: 2019 |
| Triton Project Messenger's Quest |
| I commend the effort, but the second half of the album got way too self-indulgent for my liking. Having two 20+ minute songs on one album is crazy; and putting them back-to-back is even crazier. |
| Triumph The Sport Of Kings |
| Trivium Ember to Inferno |
| Tungsten (SWE) Bliss |
| I'm pretty mixed on this one. While I can appreciate they have a unique sound, I feel like they stylistically leaned a bit to much into modern metal trends. |

| U2 How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb |

| And so begins the torture. A very acceptable album, and I have a feeling it's probably going to be one of their better releases. |

| Uriah Heep Return to Fantasy |

| Uriah Heep Sonic Origami |
| Uriah Heep Into the Wild |
| Uriah Heep Chaos & Colour |
| Van Halen A Different Kind Of Truth |
| I remember absolutely hating this album back in the day, but on my latest relisten I actually kinda dig it. DLR sounds kinda rough, but there are some quality tunes on here, especially on the second half with tracks like Outta Space and Stay Frosty. |
| Venom Resurrection |
| Venom The Waste Lands |

| Come on guys, this isn't that bad. Sput users have the strangest hate boner for this band. |
| Veonity Elements of Power |
| Vicious Rumors Electric Punishment |
| Vicious Rumors Concussion Protocol |
| Virgin Steele Guardians Of The Flame |
| Virgin Steele Life Among The Ruins |
| It's a decent cock-rock/metal record with a few fun tracks. My biggest issue comes from the dogshit track order. Who's decision was it to make the last FOUR tracks consecutive ballads? |
| Virgin Steele The Black Light Bacchanalia |
| Void (USA-LA) Forbidden Morals |
| Fine while it's on, but doesn't leave much of any impact. Really cool artwork, though. |

| definitely one of the Warbringer albums of all time. |
| Warmen Here For None |
| White Wizzard Flying Tigers |
| Whitesnake Trouble |
| Pretty unremarkable, but it does have some standouts like 'Nighthawk' and 'The Time is Right For Love'. if you are in the mood for a solid collection of memorable riffs, this will do the trick. |
| Whitesnake Lovehunter |
| Artwork is better than the album itself. The album itself is just okay. |

| Bad Religion The New America |
| Bad Religion How Could Hell Be Any Worse? |
| Bad Religion The Dissent of Man |

| I appreciate the enthusiasm, but the songwriting just isn't there. |
| Bathory Octagon |
| The fuck is wrong with me? |
| Beyonce Lemonade |
| Wouldn't have listened to this on my own volition, but I had to for film class. It's not bad, but there are some seriously cringeworthy lyrics on here that really conflict with the serious tone it's going for. I knew this wasn't gonna be up my alley, but I'm surprised by just how much I didn't like it. |
| Black Label Society Grimmest Hits |
| Black Majesty Oceans Of Black |
| Black Sabbath Technical Ecstasy |
| I rarely ever chastise a band for softening their sound as long as the music they write is good. The music here isn't BAD, it's just insanely forgettable. |
| Black Sabbath Forbidden |
| Probably the most overhated metal album of all time. It's nothing special, but it's more than competent. |
| Blind Guardian Legacy Of The Dark Lands |
| I kept waiting for something to blow me away, but it never happened. There isn't anything bad on here, but there isn't anything noteworthy either. It really does feel like a collection of tracks meant to be squeezed in between normal Blind Guardian songs. |

| Slightly better than the MKI albums, but not by much. This record sounds stale as fuck. |
| Deep Purple The Battle Rages On... |
| It's pretty evident nobody in Deep Purple had any ideas for this album. |
| Deep Purple The Book Of Taliesyn |
| Slightly better than the debut, but not by a noticeable amount. Passable, but not worth your time. |
| Deep Purple Deep Purple |
| Not sure why people hate the first 2 but magically enjoy this one. Sounds the exact same as their first 2 records to me. Thank God this is the last MKI album, and thank God MKII is superior in every single way. |
| Deep Purple Shades Of Deep Purple |
| Generic, bland, flavorless psychedelic rock with one really good song. This really does nothing for me. |

