I've also noted that most of these people, when listing their favorite bands, tend to seriously favor bands that are technically or melodically complex, as opposed to artists who play simple badass riff-centric shit-kicking metal. My take on it is this: You are not automatically more knowledgeable, nor are your tastes any better just because you prefer complex music. A lot of the best metal has a great level of complexity and depth, but there's also just as much equally great metal that relies on simplicity and groove to get the job done. Hating on simple metal does not make you a more experienced or tasteful metalhead. Some of us really like down-tuned, shit-kicking meathead riffs just as much as we like musical flights of fancy and exotic soundscapes.

Actually it's been a looong time since I listened to Nightwish, but yeah I admit to love some of it. Phoenix Rising is actually my only D666 album shame... hey you'll hear me scream on Prelude to the Oracle from the next Sigh album, I'll also be in the videoclip! Well we were just a bunch of fans screaming the chorus and getting crazy, awesome. Oh and I recently saw, new Sabbat album early 2010! It was time!! Yeah they have a limited view on metal, and there are Lamb of God, Shadows Fall guys and others from that kind of music, so the list looses a LOT of credibility. And lol no mainstream stuff? I hope (and think) it wasn't serious. Hell I'm sure some people don't even know who are Sodom and Kreator... Eastern Force of Evil!!

HA . We wish. That album is indeed amazing. Unfortunatly, I've noticed that in order for an album to make this list, it must be available for instore purchase at Best Buy. Thats a bright red flag that these people really don't know much metal. Blut Aus Nord?? HA . We wish. That album is indeed amazing.

My Drudkh pick would be "Blood in our Wells",followed closely by "Autumn Aurora". I would also place "Cold Steel for an Iron Age" above "Phoenix Rising"....although "I am the Wargod" off Phoenix is probably the best song they've ever written....but I think Cold Steel....is more solid overall. As far as 21st century Sodom, "M-16" hands down, although the s/t is awesome as well. Can't wait to hear the new one. Also looking forward to the new Sigh. The people voting for this list have a VERY, very limited view of metal. Looking back through the list, I've made the unsettling discovery that ALL of these albums listed can be puchased at Best Buy. That is certainly not a good sign if all your music cravings can be fullfilled at a chain retail store. H20- besides the Nightwish, you and I seem to have the exact same taste in music. Metalucifier!!! Sabbat!!! FastKill.... Jap metal rules. DARKNESS AND EVIIIIIIILLLLL !!! I gotta agree with your list nearly 100%. My Drudkh pick would be “Blood in our Wells”,followed closely by “Autumn Aurora”.

I am sorry, i can't get into them I've tried. Also when am I going to see God Hates Us All or Christ Illusion?...and I know its too late for The Oncoming Storm.
