I like how Hybrid Theory was just considered a given. That’s how you know an album is legendary

[@jaredgunderson6530]

One-X, Phobia by Breaking Benjamin, and Comatose by Skillet were some of the albums that ended up getting me into heavy music.

[@therestingmitchface6241]

That Comatose album is still one of my favorite albums. Such a good project

[@kylekemper4217]

Amen! Also Fallen by Evanescence

[@Connor.Klassen]

Whispers in the Dark goes hard

[@trevorboheler6507]

[@JhamEntertainment]

I’m not a fan of Skillet like I used to be but I still think Comatose has some classic bangers honestly. Peak skillet.

[@BaenaCarcosa]

THAT HOODIE THO

[@Gary_a_normal_human_being]

I bet the band produces straight BANGERS

[@GoodDealington]

There’s more, but here’s some of my most influential albums: Killswitch Engage - Alive or Just Breathing Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare All That Remains - The Fall of Ideals Parkway Drive - Horizons In Flames - Clayman The Black Dahlia Murder - Nocturnal Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction Rise Against - Appeal to Reason Trivium - Shogun Mushroomhead - Savior Sorrow

[@jbrown0176]

Shogun to this day is my top five albums of all time

[@mutated__donkey5840]

yes appeal to reason

[@simonmarcoux5879]

I might be old, but I am surprised at your Rise Against album choice! I would have gone with siren song or the suffer and the witness. Care to shed some light on me regarding that?

[@rsto]

One-X is such a badass album, I still love this album even today I can't stop listening to it.

“I’ve created the Sound Of Madness….”

[@tudorburlacu15]

Awaken the fire is one of the greatest albums ever

[@brianfinley3683]

Without duplicating any in the video, my list would go: 1. Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge - MCR 2. Enema of The State - Blink 3. American Idiot - Green Day 4. As Daylight Dies - KSE 5. Shogun - Trivium I love these albums so much to this day and #4 and #5 directly lead me to bands like Lamb of God and beyond as I grew into more of a metal head

[@deathmetaldenim1783]

Thre Cheers will always SLAP

[@HeavyMetalGamer78]

Shogun I believe was also my introduction to Trivium and I haven't been able to put them down since. Easily favorite band for me

Phobia - Breaking Benjamin American Idiot - Green Day Waking The Fallen - Avenged Sevenfold Still Not Getting Any - Simple Plan Artist In The Ambulance - Thrice All albums I can still listen to front to back and not get bored.

[@EldritchPilgrim]

Sooo many albums. Slipknot - Iowa Korn - Follow the Leader Motograter (self titled) Bloodsimple - A Cruel World Godsmack - Awake But my crown has to go to the one that started getting me into rock and heavier music; Rise Against - Siren Song of the Counter Culture

[@NoxiousLyom]

I've been listening to Iowa a lot the last few weeks. So good

[@joandrumz3176]

Avenged Sevenfold - City of Evil (but basically every album) BFMV - The Poison Pearl Jam - Ten Faith no more - The Real Thing Alice In Chains - Dirt Between Decisions - Mindless Soundgarden - Superunknown And I'd actually love to put one by As I lay dying, but I feel like all my favourite tracks are just completely spread over the different albums.

[@Jarlaxle_Baenre]

Huge props for mentioning Bloodsimple bro. They were insanely underrated. And I love every Korn album. They’ve been my favorite band for 20+ years. Issues is the one I’d have to pick, but you can’t go wrong.

[@EldritchPilgrim]

@@Jarlaxle_Baenre yeah the guy from Bloodsimple had such a unique voice. It's a shame they only made the two albums.

[@Jarlaxle_Baenre]

@@EldritchPilgrim his cleans and screams were unique as hell. I do know that they broke up out of protest because they were stuck in a shit contract from a shit label. What If I Lost, Straight Hate, and Sell Me Out stay in my playlists to this day.

[@o0Donuts0o]

Creed’s Human Clay album is seriously hated for no reason. Top to bottom every track is great. Very few albums can claim that.

[@SteamPaladin]

well there's one good reason and that reason is scott stapp

[@lewisgrant7622]

It’s hated because Scott stapp is an ***hole

[@Aarthurnax]

Linkin Park was of course my gateway band, but the album that opened those gates fully was Soulfly’s debut album. It was the album that made me learn to growl, because of how good Max Cavalera’s growls sounded. I discovered them when I was 11 or 12 and I went to Denmark with my grandparents as we were invited by my uncle. He borrowed me a discman and let me check out his cds collection. Then I found this black jewel box with iconic tribal that I already knew, because my uncle has it tattooed (and so have I now) on his arm. To be fair, this album and RATM compilation CD were on constant replay through whole 2 weeks I was in there. Been a fan of Max Cavalera ever since

[@deathbat93rn]

Waking the Fallen by Avenged Sevenfold is what got me into harsh vocals so that’s an album that will always slap and has a special place in my life.

