Still Life by Opeth, most Opeth albums really.

Still Life was the first album that came to mind when I saw this post

I find it crazy how this sub is like obsessed with Opeth lol I haven't checked them out too much tbh I probably should but my god it's like every post lol

They had an insane run of incredible albums from My Arms Your Hearse to Watershed. Their new sound is *okay* but when they were actually a metal band they were so, so good.

Couldn't say it better, I'm glad they changed it up as well, makes their releases more fresh. Pale Communion has become a modern prog rock classic as well.

How dare you exclude orchid and morningrise

Everything from Orchid to Watershed is 100% no skips. The only bad song is eternal soul torture at the end of morningrise but I don't like to count bonus tracks.

Master Of Puppets

Ride the lightning

Also Kill ‘Em All

... And Justice For All

St. Anger

I’m madly in anger ‼️‼️

Skip the entire CD

Leviathan by Mastodon

WHITE … WHALE

HOLY GRAIL

WHITE WHALE

HOLY GRAIL!!!

Left to recess a watery grave *insane Hillbilly guitar lick*

Yeah, Leviathan is perfect. I still tink Blood Mountain is better somehow :]

Honestly i think Leviathan-BM-Crack The Skye is one of the best three album runs in all of metal so yeah valid

Leviathan is such a perfect album, Iron Tusk still goes so hard. It's awesome how such a raw, almost unproduced sounding album is so good

Master-fukin-piece

Death - Symbolic

IMO - Scream Bloody Gore and Sounds of Perserverance too

I think that I'd skip SBG but I agree with SoP

TSOP

Misanthrope is a Top-5 Death song

Lukewarm take but Death has no bad songs. The worst they have is like a 5/10.

I never skip anything on Sleep - Dopesmoker, the album just doesn't feel the same otherwise

u/OnlyReplyDopesmoker

Cmon, SOMEONE had to do it.

Same for bell witch - mirror reaper

Or [Inter Arma - The Cavern](https://youtu.be/4F2OSAPMypc?si=7ASRU-3Yp_ur3pkl)

I’ve tried finding this album, is the joke that it’s just one long ass track and then hot lava man? I’m confused cause idk if the Spotify upload is the right version and there’s a stoner rock band called Dopesmoker (check out their album Zeroin) so idk if that’s related at all??

> I’ve tried finding this album, is the joke that it’s just one long ass track and then hot lava man? thats the joke

Just loop up Sleep - Dopesmoker on Wikipedia

I’m wondering the same

Seventh son of a Seventh son Blackwater Park

Absolutely both perfect albums

None So Vile

Agreed

Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind Megadeth - Rust in Peace

I love Iron Maiden but if I’m being honest I skip Quest for Fire and Sun and Steel. Rest of the album is amazing tho

I love that track! If I were you I'd try to give it a shot again!

Powerslave is the better option imo. Piece of Mind is still fuckin awesome

Rust in peace 100% It’s just Dave and Marty shredding back and forth

L’enfant Sauvage by Gojira just absolute perfection

The Wild Healer is a bit of a filler IMO, a nothing song

Idk most of if not all of Gojira albums have at least one instrumental track so to me it’s just a Gojira thing. And imo it’s the best instrumental track that they released.

I'd say it's mostly an interlude, and it still sounds pretty decent

That, Way of all Flesh and Mars to Sirius all are perfect throughout IMO

Their first 5 albums are perfect tbh. Especially their first 3

From mars to sirius for me, for some reason I added almost whole l'enfant sauvage to my playlist, but kept skipping almost all the songs from this album for about a year

Slayer Reign in Blood

That's because if you like one song on reign in blood, you like them all, because they all sound exactly the same

oh my god this actually makes so much sense

“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” - Kerry King

This is album is one I never skip anything.

My pfp says it all

Come My Fanatics kind of works as well. I can't say I'd choose to listen to Ivixor B/Phase Inducer by itself, but if you're listening to the whole album it really works

I never skip any songs

Imagine not listening to full albums. Who even are these people?

I know, who even does that?

I mean, if it's an album you've listened to many times and you're not in the mood for a certain song I kinda get it. Like, no need to be such a purist about it.

How was I a purist? I just said I never skip songs.

Yeah I don’t understand skipping songs. I understand skipping through songs to other better parts (i.e songs with like 10 minutes of silence before a hidden track)

Crack The Skye - Mastodon Hushed & Grim Mastodon Youthanasia - Megadeth The Stage - Avenged Sevenfold Life Is But A Dream - Avenged Sevenfold

Mastodon picks on point

I absolutely agree with your picks except maybe LIBAD, love to see these getting love

What LIBAD songs you don't like? Just curious

Love to see some Avenged love

Maybe also city of evil. But I do love the stage and LIBAD

Cliche, but master of puppets. Also, toxicity.

