I cannot imagine Hayley Williams is a Megadeth fan.

Same votes as last time: Train of Thought, Anthrax, Waking the Fallen and Swallow the Sun. Listened to a couple more albums today, and I think I'm done with this year... Gojira - The Link Mathematic rhythmic exercises with screaming. 85% of this is just not for me. Sure, they can syncopate...

I ranked Born Again higher than Never Say Die, Cross Purposes, Technical Ecstasy and Forbidden for one reason only: it's interesting. I will agree that it is bad, but I think all five albums just mentioned are equally very bad. The difference being that the weird tension and stylistic changes...

They can and should have everyone in that list. I don't give a damn if they're a Democrat, Republican, The Pope or Dolly fucking Parton. They deserve to spend the rest of their lives rotting away in jail.

The last amphitheater show I saw was Legacy leg 1 in 2019.

Yes, this. I would jump at the chance to see a European festival show. But American amphitheaters are just giant, awful structures with bad sound and bad accessibility (and $25 beers). Plus, allowing daylight in ruins the vibe for the opener and will no doubt look worse for Maiden's new...

I hope to never see Iron Maiden outdoors again. It's just not the same magic.

https://blabbermouth.net/news/john-bush-announces-three-shows-celebrating-his-era-of-anthrax St. Charles here I come! Fuck Anthrax, love live Bush!

Voting for Train of Thought, We’ve Come For You All, Waking the Fallen (which I somehow missed last time) and Swallow the Sun (which I listened to today and thoroughly enjoyed). We’ve Come For You All is such a special record. I’ve seen Anthrax exactly 4 times and all of those shows took place...

Albums I listened to today: Live - Birds of Pray Nowhere near as good as I remember it (I was 18 when it came out as a fan). The first four tracks are good, I like Lighthouse, but everything else is just so streamlined, so polished, and anemic. Ed’s lyrics are terrible here. Human Fortress -...

Been a couple days, so I feel like it’s time to remember that Trump is definitely in the Epstein files for being a rapist pedo.

Just re-read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to The Galaxy, it’s still fun.

I never could really get into Secret Samadhi, but Throwing Copper and Distance to Here are wonderful. I like Mental Jewelry, too. Birds of Pray is definitely the only Live album worth listening to after Distance. It’s solid.

I like More Balls. I think the only song that stood as being too overdone was Tears.

Yeah, Epica deserves to be here. It’s better than Karma. But I also didn’t nominate it, so I can’t complain. I legitimately used to love Live, I just feel like this stretch of albums (V, Birds, Black Mountain) is where they really lost the plot. Granted, Birds is easily the best of those...

ALSO ALSO I just have to know who nominated Live's Birds of Pray?! :blink:

Train of Thought is my clear winner here. I'm sure that Maiden bias will indeed prevail, but Dance of Death is really not top of anything (other than top song about war written by Adrian Smith). Also voting for We've Come For You All, which is an absolute monster of a record and contains...

Votes for The Odyssey, Opeth and Dio. Century Child deserves #2 and Bloodbath, as much fun as it is, is hampered by weaker production.

Painkiller is absolutely not overrated, but songs about "being metal" are.

Based on the erratic nature of his posts and his burning bridges, I'm gonna guess addiction of some kind is to blame here.