[@Preston_McKnight]

Me too! Sounding the seventh trumpet as well!!

[@eugenemetayhas]

This album absolutely still slaps, and it's still my favorite A7X album of all time.

[@brandongrayson456]

[@reedhj]

Literally Phobia by Breaking Benjamin, Iowa by Slipknot, Homesick by ADTR, The Cleansing by Suicide Silence, Three Cheers by MCR, Korn Self-Titled, Toxicity by SOAD still slaps to this day.

[@patrickburton1401]

Alter Bridge’s first album is so good. I love Mark Tremonti as a guitarist.

[@kylehegedus5498]

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@DarkAnubis]

Man Sum 41’s “Chuck” and “Does this look infected?” records are perfect. Killer punk, heavy

[@Aarthurnax]

If I’m not mistaken, Chuck was their first album that was dangerously close to thrash metal. Or I’m delusional and I can’t tell difference between thrash and heavy. Correct me if I’m wrong

[@DarkAnubis]

@@Aarthurnax Yeah it’s very heavy compared to their previous records. They had already started going that direction with DTLI. I love Chuck it’s hard to pick between that and DTLI. I think I lean more towards Chuck bc there’s no misses where as DTLI have 1 or 2 songs that are not bad, just not a fan of.

[@wheelsofmercury]

Chuck is an incredible record!

[@CapnRiggs2k5]

"The Bitter End" on Chuck blew my mind. I just randomly came across it one day and was like "This is Sum-41?? Goddamn that's heavy!"

[@Revelation22_5]

Human clay was awesome. Tremonti is just a wall of sound. Listening to them live it’s hard to believe he is the only guitarist up there.

[@rogueparadox5447]

City of Evil- Avenged Sevenfold defined my childhood Nightmare- Avenged Sevenfold is my favorite album of all time A Beautiful Lie- 30 Seconds to Mars the last good thing the band ever released, a lot of songs on that album still slap hard All Hope is Gone- Slipknot Tell me Sulfur, Gematria, and Psychosocial still don't slap

[@westonterry8164]

💯

[@dunchayton86]

Great shouts

[@beyondtheradio]

Beautiful Lie is sooooooooooo fucking good. Best album they ever did. So glad I saw them live during the 2010s when they didn't get awful yet.

[@victorzambrano4136]

All Hope Is Gone most underrated tracks are Wherein Lies Continue, This Cold Black, and the Alice In Chains sounding Gehenna!

[@robertmccann5958]

Toxicity, Infiltrate-Destroy-Rebuild, L.D. 50, Dying is Your Latest Fashion, and The Black Parade. In no particular order, all changed my life at some point.

[@lukehunker6429]

Dying is Your Latest Fashion is still a master piece

[@gibsm7968]

honestly? i discovered disturbed when i was about 10, starting with stricken from ten thousand fists. thought it was the dopest shit ever, and to this day is one of the few bands where i can listen to a majority of a given record and genuinely like the songs. i literally lost my shit when they came off of their hiatus when i was 16.

[@zezimaownz432]

I still listen to their indestructible album today. It's so good

[@ajfite1277]

I’m glad other people are loving disturbed as much as me

[@manfredmar]

10.000 fists is an incredible record imo

[@-Jake-]

I was looking for the Disturbed comment! They were my childhood

[@HeavyMetalGamer78]

Disturbed and Godsmack are what got me in to music as a kid. The Indestructible album and basically all of the early Godsmack discography (up to Faceless) were what I grew up with and they were my first concerts I went to in middle school

[@aamiw99]

The top one for me has to be 'Wish Upon A Blackstar' by Celldweller. It was the first full rock/metal album I heard, and it was a gateway to everything else I listen to. What's great is that the album is so diverse that it didn't only send me down one rabbit hole in terms of sub-genres. It made me be able to appreciate a lot of sides to rock and metal.

[@KONSACZ]

Man, Klayton is super fucking good, it's mind blowing for me that he is in his middle fifties right now, and still creating banger after banger. He have his own label, and he promote a lot of electronic rock producers. Great and talented person.

[@cheefukeefu]

Celldweller is the shit, definitely one of the first metal musicians i got really into

[@jamiesanders80]

Finding beauty in negative spaces by Seether . Hands down still slaps.

