It's A Non-Satanic Non-Drug Thing...You Wouldn't Understand

Start here:

1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol―that our lives had become unmanageable.

*sigh*

You know me, man, I like the Evergreens. Master of Reality, In Rock (already listed), hopefully Tyranny and Mutation and Love it to Death. I'd like to see South of Heaven and Rust in Peace place high. I'd like to see some newer shit that I like that draws on some of the old stuff I like place high, like Blessed Black Wings and Age of Winters.

That's a spectacularly good cover. I will listen to that.

It's a very good album.

It's new stuff influenced by old stuff, so Bill needs to try!!

I love Slough Feg. I like them and Torche and Baroness more every time I see them live. I'm not big into 80s Judas Priest, but I thought that was a big favorite for a lot of people. I figured at least two of their albums should make top 50, but now I'm getting worried!

Bill, Tyranny & Mutation was at #223!

Awww, shit. That must have been posted over the weekend, when I was concentrating on "other" activities.

colonel poo and aldo to thread

shame you suffer didnt make the tracks poll

Maybe Chap likes this? Bill?

Oh yeah, love the sound of Napalm in the morning.

I prefer the later, more developed stuff though - the ultra-short grindcore albums are amusing and cool conceptually, but not something I'd sit down and listen too very often.

something thrashy coming up

Devil horns at the ready.

Though actually I'm reading this listening to the rather downbeat and airy new Skream album, maybe I should switch up to something more appropriate.

Wow I thought that'd be top 50

Think the consensus is that Seasons in the Abyss is better. With which I would agree.

Seasons was 252

Bad, bad placing.

Oh okay, I am terrible at consensus judging and remembering things.

I'm just going to post my favourite Slayer riff anyway, from Seasons:

I think I voted for that.

"Blood Red" is AWESOME; why have I not heard this album/track before??

OH SHIT SLAYER DIDN'T HAVE ALL THEIR ALBUMS IN THE TOP 20 WHO WILL SLAY FOR US NOW :(

LJ hates metal?

Real metal at least

nothing against 'real' metal, everything against people for whom comparative quality is an issue of vintage

What about people who wont listen to stuff because it's before 1990?

No idea what that means, but the issue is simple: I think South of Heaven is a top 10 album of all time. It didnt place there, if that makes me guilty of "comparative vintage" or whatever the fuck you are trying to say in your previous post, then guilty as charged.

xpost

He means ppl think only stuff released a long time ago is worthy of all time status and he disagrees.

The Unida is the best thing John Garcia & Scott Reeder did post Kyuss.

Urban Coyote is a great album name.

i'm glad 'tara' made it. it is fuckin' awesome. that guy's drumming is unreal.

It's a great album. Different to Kyuss. More heavy rock than stoner.
