This particular album, King of The Dead, is (in my humble opinion) their magnum opus. The only criticisms I have are the robotic guitar tone, and the... unique vocals of Tim Baker. Once you become accustomed to these idiosyncrasies, you can fully enjoy this simply astounding band. The title track--with its subtle Rush-esque progressions and ominous build--as well as standouts such as "Master of The Pit", "Black Machine", and "Atom Smasher" cement this LP as one of the greatest of the subgenre.Cynic FocusCynic Traced in AirCynic Ascension CodesDeath SymbolicDeath Individual Thought PatternsDeath HumanDeath The Sound of PerseveranceDio Holy DiverDio The Last In LineDio Dream EvilDio The Very Beast Of DioDio At Donington UK: Live 1983 & 1987Dream Theater Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a MemoryDream Theater OctavariumDream Theater Train of ThoughtGerry Mulligan Night LightsGhost (SWE) MelioraGodspeed You!

Bruce sings really beautifully?in a way that I haven't heard since "Paschendale" or maybe even "Tears Of A Dragon", and he just pours his soul into it. The recurring piano motif....*kisses fingers* perfection. It is a really lovely epic, and I have to love it. I may be, as my username indicates, a Dio fan, but I cannot help but love Maiden.Iron Maiden Death On The RoadIron Maiden From Fear To EternityJean-Luc Ponty Imaginary VoyageJohn Coltrane Concert in JapanJohn Coltrane Both Directions At Once: The Lost AlbumJohn Coltrane My Favorite ThingsJohnny Cash American II: UnchainedJohnny Cash American RecordingsJohnny Cash At Folsom PrisonJudas Priest Stained ClassJudas Priest British SteelJudas Priest FirepowerLingua Ignota Sinner Get ReadyLinkin Park MeteoraM83 Dead Cities, Red Seas and Lost GhostsMahavishnu Orchestra Birds of FireManilla Road Open the GatesManowar Hail To EnglandManowar Kings Of MetalMegadeth Countdown To ExtinctionMegadeth Peace Sells...

Also, the music video for the title track is fire. "When The Wild Blows" is amazing, "El Dorado" is good (but I have no idea how it won a Grammy), and some other standouts include "Mother of Mercy" and "Starblind". Overall a good album, but probably Maiden's worst of the 21st century.Iron Maiden Donington Live 1992Iron Maiden The X FactorThis album is vastly superior to Virtual XI, and has some legitimate bangers on it, such as "Sign of The Cross" and "Man on The Edge". Other standouts include "Heart of Darkness" and "Lord of The Flies". Blaze honestly sounds great here, and the songwriting far outstrips its successor.Jean-Luc Ponty King KongJesu JesuJudas Priest TurboJudas Priest NostradamusKatatonia Sky Void of StarsLil Yachty Let's Start Here.Megadeth Cryptic WritingsMegadeth So Far, So Good...

"Half Past Human", "Brutish Manchild", and "Shelob's Lair" are hot as hell, but "Route 666" is mediocre in my opinion. Cirith Ungol delivers what you'd expect, which isn't a bad thing.Cynic Kindly Bent to Free UsDio Strange HighwaysDio Evil Or DivineDream Theater The AstonishingGhost (SWE) PrequelleGodspeed You! Black Emperor aMAZEzine!Gojira The LinkIced Earth IncorruptibleIron Maiden Fear Of The DarkIron Maiden Nights Of The Dead: Live In Mexico CityThis is a pretty solid live album, in my opinion. At times, Bruce sounds somewhat haggard--or gets drowned in a drum-heavy mix--but still produces a solid if underwhelming performance. This was the first Maiden project released since I became a metalhead, and I may have rose-tinted glasses from the nostalgia. Still really great, and "Aces High" is one of the best live recordings that I have heard.Lisa Germano In The Maybe WorldMegadeth United AbominationsMetallica MetallicaRammstein Liebe Ist Für Alle DaSwans Time Is Money (Bastard)Swans Holy MoneySwans The Glowing ManSwans Love of LifeSwans SwansThe Ocean HeliocentricThe Ocean Phanerozoic Live3.0 goodBlack Sabbath Born AgainDio Inferno: Last In LiveGrim Reaper Rock You To HellIced Earth Plagues Of BabylonIron Maiden No Prayer For The DyingIron Maiden Virtual XIAt one point, I hated this album. Nowadays I'm pretty neutral, but it did give us the absolute banger "The Clansman". Blaze is underrated and overhated, but this album suffers from mediocrity and longwindeness (looking at you, "Angel and The Gambler"). Solid, but not something I listen to all that much.Metallica St. AngerInitially, I had this rated as a 1.0. However, I wrote that soundoff almost two years ago, and St. Anger has somewhat grown on me. Personally, I believe that this album is probably better than everything post-1990--other than their most recent LP, Hardwired, that is.The problem with Metallica is that they have a strong tendency to be formulaic. This does not apply as much to their early work, but after the Black Album they basically repeated the same formula--but worse--in Load and ReLoad. After those two, I at least appreciate that they decided to go somewhere different. Is St. Anger perfect? No. Is it great? Also no. But it is unique in Metallica's discography. The snare tone is incredibly jarring at first, but, to be completely honest, I'm not a drummer: therefore, I do not care much at all after a few spins. The choruses are usually the strongest bit of the songs, especially on "Some Kind of Monster", a good song that is even better in the radio edit--a rare occurence of a single edit being better, but it did cut a lot of extraneous fluff. Overall, this album is pretty ok, but reeks of missed potential. At least it isn't boring.Metallica Hardwired...To Self-DestructMetallica 72 SeasonsSlipknot The End, So Far2.5 averageMetallica ReloadMetallica LoadMetallica Death Magnetic2.0 poorBlack Sabbath Technical EcstasyBlack Sabbath Never Say Die!1.5 very poorDio Angry MachinesEasily the worst LP or EP Dio put out, and that includes his doo-wop material (which unironically goes hard).r"This Is Your Life" is a great ballad, but hardly saves the rest of this boring, repetitive sludge. "Hunter Of The Heart" is pretty good, but that's sort of it.rThis hurt me to write, as a Dio fanboy.1.0 awfulJustin Bieber My World 2.0Justin Bieber BelieveJustin Bieber PurposeJustin Bieber ChangesTaylor Swift Taylor SwiftTaylor Swift FearlessTaylor Swift Speak NowTaylor Swift RedTaylor Swift 1989Taylor Swift ReputationTaylor Swift Lover