[@brandonsnyder4770]

I had trouble picking Disclaimer over that one for my own list. It's a tie for me honestly between Disclaimer, Karma and Effect and Finding Beauty. All three albums are so good and effectively established Seether's legacy

[@dudewhy6953]

Seether in general still slaps. Got to see them live for the second time a couple years back and when I tell you it was probably one of the best performances I’ve ever seen, I’m not kidding.

[@kylermillsap8068]

Cage the Elephant’s debut was my childhood alternative experience. It was like the one childhood album for me that was my first great rock type of experience.

[@jaredlyons3940]

My top albums from back then that still slap. 1. Bullet- The Poison 2. Relient K- 2 lefts don't make a right...but 3 do 3. Atreyu- the curse 4. In Flames- Soundtrack to your Escape 5. Three Days Grace- self title I was spinning the poison the other day and I always gravitate back to all 5 of these albums when I am chilling or driving

[@bullsheets6151]

The Way of the Fist is THE album that got me into metal. I also gotta say that Weathered by Creed is one of the best albums I’ve ever heard, and I believe it is leagues better than Human Clay. It’s a whole experience front to back.

[@elijahechicagobearsboyd5734]

Weathered good?? The album that chants sex and ends with a fucking lullaby??

[@bullsheets6151]

@@elijahechicagobearsboyd5734 I will say it’s not perfect. I’m not a fan of the lullaby but like…. Who’s Got My Back, Bullets, Stand Here With Me, Freedom Fighter, Weathered, One Last Breath, My Sacrifice… all great songs. This is also my opinion so, there’s that.

[@bullsheets6151]

@@elijahechicagobearsboyd5734 “Leagues better” was also a bit of an exaggeration I’ll admit. But I do have strong feelings toward it. It’s been awhile since I’ve listened to Human Clay but from what I could remember it all kind of sounded the same. Not that that’s a bad thing, but for me it isn’t the same experience as Weathered because of that.

[@BagelGasai]

My top albums from when I was still in school were: One X- Three Days Grace Human Clay- Creed Awake- Skillet Where Do We Go From Here- Pillar American Soldier- Queensrÿche

[@H.E.M.]

The album that has stuck with me since I got into metal as a teen is There is Hell believe me I seen it, There is a Heaven let’s keep it a secret. Still goes hard, and is severely underrated and overshadowed by Sempiternal.

Suicide season is still my favorite album

[@speedpants8915]

Human Clay still goes hard.

[@wheelsofmercury]

I see "Stand Up and Scream", I click on it. STILL A FREAKING BANGER OF A RECORD AFTER ALL THESE YEARS LATER! Also, growing up in Canada, I heard 3DG and SUM 41 all the time on the radio as a kid, so those bands have some MAJOR nostalgia for me. Another album that was huge for me at that time was Crisis by Alexisonfire. They were from my hometown and it was so cool seeing such a local band get so big.

[@nickb4344]

From Canada also, I thought the same thing haha. Cancer Bats too, I remember seeing the French Immersion video on Much Music and was instantly hooked

[@kellsinpdx]

Yay another one of these! Hope you're well!

[@psstimbatman6646]

Asking Alexandrias "Stand up and Scream" is just top tier shit. This was my childhood😂

[@lupomikti]

I'm a little late, but I can't leave without mentioning that Messengers by August Burns Red was one of the biggest albums leading me to get into metal. Not the first or even that early as I only found ABR when they released Leveler, but man, "Composure" so quickly became one of my most played tracks, and I still put that whole album on all the time now. I even saw them for the Messengers 10 yr anniversary tour, best concert I've been to

[@Kamerovz]

As someone who lives in Sydney, (Australia) , Infinite Death Ep was a riot and whenever they play Sydney people always yell for them to play Whore to a Chainsaw.

[@lukebramer3283]

Y’all, I grew up a punk kid. So much Green Day in my house all the time, but when I was 15 I heard Rust in Peace by Megadeth and immediately knew I would be a metal head forever. I heard that intro riff to Holy Wars and was a changed man. I still love Green Day, but Rust in Peace is easily the most important record of my life. Dave is the reason I play guitar the way I do, and it’s my favorite metal record to this day. Just pure thrash amazingness front to back

[@absolutelyuselessman3803]

Honestly Waking The Fallen has to be one of the best early metalcore albums that got me into Metal as a whole

Human Clay by Creed is a gem of an album. Fun fact. What if was actually used for Scream 2 soundtrack with a music video with Dewey (David Arquette) from the franchise.

[@BertiLux]

That's how I first heard about Creed here in germany, they would show the video on MTV and VIVA. Otherwise I don't think I would have heard of them until the memes took off on the internet years later because Creed was never that widely known in germany (I think). What if still slaps though.

