Metal by Year: 70s swapouts and starting the 80s chart

I didn't get to finish the 70s one last night unfortunately due to the how late it was (I apologize for that)

So! We got some options! We can talk swapouts for the 70s chart, OR we can just dive right into the 80s. Your call. Let's have fun with this

Let's get right into the 80's, AKA the period of metalkino

Ask and ye shall recieve.

Will post basic-bitch 80s chart soon. (Formatting takes some time, also GTA)

>1980
Motorhead - Ace of Spades
>1983
Suicidal Tendencies - Suicidal Tendencies
>1984
Motorhead - No Remorse
>1986
Candlemass - Epicus Doomicus Metallicus
Megadeth - Peace Sells, but Who's Buying?
>1987
Candlemass - Nightfall
Death - Scream Bloody Gore
Judas Priest - Priest...Live!
Melvins - Gluey Porch Treatments
Napalm Death - Scum
>1988
Death - Leprosy

>1989
Godflesh - Streetcleaner

Man who sold the world is metal?

there's too much niche garbage on here to even get started

I thought it counted because of the heavy guitars and lyrical content. I was wrong.

Well we're doing both charts so you're more than welcome to offer some.

AND WE'RE OFF!

Would metalheads be mad if I posted a link to this thread in a metal general?

/metal/ is literally just shitposting nowadays, don't bother
Anyways, can't forget this good ol hickey dickey

Might as well post an update.

No one wants you dead huh?
Anyways, add this too

Yes sir...

>Shivering in your boots so hard you delete your completely anonymous post
kek. I already traced your IP faggot

@71731522

Well shit.

I had a good life.
(No I didn't)

Have a look at these.

My take on early/pre metal.

Cheers.

Respect for making these, my man. Look like pretty cool charts.

You need to start fleshing out the early 80s.

More Motorhead, Sabbath's Heaven and Hell/Mob Rules, Mercyful Fate, Venom, Iron Maiden, and early doom like Witchfinder General, Trouble

Currently working on a basic first wave black metal list i will post here in a couple of minutes

You guys seem really cool. I like that. :)

I was worried about the reaction but you all seem like really nice guys (Aside from that jerk who threatened to trace my ip)

>1981
Venom - Welcome to Hell
>1982
Venom - Black Metal
>1983
Hellhammer - Satanic Rites
>1984
Bathory - s/t
Hellhammer - Apocalyptic Raids
Celtic Frost - Morbid Tales
>1985
Bathory - The Return
Sodom - In the Sign of Evil
Celtic Frost - To Mega Therion
>1986
Sepultura - Morbid Visions
>1987
Bathory - Under the Sign of the Black Mark
Sarcofago - INRI
Mayhem - Deathcrush
Poison - Into the Abyss
>1988
Bathory - Blood Fire Death
>1989
Tormentor - Anno Domini

I tried to leave out stuff that wasn't to important and narrowed it down to this. Tormentor, Poison, and some of the excess Hellhammer/Celtic Frost releases can be replaced if necessary

1980
Diamond Head - Lightning to the Nations
Angel Witch - s/t
Saxon - Strong Arm Of The Law

These 2 confirmed Kino as fuck.

>1980: Saxon - Strong Arm of the Law
>1981: Riot - Fire Down Under
>1982: Pagan Altar - Pagan Altar
>1983: Thin Lizzy - Thunder and Lightning
>1984: Bathory - Bathory
>1985: Celtic Frost - To Mega Therion
>1986: Fates Warning - Awaken the Gardian
>1987: Coroner - R.I.P.
>1988: Sabbat - History of a Time to Come
>1989: Pestilence - Consuming Impulse

Add these and we're cool

>1989
Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness
Autopsy - Severed Survival

Great job so far, buckaroos.

(I'm scared a'ma have to add Cannibal Corpse on the other charts)

Seventh Star and Eternal Idol need to be removed, they're awful albums. 86-87 were packed with metal classics and need the space. Napalm Death's Scum isn't a metal album either, grindcore, nigga.

>We're getting into sub genres now
Me scared scared.

Choose what I shall replace them with, friend.

>86: Destruction - Eternal Devastation
87: Coroner - R.I.P.
Pentagram - Day of Reckoning

Thanks. Will post update asap (rocky)

How's this Papa?

