I like them both for their time but Roots has a fuller sound.

[@AlanScott-m8k]

35:36 I disagree that SOAD'S debut is better than Toxicity. The only song that comes close to being filler on Toxicity is Jet Pilot while the Self Titled Album gets weaker past the halfway point with tracks like Peephole and CUBErt. I do love how intense and aggressive the Self Titled album is though.

[@dominiquechenard2220]

peephole is a classic, i love that song. I also prefer the self titled due to its rawness, but can see the argument for toxicity.

As someone else said, what hype? I've never heard someone say it was a great record. I've heard it's not bad, or it's decent, but I've never heard someone say it's great. I think it's more than good, but less than great.

I'm still surprised people shit on Domination, that's in my top 5 Morbid Angel albums for sure, probably even top 3.

[@strongbad666]

Agreed that Napalm Death post 'The Code is Red...Long Live the Code' (2005) have just been getting better and better. 'Smear Campaign' is equally as good with the song writing becoming more complex and interesting. 'Apex Predator...Easy Meat' (2015) was flawless and fun to listen to while 2020's 'Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeat' was amazing in its surfing of metal sub-genres and song writing. It had slow tempo, mid-tempo, and fast tempo ND songs. Damn, even the outtakes album from 2022 was flawless in its execution and delivery (that song with the female backing vocals was really quite fun to listen to.)

[@doomguyrox1156]

One album I’d consider overrated is Savatage’s Hall of The Mountain King. It’s great, but it’s not as perfect as people make it out to be and it’s a shame that this is the one I see most people talk about. I just finished their discography recently and personally found Gutter Ballet the much superior record. They up the prog on that one and I feel like the guitar player shines a lot more throughout that record as well as Edge of Thorns. Their final record Poets and Madmen I think gets severely overlooked too. It doesn’t have Criss due to him passing a little after Edge of Thorns, but the writing is still fantastic as the 2 i mentioned and it’s even darker in tone too. One band I don’t see get mentioned enough too whenever Savatage is being discussed is the Helstar. I feel like people “in the know” know how great their mid to late 80s material are, but I don’t see Remnants of War, A Distant Thunder, or Nosferatu get mentioned nearly as much as they should since the guitar playing is incredible and super melodic/neoclassical on those 3.

[@superunknown2812]

Gutter Ballet is always my go too when I want too listen too Savatage or Power of the Night

Looks like Poets And Madmen might not be their final album. The working title for the new album is Curtain Call.

Individual Thought Patterns is the best Death album...there...I said it

[@strongbad666]

Yeah, for me it is a three-way tie for the best Death album: 'Leprosy', 'Individual Thought Patterns', and 'The Sound of Perserverance' (which only happened because Nuclear Blast required them to record it before recording a Control Denied album).

[@michaelmanno6166]

I understand your perspective because I assume you're younger and you probably weren't around when these older albums came out. But, for a lot of these older releases from Mayhem, Morbid Angel and Venom, they were breaking new ground and doing things that hadn't been done yet. As cliche as it sounds, you had to be there to understand. There wasn't the abundance of extreme metal like there is now. It was a new thing. If you ask me, Venom was the band that started it all, maybe even Hellhammer too. They were not good musicians, and their stuff was really sloppy. But, they were pushing the boundaries. What they did spawned thrash, death and black metal. Sometimes, an album is revered because it started a new genre rather than the quality of its material.

[@MetalTrenches]

I understand all of that. Even so, I think it is possible for an album to be greatly important and influential while becoming overrated over time

[@Fallen-el7lp]

100%. It is quite easy to not fully grasp what many of these albums did upon release. To each their own though. You like what you like.

[@jameshausler5259]

I never cared for ROOTS. Beneath the Remains is more my style. Reign in Blood sounds better, but Seasons is a better album content wise.

[@brandonthomas6722]

Ironbound by Overkill gets a lot of love and I don’t get it. It’s a pretty consistently solid album but I don’t think there’s much that really stands out, and “The Goal Is Your Soul” is full of riffs borrowed from Judas Priest, Metallica and Annihilator. The Grinding Wheel and Immortalis are my favorites of the modern Overkill albums.

[@electric-toadstool]

Do you find that the classics (Master of Puppets,Reign in Blood,etc) you once enjoyed so much just seem so...."meh" these days? Maybe it's just the fact that I'm middle-aged but everytime I go back to stuff I used to love,I just can't get into as much anymore. Anyhow,lol,how about a show on Underated Albums?

[@jameshausler5259]

It's hard when those albums also have a lot more to compete with after all of these years. Those were my two favorites along with Rust in Peace back in my teenage years.

