Modern Trad Heavy Metal Classics

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Didn't want to leave heavy metal out of this poll series on modern classics though this poll is even more of a joke than thrash was since I had to go all the way down to number 344 on the RYM chart to get 25 albums by different artists from the 2006 - 2016 release window.

	The Sword for me, but it's more of a stoner/doom album than anything else. As far as trad heavy metal goes, I'd probably vote Motorhead or Accept.

	It was tagged as stoner/heavy on RYM and I wasn't being picky by that point with this poll. Literally only Pagan Altar is in the top 100 for post-2006 heavy metal.

	Iron Maiden. Book of Souls has copped plenty of criticism, but I like it a lot.

	^It's gotten criticism in the way anything by a big name band will: It gets a lot of attention, so of course it'll have a lot of haters. Many fans also think it's amazing, though, and one of their better efforts, and I agree. Don't even need to see the other options to know it's my vote.

	As tempted as I am to vote for Iron Maiden, I went with Hell - Curse & Chapter.

	Went with Hell's Curse & Chapter, though The Book of Souls is of course excellent too.