[@Mayhemzz]

FFDP's first album was definitely one of my favourites for awhile although I discovered it after high school. My high school soundtrack was mostly Disturbed, Trivium, Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth. Don't hate, Nymphetamine is a sick album. Also, this could and should be a weekly series or something. So fun to reminisce like this. DUUDE One-X is the album my Wife and I put on for road trips now. It's the only album we both know back to front. Good shit on that one.

Human clay by creed is my favorite album of all time, Creed is the band that got me into rock and therefore into metal. The 3 album's that stick out for me growing up was human clay, oceans between us by AILD and away from the sun by 3 doors down.

[@Seekaywastaken]

Dug some out of my CD case, here's a few that I listened to on top of Jared's mentions: Sonic Firestorm by Dragonforce Train of Thought by Dream Theater The Poison by Bullet for My Valentine Getting Away with Murder by Papa Roach Meteora by Linkin Park Fallen by Evanescence Volume 3 The Subliminal Verses by Slipknot Believe by Disturbed And Love Said No: The Greatest Hits by H.I.M. And some classics like Blizzard of Ozz by Ozzy Osbourne and Dirt from Alice in Chains that I still love. I'm sure there's more but they aren't coming to me right now.

[@mindtoxinxc]

Lots of good stuff on the list! Most of my other favs were already mentioned in a comment, except for The Greyest of Blue Skies by Finger Eleven

[@Flo-tm2wm]

I must say that "human clay" has influenced my musical taste quite a bit. And Jared is right! Every song on the album does not disappoint at all. Especially the sound of Mark's signature guitar and his guitar playing in general. Frontman Scott Stapp grew up in a strict Christian home,which he elaborated on in "Torn" and "My own prison" on the eponymous debut album. You can't deny that Christian content is present in a few songs, especially the song "Faceless man" suggests a lot. But the song has been interpreted differently by both Christians and a more radical form of Christianity. Some say, with the faceless man Jesus was meant and the radical group again sees in it the devil. Nevertheless, as I have already mentioned, "human clay" is a damn cool album!

[@israeljimenez5816]

Yeah, What If is a total jam!

[@uncle_thulhu]

All of the first five albums I ever paid money for would all fit into this category: Metallica - Master of Puppets Anthrax - Persistence of Time Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power Scatterbrain - Here Comes Trouble😂 Seriously though, Scatterbrain may have been a joke band, but they were seriously talented.

Left one out - Ministry - Land of Rape and Honey.

[@theoneandonlylordfarquaad3361]

Loved Breaking Benjamin when I was 11-16. I also loved Chevelle, but Deftones is my all time favorite band because I grew up with them. Other classics I can think of are L.D. 50 by Mudvayne, Slipknot’s first two albums, Wisconsin Death Trip by Static-X, and there’s a ton others

Dude. Check out Empire Theory. Top 10 album for me.

[@dcsolina]

Have you listened to any of their instrumental stuff? Basically a completely different band musically, but it is SO GOOD!

[@014matt]

I heard that One-X was written by Adam Gontier (the former singer of 3DG) while he was in rehab. It's why all the songs are about drugs, drug abuse, getting sober, and the strain that addiction has on your relationships. It's why he sings it so passionately, cuz he lived all of it. For me, One-X is def on the list, but so are Billy Talent 1 and 2.

Disclaimer II from Seether is still a phenomenal album.

At the risk of sounding cliche, discovering Metallica for the first time changed me. I used to be a rap kid in junior high, but I always had a bit of passing interest in guitar because my dad played guitar in church and as a side gig. Hearing Master Of Puppets for the first time made me realize that deep down, I was a metalhead, and to this day, Master of Puppets is still my all time favorite album. Other gems from my metal formative years include: Skepsis - Through The Eyes Of The Dead Cosmogenesis - Obscura Inhuman Rampage - DragonForce Avenged Sevenfold’s self-titled album Indestructible - Disturbed ObZen - Meshuggah Zero Order Phase - Jeff Loomis Dead Heart In A Dead World, This Godless Endeavor and Enemies Of Reality - Nevermore Still slaps to this day 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

I feel like every self respecting metalhead goes through a Metallica phase 😂😂

[@HeavyMetalGamer78]

I don't think there will ever be a time that Cosmogenesis doesn't slap. That is such a good album

Yooo, thank you for defending Creed, Jared! Mark is the reason I got into Hard Rock and Metal. His guitar playing in Creed, although limited by the style they were going for, was still great. He's definitely the main reason I go back to Creed from time to time.
