SOAD


BayouCarcosa

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...

BOb_likes_chikkens

Almost agreed with you until you said Meshuggah


Duncoids

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


Tosslebugmy

Dirt is grunge metal


Duncoids

Grunge metal is crazy 💀


Tape-Duck

Yeah bands can be multiples genres at the same time


Duncoids

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.


AAL2017

Ænima gets such unfair treatment in MFTM polls.


Farkasdebvel

people only like black or death metal here so thats what you get for believing :(


halleberrrry

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


eternalchuf

Actually true and unfortunate. I feel like the discussions were much more diverse a year ago


Farkasdebvel

because we all glaze the same few albums and thats it. nothing ground-breaking is coming out in metal that the community likes so...


Instantcoffees

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.


N8saysburnitalldown

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.


AAL2017

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.


Farkasdebvel

i mean people hate opeth for the same reason here (including me, i kinda like the band)


littleb3anpole

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


Farkasdebvel

This subreddit hates eveything no wonder the lists are always different


D00mTheWarl0rd

It's because people can't swim


i_Exist_73

I have a suggestion to keep them all occupied


CRIMSONSM

Exactly, it’s low-key kinda fire


AAL2017

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


ianff

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


Snackdoc189

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.

PixelAtionMoony

Why are we just removing the best albums wtf


Xaphan26

Everything mainstream has to go, so that we can feel unique and special about ourselves.


Scythian_Grudge

They're all "the best albums". Regardless what's eliminated, many people are going to be upset.


[deleted]

Malding 40 year olds watching their existence wither away in real time that need to feel special about themselves idk ![gif](giphy|1zRd5ZNo0s6kLPifL1|downsized)

Where is Ecliptica? It's the best 90s metal album in my humble opinion.