[@gummo133]

Individual Thought Patterns over Human? Must be Steve Di Giorgio's mom behind that mask.

[@MetalTrenches]

You got me

[@TheCuttingBureau]

By the way, Steve plays on both albums. He also is famous (or infamous?) for his potato salad. He published his recipe in a couple of culinary journals, one of which was reviewed by the Catholic church -- the recipe is now a permanent item on the menu of the Vatican. So the next time you eat potato salad at the Vatican, that will most likely be Steve's recipe.

[@ziggylamb]

@@gummo133 ITP over everything

[@strongbad666]

Well, while Sadus was on the 'Swallowed in Black' tour in Europe, they gave Scott Burns a call from a UK airport and shit talked him for Steve being buried on 'Human'. He apparently was so pissed about those conversations that he just boosted Steve DiGiorgio's bass on 'Individual Thought Patterns' so much that it made the album what it is. The remaster is a step down from the original.

[@paulmelgary6001]

Well he played on both

I can't even remember the last time I listened to the self-titled all the way through. I listened to Toxicity a few days ago. I think it's earned its reputation.

an Album i wanted to be in here is Blackwater Park from Opeth. Yes, i know, it is a amazing album overall, but people say its one of the best in DM... And...no, it is not (imo) on the top 10 of death metal for me... But its that thing: power to you if you like it, for me though, i would consider My Arms, Your Hearse as Opeth's best album and also as one of the best DM albums ever (it places somewhere at 15th to 10th place for me if i did a top 50 of mine most fav metal albums ever). edit: ngl, i slightly died inside when you Trenches said that Sunbather is overrated (nothing against finding it overrated, power to you Trenches, you can hate anything and love anything the way you want, and even with that opinion, i'm not gonna hate on you just because you hate 1 album that i love, and honestly, i find amusing of seeing people with opinion's contrary to mine cuz it gives me a interesting variety than just loving everything that is good, bc if everyone loved all good albums, world definetly would be really damn boring).

Deliverence is still my favorite Opeth album, Still Life is good, but it didn't grab me as much. Blackwater is a close second, but mostly due to Dirge for November.

Exhorder - Slaughter In The Vatican is rated just fine imo. I don't think it's overrated or underrated. To each their own though. Domination is in my top 5 Morbid Angel albums but no way would I say it's Morbid Angel's best album. Altars Of Madness, Blessed Are The Sick, Covenant and Formulas Fatal To The Flesh I rate over it.

Most overrated albums of all time: Slayer 'Reign in Blood' (Kreator and Dark Angel did better albums in that style that same year...and longer in length); Megadeth 'Peace Sells...And Who's Buying?' (terrible production, easily Randy Burns' worst production, and it doesn't hold a candle to 'Killing is My Business...and Business is Good!' especially when the right mix of the album came out in 2018) ; Death's 'Human' and 'Symbolic' ('Spiritual Healing' and 'Individual Though Patterns' are better in musicianship and listenability); Morbid Angel 'Altars of Madness' and 'Domination' (AOM is a great album [I still have my original LP with the sticker "the ultimate death metal album!""...uh, no], but it is overrated while the Terrorizer album is underrated and 'Domination' just sucks...I'd rather listen to Sinister's 'Hate' which is faster, more accessible, and musically more complex as an album. Erik Rutan was a nice touch but 'Domination' is way, way overrated); Suffocation's 'Effigy of the Forgotten' (yeah, it is a classic but way overmentioned while bands like Revenant, Gorefest, Ripping Corpse, Benediction and Sinister languished in the background while receiving zero play); Napalm Death's 'Scum' and 'Enslavement to Obliteration' (both overrated and they only became a good band when the 'Mentally Murdered' EP was released [I still have my original copy] and there was the roaring double bass drums and much, much better song writing and Bill Steer was still in the band); Metallica 'Kill 'Em All' (you could listen to Exciter, Anvil and a whole host of post-NWOBHM bands to get a better formulation of the same metal); Carcass 'Heartwork' and 'Reek of Putrefaction' (yes, fantastic album, but there were many other bands doing progressive metal before they came along on record and ROP is just terrible in every way); Celtic Frost 'Morbid Tales' (I'm tired of hearing of this album every time I talk about avant-garde metal. TMT is a better produced more accessible album but is also overrated. I probably think 'Vanity/Nemesis' (1989) is my favorite CF album. I agree that 'Monotheist' is heavy as fuck and is a good album. I watched them open for Type O Negative in 2006 back when Martain Ain was still alive. Fun times); Bolt Thrower 'Warmaster' (1991; okay, it is good but the latter half of the album lags like no other, it isn't 'For Victory' [flawless] or 'Realm of Chaos' and 'Those Once Loyal' where it feels like they know what they are doing.) Good list as always dude! Thanks for the recommendation on Gigan. I love it all (their entire discography).

