I left Led Zeppelin out of my list, as I regard them a prog/blues/rock band - thats a genre I've just invented BTW Zep could have their own top 10 IMO. They were one of the greatest rock bands of all time ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

I agree that it's hard to compare 70's "metal" with 80's and beyond metal, but for the sake of brevity, I'll combine 'em all. I also included some prog metal.
1. Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath 2. Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffitti 3. Black Sabbath - Paranoid 4. Megadeth - Rust In Peace (probably my favorite pure thrash album ever  )
5. Metallica - Master Of Puppets 6. Deep Purple - Machine Head 7. Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger (grunge metal?) 8. Dream Theater - Awake 9. Dream Theater - Train Of Thought (yep, it's more thrash than prog, but I like it a lot; sometimes I feel Snow Dog and myself are the only ones on this site that do) 10. Opeth - Blackwater Park |

well when you say top 10 heavy metal you mean albums from classic heavy
metal groups right? i mean no death metal, no power metal, no thrash
metal, no doom metal, no black metal and no progressive metal. ok in my
opinion the 10 best CLASSIC heavy metal albums according to the records i own and i've listened are: 1) Judas priest-screaming for vengeance 2) iron maiden-powerslave 3) black sabbath-headless cross 4) heavy load-stronger than evil 5) stormwitch-tales of terror 6) accept-metal heart 7) saxon-denim and leather 8) angelwitch-angelwitch 9) demon-taking the world by storm 10) dio-holy diver. -------------

These are the top 10 you should own if you like metal - and don't come up for discussion very often - even among metallers; 1. Raven - Wiped Out 2. Riot - Narita 3. Blackfoot - Marauder (also recommended: Strikes, Tomcattin' and Siogo) 4. Diamond Head - Living On Borrowed Time 5. Kreator - Extreme Aggression 6. Dark Angel - Darkness Descends 7. Motorhead - Overkill (also recommended: Everything with Fast Eddie and Philthy in the lineup) 8. Saxon - Saxon (also recommended: Everything up to and including "The Eagle has Landed") 9. Raven - Rock 'Til You Drop 10. Helloween - Walls Of Jericho
Quick note on Raven - "All For One" is their most accessible album (and also recommended), the two I listed suffer from dreadful production - but if you can put up with that, and the somewhat forced vocals of John Gallagher, the music is really special and unique. /edit: Crivens! I missed out sooo many unsung classics - but "Head On" by Samson is a MUST OWN!!! It features Bruce Dickinson on vocals, and it's Fan-f***ing-tastic!! |

I don't know much about metal and probably could not come up with ten bands if I tried. But has anyone mentioned Yngwie Mamlsteen's debut album Rising Force? If so, excuse me. If not- That album turned heavy metal on a new course and should be mentioned as a great pivitol milestone in the annals of metal history... ------------- Dreams. Gabor Szabo (1968) |

It took the blending of "classical" music and rock to a new level, and flushed the shredders out of the woodwork - but I don't think it was nearly as great a milestone as "Vincebus Eruptum", "Spooky Two", "Black Sabbath", "In Rock", "On Parole", "Back In Black", "Ace Of Spades", "Heaven and Hell", "The Number of the Beast", "Black Metal", "Hell Awaits", "Scum" or any of Metallica's first 5 albums (to name but a few!). There were some great ideas on "Rising Force" - but it's only the "shredding" style, or sweep-picking that has lived on - none of the musical ideas have filtered through to the mainstream, and Yngwie didn't invent that style or even do it first; he just popularised it - which is no mean feat. Listen to Steve Vai on "Ship Arriving Too Late To Save A Drowning Witch" to hear some truly dynamite guitar work that predates "Rising Force" by half a decade. |

What's even more important: Malmsteen didn't evolve/progress. Not even a tiny bit. Vai on the other hand went through the roof ... I highly recommend his latest two albums (Ultra Zone and Real Illusions: Reflections) and his work with the Metropole Orkest. Couldn't we introduce a new category "Progressive Shred" in the archives? Or at least consider Vai as Fusion and add him there ... ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/release-polls/pa" rel="nofollow - Release Polls Listened to:

