Dopethrone, you mean? Dopesmoker was #16.
d'oh! that's exactly what i meant.

Counterparts is still better than Test for Echo. xp

dan can you change thread title to 10 instead of 50 please? Most wont realise we will be finishing in an hour or so. 75 mins max.

instead of 20, i mean
so far this list has been badass as hell. the amount of upset it's causing is hilarious.

No-one talking about Paranoid but it's the most consistent Sabbath album for me, only one pointless number (Rat Salad) and I never need to hear the title track again, but the rest of it...probably their worst album cover though.

Paranoid is my least favourite of the first six Sabbath albums but it's still a great record. Just not one I listen to much.

Even though I have Paranoid on cd now, I still have the cassette configuration in my head and almost never make it past the first half. But that first half is PHENOMENAL.

Oh cool, wasn't expecting that!

Wait, which major Sabbath hasn't dropped yet? Vol. 4? Sabbath Bloody Sabbath? And still Zep 4 (right?), Slayer ... Boris again? Not a lot of space left!
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 13 August 2010 19:05 (fifteen years ago)
Vol 4 and MOR I think?
― the same relation to machines as that which machines have to man (Matt #2), Friday, 13 August 2010 19:06 (fifteen years ago)
It's a big ilx metal album, but not enough to break the top 5.

6, 7 and 9 were all surprises to me. Stoners motivated to vote! Weird.

Vol. 4, Zep IV, Ride the Lightning, MOR?
― von kelson, Friday, 13 August 2010 19:13 (fifteen years ago)
Glenn -
it's the ex-stoners that vote for things that remind them of when they were stoners. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 13 August 2010 19:13 (fifteen years ago)
Because they can't actually remember being stoners, or remember anything else in fact

2 sab's in the top 4?

High 'N' Dry, Long Cold Winter, Out of the Cellar, Shout at the Devil.

Yeah well good point, though I do try to interject with more "complaining" LOL-worthy asides and less so OMG THERE IS A BLACK METAL ALBUM IN THE TOP 20, I WILL SB EVERY VOTER ONCE I SEE YR BALLOTS, THESE RESULTS HAVE GOT TO BE MADE UP...
^hahahaha, i was kidding about the SB's. Everybody's going to have their disagreements with polls, especially with so few people voting in them. Part of the fun is everybody disagreeing, this would be super boring if we all had consensus.
Not kidding about my dislike of the new-fangled "Nerd-metal" though!