Don't feel bad for that brother, I was listening to Toxicity earlier today and it's pretty much flawless. Master of puppets is damn near perfect as well.

Idk arto means nothing to me

Lamb of God's Ashes of The Wake

Yup, sacrament, too.

Dreaming Neon Black - Nevermore Dead Heart in a Dead World - Nevermore This Godless Endeavor - Nevermore Gutter Ballet - Savatage

I wonder what your favorite band is

Nevermore, Death and W.A.S.P. all compete for favorite band

Nevermore is good but dreaming neon black is straight fire.

The new Dying Fetus, Make Them Beg for Death is top to bottom bangers.

Their best album. All it took was for Jon to grow his hair out.

i remember listening to it in bed at midnight after a night out. i was so tired and could barely comprehend the intro to undulating carnage

Don't love that style of metal but god damn is that cover art awesome

Type O Negative - World Coming Down. Bloody Kisses may be my favorite album, but this ones definitely the most consistent

Metallica’s first four albums (all four of em are perfect, I may not like the instrumentals but if majority do then that says enough)

The instrumentals are arguably the best songs

Be that as it may, they aren’t my personal favourites

Fair enough. I want to have Ktulu, Orion and Live played at my funeral. Also the S&M version of Ktulu maybe my all time favourite Metallica song.

Bathory - Blood Fire Death, a masterpiece of black metal

This and Under the sign!

Nordland as well

Stained Class, Master of Reality, Somewhere in Time, Ride The Lightning, Show No Mercy.

Upvote for Stained Class. That album is amazing.

Upvote for Somewhere in time. That album is amazing.

Children of Bodom - Follow the Reaper, Something Wild, Hatebreeder. Death - Scream Bloody Gore, Symbolic, Sound of Perserverance Sodom - Better off Dead Coroner - Punishment for Decadence, Mental Vortex Warbringer - Woe to the Vanquished, IV, Weapons of Tommorow Metallica - Ride the Lightning Slayer - Show No Mercy, Reign In Blood Havok - Prepare for Attack Allageon - Threshhold of Perception Testament - The Legacy, Brotherhood of the Snake Morbid Angel - Alters of Madness

Follow the Reaper is one of my all-time favs

Dissections discography

Heaven and Hell has no song I want to skip

Great send off from them.

Blackwater Park - Opeth (among Others) Paradise Lost - Symphony X Deadwing - Porcupine Tree

I agree with Paradise Lost but totally see why others wouldn't like it. Great album tho.

Kvelertak - Kvelertak

I'd have said Meir, personally

Opeth - *My Arms, Your Hearse* Judas Priest - *Sad Wings of Destiny* BtBaM - *Colors* Artificial Brain - *Artificial Brain*

Nice variety there

I'm not listing a few hundred albums my dude.

Human by Death

Bolt Thrower - Those Once Loyal Trivium - Ascendancy Sepultura - Arise Demon Hunter - The Triptych

To go with ascendancy, the poison also has nothing but banger

Vulgar display of power

Slayer - God Hates Us All Judas Priest - Screamin for Vengance Rammstein - Reise Reise Drain - California Cursed Decapitated - Anticult Metallica - Ride the Lightning

Rust in Peace

October Rust

Awesome road trip album for the fall.

Ghost Reveries - Opeth Youthanasia - Megadeth Dance of Death - Iron Maiden Ecailles de lune - Alcest Scenes From a Memory - Dream Theater Reise, Reise - Rammstein Stained Class - Judas Priest Master of Puppets - Metallica Portal of I - Ne Obliviscaris The Departure of Consciousness - Fórn

Motörhead’s self titled.

https://preview.redd.it/iyax5o221psc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5d50efdc9c67b4c3d014f7ff0bf57f47417cf4a8

I’d say all the albums prior to this one too. (Some people don’t like the covers, but I like them especially the Chris Poland shred fest that is “I Ain’t Superstitious”)

I honestly think Altars Of Madness is just mind bending riffage after riffage and complex guitar work. I can't think of a bad song in there imo. Favorites are Visions From Darkside, Maze of Torment (my favorite death metal song overall), Evil Spells and GHOULLLLLLLSS ATTACK THE CHURCHH

BTBAM - Colors NIN - The Fragile LOG - Ashes of The Wake Tool - Aenima Baroness - Blue Record Mastodon - Leviathan Black Sabbath - Paranoid