| Exhorder Defectum Omnium |
| Entirely unremarkable for the most part, but the last handful of tracks are enjoyable. |
| Exodus Shovel Headed Kill Machine |
| Great production, great performances, mediocre songwriting. |
| Exodus Exhibit B: The Human Condition |
| Eynomia Sea of Tears |
| Fathomless Skywalker Anthems of the Resilient |
| Some solid musicianship and songwriting, but I genuinely cannot stand this style of female vox. Like for the love of God, hold a fucking note for longer than a nanosecond and knock the vibrato shit off. |
| Fear Factory Aggression Continuum |
| I don't think I like Fear Factory. |
| Feuerschwanz Warriors |
| I usually have a soft spot for this brand of over-the-top, anthemic power metal, but this one just didn't hit for me. |

| Firewind Few Against Many |
| this is the most "okay" power metal band to ever exist |
| Flotsam and Jetsam High |
| Freedom Call Legend Of The Shadowking |
| Gamma Ray Land of the Free II |
Only one memorable track, and it is ruined by Kai's 13 year old reddit athiest lyrics.
It's fine I guess, but definitely their worst album in my opinion |
| Gary Moore G-Force |
| Gene Simmons Gene Simmons |
| Ghost (SWE) Impera |
| Side one is impeccable, and has easily some of the bands strongest tracks to date. Side 2 however, is pretty much irredeemable and features undoubtably the worst handful of songs the band has ever recorded. "Darkness At the Heart of My Love" makes my fucking skin crawl. |
| Glasya Attarghan |
| I respect the ambition, but it's severely lacking in memorable moments. |
| Godzilla Godzilla |
| One of the most enjoyable bad albums of all time. It's so fucking corny and innocent that I can't help but love it. |

| Iron Maiden No Prayer For The Dying |
| I hate giving anything by Maiden such a low score, but this album really bombs. Tailgunner is really the only decent track on this album. But thats about it. The rest of the album is complete filler to the worst extent. |
| Iron Maiden The Final Frontier |
| Side one is excellent and contains some late-career gems, but dear God that second half is boring. Sticking five 7+ minute tracks back to back should be punishable by law. |
| Iron Savior Megatropolis |
| Iron Savior Kill or Get Killed |
| Serviceable, but it's really nothing more than by the books power metal. Sick artwork though. |

| Katagory V Awaken a New Age of Chaos |
| This is some inoffensive shit right here. Totally unremarkable, but okay while it's on. |
| Keel The Right To Rock |
| Speed Demon and You're the Victim slap really hard, but the rest of the material is laughably derivative in almost every way imaginable. |
| Kerry King From Hell I Rise |
| I hate Kerry King, but I can't really bring myself to hate this album. It's competent, albeit formulaic, by-the-numbers thrash. No memorable moments, riffs, or ideas, but nothing worth getting upset over. It's fine. |
| Killswitch Engage Atonement |
| King Crimson Larks' Tongues in Aspic |
| SooOOOO PROg!!!!! |
| King Crimson Islands |
| King Diamond The Graveyard |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Eyes Like The Sky |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Laminated Denim |
| Hypertension is good, but that first song is about as boring as Gizz can get. |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard The Silver Cord |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Phantom Island |
| I've never been a fan of KG's more relaxed and mellow outings, and this album does nothing to change my opinion. Kinda sounds like the type of shit you'd hear in a tropical resort's buffet dining room. |
| Kingdom Come Bad Image |
| Kingdom Come Twilight Cruiser |

| Kingdom of Tyrants Architects of Power |
| KISS Crazy Nights |
| KISS Unmasked |
| KK's Priest Sermons Of The Sinner |
I love KK and Ripper, so I definitely was expecting to like this way more than I did. I
wouldn't say it's a bad record, but it is a pretty generic one. |
| Krokus Painkiller |
| Labyrinth Welcome to the Absurd Circus |
| Not gonna lie, I found this album to be kind of a snoozefest. Just didn't click with me I guess. |
| Lacuna Coil Black Anima |
It's a no from me. The heavily distorted alt metal guitars layered on top of clean angelic vocals,
paired with some totally EPIC and BRUTAL screams are just silly. I know it's their sound, but
their sound just doesn't work for me. |

