I don't think they've ever put out one Bad album and I own all of them. Great ranking as always🤘

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Yeah well, They kinda got lost there for a while I think, they were still good songwriters but that alternative rock/metal sound of some of their records I could have done without. I'm glad that they've returned to a more metal sound over the last couple of records. Cheers! 🤘

[@daggy174]

Great band! Cuatro is how the Black Album should have sounded.

[@rbmossx1432]

No Place For Disgrace is one of my all-time favourite albums. I don’t hear many people say that over the years. I think it’s a thrash metal classic personally.

I thank you, mr Ruthless for introducing me ( i think it was your 1986- ten-best-ranking video) to D.f.t.D. album. It is fantastic! I think it is one of the best debut albums ever, maybe the best. You are right, it has no fillers. Every song is a killer!

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Yeah, it's an amazing album. One of the absolute best. 🥂

[@neugey]

I have a soft spot for Cuatro because I got that CD for free by accident through Columbia House and that's how I discovered the band! Double Zero and Secret Square are probably my favorite tracks.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

good stuff. Cheers!

Haha i love Cuatro too and not because i got it for free by accident :D, i bought it with pure evil intentions and its a great album

i must admit i haven’t heard a lot of their middle discography, but the last few have all been really solid and doomsday for the deceiver is easily a top 20 thrash album of all time. such an underrated band 🤘🏽

Interesting you mentioned Soundgarden during the Drift album, because Chris Cornell actually has writing credits on Cuatro. Anyway, my favorites from each of those albums, respectively, are Smoked Out and Wading Through the Darkness.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Yeah, one song there if I don't remember it wrong. Drift was like the best grunge album ever made. haha Cheers!

[@no_problem8023]

Just by Jason's contributions to Flotsam and Jetsam, it's such a shame Metallica were too emotionally stunted/immature to let Jason write more.

[@mikestanislaus1107]

Don't have a ranking as I don't own all of their albums, but just like alot of the bands in my collection, my first is usually my favorite. In F&J, for me it's Cuatro. I love the dynamics on it, blending brutal speed and heaviness with the softer, quirkier bits, also kinda cozying up to grunge with a co-write with Chris Cornell (interesting collaboration). Just a great album in my opinion.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Cheers!

[@foxedrey622]

I have the albums "Cuatro" and "Drift". I got them in the 90's. They did have to take a slight detour, like many others, to survive the grunge onslaught. I looked into buying "No Place For Disgrace", but all I can seem to find is the re-recorded issue. I'll have to look harder to find those first three albums with their original recordings. Thanks for the video, Ruthless!

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

[@godetonter4764]

Playing marbles with Yahweh . From the one of the song descriptions of the album When the Storm Comes Down. Even though I am not crazy about When the Storm Comes Down, it remains the only Flotsam and Jetsam that I have ever bought new. I remember that other than Annihilator it was the only album that I have ever seen where not only was a lyric sheet included, but also contained little sections above each song title that sort of gave a history and description to what inspired the songs. I have always had a hard time finding a copy of No Place for Disgrace. Friends would record it for me through the years. Even though overall I would consider both Doomsday For the Deceiver and When the Storm Comes Down to be Heavier than No Place For Disgrace in different ways. I think that NE Terror is definitely not only the Heaviest Flotsam and Jetsam song, but also among the Heaviest songs of all time . It's been years since I've heard When the Storm Comes Down maybe I should listen to it again, I just found a CD of Doomsday For the Deceiver at a Pawn shop last year, it was better than I remember it being. Love Eric AK's Halford style screams , but overall Doomsday is lacking a good mid tempo song. Most of the album is fast and faster

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

I don't need no mid-tempo songs, there are some melodic songs on doomsday though, but damn it's a fine album. Cheers!

[@godetonter4764]

@@RuthlessMetalYT I like the debut a lot, I just don't quite enjoy it as much as No Place for Disgrace. I thought that Flotsam and Jetsam should have been huge on the strength of their first 2 albums. I just wish that they would have continued on the same musical path. Probably my all time favorite Thrash Metal band. I prefer NWOBHM style Traditional Metal, but Flotsam and Jetsam, and the Forbidden debut have enough of those elements to enjoy them as much as Axe Witch, Silver Mountain, Gotham City and Saxon. I also like Kreator, Sodom, early Slayer, Exodus and Dark Angel, but I just have to be in the mood for that style .

