Sort by: Rating | Release Date | Rating Date | Name5.0 classicBlack Sabbath Black SabbathThe start of it all. The song Black Sabbath is simply the heaviest song of all time, the rest of the album is good but the main song itself puts this to the highest pantheon of heavy rock music.Black Sabbath SabotageRush A Show Of HandsOne of my lonely island albums. A compilation from various live concerts but so seamlessly engineered into a stream of some of their greatest songs that it's easy to just listen to from start to finish.4.5 superbAborym Kali Yuga BizarreFree Tons Of SobsA sublime example of blues based psychedelic heavy rock, one of the root albums of early heavy metal. Both Paul Rodgers and Paul Kossoff really knew what they were up to, despite of their young age. Judas Priest Sad Wings Of DestinyConsidering that this is the band's second album, it defines really well the sound of the mid -1970's heaviest bands and the direction the band has started to take; there are a few hints of progressive rock here, especially the long passages and various part changes in the longest songs, but the heaviness is all around and the band has mostly dropped the blues rock roots of 'rocka rolla' and started the change into the heavy metal juggernaut they later became. rA real classic.Metallica Ride The LightningThe Jimi Hendrix Experience Are You ExperiencedFoxey Lady, Fire, Hey Joe, Purple Haze, The Wind Cries Mary. What else can you say?Thorns ThornsThe first time I heard Thorns I was in loss for words. The sound, the song structures, the energy in this album was and still is something I haven't heard since. The combination of black, the harshness of industrial and the structure of progressive metal stroke like a sledgehammer to my musical nerve and still does.4.0 excellentAborym With No Human InterventionBlack Sabbath Sabbath Bloody SabbathBlack Sabbath The Eternal IdolImmortal Sons of Northern DarknessVery tight playing, the band imo is at the peak of their career in this album. Excellent song structures, characteristic Immortal sound.Paradise Lost Faith Divides Us - Death Unites UsMajestic songs and epic soundscapes, the best album of Paradise Lost.Rotten Sound DrainHeavily D-beat influenced songs from Finland's best grindcore band. Kai Hahto on drums really delivers, he has studied jazz drummers' (!) styles a lot and it shows. Excellently produced sound, heavy but very crisp. 3.5 greatBlack Sabbath ParanoidHeathen Victims of DeceptionGreat thrash metal, excellently produced, some excellent songs. Tight drums, snappy thrash metal guitars. 2.5 averageCryptic Slaughter ConvictedVery sloppy playing all around. You can feel the energy and enthusiasm of the band but the sloppy playing puts me off whenever I hear it, regardless of the genre.
