Sabbath with Dio is awesome, as is the Born Again album with Ian Gillan but cmooooon, nothings touching the first 6 Ozzy albums, nothing.

Have a similar problem with Neurosis as I do with Isis, couple of good ideas and half decent records strung out over years and years with diminishing returns, and worst of all an endless spawn of dull mediocre immitators.
Best I can say for Turner is Old Man Gloom is cool and hydra head put out some great stuff.

I'd even say a wrong opinion.

Ether, how is Reasonable Doubt being Jay-Z's best album an unpopular opinion?

-the demo is always better than the album.
-first 4 Manowar albums rule.
-the first 2 Kings Of Leon albums are world class rock n roll records worthy of CCR comparisons.(theyve been utter shite ever since tho)
-people who instantly disregard all chart pop music are morons, like any genre theres good and bad and if you cant even tell the good pop from the bad then you aint got much hope with the more obscure stuff.

This, this and this.

I'll put Slayer's first 5 full length records against Metallica's anyday. Same with Megadeth, Anthrax, Testament and Overkill. Great, great records but their contemporaries never got their due. Metallica is hard rock thrash and easily the most boring member of the Big 4.

Somebody explain the appeal of post '89 Metallica to me. Please. I gladly take John Bush Anthrax over it.

How have they remained the biggest metal band in the world? No band has EVER rested on its laurels as much as Metallica. Everything they did in the 1990s was a watered down blatant cash grab to absolute shit. Symphony orchestra gimmick, really? So hack, so cheesy.

St. Anger, Death Magnetic and Lulu is the worst three album run in American thrash.

Kirk Hammett is a hack. Lars Ulrich is a disgrace compared to his contemporaries. Guys like Sandoval, Hoglan, Lombardo and Benante. He is an embarrassment compared to what modern metal has been producing lately.

The most talented member of Metallica has always been the bassist. JASON NEWSTED. Yeah, I said it. Newsted's pick playing should have elevated this band to a whole new level. Instead they hazed the shit out of him and the fans have rejected him. Everybody is in denial about Cliff Burton's skill level. Look, he died in a car accident. He didn't get canonized as a saint, people. Newsted-Trujillon-Burton. Stop worshiping Burton's corpse. It isn't a big insult to say Burton is 3rd when the other two smoke the shit out of almost every metal guy who ever picked up a bass, so settle down.

Replace these lame fuckers with Testament or Overkill in the Big 4. So many LAZY people making it big.

I don't know if it's Burton's skill level that fans cling to, but rather the idea that he'd never have let them go soft. Which isn't really fair either because we don't really know how things would have turned out had he lived.

New Testament fucking owns BTW.

Though I agree with Hanoi that the first six are in a league of their own, I do have mega-love for H&H/Mob Rules/Born Again...Dehumanizer, not so much.

Heaven and Hell might touch Sabotage, but not the first 5. And the other two are nowhere as good as Heaven and Hell.

Somebody that I used to know by Gotye and Kimbra is hugely overrated. I don't understand how people like that song.

Lil Wayne isn't as bad as people make him out to be. Hes actually great when he actually puts effort into his lyrics. Hes far from being a horrible rapper. Just listen to Dedication 2.

Limp Bizkit was and still is awesome.

As much as I love Tupac and Biggie and how much influence they had on Hip-Hop back in the 90's, anybody who seriously thinks that they are the best rappers ever are probably wannabee Hip-Hop junkies who don't know a thing about Hip-Hop. The best rappers ever should be between Big Daddy Kane, Rakim, or KRS 1, the innovators of the game.

Eminem's music isn't aging too well and this is coming from a big Eminem fan.

Dubstep is great when used right.

NoGimmicksNeeded and I are the only people I've ever heard espouse the belief that Del is the Goat Rapper.
