CKN's Top 50 Albums of ALL TIME

  • We've reached the end. But there's a swansong video that needs discussed and updated. Many years ago, I presented my top 25 albums of all time, so has that changed any? Let's expand it to 50 albums, and get albums up to 2014 eligible and see how things pan out. Is there a new #1? Have any of the original 25 been ousted beyond the top 50? Does it matter? Probably not. I leave you all with my favorites. I love you.

      Awesome to see By Inheritance as #1 on somebody's list. I'm surprised it didn't make CKN's Top 50, although it's possible that he hasn't heard of it. To me it's just as if not more entertaining as Rust In Peace and Master Of Puppets if we're talking about thrash.

    I agree, Still Life is Opeth's true masterpiece. I like seeing Dissection in there too, Notdveidt was a genius who left us way too soon. Seeing Death's Symbolic made me feel nostalgic as well, with Carcass' Heartwork they were some of the first few albums that got me down in the extreme metal rabbit hole I'm still in.

    The Mantle!!! Man I feel ya, one of those albums that clings to you. Feels like an emotional extension of myself when I listen to it

    R.I.P is my favorite metal Album. Came out on my birth year. When i had some cash saved up the first thing i did was buy Dave Mustain's signature R.I.P Dean guitar.
