Great video dudeman! I love Heavy Metal but there are a lot of mid bands like most of the NWOBHM and NWOTHM bands, and older bands like Manilla Road and Cirith Ungol, good bands, just not amazing. My favorite Heavy Metal albums are all by: -Black Sabbath -Judas Priest -Iron Maiden -Def Leppard -Steel Panther -Mercyful Fate/King Diamond -Motorhead
Abigail is legendary! I've always had a soft spot for Them and Conspiracy, but Abigail has a tone and ambience the others can't quite match. Seeing The Crimson Idol on a best of all time list really surprised me, but I love that album to death. Blackie's vocals are truly amazing. As far as concept albums go, only the absolute perfection of Queensrÿche's Operation: Mindcrime ranks higher for me. Mindcrime also happens to be the best album ever recorded, regardless of artist, genre and time period.
Abigail！・・・great concept album. Especially、 possession is my favorite track. At that time、this album received poor reviews in Japan、But Abigail have fantastic mood and great story. BEST METAL album ranking for me↓. ①Black Sabbath /Paranoid ②Whitesnake/1987 ③Dio/The last in line ④Lovebites/Electric pentagram ⑤Ozzy Osbourne/Blizzard of ozz ⑥Iron Maiden/Somewhere in time ⑦Judas Priest/Painkiller ⑧Queensryche/Operation mindcrime ⑨Dreamtheater/Images & words ⑩Nocturnal Rites/The 8th sin ⑪MSG/Msg ⑫Blue Murder/Blue murder ⑬King Diamond/Abigail ⑭Geezer/Black science ⑮Metallica/Master of puppets
A cool list, nice to see some rare choices like the Saxon album which is still my favorite of theirs too while it's somtimes a lower title on fans' lists, I love that damn album from back when they had that 'boogie metal' wipe they were almost like the Status Quo of heavy metal in the early days... 🥳
The Crimson Idol is the second best concept album in metal. Nothing will ever beat Operation Mindcrime but TCI is damn good. I don’t care what anyone says, Under Lock and Key is a masterpiece.
Loved the video and your sense of humor mate, keep it up with the great work. And while I don't completely agree with your list (which is natural of), it's an absolutely solid list, banger after banger
@RYDAHN666 I would definitely change the places of a couple of records (Painkiller, Powerslave and Holy Diver are my top 3), I personally prefer "Them" over Abigail by King Diamond and I would include Thundersteel by Riot instead of Saxon's Strong Arm Of The Law.
Classic Heavy Metal, my favorite music genre ever. Here's my list (not in order): - Black Sabbath: Paranoid, - Budgie: Never Turn Your Back on a Friend, - Rainbow: Rising, - Judas Priest: Stained Class, - Motörhead: Overkill, - Saxon: Wheels of Steel, - Iron Maiden: Iron Maiden, - Diamond Head: Lightning to the Nations, - Angel Witch: Angel Witch, - Venom: Welcome to Hell, - Scorpions: Blackout, - Accept: Restless and Wild, - Witchfinder General: Death Penalty, - Mercyful Fate: Melissa, - Satan: Court in the Act.
Hi "Poser", I very much like your list, all classics. Of course I might have chosen 15 different albums; Number of the Beast e.g., The Eagle has landed etc. And where are the Scorpions, Queensryche and Savatage? But as you said, we're all brothers in Metal and thank you for your inspirations 🤘🏻🎸
Great list of classics. I would have swapped out Dokken for Shout at the devil, but your right about George Lynch on that album, stellar guitar player.
Yes!!!!! Slave to the Grind, Powerslave, Rainbow Rising, Ride the Lightening, Crimson Idol and Holy Diver are all legendary albums!! Nothing wrong with Dokken, George Lunch is a total beast of a player! 🤘 I’d slip in Rust in Peace, Cowboys from Hell and October Rust from Type O Negative. 👍
Sabbath Sabotage , Priest Sad Wings Of Destiny , Sabbath Paranoid , Priest Defenders Of the Faith , Metallica Ride the Lightning , Metallica Master Of Puppets , Megadeth Rust In Peace , Iron Maiden Number Of The Beast , Iron Maiden Somewhere In Time , Accept Balls To The Wall , Quiet Riot Metal Health , Saxon Denim And Leather , Tygers Of Pan Tang Spellbound , Iced Earth The Dark Saga , Primal Fear Seven Seals
@@darrellpasion8925 , nope , never really cared for them to be honest , recognize the talent , but not my jam , neither is Anthrax , Pantera , any death or black metal , just not my jam .., and don't get me started on nu metal or any other of these hundreds of bloody sub genres ..,
I always say if a kid ask me what is and how is the sound of heavy metal, I answer:"Well buddy, look the painkiller video, and after that, if you feel like naaaah is just OK, then forget it, keep listening REGAETTON", hello from Madrid
chronological list = all these were at one point classified as Heavy Metal, so no Thrash , Death, Groove, industrial or Alt. Metal makes the list Led Zep II Deep Purple in Rock Very Eavy Very Umble Vol.4 Never Turn your Back on a Friend Queen Kiss Rainbow Rising Let There be Rock Killing Machine/Hell Bent for Leather Ace of Spades Women and Children First Diary of a Madman Lightning to the Nations Holy Diver Power and the Glory Balls to the Wall Shout at the Devil Powerslave W.A.S.P Stay Hungry Don't Break the Oath Marching Out Appetite for Destruction Raise Your Fist and Yell Operation Mindcrime Slave to the Grind no Dokken hate, just had to stop the list at some point lol.
Never apologize for what you like. Regardless of what metal purists say, it was all called metal at some point. Cream Magazine once called Boston, Heart, Styx, and Led Zeppelin heavy metal. Just because metal music got heavier over the years changes nothing. Also, heavy metal and Metal are sometimes very different things. And I would’ve picked Tooth and Nail or Back For The Attack, but Under Lock and Key is great as well.
ok, this is your list, and I appreciate your list, nicely put together.... but for my personal taste, there is too much missing: Iron Maiden, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Queensryche, Helloween, Blind Guardian....where are they? On the other Hand: many great Albums on the List, great to see some love for Dio, Priest and the KIng. Nice Shirt, got the same one!
I get where you’re coming from, to be clear this list is for Heavy Metal, the subgenre with Metal Music at large. For example, I covered Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer in my thrash metal video. For Helloween and Blind Guardian I personally consider them power metal so I wouldn’t consider them for this list. Appreciate the comment!
@RYDAHN666 ok, thanks for your explanation, so I might have misunderstood your approach, as far as those Bands go you have mentioned... keep up the good work
I actually like UDO solo over Accept with Steelhammer my fav. When I listen to UDO I question if I own anything else that is metal. Yes, Ride the Lightning is my fav from Metallica despite Master having some really awesome songs. Can’t say I’ve liked any 21st century song of theirs. Warlock Triumph and Agony and Krokus Blitz are two I really loved in the 80s and still do. Ozzy No More Tears amazing but also love No Rest for Wicked start to finish. Both are tons better than Moon to me. Kiss Revenge is great. Motley’s first 2. Dokken’s greatest hits are way more than enough of them for me. I’d choose Damn Yankees s/t over their gh let alone an album from them. Painkiller is awesome too, totally agree. Ok, that is metal beyond UDO too😊