| Mercyful Fate Dead Again |
| Metal Church Generation Nothing |
| Metallica Reload |
| Metallica Beyond Magnetic |
| Metallica 72 Seasons |
| I stan Metallica's newer material, but this album isn't cutting it. The lack of variety is what kills it for me. There just isn't enough going on sonically to warrant that ludicrous 87 minute runtime. |
| Midnight Let There Be Witchery |
| Millennial Reign World on Fire |
| We ain't looking at Stryper levels of Christian metal here, boys. It's not terrible by any means, it just isn't interesting at all. |
| Motley Crue Motley Crue |
| Mr. Bungle Disco Volante |
| A record that's eclectic for eclectic's sake. Sure, the debut was all over the place stylistically, but not once did it sound forced or pretentious. Sadly, I can't say the same about this record. |
| Nekrogoblikon Goblin Island |
| Nevermore Nevermore |
| Nevermore The Obsidian Conspiracy |
| bro, why does this site have such a boner for this band? |

| Opeth Morningrise |
| just because you can write a 20 minute song doesn't mean you should fucking do it. It gets a 2.5 for ambition, and that's it. |
| Opeth Heritage |
| I usually hate prog rock, but this is fine I guess. At least this album has a few dynamic elements and actual riffs, unlike the ungodly tedious torture device known as 'Damnation". I'm never gonna listen to it again, but it wasn't awful while it was on. |
| Opeth Pale Communion |
| More "Heritage", which is acceptable I guess. |
| Opeth Sorceress |
| Overkill ReliXIV |
| Overkill Bloodletting |
| Ozzy Osbourne Bark At The Moon |
| Ozzy Osbourne Black Rain |
| Pantera Vulgar Display of Power |
| The album where Pantera dived headfirst into try-hard edgelord territory. Thankfully there is JUST enough decent riffing for me to give it a pass. The riff on Walk is fucking terrible though. |
| Pantera Reinventing the Steel |
| This would be a 2 if it wasn't for the fact that Goddamn Electric is one of the few post-Cowboys Pantera tracks I actually enjoy. |
| Pantera Metal Magic |
I know it isn't metal of the confederate wife beating persuasion, but it's actually a pretty
listenable record in it's own right. |

| Pink Floyd Atom Heart Mother |
| The title track is decent, everything after it is it's own special brand of forgettable. |
| Pink Floyd A Saucerful Of Secrets |
| Much better than the debut. They managed to cram all the obnoxious ambient fiddle-fucking rto one song this time, and even that song is listenable. Not planning on listening to rthis again, but I didn't feel like the band was actively wasting my time like on 'Piper'. |
| Pink Floyd Obscured By Clouds |
| Not as good as Meddle, but heaps better than the pretentious dogshit of the first 3 records. |
| Pink Floyd More |
| I don't know what's wrong with me, but this is easily my favorite PF album so far. Probably because The Nile Song is the first Floyd tune I'd willingly listen to again. |
| Powerwolf Return in Bloodred |

| This album suffers from a chronic case of "just okay". |
| Raven Everything Louder |
| Ravensire A Stone Engraved in Red |
| Razor Custom Killing |
| Rhapsody of Fire Dark Wings Of Steel |
| About as by-the-numbers as a power metal album could be. Insanely weak follow up to Eternity. |
| Rhapsody of Fire Glory For Salvation |
| I thought the last album was boring and lame, but this thing easily tops it. Worst Rhapsody album to date; albeit with a couple enjoyable singles. |
| Rigorious Kingdom Unfold |
| Ring Of Fire Gravity |
| I feel like there was a considerable amount of time and effort that went into creating this album, it's just a shame that I was kinda bored by it regardless. |

| Slayer Divine Intervention |
| Stunning quality drop you got here, Slayer. Good on you. |
| Slayer Repentless |
| Sodom 'Til Death Do Us Unite |
| Definitely their worst up to this point. The last two records may have been different, but at least those records sounded like they were trying. This just sound like a band that's bored with themselves. |
| Sodom The Final Sign Of Evil |
| A commendable effort to revisit their sonic roots, but not one I'm ever gonna listen to again. |
| Sodom The Arsonist |
| A couple cool ideas here and there, but the band seems hard stuck at 60% for the majority of the album. Really sick artwork though. |
| Sonata Arctica The Ninth Hour |