1980
Ozzy Osbourne - Blizzard Of Ozz

1981
Ozzy Osbourne - Diary of a Madman
Tygers Of Pan Tang - Spellbound
Holocaust - The Nightcomers
Cirith Ungol - Frost and Fire

1982
Witchfinder General - Death Penalty

>1983
Slayer - Show no Mercy
>1984
Slayer - Haunting the Chapel
Destruction - Sentence of Death
>1985
Slayer - Hell Awaits
Possessed - Seven Churches
Destruction - Infernal Overkill
>1986
Slayer - Reign in Blood
Dark Angel - Darkness Descends

>grindcore isn't metal
Um....

Scum definitely isn't metal at least.

Scum is far more on the punk side of things to my ears. FETO draws heavier on death metal, but I'm probably just splitting hairs.

1987
-Priest... Live!
+Sacrifice - Forward to Termination

Also not sure what that Hypocrisy album is doing there.

>Also not sure what that Hypocrisy album is doing there.
Had the wrong album.

Was suppose to be Poison not Hypocricy. My bad.

DO NOT DO ALBUMS

BANDS ONLY

>Do not do albums

...That's not a good idea at all.

there's also that "the blood rituals" album on there in 85

THAT was me mixing up different 'To Mega Theorin's'

Notice how the correct one I added next to it like an idiot instead of realizing my mistake.

Are you fucking high? There are way too many. Write the bands only and then a 4x4 e.g. Metallica - kea, rtl, mop, ajfo. Then if an important band only had one album then still just write the band but of course picture just that album. If the band has less than 4 albums then the best must be chosen to avoid a square of 2 or 3. However this is more work but far better use of the limited 120 squares.

Bro this is how I've done LITERALLY every chart.

Doing 'artists' would be taking the easy way out

We are not fucking with the formula, Brian.

How in the fuck is that the easy way out? We would have to find way more significant albums to fill the chart. Your way is a total copout wasting 4 squares for insanely obvious bands like metallica

Fine, if you can get ONE person to back you up, I'll completely fuck up the format I've done literally every single genre chart I've done up to now just to satisfy you.

1984
Cirith Ungol - King of the Dead
Jag Panzer- Ample Destruction

1985
Fates Warning - The Spectre Within

1987
-Motorhead - Rock 'n' Roll
+King Diamond - Abigail

To satisfy me? Look at how many obvious bands are missing. 120 bands is arguably too few but it seems at least possible. 120 albums is laughable. This chart will not be taken seriously by anyone except plebs.

>1988:
Morbid Saint - Spectrum of Death
Sadus - Illusions
Vio-lence - Eternal Nightmare

>using plebs to justify your argument

The point of this isn't to include every damn metal album. It's to include a handful that Sup Forums thinks are important/good.

Plus: Would I ONLY be doing this for the 80s? Would I have to change the ones for the other genres? This is the format I've done for the whole series and I see no reason to change it.

If it were 'so easy' to get 120 albums we'd have them by now. 120 albums is plenty of albums for a decade of a genre.

Also: What 'obvious bands'? They would have easily been included by now if you just said what albums to include. I can swap out ANY repeats.

The big 4 aren't even included ru4reel

Slayer, Metallica, and Megadeth are already on there.

All that's missing is Anthrax and I could easily throw one of their albums in.

Among The Living, because that's the only thing Anthrax ever did worth a shit.

...

You're doing fine work, Chartguy. Carry on.

Thank you very much, sir.

Sorry bud I saw your message after I posted the update. I can switch it around don't worry.

Nah, Fistful of Metal is the best.

Oh ok I missed Megadeth but still. Well you're doing the work so it's up to you but coming up with 120 important metal bands from the 80s is very possible if not easy. Ill toss out one that I dont think you would be mentioned. Ministry who might even have a 4x4. Land of Rape and Honey, Mind Is Terrible Thing to Taste, Psalm 69 then maybe toss in the live album to get a 4x4. All of these albums are way more metal than at least some of the albums already listed.

>coming up with 120 important metal bands
I'm sure we'll be up to 120 by the end of this.

We're doing metal charts for EVERY decade. Having 120 artists for one decade is frankly unnecessary. I understand you're very passionate about the genre, and I get it, you really want people to discover as much of it as they can. I completely understand. I just feel like it's unnecessary to have 120 artists.

I'm sorry for being rude to you earlier but I'm gonna have to respectfully decline doing artists.

I will be happy to add some of your suggestions though.

Aw crap half of those Ministry albums are actually 90s and Mind is Terrible actually only barely squeaks into the 80s. Well this may be a little more difficult but still that should be the point.