Seeing you guys mention Raven brings back memories.I remember buying Stay Hard as a teenager around 84-85 and loving it,and trying desperately to find their earlier albums.Finally found Rock Until You Drop,Wiped out and All for One. And I was very surprised to see no one but me even mention Armored Saint,one of the best metal bands of the early 80's.John Bush had an awesome voice. ------------- |

You guys have a severe lack of melodic black metal and power metal on
your lists. Jus ta lot of prog metal/thrash metal/hard rock. I'll go
with something a little different, although this isn't quite what my
actualy list owuld be...throw a Metallica and Judas Priest album in
here somewhere. 1. Opeth - Blackwater Park 2. Kamelot - The Black Halo 3. Kamelot - Epica 4. Dimmu Borgir - Death Cult Armageddon 5. Blind Guardian - Imaginations From The Other Side 6. Opeth - My Arms, Your Hearse 7. Helloween - Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part II 8. Nightwish - Oceanborn 9. In Flames - The Jester Race 10. Iced Earth - Something Wicked This Way Comes  Ohhh boy, I'm gonna get killed for having Dimmu Borgir and In Flames on their...hehe. See my CD collection is split into three parts: prog (probably the biggest), prog metal (big), and metal (as big as prog metal). Soooo...I'm a big metal head too. The growling and screaming in Dimmu Borgir took some time, but their music reminds me much of Opeth, as in (with lesser frequency) they'll suddenly bust into this crazy like classical or dramatic section with WONDERFUL vocals...then go crazy again. http://www.metalstorm.ee/bands/view_albums.php?band_id=opeth - ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/FishyMonkey/?chartstyle=artists">

"Classic" Heavy Metal? I'll bite, even though I'm more into the extreme
sub-genres, normally ones with organic production, flowing
compositions, tending towards loose ambient rather than headbanging,
aggresso-fodder. Some great Classic stuff: Judas Priest - Stained Class Judas Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny Black Sabbath - S/T Black Sabbath - Sabotage Deep Purple - Machine Head Angel Witch - S/T Iron Maiden - Killers Fates Warning - The Spectre Within Fates Warning - Awaken the Guardian Helstar - Nosferatu WASP - The Crimson Idol Well, that was 11, in no order. |

Good list Tony, especially Montrose. About the only things I changes are Sabbath and Scorpions and maybe Ted Nugent's first instead. Maybe add Lone Star's first and Led Zep II. |

Judas Priest- Sad Wings Of Destiny
Black Sabbath- Volume 4
Iron Maiden- The Number Of The Beast
Motorhead- Ace Of Spades
Saxon- Wheels Of Steel
Metallica- Master Of Puppets
Thin Lizzy- Live and Dangerous
UFO- Strangers In The Night
Rainbow- Rising
Van Halen- Van Halen
Honourable mention to: AC/DC- Back In Black, Helloween- Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part 1 (part 2 is weaker, imho), Scorpions- Blackout, Megadeth- Rust In Peace, Whitesnake- 1987, Samson- Shock Tactics, Def Leppard- Hysteria, Dio- Holy Diver, Angel Witch- Angel Witch, Ozzy Osbourne- Blizzard Of Oz.
I discount Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Uriah Heep- as many previous posters have suggested they aren't quite heavy metal, imho of course. Also restricted myself to one album per band, else multiple Priest, Sabbath and Maiden albums would have appeared...

Here's my top 15, because I'm not sure if all my fave's are considered to be heavy metal.
Sadly I have to omit wonderful albums by Judas Priest (Sad Wings), Fear Of God (Within The Veil), Carcass (Necroticism) and Tiamat (Wildhoney). I still enjoy the above mentioned albums. IMO varying between listening to prog, metal and classical music keeps it still interesting for me. ------------- I'm running still, I shall until, one day I hope that I'll arrive |