[@daveyboyd784]

"Suffer the masses" will always remind me of those last few years spent going to high school way waaaaaaaaay back in the day, lol. Listening to that song gives me a nostalgic vibe every time, it was the end of a truly incredible era as the 80's were coming to a close. The main riff on that track was so fckn HEAVY and I absolutely loved it... couldn't get enough. You could make it even heavier with the right sound system, listening to that one on a car stereo really brought out the low-end without sacrificing the crisp tones on the other side of the spectrum. We've got different tastes when it comes to mixing falsetto with thrash though, it just doesn't seem to mesh that well for me. It definitely has its place, but I've never cared much for falsetto vocals on a thrash track. That style is best suited for the King himself in my humble opinion... King Diamond will always wear that crown in my mind. Great video brother, keep 'em coming! 🤘🏻☠️🤘🏻

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Same here. It was one of the first Flotsam songs I heard. Cheers! 🤘🏻

[@michaelsantangelo7997]

Nice video. Doomsday is great, but no place is my favorite, maybe because I heard it first. I saw them live in Boston when they were supporting High. Great show. I haven't heard most of their 90's stuff, but I thought High was ok. Erik AK is awesome and very underrated. I never knew they went back to their thrash sound. I'm going to check out those more recent albums. One thing though......I did not like that re-recording of No Place for Disgrace. I'm not sure what the point of that was. It was just slower and Erik didn't really hit and sustain the high notes. \m/

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Yeah the nineties stuff had a lot of ups and downs, check out cuatro if you can handle some melody. Yeah, re-recordings should be banned because it always turn out sounding worse than the original. Cheers! 🤘🏻

[@faultier3215]

Hey Man, I really like your taste in thrash and I was wondering if you could make a Video about the best Thrash records released after 2000? Maybe a Top 20, or a Top 10 by the Oldschool Bands and a Top 10 by Bands of the new wave of thrash... I mean, there are not many "great" records that come to my mind, M-16 was pretty good, Power Trips "Nightmare Logic" is great and I liked "The Evolution of Chaos" by Heathen.... something along those lines. And another question, have you heard of Teutonic Thrashers "Pessimist" ? My friend is the guitarist there, good old War-themed teutonic thrash.. Check out the Song "Landsknecht"

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

We'll see, I mostly listen to older thrash, not that interested in newer bands unfortunately. ;) Cheers!

Commenting as I'm watching, I'm VERY excited to check this video out. Flot is a band that has always been at the wrong place at the wrong time in terms of musical styles but they have a lot of absolutely incredible albums. Drift, to me, is the best groove metal album there is!

@@danaeloucaidou4991 nah, doomsday is just so energetic, I love it. :D

I can't argue with #1 and #2 as they're the only F&J albums that I own.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

Yeah those are the best for sure, but the three latest are really good. Cheers!

What about RAZOR ? Would be great to hear Your opinion on this alltime underdogs from Canada.

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

I've definitely thought of it, but we'll see. I'll probably lay a bit low during the summer. Cheers!

Bought "No Place" as soon as it came out and found the title track to be a very solid and memorable effort, but for whatever reason I never followed them since that time and barely made it through the rest of the album. I need to connect with a voice and Chuck Billy or Tom Araya just worked better for aggressive thrash

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

yeah he is just another type of vocalist, but I prefer Eric AK to most thrash vocalists. hehe Cheers!

[@fzr1000981]

@@RuthlessMetalYT idea for your next video: top 5 vocalists in thrash, I don't think there are 10!

The only album I didn't really like was Unnatural Selection

I Am The Weapon just came out not too long ago

[@RuthlessMetalYT]

yes sir, haven't really checked it out yet. grew a bit tired of flotsam even if they are one of my favourites or were.

[@Rage-of-War]

Drift is the best album period!!!

[@Rage-of-War]

I guess, because I have been a fan from day one, All of the albums hit at a specific time in my life and Erik always speaks to me personally.

Cheers!

Doomsday one of best thrash metal album of all times.They never got close to the quality of this album again
