Ultimatum - Into the Pit is fantastic but the newest 4 tracks are amazing.
Thanks. I actually think Into the Pit through Heart of Metal is our best period as well. I am quite proud of the new songs on Heart of Metal. Wish we could have swung a completely new album.

Yeah one of my first albums was Inferno and I find myself grabbing that more than their classic stuff. | |

| The first one that came to mind is Nevermore. I enjoy their latter work much more than their debut & follow-up. Or Sanctuary for that matter.
I like latter day Flotsam & Jetsam too. Stuff like High and My God get much more airplay from me than Doomsday for the Deceiver.

| I'm tempted to say Saint, but I'm not sure the new stuff is better. It is remarkably good, though. | |

If I'm listening to more modern-day Megadeth (or Motorhead) these days, it's only because the old stuff is so ingrained in my conscienceness that I feel a need to mix it up a little. Not so much a preference as it is a case of necessity.

I'm sort of with ya on Ministry if you're talking about their "dance music" early days. But IMO nothing they've put out after Psalm 69 even comes close to that album. The period of "Land Of Rape And Honey", "The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste" and Psalm 69 blows away anything by Ministry before or since IMO.

| Fates Warning - For some reason I prefer the darker stuff from A Pleasant Shade Of Gray to FWX. I don't have the new one, yet, for me to comment on. It just connects with me better than the earlier stuff. | |

| argh yes Hirax
A band I've for such a long, long, loooooong time been wanting to get into. But right now, ultmetal was the final straw and I ordered New Age of Terror.
Mind you, I am not the biggest thrash lover there is, I just like good speed/thrash/power metal like Anthrax, Testament, early Helloween, Blind Guardian | |

| I'm tempted to put Blind Guardian here, because I typically gravitate towards their mid to late era stuff. But I wouldn't necessarily say it's objectively "better." | |

| I guess I could throw Pink Floyd into this category.
Their work with Syd and the few follow-up albums are interesting, but they didn't seem to find their "sound" until Meddle. After that, they hit the mark and those albums (Dark Side, Animals, etc.) get way more play than their eariler psychadelia.

I still prefer "Puppet of Destruction" over all...what is this "Heart of Metal", other than the song? The Heart of Metal CD from 2012 has four new songs that we recorded for that album. Blood on a Thousand Hills, Scattered (Body Parts), Hook Line & Sinker & Rip ‘n’ Tear

Yes, remixes, re-recorded tracks, etc. It's a 20 year compilation.

I like some of the new stuff by both Testament (Dark Roots of the Earth) and Overkill (Ironbound), but I just can't put them on the level of stuff like Practice What You Preach and The Years of Decay. They are really good though. Both bands continue to put out stuff worthy of their legacy and worth picking up, for sure. Even if they don't quite equal their old stuff, at least they're still around kicking all kinds of booty.  | |

| Converge applies here for me. I like their early material, but my favorites are all newer albums (All You Love We Leave Behind / You Fail Me). | |