| Slightly below average blues rock. Skip it. |
| Winterage Nekyia |
| Bland and forgettable symphonic power metal, with a surprisingly awesome instrumental towards the tail end of the record. |
| Witherfall Curse Of Autumn |
| Yeah, this really didn't do anything for me; but that's to be expected from a prog-metal record. |
| Wonders Beyond the Mirage |
| Y&T Musically Incorrect |
| Not sure what they were thinking with this one. Sounds like a budget Cinderella. |
| Yngwie Malmsteen Unleash The Fury |
| Yngwie Malmsteen War To End All Wars |
| Yumi Matsutoya Tears and Reasons |
| 2.0 poor |
| 3TEETH Metawar |
| Absolon The Blood Seed |
| Accept Death Row |
| Udo's reunion with Accept featured one good album, one mediocre album, and one terrible album. This is the terrible one. |
| Accept Humanoid |
| God damn it. |
| Alice Cooper Easy Action |
| Alice Cooper Pretties For You |
| Allen/Olzon Army Of Dreamers |
| What a boring little album. |
| Amon Amarth The Crusher |
With a badass title like that, I wasn't expecting this to be one of the most unremarkable
melo-death albums I've ever heard. |
| Amon Amarth Berserker |
Amon Amarth have never sounded so tedious. This album was a really boring listen from beginning to
end. |
| Amorphis Am Universum |
| Annihilator All for You |
| Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you quite possibly the safest thrash album ever recorded. It's so utterly inoffensive that it becomes annoying. |
| Anvil Absolutely No Alternative |
| Are you sure there isn't an alternative? |
| Anvil Plugged In Permanent |
| Anvil Speed Of Sound |
| Anvil Legal At Last |
The one time I smoked weed nobody told me it was laced with some sort of hallucinogen, and
I had a hellish nightmare trip. Now every time I smell it I get PTSD. |
| Attacker The God Particle |
| The artwork is better than the music. |
| Avaland The Legend of the Storyteller |
| So fucking boring |
| Axxis Voodoo Vibes |
| When people say that the 90's ruined metal music, this is the type of shit they're talking about. Truly an abhorrent decade. |
| Bad Religion No Substance |
| Bathory Requiem |
| Sure, the production is SLIGHTLY better than Octagon, but the overall songs are worse. At least the dumpster-fire production on Octagon made it memorable. |
| Beyond The Black Beyond the Black |
| This kinda sucks. Such a nothing album |
| Boston Life, Love & Hope |
| What the fuck is this? Where are the riffs? The guitar harmonies? Songs that actually rock? Literally every song is a love song and it's pissing me off. |
| Bow Wow (JPN) Guarantee |
| I'm all for a good sellout record, but this simply did not work. If this was a full blown pop-rock record it could have been great, but the band never fully commit to the sound, leaving it in a dull grey area where no genuine creativity could shine through. |
| Brainstorm Scary Creatures |
| British Lion The Burning |
Wow, this was letdown. Production is thin, Steve's bass is pretty much inaudible throughout, and
every song is mindbogglingly generic. I seriously can't recommend this one. |
| Carcass Reek of Putrefaction |
| I hate this, but it made me bust a gut laughing on numerous occasions. Absolutely fucking hilarious. |
| Celtic Frost Vanity/Nemesis |
| Not a good album by any means, but there are some bangers towards the end of the record. |
| Cradle of Filth Nymphetamine |
| Why is this 80 minutes long? |
| Cradle of Filth Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa |
| Bro, what the fuck happened to this band? |
| Crusade of Bards Tales of the Seven Seas |
| Does anyone actually like this style of power metal? |
| Crystallion Heads or Tails |
| One of the most unremarkable albums I've ever heard. |
| Cynic Traced in Air |
| What is this nonsense? |
| Danzig Black Laden Crown |
| Danzig has never sounded less inspired as he does right here. Fucking snoozefest. |
| Darkthrone Goatlord |
| I can see why this wasn't released. A few neat riffs here and there, but most of it sounds like sloppy jam sessions. |
| Darkthrone F.O.A.D. |
| Run of the mill throwback metal record with some cool riffs, but awful vocals and lyrics. |
| David Lee Roth Skyscraper |
| Deep Sun Dreamland - Behind the Shades |
| An album so boring you will actually visit the location mentioned in the album title. |
| Demon Heart of Our Time |
| The fuck is this shit, Demon? The Carpenters sound hardcore compared to this weaksauce. |
| Destruction Spiritual Genocide |
| First and last track are good, and that's it. About as by-the-numbers as you can get. |
| Destruction Birth of Malice |
| Thought they were taking steps in the right direction with Diabolical; seems I was dead wrong. There is absolutely nothing of value to be gained from this album. |
| Devin Townsend Empath |
There are so many sub-par aspects of this record. There is consistently too much shit going on all
at once, and nothing ever comes together as a cohesive whole. Clocking in at a meaty 75 minutes, I
could not wait for this thing to end. |
| Diamond Head What's In Your Head? |
| Come on guys, it's not THAT bad. I was expecting an ear raping, and what I got a was mediocre, but inoffensive hard rock album. |
| Digger (DE) Stronger Than Ever |
| oh my god |
| Dokken Hell To Pay |
| Dream Theater The Astonishing |
| Earthshaker Soko ni Aru Uta |

| ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.................... |
| Fates Warning Night on Brocken |
| Fates Warning Inside Out |
| What a profoundly boring album. |
| Five Finger Death Punch F8 |
| Flotsam and Jetsam Dreams of Death |
| Flotsam and Jetsam Unnatural Selection |
| Forged in Black Descent of the Serpent |
| Pretty generic thrash, with a decent vocalist. Skip it. |
| Front Row Warriors Wheel of Fortune |
| The most nothing album I've heard all year |
| Ghost (SWE) If You Have Ghost |
| a collection of bad covers recorded in a Spirit Halloween |
| Ghost (SWE) Phantomime |
| Unremarkable, unwarranted, and utterly useless. |
| Gorguts Obscura |
| Everything on this album sounds like a mistake. |
| Gorillaz The Fall |
| The only thing on here worth listening to is Amarillo. It's inoffensive, and didn't piss me off, so I'll give it a generous 2 and not a 1.5. |
| Gorillaz Humanz |
| A Gorillaz album in name only. A hodgepodge of serviceable pop tracks with a ludicrous amount of features, and severe lack of personality that made Gorillaz so special. |
| Grave Digger Witch Hunter |
| Green Day Father of All Motherfuckers |
| I mean it's bad don't get me wrong, but I still enjoyed it more than the steaming pile of shit Blink-182 released last year. This is a masterpiece in comparison. |
| House of Lords The Power And The Myth |
| Hypocrisy Into the Abyss |
| One of the most insane quality drops I've ever encountered. |
| Iced Earth The Crucible Of Man |
| The first half of this album is so fucking boring. 2nd half is a little better, but not by a whole lot. |
| In Flames Siren Charms |
| Iron Maiden A Matter Of Life And Death |
| A Matter of Life and Dearth |
| Journey Next |
| Judas Priest Rocka Rolla |
| Kamelot Poetry for the Poisoned |
| Keel Keel |
| Pretty sure they got an 8th grader to write these lyrics. |
| Keldian The Bloodwater Rebellion |
| A power metal band tries making a U2 album. It's just as bad as you think it would be. |
| Kerion Cloudriders: Age of Cyborgs |
| They tried. It didn't work, but they tried |
| Kilmara Journey to the Sun |
| Slightly more creative than white noise, but just as boring. |
| King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Sketches of Brunswick East (w/ Mild High Club) |
"Yo, this sounds boring as fuck. Drop it."

| Petra God Fixation |
| Generic contemporary Christian radio rock. Lacks all the charm and character that make Petra so special. |
| Pink Floyd The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn |
My Pink Floyd journey is off to a VERY rough start. I have a feeling this isn't the last

| 48 minutes of nothing. My entire existence is exactly the same as it was before I gave this listen. I literally have NO emotions positive or negative towards this album. |
| Sinner Mask Of Sanity |
| Skillet Victorious |
| This is pretty much just heavy metal Imagine Dragons, albeit with a couple decent songs. Think I'll just stick to Stryper. |