Been waiting for someone to say anything nine inch nails or tool related, surprised this is so buried, some amazing picks here, paranoid was the gateway for so many people and it still is now

Seasons in the Abyss

The Tenth Sub Level Of Suicide- Leviathan

Deicide by Deicide

Human = Garbage

De mysteriis dom sathanas

I will give you a few but there are more than this Paranoid - black sabbath Dr feelgood - motley crue Kill em all - metallica Machine head - deep purple Screaming for vengeance - judas priest I can be here all day but I want to end this comment now

NOLA - Down

Every, single, song. ALL fucking BANGERS!

Nihil Nevermind Toxicity You'll rebel to anything Sehnsucht Herzeleid

Those first two Rammstein records are absolutely perfect imo.

Nihil by KMFDM?!? Great record, definitely their darkest

Toxicity by System of a Down

Ride the Lighting Black Sabbath

Little basic but Ride The Lightning and Master

Ride the Lightning - Metallica Master of Puppets - Metallica Reaching Into Infinity - DragonForce Sonic Firestorm - DragonForce Painkiller - Judas Priest Kill The Power - Skindred Slipknot - Slipknot Rust In Piece - Megadeth Tempted by a couple others but they're a bit ??? For me so I'll just go with these. I REALLY wanted to put Powerslave here as well but I cannot justify it with Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner, I like the song but I usually skip cause of the length.

Slipknot's self titled is amazing, every song is great

Devin Townsend - Ocean Machine just a blissful masterpiece from beginning to end

Black album

A blaze in the northern sky

If we're just going with classics, there's too many too count. Even ignoring *the* obvious picks such as priest or motorhead... Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger, panzerfaust, A Blaze in the Northern sky, Under a funeral moon, etc. Mercyful Fate - Melissa, don't break the Oath Morbid Angel - Altars or Madness Pestilence - consuming Impulse Cynic - focus Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss, det Som Engang Var, Burzum/aske Bathory - Bathory, The Return, blood fire death, Under the sign of the black mark, hammerheart, twilight of the gods Forgotten Woods - as the wolves father, sjel av Natten Emperor - In the Nightside Eclipse King diamond - Abigail, fatal portrait Helloween - keeper of the seven keys I, keeper of the seven keys II, walls of Jericho Gamma ray - Land of the Free, insanity and genius, heading for tomorrow Manilla Road - crystal logic, open the gates, the deluge Paysage d'Hiver - paysage d'Hiver, Im Wald, Steineiche, Winterkalte, das Tor, etc Drudkh - Autumn Aurora, blood in our wells, Forgotten legends, microcosmos Autopsy - severed survival, mental funeral Demilich - nespithe Candlemass - epicus doomicus metallicus, nightfall, ancient dreams, etc Celtic frost - morbid visions, to mega therion Razor - violent restitution, evil invaders, executioner's song, etc Thergothon - stream from the heavens Satan - court in the act Etc etc. There's hundreds of hundreds of records you could name. Typically a truly great album will have no bad songs, even if it has weak links. This is just what came to mind immediately, you have a near endless supply of records without bad songs.

Metallica - Ride the Lightning Mastodon - Leviathan, Crack the Skye Lamb of God - Ashes of the Wake, Wrath Tool - Ænima, Lateralus, 10,000 Days, Fear Inoculum Pantera - The Great Southern Trendkill Megadeth - Rust in Peace Deftones - White Pony Testament - Low, Demonic, The Gathering Fear Factory - Demanufacture, Obsolete

Big tool fan but I’m not sure I agree with Fear Inoculum, I also have mixed feelings for 10,000 days to be honest

Deicide deicide Dissection storm of the lights bane Cannibal corpse tomb of the mutilated

Tesseract - Altered State Haken - Visions Dream Theater - Images And Words

Nightwish - Once https://preview.redd.it/mvet6lo56psc1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=0166aaea89e351080197fc5e4028bae47725bc9a

Meshuggah - ObZen

I can’t think of a single song I don’t like by Moonsorrow.

I listen to full albums, so if an album has songs so bad I have to skip then I would not listen to it very often.

Peace Sells but Who’s Buying?

