If it has to be 1 album only... I think I'd go with something like this: The Wicker Man These Colors Don't Run For The Greater Good Of God Montségur Rainmaker The Book Of Souls Stratego The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg The Writing On The Wall The Talisman When The Wild Wind Blows

Although I'm not the biggest fan of it, Empire of the Clouds is a blatant candidate. It's got lots of fans and is a truly unusual and - dare I say - standout tune. When it comes to earlier stuff, I think Only The Good Die Young and The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner (although the latter...

Love these... I'm not even a Dire Straits fan but those two songs from BIA alone are worth it. Money for nothing as far as I'm concerned has probably the best drum intro and guitar riff in rock I've ever listened to.

MMmmmmm hard one... It would make two great double albums My favourite: Disc 1 The Wicker Man Stratego The Talisman Blood Brothers The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg Face In The Sand The Book Of Souls Disc 2 Montségur These Colors Don't Run The Writing On The Wall For The Greater Good Of...

I like some of their tracks (especially Hell You Call A Dream). Great performers, especially Dani (monster of a voice!) I still remember the first time I saw them on YT playing "Kickstart My Heart" and recall being absolutely dumbfounded by the shortened cover. The trio was excellent but once...

Nor did you have to... The one you posted is already impressive as hell. Yeah, that´s what I was alluding to with the aforementioned disambiguation. It varies and to each his own. I personally think AFD is much closer to 70's Hard Rock of Aerosmith and Zeppelin than to Motley Crue or stuff like...

Only put it there because @Collin 's original post was also in CIPWM. Thanks.

Here's mine. Ahead of each one is what, IMO, are the genres of each album 2024: Julie Christmas - Ridiculous And Full Of Blood (Sludge, Noise) 2023: Host - IX (Rock, Synth) 2022: Final Light - Final Light (Sludge, Synthwave) 2021: Sleigh Bells - Texis (Alternative, Power Pop, Electronic) 2020...

Inspired by THIS post by @Collin, I thought it was cool to narrow the roster a bit. I also think that it's a cool way to see what people here listen to outside of metal. Obviously, a pertinent question is paramount from the get go: what is "Metal" and what is not. That I'll leave to each one...

I disagree with both reviews but then again everyone has his own preferences. If I was to group the band's releases it would be something like: Mandatory: "Endtyme", "Soul Sacrifice" (EP), "Forest Of Equilibrium": ("heavy as hell" Cathedral at their best IMO, some borders Death/ Doom). "The...

Mmmmm... Let's see what is roughly my favorite 20 tracks by the composers/ teams in question: (Harris) Phantom Of The Opera Murders In The Rue Morgue The Number Of The Beast The Trooper To Tame A Land Aces High Rime Of The Ancient Mariner Caught Somewhere In Time Heaven Can Wait The Loneliness...

Because in part of what @frus said IMO they should focus on specific songs that proved before that work awesomely with slight studio orchestration elements. 2 or 3 must plays should be add up also. And yes, this would be a great chance to finally play Empire Of The Clouds. IMO, something like...

Awesome band. Apart from The VII th Coming and The Guessing Game (kinda meh IMO) Cathedral are among the best of the best in Doom Metal as far as I'm concerned.

IMO one could make two massive records out of them. The first steps have been referred to a zillion times and I couldn't agree more: a) stop making F**ING one note guitar lines mimicking the vocal melody. b) stop repeating some sections ad aeternum. c) if you want to recycle melodies, don't...

Nice work @MindRuler . All Maiden covers next? :D :D :D :D

BTW... Dance Of Death still has no votes. WTF? :D:D:D:D

Absolutely no problem! I agree... It would be nice to gather all Maiden covers (albums, eps, singles) and make something in the same format @MindRuler did. I'm all in.

And that doesn't work just for SFSGSW... avoid at all costs the remixes. IMO they sound way worse than the originals.

Couldn't agree more. I don't think it's that awful but yeah... it leaves a lot to be desired quality wise. And that sticks out like a sore thumb among what I consider to be nothing but excellent tunes. Even so, I concur that if it, was the last song, it would be perfect, since: a) instead of...
