Of course, after saying I listen to way to much metal in a variety of genres, most of my favorites are black metal. Way to go me, way to go.
So turned on right now.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
I'm not going to be able to avoid putting down multiples for a few bands, though I did decide not to put any duplicates in the 9th and 10th spots which were harder to decide. Almost every band that turned up in the top eight had another album or two that could have potentially made it, but I decided to narrow things down to make choosing easier.
10. Dream Theater - Black Clouds and Silver Linings
9. Disturbed - Indestructible
8. Symphony X - Paradise Lost
7. Judas Priest - Screaming for Vengeance
6. Death - The Sound of Perseverance
5. Iced Earth - Horror Show
4. Dio - Holy Diver
3. Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast
2. Iron Maiden - Powerslave
1. Judas Priest - Painkiller
Honorable Mentions:
Artillery - By Inheritance
Holy Grail - Crisis in Utopia
Really the only reason neither of these two made it is that I'm very new to the Artillery bandwagon and Holy Grail are just very new in general. I felt that I couldn't quite put them on an all time favorites list just yet, but wanted to give them a nod all the same.
On a related note, I think it would be interesting if we could track down the last time or last few times we did something like this and see how people's lists have changed over time.
-
Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
Sure, no particular order.
Thanatos- Emerging from the Netherworld
Vektor- Outer Isolation
Ayreon- Into the Electric Castle
Megadeth- Killing is my Business... and Business is Good!
Anthrax- Persistence of Time
Aspid- Extravasation
Obliveon- From this Day Forward
Alchemist- Organasm
Symphony X-Iconoclast
Gamma Bomb- Tales from the Grave in Space

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
This is a list that represents not only what my favorites are, but also to an extent the ones that have been most influential for me as a musician:
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Pain of Salvation - The Perfect Element, pt. 1
Metallica (sorry, Grimbold :smalltongue: ) - ...and Justice for All
Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction
Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind
Slayer - Reign in Blood
In Flames - Whoracle
Dimmu Borgir - Puritannical Euphoric Misanthropia
Katatonia - Viva Emptiness
Meshuggah - obZen
Honorable mentions
Tool - Lateralus
Fear Factory - Demanufacture
Dream Theater - Metropolis, pt. 2 (I'm not really thinking of them as a metal band, but on the other hand, PoS is on the list so... I dunno)
Cynic - Traced in Air
Protest the Hero - Fortress
I'm probably forgetting a load of important stuff... :smallsigh:
Edit: I certainly did forget about Pantera. Far Beyond Driven belongs in the top 10 for sure. Hmm.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
nice to see rebelrogue around here again
the fact that you like metallica seems to be a huge crimp in our sensei-apprentice relationship
(rebelrogue is my sensei people, deal)
also
my list probably should have included some meshuggah
but i can't think what i would have taken out..

We don't talk about a lot of groups.
For example, I don't recall almost anything about Rage.

Re: Metal Thread VII: The Mosh Pit Don't Start 'Til We Walk In
Oh, it's list time again. Goody.
Here's mine, for the time being. No particular order and all that:
Tiamat - Wildhoney
Agalloch - The Mantle
Blind Guardian - Nightfall in Middle Earth
Iced Earth - Horror Show
Amestigon - Sun of All Suns
Moonsorrow - Verisäkeet
Falkenbach - ...Magni Blandinn Ok Megintiri...
Bathory - Nordland I
Orphaned Land - Mabool
Dream Theater - Scenes From a Memory
Honourable mentions:
Kamelot - The Black Halo
Midnattsol - The Metamorphosis Melody
Panopticon - Collapse
Iron Maiden - Brave New World
Moonspell - Darkness and Hope
Edit: I really wanted to hate Peste Noire. My first thoughts were also "avant-garde black metal bull****", but I just couldn't stop myself from enjoying it. Even though every single one of the band members are clearly mentally disturbed.
Edit edit: The new Ensiferum album is finally here. Even though it... seems less awesome than was expected? Hell, I'm getting it anyway.

I suspect that if we held run-offs or the like, some of the more polarizing bands like Dream Theater might get knocked down a few pegs, but Arrow's Impossibility Theorem states that we wont ever be able to come up with a completely fair means of voting, so y'know, whatever.

Good work. Definitely needs more people's top 10's to make this a better list though. The top 10 of the overall list should all have at least 3 votes a piece to make it feel a little more legit.
It'd be pretty cool to have a playoff system by seeding all the multiple vote albums and having rounds of voting. Albums with the same number of votes could be seeded by year, then alphabetically by album title. If it's an odd number of albums, the 1 seed auto-qualifies for round 2.
This is what Round 1 would look like as it stands...

A run off election is one where the candidates who got the most votes go on to a second round where voters' choices are restricted to those candidates. I believe that French elections have a run off system, so you're probably familiar with the concept if not the English term.

I'm a really big fan of Slayer's Show no Mercy and of Blind Guardian's Somewhere in time. It just so happens Nightfall is one of my least favorite BG albums and RIB is one of my least favorite Slayer albums, so both choices seem bad...