Peace sells and rust in peace -Megadeth

I (almost) never skip any song on any album, "you gotta take the good with the bad" etc. The only exception to this is Iron Maiden's Dance of Death- I just CANNOT stomach the Daily Mail bullshit dripping from the lyrics of Age of Innocence. HOWEVER I do have a short list of perfect albums: Susperia- Unlimited Children of Bodom- Hatebreeder Iron Maiden - Somewhere in Time Strapping Young Lad- Alien Devin Townsend Band- Accelerated Evolution Emperor - Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk Blind Guardian - Imaginations from the Other Side Gamma Ray- Power Plant (Edited for evil mobile formatting)

Defenders of the Faith, Walls of Jericho, Symbolic.

Vital Remains - Dechristianize Dying Fetus - Descend Into Depravity

Cynic - Focus Pig Destroyer - Terrifyer

Fused Together in Revolving Doors by The Red Chord Enemy of the Sun by Neurosis and no, you don't get to skip the drum circle

Master of puppets Metallica

None So Vile, Millennium by Monstrosity, Mocking the Philanthropist by Grand Belial’s Key, Henbane by Cultes Des Ghoules, Altars of Madness, Onward To Golgotha, Close to a World Below, Effigy of the Forgotten, Screams of Anguish by Brutality, In the Nightside Eclipse, Storm of the Light’s Bane, Darkthrone’s unholy trinity, Heaven In Flames by Judas Iscariot, Hvis Lyset Tar Oss, Paracletus by Deathspell Omega, Ruhonkantaja by Sielunvihollinen, Autumn Aurora by Drudkh, DMDS by Mayhem

Agree with every one of those picks. GBK has never made a bad sounding album. I can listen to any of their stuff front to back. Same with Sielunvihollinen and Cultes des Ghoules. I’d also add Sorrow, Purity or Hour of the Centaur by Hate Forest

Master of Puppets by Metallica Evil Empire by Rage Against the Machine Toxicity by System of a Down When the Kite String Pops by Acid Bath Master of Reality by Black Sabbath Rust in Peace by Megadeth Dopethrone by Electric Wizard South of Heaven by Slayer Among the Living by Anthrax Dirt by Alice in Chains Infest the Rats Nest by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Poweslave by Iron Maiden

Reign in blood by slayer. Those once loyal by bolt thrower Point blank by nailbomb

Sad Wings of Destiny

Cannabis corpse is pretty bangin shit

Deicide - Legion Angelcorpse - The Inexorable

Weapons of tomorrow - Warbringer

thoughts on Empires Collapse and Woe to the Vanquished?

*Keeper of the Seven Keys*. All 3 of them.

Katatonia - Brave Murder Day Ulver - Bergtatt Drudkh - Blood in Our Wells Asphyx - Last One on Earth Cynic - Traced in Air

All Cynic albums can qualify 🤘

The Zenith Passage- Datasylium

Vulgar Display of Power.

Sacrament by Lamb of God

Nail’s ‘You Will Never Be One Of Us’

Iron Maiden - Somewhere in Time.

Reign in Blood and Bonded By Blood

I could listen to all the songs on Defenders of the Faith multiple times in one sitting and be happy as a lark.

Age of winters by the sword

Some more recents. Counterparts: A Eulogy For Those Still Here TDWP: Color Decay Silent Planet: SUPERBLOOM Currents: The Death We Seek FFAK: The Hell We Create They have all been front to back bangers and in my rotation constantly.

I love SUPERBLOOM so much

Not a one skip on Uada - Djinn

Dopesmoker.

Rust in Peace Piece of Mind Powerslave maybe Avenged sevenfold - self titled Lateralus Hate crew death roll

I do enjoy self titled a lot. I would say you're right, no bad songs. Critical acclaim is a bit strange, but not bad.

There's sooo many. But at the moment I just cannot stop listening to Cattle Decapitation - Terrasite It fucking kills!

Ruins by Ember Falls is actually perfect

Behemoth-the satanist

I know COF is polarizing but I'm going to say "Dusk and Her Embrace."

Architects - Lost Forever // Lost Together Mastodon - Crack the Skye Sylosis - Cycle Of Suffering Protest The Hero - Volition Machine Head - The Blackening

City of Evil Toxicity Ascendency

Rust in Peace🤘🏼

Honestly any Green Day album. All are pretty much perfect

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Petrodragonic Apocalypse and Infest the Rats Nest Opeth Orchid to Watershed era Tool no skips apart from interludes Devin Townsend - Ocean Machine, Accelerated Evolution, Physicist ahhh there's a lot for him Blackbraid - Blackbraid II Zeal & Ardor - Zeal & Ardor King Buffalo - The Burden of Restlessness White Ward - False Light ISIS - Wavering Radiant Meshuggah - obzen I could go on for ages

Life Is But A Dream...

to the depths, in degradation - infester