1983
Manilla Road - Crystal Logic
Dio - Holy Diver

1984
Saint Vitus - s/t

> I just feel like it's unnecessary to have 120 artists.
Then you are way underestimating 80s metal

Severe lack of Exodus - Bonded by Blood here

>The Land of Rape and Honey
I can't tell if that's the best or worst album name I've ever seen in my life.

Buddy. I am doing FIVE decade charts for metal. That's why I don't wanna overblow one decade.

It's already scary enough I might have to put Cannibal Corpse on one of the charts. That's sacrifise enough for me.

I promise you what I can get on these charts will be as good of a representation of your favorite genre as I can make it.

Crimson Glory - Transcendence (1988)
Running Wild - Death or Glory (1989)
Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys part I (1987)

It could be done for every decade although it seems most intimidating for the 70s. Think of it this way, if this is done fairly then multiple albums from bands would almost always get switched out for a band thay wasnt even mentioned at all. So basically the only question is if you want a single album to represent bands or a 4x4. Seriously if you kept this thread open and didn't simply move on then that is guaranteed what would happen.

1983

-Ministry
-Suicidal Tendencies

+Satan - Court in the Act
+Accept - Balls to the Wall

>So basically the only question is if you want a single album to represent bands or a 4x4
Between the two? Single albums, if necessary. There's no problem with one or two albums representing an artist (though it rarely happens anyway)

1981
Def Leppard - High 'n' Dry
Motley Crue - Too Fast for Love
Demon - Night of the Demon
Saxon - Denim and Leather

1980
Quartz - Stand Up and Fight

Savatage - Hall of the Mountain King (1987)
Omen - Battle Cry (1983)
Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime (1988)
Warlord - And the Canons if Destruction Have Begun (1984)
Metal Church - Metal Church (1984)
Helstar - Nosferatu (1989)
Riot - Thundersteel (1988)

When I saw Clash of the Titans festival in 1989 they played Ministry - The Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Taste between sets and everybody went apeshit. They qualify.

Excuse me 1990

yeah, but not With Sympathy

>Excuse me 1990
You're excused.

1983 was an incredible year for metal. Here are some other contenders:

Heavy Load - Stronger Than Evil
Savage - Loose 'N Lethal
Witchfinder General - Friends Of Hell
Warlord - Deliver Us
Raven - All for One
Anvil - Forged in Fire
Motley Crue - Shout at the Devil
Exciter - Heavy Metal Maniac
Savatage - Sirens

Omg I didn't even see that holy shit. LMfAO

Well that's dandy friend but

A: If you want something replaced in 83 you gotta say what.
B: I'd prefer to focus on the wasteland that is the empty 82 year so far.

Why do you give a shit what year it is?

Because that's how the chart's organized?
That's how EVERY chart has been organized.
Each row is a year.

That's the ENTIRE reason the series is called 'X genre' by year'

1982

Heavy Load - Death or Glory
Anvil - Metal on Metal
Accept - Restless and Wild
Tank - Filth Hounds of Hades
Raven - Wiped Out
More - Blood & Thunder

I would replace Another Perfect Day and Born Again with whatever the other guy wants.

That's fucking retarded, you'll be leaving out important albums that way.

Why would you take off ST? Among other reasons Dave Lombardo is their drummer now. Pretty sure that says where their priorities are. Musically they were far more important to metal than punk.

agreed
Savage - Loose 'N Lethal
Raven - All for One

Relax, the chart can be expanded if needed

Well I'm sorry you weren't there for the 16 other threads I did in the exact same style to nag about how I do these.

It's not suppose to include every single metal album. Just a little from each year to give people a sample of what it was like around that time. Same thing I did for the jazz and hip hop charts.

Well whatever.

It's an important crossover album. Certainly it could stay but 12 slots is tough for 83.

Not arguing against the format, though, it is what it is.

Because it's more challenging that way. Your mission is to find strong metal albums from 1982

Well true I'd agree then if we're thinking 12 per year

Max for topsters is 12 columns. Don't know why.

Either way I think 120 albums of a genre for a decade should be plenty.

Well, I'm fookin beat, so off to bed. Good work, Chartdude.

DON'T LEAVE ME WE HAVE MORE TO DO!

what happened to that raven cover

I clicked download too early.
It's there normally now.

87

- candlemass
+ napalm death - scum

But someone told me that wasn't metal...

I'm confused, papa.
