I wouldn't call Primus awful, but "shit" definitely comes to mind.

Should you try metalcore perhaps? Since you know a lot more about the genre than a year ago.

It's not even so much that it's awful but that it's nothing I would even consider metal...

If you're still taking top tens, then here's mine. Don't know if it's definitive, but I suck at rating the music I listen to, so this is as good as I'm going to do (also why they're in no particular order). I tried to leave off albums I thought you'd heard, hence the lack of Sabbath, Saxon, Slayer, and Maiden.

1. Bathory - Nordland I
2. Arkangel - Dead Man Walking
3. Motley Crue - Too Fast for Love
4. Metallica - Kill 'Em All
5. HammerFall - Renegade
6. Exodus - Bonded by Blood
7. At the Gates - Slaughter of the Soul
8. Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness
9. Anthrax - Spreading the Disease
10. Bathory - Bathory

And yes, after all that soul searching, I still couldn't part with either Bathory album.

This was your original list last year:

1. Ultima Thulee by Blut aus Nord
-raw icy black metal

2. Unholy Cult by Immolation
-earth-opening death metal

3. Wake/Lift by Rosetta
-one of those dreams where you're just falling, but in sludge metal form

4. Autumn Aurora by Drudkh
-there is no better way to describe this other than the album title.

5. Through Silver in Blood by Neurosis
-I'm not sure why but I get the image of a factory on fire when listening. Thick black smoke

6. The Mantle by Agalloch
-or "how to cope with being indefinitely alone"

7. Onward to Golgotha by Incantation
-soundtrack of hell

8. Hin-Fort by Trist
-will probably be my next entry into that 1001 albums thing so stay tuned

9. Verrater by Leviathan
-holy shit

10. Blood of the Hermit by Mortualia
-depressing as all hell

Those still on your new list are in red. **** man, hardly any change!

Ninetales · 09-01-2015, 09:42 AM

haha wow thats pretty crazy actually. either list is fine really as the two off each list are pretty much interchangable anyway.

The Batlord · 09-01-2015, 12:05 PM

My list is good, then? I figured there was a good chance you'd heard Kill 'Em All, but I didn't want to take the chance.

Trollheart · 09-01-2015, 12:15 PM

Your list is good, though yes I have heard Kill 'em All (featured it in last Metal Month) and by the time I get to October I should have the Exodus one up in the 1001 Metal Albums journal. Also, you can only have one artiste for each album, so you're going to have to decide between your Bathorys.

But apart from that, I choose three top tens each year, and I have already chosen, and yours ain't in them. Too slow man, too slow...

Trollheart · 09-02-2015, 10:32 AM

Nine, we need to do something about this. After listening to (and admittedly enjoying) your double black metal album, you now present me with ANOTHER double, TWO ****ING HOURS long! I'm thinking of dumping your top ten and going with Batty's, I really am....

Edit: right I've checked and the rest are ok but this is not on. You're going to need to replace this one. I'm not listening to a single track that runs for an hour, then another seven that run for another hour! I'm on a tight schedule here!

Please pick another for your number 8 if you still want me to do your list.
