It's not as catchy, though. :p

I suppose this is the best (heh) way for me to describe what I'm saying: - "Best" = your head - "Favorite" = your heart I prefer The Thin Line Between Love and Hate to Brighter Than a Thousand Suns. The Thin Line has a je ne sais quoi about it that I adore in addition to having a magnificent...

No, I don't have any criteria whatsoever for preferring Skunkworks. I just like it more because I like it more. I don't even necessarily listen to it more often. There is no rhyme or reason.

The difference between "best" and "favorite" is I actually have criteria for the former, whereas the latter is just my preference. "Best" still comes down to each individual's criteria (unless we all formulate criteria together) and can still be subjective, but it's still different from...

Gotta disagree here. I think Tyranny of Souls is Bruce Dickinson's best album, but it's not my favorite (or as you put it, the best for me).

Actually, I don't think there is such thing as a "best" album ever. I don't like the word "best." Imo, there are only two ways to go here: Greatest Album or Favorite Album. And I think it's pretty clear this is a favorites poll. I suppose for semantics people (I include myself in this group...

What a failure of a website. No Axl Rose in sight.

Can we just ban everybody who voted for Grace Under Pressure, The Downward Spiral, and Superunknown? :p

Do you follow Nikki on Twitter? He drives me up a wall with his self-absorption on there to a point where I just unfollowed him before he could block me :p , but I suppose many artists (especially rock artists) sound like absolute tools on Twitter (Exhibit A: Joey Kramer; Exhibit B: DJ Ashba...

Smash Sound of White Noise Youthanasia I'm actually kinda surprised by all the Grace Under Pressure votes. I've always considered it one of Rush's best albums. I haven't actually been keeping track of all the era battles, and now that I know Mob Rules (the clearly inferior album) is battling...

I actually have really harsh opinions of them as people. I liked all of them, and then I read The Dirt (though the only reason I read that book was for the whole Nikki allegedly sleeping with Bruce's wife thing :p ) and I essentially started hating everyone except Mick (who I actually admire...

Okay, I can kinda see where you're coming from now. I still think it's a cool track, but it lacks a lot of energy in studio form. Which is my main problem with '70s Priest. All their awesome material comes from the '70s, but it just sounds so empty and lifeless in the studio. Genocide has got...

I agree with you on Prelude and Epitaph (though I don't really think they're too bad; more like they're mediocre), but Genocide kicks ass. Well, at least the live one does (haven't heard the studio one in years admittedly). It is very different from their other stuff, but it's still an excellent...

I can't stand the drums, but I thought it was a fun album. I feel like a terrible person for asking this, but, speaking of drummers, does anyone else differentiate Def Leppard by two eras: the two-arm and the one-arm era?

It does rock. It's actually one of my favorite Van Halen albums. I was stuck between that one and Balls to the Wall and just picked randomly. :p

Yes to all these. Gotta disagree with you here. Personally, I really love Victim, The Ripper, Tyrant (!!!), Dreamer Deceiver, Deceiver, and Genocide. Admittedly, I prefer the Unleashed in the East version of half of those, but still, I think they're killer tunes. I also believe Victim of...

Civil War. Great top 4, though.

"One-dimensional" is the last word I'd use to describe IV.

Yesterdays certainly is an underrated gem. It makes me feel awful for Steven Adler. :lol: But I hardly think it's the "missing" song from the top 7. I think there is a far more glaring omission, a song that should've been number one. And yes, I realize I'm beating a dead horse. Speaking of...