 Most of what's listed here I've never heard.
My "metal" (perhaps more hard rock) tastes, past and present:
Younger days (rarely listened to for the past quarter-century)
Alice Cooper
Black Sabbath
Blue Oyster Cult
Rainbow
Queen -- Sheer Heart Attack
Still Dig:
Deep Purple
Uriah Heep (?)
Led Zeppelin
Van Halen (with D. L. Roth)
Fusion fave Steve Morse (and, arguably, recent Jeff beck) approaches metal at times, as does latter-day King Crimson -- great stuff!
I've dug lots of ACDC riffs in the past, but the vocals really put me off (I don't like screamers).
Besides the odd song here and there (such as Metallica's "Enter Sandman"), that's really it for me, as far as metal goes. I just can't take it when it gets too fast, or when the lyrics are relentlessly dark. (Lyrics mean a lot to me -- if I can't relate to them, I won't really get into the band.)
I guess, overall, I'd rather hang out and sing along with elves and hobbits, instead of orcs and ogres.
 (Though many here would no doubt find it "boring," I like lots of traditional music -- a vocalist like Kate Rusby is about as far from the metal end of the musical spectrum as it gets, I suppose.)

PS: I finally bought Van Halen's debut this weekend  (the Ramones' first, too! ).

The more predictable list
Note: I consider "Heavy Metal" to be NWOBHM and that timeframe (roughly 1976-1986, although more specifically 1979-1983), as the term was used posthumously to describe 1970s "Hard Rock" bands...;
1. AC/DC - Back in Black
2. Motorhead - Ace of Spades
3. Metallica - Ride the Lightning
4. Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast
5. Van Halen - Van Halen
6. Riot - Narita
7. Skid Row - Skid Row
8. Diamond Head - Living on Borrowed Time
9. Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell
10. Judas Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny
The Underdogs (albums that should have been much, much bigger)
1. Samson - Head On
2. Raven - Wiped Out (although "All for One" has a more commercial sound, and the three "BIG" songs; "Mind Over Metal", "All For One" and "Run Silent Run Deep").
3. Angelwitch - Angelwitch
4. Slayer - Reign in Blood (I know, every metal fan these days raves about it, but NWOBHM fans always overlook Slayer!)
5. Motorhead - Overkill
6. Tank - Filth Hounds of Hades
7. Venom - At War With Satan
8. Lawnmower Death - Oooh Crikey, It's Lawnmower Death
9. Napalm Death - Scum
10. K-Tel Axe Attack Vol 1 (I know, I cheated - but every headbanger should own a copy! Add Speed Kills Vol 1, and you've got an even more complete picture). ------------- The important thing is not to stop questioning. |

Weird, I've just been going through a big nostalgia trip of late 70s and early 80s hard rock and metal, largely prompted by reading John Tucker's patchy but interesting trawl through that period called The New Wave of British Heavy Metal: Suzi Smiled which prompted me to listen to Lars Ulrich's excellent compilation of that period and dig out a whole host of old metal lps I'd last listened to when I was about 14. Guess it's a midlife crisis thing but damn I enjoyed sticking on Screaming for Vengeance and High and Dry and Ready and Willing. I rediscovered songs that I adored then and even now I happily find that I still like the melodies in some of them (though admittedly some are just juvenile tripe, badly played, badly produced and badly written). But for what it's worth here's the top 10 of my listening from that golden (or at least gold-foil covered) age (in no particular order): 1 Michael Schenker Group - Michael Schenker Group 2. Judas Priest - Screaming for Vengeance 3. Def Leppard - High and Dry 4. Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell 5. AC/DC - Powerage 6. Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast 7. Ozzy Osbourne - Blizzard of Ozz 8. Angel Witch - Angel Witch 9. Diamond Head - Borrowed Time 10. Michael Schenker Group - MSG (2nd album) Just for the oldies it's also worth revisiting a few lost "treasures" from that period - I'd refer you first to the band Shiva - an almost good Rush clone that if you're a fan of NWOBHM are worth hearing, their "Firedance" album is fun. Also Raven's "Rock Until You Drop" a great fun album, Tank's punk/metal melange "Filth Hounds of Hades, even Saxon (bless 'em), their "Wheels of Steel" album is a good laugh. If you really want to delve deeper then try to find some stuff by Trespass, the silly and faintly hilarious Witchfinder General and Blitzkrieg who had some good stuff. And if you're really curious have a look at http://www.nwobhm.com/ which is a good encyclopedia of bands from those halcyon schooldays when you could start a heavy metal band with your classmates in your bedroom on a Sunday, release a Sabs rip-off on Tuesday on your own label and have it played by Neal Kay at the Soundhouse the following weekend. Funny times. |

I have that album on vinyl:
 Several euphemisms used there Just...
"an almost good Rush clone" = "really quite awful"
"their "Firedance" album is fun" = only fun somehow means "crap"...
I seem to remember the vocalist was appalling..
I might dig it out the attic tomorrow and give it a spin....
Just noticed you reference Angel Witch - they were quite possibly the worst band I ever saw live.... their "classic" Angelwitch track seemed to have the inspired chorus :" you're an Angelwitch, you're an Angelwitch" if I remember correctly..
..those were the days, eh?

