Cryptopsy's None So Vile too

oh i know.....just enjoying listing some of my fav heavies that i haven't played in ages

Neanderthal, Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:05 (twelve years ago) link

Lame Satyricon pick.

Fig On A Plate Cart (Alex in SF), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:08 (twelve years ago) link

Also no Melvins is (o_O)

Fig On A Plate Cart (Alex in SF), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:08 (twelve years ago) link

It's a good list, if a bit random on what heaviness actually means. But over half of it is as heavy as balls. The trouble with listing all the heaviest albums ever is it just ends up being a list of Warhorse, Eyehategod, Gojira, Winter, UFOmammut, Anaal Nathrakh etc, and it gets a bit tedious. Anyway, \m/ Dopethrone, 31 - 39 and I own two copies of Iowa.

Conan The Asshander (Doran), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:18 (twelve years ago) link

i own 8

49 The Beatles - White Album
47 The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Electric Ladyland
46 Judas Priest - British Steel
44 Alice in Chains - Dirt
30 NIN - The Downwards Spiral
14 Metallica - Master Of Puppets
07 Black Flag - Damaged
2 Black Sabbath - Master Of Reality

chief rocker frankie crocker (m coleman), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:20 (twelve years ago) link

Two.

Bet you can guess which.

Mark G, Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:26 (twelve years ago) link

doran didn't you do a heaviest metal albums list for nme once?

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:27 (twelve years ago) link

Own 21, to my own surprise. Like all of them, too.

'Fat Of The Land' can go fuck itself imho. I'm mostly surprised at Mogwai's ep included here (which does rule, but still, v surprising)

Y Kant Lou Reed (Le Bateau Ivre), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:37 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah, and it was a lot heavier than that and everyone just complained about the amount of doom and death metal I chose but that's what I perceive to be heavy. This kind of list is actually be ok, probably better than mine if you had the reasoning in a paragraph next to each one. In a way the heaviosity achieved by unsuspecting Beatles fans by The White Album back in the day must have been pretty immense.

Conan The Asshander (Doran), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:37 (twelve years ago) link

Sorry I'm really tired and can't type properly any more.

Conan The Asshander (Doran), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:38 (twelve years ago) link

i think 29 of these? i cant remember if i actually own a couple, so i comfortably voted in the 20-29 bracket

cannonball aderall (jjjusten), Thursday, 10 November 2011 00:52 (twelve years ago) link

i thought you would have all 50 as you had to keep up with the kids in your professional capacity

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 01:29 (twelve years ago) link

oh and grouty will have the beatles and hendrix

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 01:30 (twelve years ago) link

I own 25.

How did The Prodigy end up in this list?
Especially with this album?
(Not in any way metal, but Jilted Generation is heavier, harsher, etc.)

Sebastian (Royal Mermaid Mover), Thursday, 10 November 2011 01:48 (twelve years ago) link

2. Beatles and NIN.

I am using your worlds, Thursday, 10 November 2011 01:52 (twelve years ago) link

I didn't know Kerrang was still going.

I am using your worlds, Thursday, 10 November 2011 01:52 (twelve years ago) link

its been covering emo,mall punk, alt rock and zero metal and pretty boys in make up on the cover every week (just like the 80s) for years now. No doubt normal service will be resumed next week.

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 02:00 (twelve years ago) link

top 3 could be about right surprisingly. starting with slipknot at no. 4, this thing takes a sharp turn into weirdville.

charlie h, Thursday, 10 November 2011 02:14 (twelve years ago) link

oops I misread the poll. Voted for owning 2. If it's for how many I like it would be higher.

I am using your worlds, Thursday, 10 November 2011 02:23 (twelve years ago) link

i thought on a board with journos who get promos and a bunch of people who download stuff that voting for how many you like might be more accurate

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 07:20 (twelve years ago) link

no 70s stuff no credibility. ok there's sabbath on the list but still...

cock chirea, Thursday, 10 November 2011 08:18 (twelve years ago) link

28. Kinda surprised.

bear has little fear of hades (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Thursday, 10 November 2011 08:23 (twelve years ago) link

I've got 20 of these in some capacity. I see Mogwai is on the list, too, but for 'My Father My King'? That's a single or an EP, isn't it?

wronger than 100 geir posts (MacDara), Thursday, 10 November 2011 08:45 (twelve years ago) link

yeah an ep really.

