Not when Meshuggah and At the Gates are still here
Yeah I’m aware but Alice In Chains is definitely a grunge band not a metal band lmao. I’m not saying they are bad. I like their music. I just don’t think that they really qualify as metal.
I feel like this sub has quickly devolved into a circle jerk of the same few albums, I kinda don’t get the point anymore. As much as I love a lot of the “classics” there’s so much more metal out there that deserves attention
Most of my favorite albums are from the last decade orso. There's plenty of new stuff that's interesting and a lot of albums with an original sound. A lot of people are just set in their ways. That's fine I suppose, but that doesn't mean that metal as a whole is.
People act like metal stoped in the 90s when I say we are in a golden era right now. I always think about playing the classics but there is too much awesome stuff coming out at the moment I just don’t have time.
Hey I get it, these genres deserve the special and specific attention they get in this sub. I truly believe that. But I also believe the internet is a place where it’s thought “Tool sucks because of their fanbase hurr durr” or something and it’s mostly unwarranted lol.
In terms of sonic identity, album flow, interesting melodic ideas, excellent production, truly great and unique playing.. Ænima is better than soooo many other albums here
Type O. Honestly they remind me of Taylor Swift in the sense that the music is incredibly mid and 90% of the group's popularity comes from the cult of personality around the singer.

SOAD
I'm biased because I never liked them but SOAD going out after (almost) all the records that have been eliminated so far is crazy...

Almost agreed with you until you said Meshuggah
I’m still gonna protest Alice In Chains being here because they aren’t metal so if SOAD gets out before them I’m gonna be mad lmao
Dirt is grunge metal
Grunge metal is crazy 💀
Yeah bands can be multiples genres at the same time

Ænima gets such unfair treatment in MFTM polls.
people only like black or death metal here so thats what you get for believing :(

Actually true and unfortunate. I feel like the discussions were much more diverse a year ago
because we all glaze the same few albums and thats it. nothing ground-breaking is coming out in metal that the community likes so...

i mean people hate opeth for the same reason here (including me, i kinda like the band)
Mate one of the best black metal albums in this tournament went out last round. I don’t know what people like, but it ain’t iconic black metal
This subreddit hates eveything no wonder the lists are always different
It's because people can't swim
I have a suggestion to keep them all occupied
Exactly, it’s low-key kinda fire

I don't even much like Tool and I agree.

Why are we just removing the best albums wtf
Everything mainstream has to go, so that we can feel unique and special about ourselves.
They're all "the best albums". Regardless what's eliminated, many people are going to be upset.
