Top 30 list
September 3rd 2010 09:04
Brady Greene my good friend from Perth, asked me to do a top 30 list, after he showed me his list, I thought about not doing a top 30, but just do a list. Anyway, I have decided to rank them in order.
These albums in one way or another, have inspired me. Whether it's an old classic like Motley Crue's - Girls, Girls, Girls, which was the album that got me into the Heavy Metal scene or new albums like Dark Fortress killer album Ylem or from an unknown band like Trail of Tears album Bloodstained Endurance.
The good thing about Metal is the variety in it and this list has variety in it. However, it is a very hard thing to do, to rank them, as looking back at this list already, I can change the list and move albums up and down the list.
For me, the Blackening by Machine Head is currently my favourite album. It is an epic masterpiece in my opinion and their best album to date and they have their work cut out for them top that effort.
Like I said previous, albums like Girls, Girls, Girls and Appetite For Destruction are classic albums that has stood the test of time and I hope that goes for the newer albums on this list.