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:43 (twelve years ago) link

Noen

R. Stornoway (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:47 (twelve years ago) link

Or even NONE

R. Stornoway (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:48 (twelve years ago) link

you dont even like the sabbath or hendrix?

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:48 (twelve years ago) link

I don't own them

R. Stornoway (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:50 (twelve years ago) link

i did say in the 1st post to vote for how many you like, i just forgot to change thread title and afaik a mod cant change it as its a poll thread.

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:52 (twelve years ago) link

so how many do you like?

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:53 (twelve years ago) link

This is not the thread for me, methinks

R. Stornoway (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 November 2011 09:55 (twelve years ago) link

you wont damage your cred as noone will see it!

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 10:07 (twelve years ago) link

Actively like 18 of these, own about a dozen.

good luck in your pyramid (Neil S), Thursday, 10 November 2011 11:39 (twelve years ago) link

I own 9. I had the "damaged" and the atari teenage riot albums but I gave them away.

Michael B Higgins (Michael B), Thursday, 10 November 2011 11:58 (twelve years ago) link

oh and grouty will have the beatles and hendrix

One right, the other was Nirvana.

Don't have any Hendrix, and the Sab I own is a different one (the first)

Mark G, Thursday, 10 November 2011 12:52 (twelve years ago) link

Think I own about 10 of them, like a few more than that, never listened to most of the rest. The Beatles is the only one I've heard that I find actively unpleasant.

Lars and the Lulu Girl (NickB), Thursday, 10 November 2011 12:58 (twelve years ago) link

it does mean Geir cant vote 'none' though

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Thursday, 10 November 2011 14:05 (twelve years ago) link

I own 13, like about 27 (can't remember if I've heard that particular Cathedral album). Which I guess means it's not too bad a list, although I'm not convinced of the "heaviness" of some of them.

The Eyeball Of Hull (Colonel Poo), Thursday, 10 November 2011 14:14 (twelve years ago) link

own 16, like 18. I would switch 1 and 2. Master of Reality is the album I judge all other albums by, be it for heaviness or not.

You're a notch, I'm a legend (Bill Magill), Thursday, 10 November 2011 14:54 (twelve years ago) link

Even though their heaviest album may be Born Again.

You're a notch, I'm a legend (Bill Magill), Thursday, 10 November 2011 14:55 (twelve years ago) link

oh how many i like? 17

Princess Nancy (jjjusten), Thursday, 10 November 2011 20:01 (twelve years ago) link

11 Everytime i Die - Hot Damn

Really?

You're a notch, I'm a legend (Bill Magill), Thursday, 10 November 2011 20:21 (twelve years ago) link

rusty_allen, Monday, 14 November 2011 05:51 (twelve years ago) link

at first i thought that was geir listing the albums he owns

(Algerian Goalkeeper) Vs (Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker), Monday, 14 November 2011 09:59 (twelve years ago) link

the lovely Four Freshman-esque harmonies of Reign in Blood

no jesus, no piece (Neanderthal), Monday, 14 November 2011 12:46 (twelve years ago) link

British Steel is full of the kind of tunes you can whistle in the shower. Even if that shower might be in prison.

I like "United" a lot. Don't own that album though.

Hongroe (Geir Hongro), Monday, 14 November 2011 14:34 (twelve years ago) link

Twenty-one but no Machine Gun, no cred.

Here he is with the classic "Poème Électronique." Good track (Marcello Carlin), Monday, 14 November 2011 14:37 (twelve years ago) link

I take it you don't mean Machine Gun by The Commodores Marcello.

Conan The Asshander (Doran), Monday, 14 November 2011 14:44 (twelve years ago) link

I'm waiting for the day Geir finally reveals after all these years that he is really Fenriz

no jesus, no piece (Neanderthal), Monday, 14 November 2011 14:54 (twelve years ago) link

I take it you don't mean "United" by Throbbing Gristle, Geir.

Mark G, Monday, 14 November 2011 15:41 (twelve years ago) link

Excellent.

Conan The Asshander (Doran), Monday, 14 November 2011 15:44 (twelve years ago) link

Can't think of many other Throbbing Gristle songs he'd like better

R. Stornoway (Tom D.), Monday, 14 November 2011 15:46 (twelve years ago) link

"United":Judas Priest::"Abracadabra":Steve Miller Band

no jesus, no piece (Neanderthal), Monday, 14 November 2011 16:00 (twelve years ago) link

machine gun was marcello's fave Warrant song iirc
