where's all the djent and the deathcore?!?!?

Look a little harder, Bury Your Dead, The Red Chord, and killwhitneydead are all in there somewhere. :lol:

Metalcore more than anything else, but I'd be lying if I said there wasn't some trendy-core that I enjoy from time to time.

NOTE: Only my top 10 are in anything like order.
I'm not seeing nearly enough Anthony Phillips or Steve Hackett.

By far my favorite band, every single album of theirs has its own distinct sound. IMHO theyre one of the most unique bands out there at the moment. Check out stuff from the Violet album too if you want dark and scary :agreed:


Yeah I saw the video for blue. I havent had a song scare the shit out of me like that in a long time. It reminds me of really being in a nightmare. Things start out innocent and then things just get dark and terrifying. They really are unique. And I love a band that is different but not for the sake of being different. The singer reminds me almost as if she is writing songs from the perspective of being a child which creeps me out even more. I have a feeling Im really gonna get into them.

Just realized I missed Beyond Creation

And after thinking about it Jarle H Olsen should be in the top 10, not second tier classics, maybe knock Omnivium down to second tier

The things these lists do to my head

I only had enough patience to do 50.. only one record per band/artist. Looking at it now there are a few I'd change. Oh well, fuck it.

Kinda feel like going back and doing top 50 records that make me want to pull my hair out.. that'd be fun. ps I can't believe I haven't heard the Electric Wizard record that I see popping up on a few lists. Gonna have to look into that!

ps- The Somberlain your list has some great stuff on it.. looks like you didn't check the "allow artist/album text" or whatever box at the bottom of the page so it lists everything to the right... I almost forgot to as well.

This was very interesting. Made me think of damn near every record from my childhood to now.

I am quite satisfied with this list, though I'm sure I'll think of other records that I would've liked to add later.

I am amazed someone else liked U2's Pop. I thought it was a great album - the last exciting thing they did before they settled into a bland arena rock band IMO. If you listened to both Pop and OK Computer, you can hear two bands arriving at a similar place sound-wise at around the same time (1997). It worked out better for Radiohead though.

Yup, my thoughts exactly. Not only was that one of my favorite records from my youth, it was the last thing they did worth listening to. I'm still angry at how 'All You Can't Leave Behind' turned out. Pure, bland garbage. In my eyes, U2 ended after 'Pop'...and the Batman 3 single they did.

It's nice to see I'm not the only one with that record in my top 100 :)yesway:Bloody_Inferno, Pawel:yesway:)
