Holy Diver

Albums so great I don't need to post the artists 

Yep

In the same vein, my playlist for today:

Dark Side of the Moon

Aqualung

[Big Hath]

[Lowdz]

Nice as ever Big H, though the only Death album I can listen to is TSoP.
Great Y&T album, featured in my top 50.

[Crow]

best described as "an album that happens"
maybe it will grow on me with relistens? but there's just nothing noteworthy about this album even if it's all kind of solid, it doesn't provide me with anything i can't get better elsewhere

[Crow]

never really warmed up to these vocals and tbh i didn't even recognize the one song here i did know because this has just not stuck with me at all

[Train of Naught]

Now + yesterday

Mercenary: Wow this is good. Only knew Redefine Me before but the album is on par with that
Nothing More: Definitely better than I remember it being. Just an all around solid prog/alternative metal release

[jjrock88]

Iron Maiden- No Prayer for the Dying

Lizzy Borden- Visual Lies

[Art]

[wolfking]

Just came in here to post this very album.

Lethal - Demo 91

[TAC]

I remember buying this and Metallica's TBA on the same day, and thinking what a huge dip for both bands. But both albums have aged magnificently!

Rik Emmett Live 1991 Westwood One broadcast

[Lowdz]

So I wasn't a Helloween fan back in the day. I heard a few singles and wrote them off as a Maiden clone with an annoying singer  , at a time I was losing the love for the real Maiden.
Now when I went back and had a listen properly a few years ago, I enjoy them a lot, especially the Keepers albums and Dark Ride.
I knew from back in the day that this album was pretty universally slated but when I played it I really liked it.

One of my Favorites

[NoseofNicko]

[Crow]

i'm dumb and had this on while doing writeups for the top 25 games thread so i kind of missed a lot of it but i also intended to get it anyways so whatever. because i could definitely use more folky black metal.

[Crow]

didn't even finish this, just too bored. the title track is still cool but the rest of this is the power metal i don't care for, or the power ballad that sounds like a late 90's rock ballad on the radio like aaugh no thanks

[jjrock88]

Helloween- Chameleon, Pink Bubbles Go Ape

[bl5150]

[Art]

What a run.

[Prog Snob]

[Tomislav95]

[Big Hath]

[romdrums]

[Progmetty]

[Tomislav95]

so good

[Evermind]

The fact you actually checked this album is just astonishing and hilarious at the same time.

[Crow]

anything 7.75 or above gets a full album listen 

[Evermind]

anything 7.75 or above gets a full album listen 

But you said you didn't even finish it, therefore it's not a full album listen.

[Crow]

they should've made the album more interesting then

I didn't finish slowdive or nothing more either so blah

[Evermind]

Going back on your word, I see.

[Crow]

my sentimental lie

[Crow]

cobalt: i got basically what i expect which was some rockin' black/sludge metal. i dunno if this is better than slow forever. probably since it doesn't go on quite as long? i still have gin to listen to anyways and i'm excited for it 'cause this is good
gorguts: the first track and the last two tracks i like a lot and the orchestral piece in the middle is cool too but the rest of this is leaving me a bit cold atm. it all blends together a bit too much i guess. but damn that opener and that closer, both awesome
insomnium: i don't know what to say about this beyond "it's really solid and pleasant and i enjoy it". it's not particularly unique and it's not something i really jam to but i enjoy listening to it regardless, good stuff