Oh Tony, you saw Kevin Heybourne and the Witch live? Yes, they were horrible live.. I've got several tapes from their gigs in England (Blackpool I think) and they sound like crap... too bad.

Thanks - I'll track down a copy
Raven should have done much better than they did - great band.
Their debut,"Saxon", "Strong Arm of the Law", "Denim and Leather" and "The Eagle has Landed (live)" are metal classics too - Saxon were superb live - great entertainment!
Witchfinder General - now you had to have a sense of humour to appreciate them... pity they didn't.
 Anyone even vaguely familiar with Metallica's "Master of Puppets" album should listen to http://truemetal.org/battle/remasters1.html - "Rainbow Warrior" by Bleak House (you won't be able to afford a copy of the single). Is it just me, or does it sound a little bit like the last track on side 1 of MoP?
Oh, and DON'T listen to Quartz's cover of "Nantucket Sleighride" (at the same link) - it sucks worse than a sucking thing in Suck St., Sucksville.
/edit: I didn't spot until now that this thread had been resurrected - interesting to see changes in personal HM top 10s  ------------- The important thing is not to stop questioning. |

Angel Witch's debut I rather enjoy, but the title track is pretty dumb stuff. I think it's fair to say Rush and Black Sabbath were a big influence on their sound.
Another rather good NWOBHM album I have is Witchfynde's 'Give 'Em Hell'. This album's biggest drawback is the production- it sounds like every track was recorded somewhere completely different, on my CD version at least. However, the song 'Leavin' Nadir' is excellent, imho. I have an excellent 3-cd box set of various NWOBHM also-rans called 'Lightning To The Nations'- some of the names mentioned here are on that, I believe.
I had Quartz's debut and 'Live Quartz' on a 2cd a while back- not very good imo, despite the producer credit Tony Iommi got.
Saxon were on some show yesterday with Harvey Goldsmith trying to resurrect the career of various hasbeens- pretty desparate really. I didn't see it as I was watching the Life On Mars finale but there was a big article on it in Classic Rock. I still think 'Wheels Of Steel' is one of THE great NWOBHM albums, with 'Strong Arm Of The Law' and 'Denim and Leather' being not far behind. They lose it for me with 'The Power And The Glory' which didn't quite have the songs of the earlier ones, imho of course.

That chorus of "You're an Angel Witch, Youuuuu're an Angel Witch" is just too good to resist!! You can't help enjoying the sheer thick-headedness of it. Tony, you should dig out the Shiva album. Yup the singer's awful but it doesn't half bring back some memories. Sometimes not in a good way admittedly. But hell, what a nostalgia trip! It was such a great time with all this punk-ethic, homebrew metal being released all the time., The birth of Kerrang! magazine and how seriously me and my mates took it all. Yes the music's largely sh*te but it such a good laugh to listen to it all again. And in there are a few gems: Digging out MSG's first album and hearing Lost Horizons or On and On from the second album or Love to Love by UFO or Take These Chains by Judas Priest, is just brilliant. After 20 odd years they're still great examples of melodic rock at its best. Go on, give it a go, raid the attic, drag out some UFO, Angel Witch, Shiva, Tygers of Pan Tang, Def Leppard, Sweet Savage, Samson, Diamond Head et al, grab a can of the cheapest, foulest lager you can get, spark up a Lambert & Butler (if they still exist), chow down on an Aztec bar and there you go - instant teen years in a box. |

Some really fantastic bands and albums mentioned here (too many to go through), many of which suffer the prog rock syndrome.
I refer to genres, heavy metal, heavy rock, rock, NWOBHM, and god forgive me prog metal. Who is what and where do they fit...another 100 years of discussion and fallout.