[@strongbad666]

I'm a huge Morbid Angel fan (I think the first two albums are flawless...with the first still being overrated) but I saw them on the 40th anniversary tour (since they've been around in some formation since 1983), and I wanted my money back afterwards that is how bad it was (and it was Trey's birthday that night). Trey is obviously a drunk who cannot separate his craft from his alcoholism and he didn't play the songs right, the sound was terrible, the setlist was awful (only one song from the first three albums? Huh?), and every song sounded the same. I'm tired of the legacy bands when the up and comers in the underground are just more fun to watch (Gorod, Summoning the Lich, Abysmal Dawn, etc. etc.)

[@alexanderivanov8850]

Clayman (In Flames): I don't see that this is an overhyped record. Among the listeners of In Flames this one doesn't rank high, but for me it's one of their best on the same leves as The Jester Race or Whoracle. But compared to Colony I thik this is the better record. The concept of harsh and clean vocals is better executed on Clayman. Hatebreeder (COB): Yes, Alexi's voice is not the best, but on "Are You Dead Yet?" his weak and distorted vocals sounds worse. The sound is also less melodic and more thrash (which is an adjustment to the american listening habits and is therefore more suitable for the american market). I like this record but "Follow the Reaper" is better executed.

See on Magma v Fortitude, I'm the opposite. Into The Storm is the filliest filler song to ever fill, Grind is two halves of two good songs that *do not* fit together, Hold On has some of Gojira's cringest lyrics, and any song that I can compare 1 to 1 between the two albums in any way (i.e. Sphinx and Only Pain), most of the time I prefer the Magma one. And the emotional weight of Magma is just way heavier, even if the album isn't. Global Warming and Low Lands are the only two Gojira songs to ever bring me to tears. Now, that said, I still quite like Fortitude, even if I have problems. If we wanna talk about overrated Gojira albums, L'enfant Sauvage is right there. It's very clear looking back as a relatively new fan (discovered the band in Feb. 2023) that LFS is the band in a transitional period between the prog and death stuff of TWOAF and back and the more melodic rock and groove stuff on Magma and Fortitude, sits L'enfant Sauvage, who doesn't do either as well as anything that came before or after, and any song on that record can easily be compared to a different song in their discography that did it way better.

[@KLBoringBand]

Powerslave and Bonded by Blood as overrated are INSANE to me. 😂

[@SuperStrik9]

Bonded By Blood is rated fine imo. It's not overrated or underrated. Definite Thrash classic and my favorite Exodus album.

[@headspace2003]

Powerslave is insanely inconsistent. If they had released that as an EP., with aces, midnight, slave & mariner, it would be one of the greatest records ever released

[@MetalTrenches]

Were you just skipping through? I gave Powerslave as better ALTERNATIVE to the album I said was overrated.

[@KLBoringBand]

@ no, I was responding to the fans suggesting Powerslave was overrated in the first section-before you go into your top 5.

[@deadguy29]

Pretty much disagreeing with all your "overrated album" choices, but hey, an opinion is like an a$$hole, everyone has one and they usually stink.

[@nick-r8o8w]

I will still never agree with Vol. 3 being the most overrated. Imo, it's the most underrated, especially if you ignore Before I forget (which I think is their most overrated song) or Duality. I can agree with the production not being that great but I've grown to like it

[@MetalTrenches]

Those sales numbers could never allow it to be considered underrated

[@Dutchswish]

Just bought tickets to go see sfu. So excited 😂

[@JunkYardCardGuy]

Dream Theater's Awake album

[@rusbell2981]

Overrated? I don't hear a ton of people saying that it's overrated, I think in their discography Images and Words is their most overrated.

[@JunkYardCardGuy]

@rusbell2981 Awake has nice tracks, but stuff like Silent Man, Lifting Shadows, Space-Dye Vest really just kill it for me...

[@rusbell2981]

@@JunkYardCardGuy that's fair, I'm a huge dt fan and Awake isn't one of my favorites. Scenes from a Memory and six degrees are probably my favorites

[@EvilDeadthe2nd]

Images and words is perfection for me. The only Thing i dont like are the fade outs because i dont want the song ends. Awake is really good but i am not the biggest fan of space dye vest but it has one of the best Opener.

