Where there's a whip there's a way!

[FORD]

Tough call between Ministry and Faith No More, but I'll give it to Mike Patton and the boys just because of the video with the flopping fish.

Rollins comes in a close third.

i was just listening to crptopsy

[Redballjets88]

you should also listen to Necrophagist they are awesome

[bueno bob]

Musically, Savatage's "Gutter Ballet" destroys everything on that list. I own all those albums and they all sound like a pack of amateurs compared to where Savatage was at that time.

Criss Oliva. Can't say it enough.

#1 album of the year for college radio for a reason.

[bastardog]

For me Savatage Guitar Bullet is the best one

I stick with four albums for Savatage that are kinda all defining..."Hall of the Mountain King", "Gutter Ballet", "Streets" and "Edge of Thorns"...during that era, they could do no wrong...

The earlier, more metal stuff, though...brilliant...Savatage was able to keep up with any other rock/metal band on the planet. And quite frankly they were better than most of them.

I saw them live in '91 and they remain one of the very best live shows I've ever seen...

[Jérôme Frenchise]

I think I must have Suicidal Tendencies' album of that year somewhere...
But once again I clicked on other: The Cult ~ Sonic Temple

It's not exactly heavy metal, but hell, how many cool riffs and true compositions you get in there...
OK, it might not be enough for an explanation, but though I dig that one less than "Electric", I thought it could figure on the list (even if I imagine it's hard to choose just ten). :cool:

i went to buy a necrophagist cd the other day at the store,and i saw it for like £5(i saw it said necropha,there was the pice lable covering up the rest,so i though it would be necrophagist).i got it home and took the lable off and it was Necrophagia or some stupid band with phil anselmo on guitar.i was suitably pissed off

[ELVIS]

Those choices suck!

What album did you choose then? :cool:

[ELVIS]

I have no idea...

1989 was a terrable year for music, I suppose...

I was playing in a band then, and I was oblivious to what was happening in current music...


Let me do some research...

[ELVIS]

Maybe this...

Yep.

Had pretty much no use for what he did with Ozzy, but I dug what I heard of Badlands.

[ELVIS]

Slip Of The Tongue was GRATE !!

Suicidal spelling in the poll by WARF...:)

[ELVIS]

LMAO!!!

WTF is Guitar Bullet ???

:D:D:D


I cannnot believe I never noticed...


Hahaha...:D

[mako_kimura]

I went with Skid Row, but 2 more that I'd give credit to:

1. Yngwie Malmsteen-Oddessy
2. Mr. Big-Mr. Big

[WACF]

Badlands...too bad it ended the way it did for them...outstanding band.

That was one i was about to suggest.

Id like to mention the following

Tesla: The great radio controversy
Nirvana: Bleach

[Dave's Bitch]

Obituary are awesome,i like john tardy's vocals

[ELVIS]

Nirvana is not metal...

[binnie]

Wow that was a choice I spent days over, because I love every fuckin' album on that list.

In the end, I went with Skid Row.

This is such a happy fuckin' rock record that I still isten too all these years on.

I thought they got even better with "Slave to the Grind".
Sebastian Bach's vocals are unbelievable, saw him last year and he owned the stage like no-one I have ever seen, with the exception of DLR.

Have to agree that Badlands were fuckin' killer tho'. I love that album, "High Wire" is an amazing riff.

Fuckin' memories, Ministry, FNM

Don't want to sound like an old fucker, but there just aren't the same calibre of bands anymore.

[audiospectrum]

Only have two of these albums (Skid Row and FNM). I just don't get into Skid Row all that much, I try and try but they just don't get me in the mood that I'm looking for. There's something missing that I just can't pinpoint...
No wait, they're missing David Lee Roth!

[Dan]

Faith No More.

[ElPatron]

ANNIHILATOR - ALICE IN HELL
SEPULTURA - BENEATH THE REMAINS
STRATOVARIUS - FRIGHT NIGHT
DREAM THEATER- WHEN DREAM AND DAY UNITE
FATES WARNING - PERFECT SYMMETRY
KING'S X - GRETCHEN GOES TO NEBRASKA
KREATOR - EXTREME AGGRESSION
ANVIL- PAST AND PRESENT LIVE
LOUDNESS - SOLDIER OF FORTUNE
M.S.G. - SAVE YOURSELF
U.D.O. - MEAN MACHINE
FIFTH ANGEL - TIME WILL TELL

[PumpedUpMidget]

Ministry--hands down

However, I almost vomited seeing Ministry being mentioned in the same breath as Skid Mark. Skid Mark--one of the gayest bands this side of Def Leppard.

[binnie]

LOL!


It was a great year for metal accross the spectrum, I love every album on that list, from the heaviest to the softest!

You heard the new Ministry album? It's a killer!

[PumpedUpMidget]
