Is this the best metal album of all time?
ye
no, this one is
>>61750430
i think so
>>61750455
oh wow that's an interesting collaboration
>"The album was recorded under purposefully bad conditions. No guitar amplifier was used; Vikernes plugged his guitar into the amplifier of his brother's stereo and used an old fuzz pedal. For the vocals, he asked a sound technician for the worst microphone he had, and ended up using a headset."
You can't take it seriously
>>61750555
It takes it to the extreme, RAW as fuck
Yep OP, one of them.
And ... I don't really like my country, but french BM is actually very good. Look for Sale Freux, Peste Noire, and Baise Ma Hache. There is the most "popular" BM bands here. ( My favorite is Sale Freux ).
If somebody come next to Paris a day, I'll enjoy to make him discover a few of very good french bands.

The right choice
I listen to a fuck ton of metal and I can't think of a metal album I've heard more than Dopethrone
>tfw I had two sleeves of Dopethrone
>pic related is one
>>61750430
it's pretty far from best
>shit quality
>atheist 2edgy4me lyrics
>made by a crazy neo-pagan white supremacist
>hasn't even aged well and it has little merit as a record
>guy looks like a piece of shit hipster now
no
>>61750924
>all those ad hominems
>>61750455
i fucking love this album. my 2014 AOTY
Admittedly don't know much metal outside of drone doom, stoner doom, sludge doom, and Norwegian black metal, but Dopesmoker is the best to me
>>61750430
No, it's Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
>>61750430
I wouldn't even consider that "metal" in the first place. Metal has riffs and solos and shit. That's like a melodrama movie soundtrack without the movie.
>metal
>>61750430
that's not even black metal

le death metal fags have arrived
None So Vile is better btw
>>61750709
Superb album.
To be honest I rather dislike qualifications like "best of [overarching blanket genre] of all time" for genres that have many distinct subgenres. Dopethrone is fuggen gr8, and I think within the "stoner" subgenre the only album that competes is Sleep's Dopesmoker.
Pic related is my unironic tech death choice. I don't understand the hate on this, there's fucktons more than >muh fast sweeps
>>61752121
Very nice album
No, the best metal album is actually Grand Belial's Key - Judeobeast Assassination
>>61752121
>neurosis
>death metal
It's either this or 1184
The remastered version of Megadeth's Rust in Peace is objectively the greatest metal album ever.

Burzum is hardly metal. Burzum is essentially ambient music with a nazi faggot screaming wailing about his virginity into a tape deck.
>>61750709
not even the best wizard album
>>61752305
i liked that one a fuckton but phase inducer was a bit drawn out
>>61750430
Burzum is fucking ez mode metal. What's a matter, baby? Need your music to sound nice and melodic because you're a little babby emo faggot that can't handle a bit of aggressiveness? Listening to Burzum is a sign of a low-testosterone. They should call it "Nu-Male Metal." Mayhem are a better metal band in every way.
>>61750494
it's really an incredible album
can't wait for Full of Hell and The Body
If we're talking about cross metal genre appeal then the right answer is Number of the Beast.
Is it possible to identify a single best album?
Objectively?
I can't even pick 10 bests
>>61750430
>>61752518
Yes
see:
>>61752302
>>61750924
So, you want to criticize the album by pointing out its author's religion, ideals and current look?
>>61750924
Man I'm not a big Burzum (or black metal fan) but I would definitely disagree with the fact that it hasn't aged well. Hvis La Tar Oss is definitely a better album overall though.

i do no lik megadet
>>61752587
varg isn't even a nazi though he just hates jews
>>61753134
fantastic
i have totally reassessed his political philosophy
i am now a neopagan douche who only hates jews
it's the best because it's literally the only one worth your time.