[@kevinborg5930]

i agreed about DOMINATION but when i saw HUMAN i ran away from this video

[@MetalTrenches]

lol oh no, a disagreement. How awful… no wonder politics is cooked.

[@BigBl0ck-r9y]

And justic for all is boring with the 2 long songs with out pay of,

[@lawrencefine5020]

How do you piss off any Metal fan? Tell them that your favorite albums aren't as good as you think. It's one person's opinion. And yes, you are wrong. Blessed Are The Sick is Morbid Angel's best album and Sepultura's Beneath The Remains IS Sepultura's best album. Opinions are like bungholes..yadda yadda. And music is always subjective and never objective. Sorry.

[@MetalTrenches]

I agree with all the points stated here and said as much in the video. It is all subjective.

[@richjnev70]

You've mentioned Six Feet Under Haunted twice in this video. it must have been a traumatic experience, I think you need some counselling.

[@MetalTrenches]

Indeed

[@jasoncallan]

I think the black album from Metallica is the most overrated metal album. They turned their backs on their old fans to please the nerds who never liked their music.

[@CoreyArsenault-c8t]

The black album is the best metallica album every song but the last one is a 10

[@Dutchswish]

@@CoreyArsenault-c8tI’ve always said its a great album, but a terrible Metallica album

[@framemain891]

"Don't Tread on Me" is embarrassing.

[@CoreyArsenault-c8t]

@framemain891 i love that song great libertarianism anthem

[@MuRpHyKn0t]

I thought The Black Album was Metallica trying a blues metal album. Load was them turning their backs on the fans to make the same alternative rock that was already being done better at that time. It came off as bandwagon jumping to me.

[@father042]

Did you mention Haunted by Six Feet Under twice? lol

[@lobstarooo]

Just checking if I wasn't going crazy but yeah he did indeed.

[@MetalTrenches]

Yes I did lol. I considered editing it out… but hell I do dislike SFU that much

[@unclebobboomergames]

For me...overrated. now some are albums id consider bad. Others are still great just not the hype. Pantera Vulgar Display Of Power Iron Maiden The Number Of The Beast In Flames Clayman Children Of Bodom Hate Crew Deathroll Slipknot Iowa Didnt add The Black Album cuz thats kinda cheating. We all know.

[@timgonzales2891]

I dont think de mysteriis is overrated. I think mayhem post de mysteriis is seriously not good though.

[@richardmosesson5191]

Listen again to "Ordo Ad Chao", one of the most underrated albums of the first decade of this century.

[@trenaceandblackmetal5621]

Mysteriis is the only Mayhem album I like

[@figu6ka379]

Morbid Angel is my favorite band and im so tired of AoM meatriding, its far from their peak

[@2MuchMajinBuuty]

Black album is the most overrated metal album I can think of. Some songs are decent but the record as a whole is pretty wack imo.

[@personavisceration371]

Many of these are my favorites from these artists 🤯

[@imawesomeyourenot]