Under Lock and Key??? Tooth and Nail or Back For the Attack are much better. Maiden Number of the Beast or 7th Son are also better. Where is the 80s prog metal and concept album masterpiece Queensryche Operation Mindcrime??? Then how about Dream Theater Images and Words, the pioneer of combining true metal heaviness and prog complexity?? Painkiller should be no. 1 as well.
@RYDAHN666 I am also not huge on QR but Operation Mindcrime to me is the best metal album of the 80s, just a perfect album start to finish with a great concept story in it. I'd rank it right up in there at the top along with Painkiller! Then DT was the one who turned me into a fan of complex style prog metal, combining the technicalities of Rush and the heaviness of metal, just brilliant musicians.
This list is why millennials should be banned from making lists for Heavy metal. Just kidding.... Thought Iron Maiden was a little too low on the list, and it's represented album surprised it wasn't Number of the Beast or Piece of Mind..... No Metallica? DAMN... Not even an honorable mention... But hey it's your list... 🤘
I have Metallica in my Thrash metal video, I understand where you’re coming from with Iron Maiden, my favorite songs from them are spread out across the discography so while as a band (or entire discography if you will) I rate them highly I don’t rate their individual albums in the same proportion just because my 10 favorite maiden songs are probably spread out over like 6 albums you catch my drift?
Wolf Hoffman, not Hartman😆👍
My mistake thanks 👍🏻

Iron Maidens "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" is better than Operation Mindcrime. Two concept albums that came out the same year.

And while I don't completely agree with your list (which is natural of), it's an absolutely solid list, banger after banger
Appreciate it! What’s on your list not on mine? Always looking for new stuff

Was surprised that Metallica and Maiden didn't make it. Metallica's definitely not my cup of tea, but Maiden sure is!
I consider Metallica Thrash metal not heavy metal, and I got Maiden in here at 7, I was brief with it
@RYDAHN666 Wow how the hell could I have missed it?? Oh well, at least you got Ronnie in there twice! 🤘
Hi "Poser",
I very much like your list, all classics. Of course I might have chosen 15 different albums; Number of the Beast e.g., The Eagle has landed etc.
And where are the Scorpions, Queensryche and Savatage?
But as you said, we're all brothers in Metal and thank you for your inspirations 🤘🏻🎸
Not super into Queensryche, haven’t listened a ton to the other two
I completely agree with Accept but I think Restless and Wild eclipses Balls to the Wall
I can’t argue against that, Restless probably my number 2, either that or Blood of the Nations
Great list of classics. I would have swapped out Dokken for Shout at the devil, but your right about George Lynch on that album, stellar guitar player.
Great vid, I think you would like us power metal, check out bands like cirith ungol, manilla road, warlord, savatage, riot etc
Thanks for the recommendations 👍🏻
Don't forget Manowar
And Fates Warning
decent list man , like much in it .., if not all :)
No problem man, we’re all brothers in metal
Really liked This video, the list and I pretty much listens to all the albums
