Bruce Dickinson's voice is actually more irritating to me than Axl Rose's voice.  

Axl sounds like a cat with its tail in a toaster; Bruce sounds like a cat with its tail in a toaster and a mousetrap on its nads.

When Toho is right, he's right.



KISS are the single most overrated band on the planet.

Akeldama is far too kind to 0.01 of hair metal

Endorama is a great record and Kreator should have continued down this path

Queensryche are incredibly boring.

Rime of the Ancient Mariner is a terrible terrible song.

British Steel is not overrated it's brilliant

Painkiller is not brilliant it's overrated

Down to Earth is as good as the Dio Rainbow records

The best Death album is Scream Bloody Gore

Clive Burr was the Best Maiden drummer by a mile.

Hear, hear!

Off the top...

Keeper of the Seven Keys Part III is way better than the first two, which are both ridiculously overrated.

Youthanasia is the best Megadeth album.

Judas Priest's Demolition might sound like crap, but it's a pretty damn good album otherwise. Some great songs on that one.

The drum sound on And Justice for All is awesome.

Flick of the Switch is the best AC/DC album.

John Bonham...meh.

Nickelback is a great band.

Trash is the best Alice Cooper album.

Doro...not that hot.

White Zombie's Make Them Die Slowly is a really good album.

mc666 is right, Green is Forbidden's best album. Distortion is a close second.

Based on all the posts in this thread, most of you are retarded.

Okay...

I love all FOUR of Vengeance Rising's albums. Destruction Comes is a great thrash album, and Released Upon The Earth is a great,great (much more Death-ish) album.

I like exactly one Pink Floyd song. And I just like it. I don't get Pink Floyd love.

I LOVE Death Magnetic.

I LOVE Once Dead.

Steel Dragon is better than most bands ever, and should be a real band!

Sacred Steel is better than 99.7 of all power/speed metal bands!

Dale Thompson deserves to be in the metal vocalist Pantheon with:

Dio
Jorn
Rob Rock
Chris Cornell
Bruce Dickinson

Queen is the most talented band in heavy music history. Not the best, Per se, but the most talented.

I hate ZZ Top

I hate Def Leppard

Becoming The Archetype's Terminate Damnation is better than anything else in their genre.

Matt-ah Barlow-ah is-ah annoying-ah!

Boris is right, I am too kind to 0.01 of Hair Metal but it's just cuz my older sibs jammed it a lot growing up so it reminds me of good times at least.

Eyesore, I agree that Bonham is meh.

scottmitchell74, I agree that Barlow is annoying. He throws the whole thing off for me.

FYI, she's in her 50's. I doubt she's even going for that.

Danzig III:How The Gods Kill is their best album.

Het's vox sounded the best on Load/ReLoad.

The Kinks>The Rolling Stones>The Beatles (I can't stand them).

Jake E. Lee was just as good as Randy Rhoads.

Dio's best albums are Angry Machines and Strange Highways.

The Ultimate Sin is just as good as Blizzard Of Ozz & Diary Of A Madman.

F*ck yeah.

Die Happy > Vengeance Rising.

Keeper Part I > Keeper Part II

I'm with ya on The Beatles; I've never been able to like them no matter how much I'm supposed to. I much prefer McCartney and Wings to anything The Beatles ever did.

Flick Of The Switch, Ballbreaker, Blow Up Your Video & Rock Or Bust are the best Brian-era AC/DC.

Winery Dogs are boring.

Psychotic Supper & Bust A Nut are Tesla's best albums.

Freddie Mercury although very talented is very irritating at times.

Dehumanizer>Mob Rules>The Devil You Know>Heaven & Hell

State Of Euphoria is Anthax' best album.

99.99% of the Rap Rock novelty songs like "I'm The Man", :Walk This Way" with Run DMC suck!

And to add to what Toho said I prefer Wings to anything the Beatles members ever did. I'm a HUGE Wings fan.

That's why I like early Queen much better than latter day Queen. I think Freddie Mercury started to indulge his inner Liza Minelli too much after News Of The World. Still the best vocalist rock has ever had IMO but he did get irritating sometimes.

I agree with ya, Toho, although I like Jazz as well and I really like Live Killers.

I have always hated "We Will Rock You" & "We Are The Champions".

I meant in general, even when she was younger. Not ugly by any means, of course. =)

I totally agree on this one.

Totally agree with Akeldama on the Kinks

Saying Queensryche is boring is ignorance defined.

Pretties For You and Easy Action are just as good as all of the "classic" Alice Cooper albums.

There is no such thing as christian metal...Lyrics dont make a genre..

The s/t Crucified album is the best crossover album ever made.

Truth!

I also agree with Eyesore on AJFA,and Akeldama on State of Euphoria.

Been listening to Badlands and Red Sea...


Red Sea is better! I think Robyn Kyle Basauri's vocals carry the music better. I also think Red Sea just packs a little more punch.

Badlands was never as great as they should have been.

Been listening to the Dusk album by Badlands, and I love everything about it! From Jake E Lee's perfect blues guitar tone and riffs, to the raw stripped down production and Ray Gillan's heartfelt vocals (especially while being sick).

That said, I also appreciate Robyn Kyle and Red Sea too. He had a powerful voice!

Wish Red Sea had done more music, really love that album.

"Unblack Metal" is just silly.