PT1: Mayhem: Totally agree. Decent album, theres are much better during that time. MA-Altars- Its a great album, but personally in my opinion Covenant is their best. Domination is above average, but not THAT great. Sepultura- Never been a huge fan other than Chaos. ...Roots is good, but...again not THAT great. Dillinger- Never liked them so ... Death- Took me a long time to actually get into this album, but it grew on me quite well. I def wouldnt call it overrated. Maiden- eh, not my thing. Exodus- never got into them. Opeth- Meh, a few good songs here and there. Toxicity-great album Master of Puppets- Its pretty much perfect. Lamb of god- a few great songs, never got into them much. In Flames- Hard to consider any of them overrated. They set the standard. Deafheaven- lol nah. Bathory- wasnt my thing years ago, but still a really cool album. Not sure if its overrated though. Napalm Death- Only album i like of theirs is Fear, Emptiness.. The rest...meh. Reign- nah, its not overrated. Its 30 mins of get pumped every time you listen to it. Seasons IS more dynamic, but it also has some real duds. PT2: Opeth- still meh. Korn- Untouchables. Its good. I dont think its overrated. Issues is a a great album. BTBAM- Lol, nah. SFU- man, i loved this album when it came out, but it DEFINITELY doesnt hold up. None of their other albums are even worth a listen. Tool- a good album, but not a GREAT album. Carcass- Never got into these guys except for Heartwork. What a fantastic album. Slipknot- First two albums crush. Everything after, turned to Slipknot lite (aka Stone Sour). Some good songs in their work after the first two, but not very good albums. Dream Theater- Lol Nope. Venom- Terrible. A legacy based on an album title. Black album- Nah, not overrated. There was nothing else to do for them after and/or in "thrash/whatever youd call ..Justice. But its the album EVERY band wish they could make. I dont think theres any bad songs...actually, Of Wolf and Man is a bit goofy, but the rest make up for it, although if i never hear Sandman again, im ok with that. PT3 Meshuggah- Ok album not my fave. Nothing rules. Enslaved- Tied and tried to listen to these guys, their just so boring. Meh. Disturbed- Good rock album. Probably a bit overrated in their discography. 40 Below Summer!?!?...looool That album is terrible. Black Dahlia- Miasma is a fantastic album all the way through. SOAD- great album. First one is def better, but they expanded on the sound with Toxicity. Linkin Park. EVERYTHING they have done is completely overrated. Some really good songs here and there, but thousands of bands that have much better output. At the gates- Another band ive tried and tried with. They just dont click with me. Gojira- I like this band a lot. I didnt like this album though, not sure why. Celtic Frost- Cool stuff, but not anything i listen to regularly. Monotheist however, is one of the best albums ever made.... Megadeath- Countdown is a killer album. Nothing like their old output, but took a step into a heavy rock sound and still had that Megadeth touch. Great stuff. PT4 Priest- Screaming, Defenders of the Faith, and Painkiller are the only albums i listen to somewhat regularly. Cannibal- The Bleeding. PERFECT death metal album. Nothing else to be said. Whitechapel- First album rules. Never bothered with the rest. Peace Sells... Another perfect album. Nothing bad. Same with Rust... just perfect. Pantera- Killer album, IDK why anyone would NOT like it. Pretty bad take with this one. Although Vulgar is my go to as well. Slaughter to Prevail- This band sucks. Seriously. Machine Head- First album rules, there are some great songs in their discography, but i never listen to them. Soilwork- Perfect Album. Consistently great band. BURZUM- Too bad Varg is...well...Varg. FIlosofem is the best, but they all have their place, and all are great albums. Maiden- Just dont get into them. I get why theyre popular and are obviously an important band...just not for me. PT5 Avenged- Great album, close to perfect. Never bothered with the rest. Insomnium- Nope. completely boring band. EVERY album of theirs just trudges along...meh. Sleep Token- Great stuff. Lots of great songs, with lots of not great songs, but the ones that are good are really good. Zeal and Ardor?!?!? LOOOOL nah. Cattle- The band gets better with each album. Death Atlas is fantastic. Anthropophocene is underrated. Exhorder- Boring when it came out, still boring after all these years. Bolt Thrower- IVth is fantastic. EVERY Bolt Thrower is fantastic. Exodus- Lol Nope. In Flames- Good album. Theres just too many (of theirs) thatre better. Testament- VERY hit and miss, but over all a good album. Bodom- Never like them. PT6 Death Angel- Nope. Terrible. Job for a Cowboy- Was cool when it came out, just doesnt hold up. They have grown to be an amazing band though. Sodom- nope. SFU- lol already said it. Priest- Sad Wings. Nope.

I always thought Opeth were super overrated. Same with In Flames (people were jocking Jester Race and Clayman hard when I got further into metal). And yeah, Slaughter of the Soul too - boo me lol.

[@rapmetaldemon09]

I feel some people just don't get melodeath. People say it's an oxymoron because it's death metal that's not overly brutal

[@vciotoli2126]

@rapmetaldemon09 I can agree with that. Never been my thing, I always leaned more towards the slower/sludgier side of things.

[@ding1r]

@@rapmetaldemon09 yeah i kinda agree with that statement, cool riffs but i need more heavyness/speed. Idk if Allegaeon could be called melodeath, but that's a band i really like

[@rapmetaldemon09]

@vciotoli2126 I feel the best part of melodeath is that it's not just the Gothenburg style that everyone talks about and Carcass. Some have a more progressive metal leaning like Scar Symmetry or Ne Oblivscaris. Some songs by longtime death metal bands like Entombed are very much melodeath songs. Dissection has some great releases that ride the line between melodic death metal and chilling black metal. There is a band called Redface I just recently got into as well who have a very unique blend of sounds. Sylosis, Dark Tranquility, Into Eternity, Sacrementum. Obviously no one is going to like everything, but I guess my plea is to not give up on melodeath. It's a diverse and influential genre that even more brutal bands take notes from here and there

[@Rightchickenwing]

10:09 Exactly, this is why I find old Metallica songs so boring, my mate loves Fade to Black, the outro bit with the clichéd riff and harmonies. Yawn!! 😴😴🙄🙄
