What classics do you want to see reviewed?

WinterIsComing

Alice Cooper's Raise Your Fist and Yell album is simply amazing, one of the most perfect albums I ever heard.

Even though the re-issue of At The Gates's Slaughter of The Soul is reviewed here, I think the original Slaughter of the Soul should be listed as a classic. It was the album that invented melodeath, no one would argue its worthiness.

I just realised you've never reviewed anything by Heathen....

...this could be a good start !

What is the time gap between Classic reviews?? Haven't seen one after DMDS...

Breaking the Silence would be an excellent review. My favorite part about the album are the "light-saber" solos, as I like to call them. The Heathen guitar players and the guys from Forbidden are some of the most talented and underrated guitar players of all time. Hammet and Mustaine get more cred then them and they arent half as creative.....well at least not Hammer, Mustaine maybe in the early days when he was a fucking maniac....but no longer.

agreed on the fact that both Forbidden & Heathen pairs are way underrated....

but, sorry, when comparing Hammet to Mustaine my choice would have to be Hammet... why ? more melodies, more ideas and way better technical skills...

last thing, best thrash guitarist ever : Tommy Vetterli... agreed ? :roll:

Hello reviewers!
I don’t complain about your choice of albums to review (archives, classics, surprises, whatever…). However, I do think that loads of classic albums are still missing in this great site, my number 1 reference for high-quality heavy metal.

If not classics, at least in the archive section – IMHO:
Mercyful Fate - Melissa
King Diamond - Abigail, Them
Black Sabbath - Mob Rules
Dio - Last in Line
Judas Priest - Killing Machine, Sad Wings of Destiny, Stained Class, Screaming For Vengeance
Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast, Powerslave, Killers , Iron Maiden
Metallica - Master of Puppets, Ride the Lightning
Helloween - Keeper of the 7 Keys Pt. I

BTW… The next ones are definitely not classics; but I would love to read an archive review of those:
King Diamond – Fatal Portrait, The Spider's Lullabye
Mercyful Fate - Into The Unknown
Dio - Strange Highways
Dream Theater - When Dream And Day Unite
Candlemass - Epicus Doomicus Metallicus

So... Are there any comments about my lists?

WinterIsComing

Bruce Dickinson's Accident of Birth is an absolute classic. Damn how I wish he would leave Iron Maiden and continue making such awesome and original music.

:twisted: -iron maiden-number of the beast
-metallica-master of puppets
-machine head-burn my eyes
-ac/dc-if you want blood you got it :twisted:

Metallica-Ride The Lightning
Bruce Dickinson's Accident of Birth

Caligula_K

Sodom's Agent Orange and Kreator's Coma of Souls need to be reviewed, along with many other German thrash albums (Exumer's Possessed by Fire, Tankard's The Morning After and Mekong Delta's Dances of Death, for example).

Dago

Some Sodom albums are absolutely a must! Especially, code red, tapping the vein, m16, agent orange!

Dago

I do not know if The Morning After by Tankard is a classic to me it is more like a 85/100

Metallica - Ride the Lightning
Master of Puppets

Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Destruction
Use Your Illusion 1 & 2

Rush - Permanent Waves

Pantera - Cowboys From Hell

The Cult - Sonic Temple

These are just a few albums i think should be reviewed as classics.
Its not my f***ing problem if you dont agree.

Firstly... calm the fuck down.

Secondly, Rush and The Cult are not metal.

Thirdly, Cowboys from Hell has already been reviewed, though not as a classic. Take it up privately with Aleksie if you disagree with the status it currently holds.

Someone'll probably get around to the Metallica reviews eventually.

I don't know whether or not the folks here at Metal Reviews would consider these "classics", but here are some records I'd like to see reviewed:

Anthrax - Among The Living and Sound Of White Noise

Machine Head - Burm My Eyes and The More Things Change

Slayer - South Of Heaven

Metallica - Master of Puppets (how could you POSSIBLY exclude the most popular heavy metal album ever from your "classics").

Sepultura - Arise and Roots

Iron Maiden - Number Of The Beast (again, read my Master of Puppets comments).

Zeth

I would really like to see a review of Opeth's Still Life.
