This is a power-metal-meets-classical attack on the senses, and an epic tale that delves into the ancient secrets of Egypt, the lost continent of Atlantis, and magnificent recollections of forbidden technology held by these ancient civilizations. Here's a list of the 10 best heavy metal concept albums. We just love it when heavy metal artists take a central theme and develop it over the span of a cohesive collection of tracks to create an experience for listeners that takes us into an alternate world of sci-fi, Norse mythology, wizards, classic literature…the nerdier the better. Pitchshifter – – 1998Ĥ6.Everyone loves a good concept album. Manic Street Preachers – Generation Terrorists – 1992Ĥ5. Pink Floyd – Dark Side Of The Moon – 1973Ĥ2.

Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machineġ5. Faith No More are great, but more influential than Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and The Beatles? No!

*** Pistols - Never Mind The ******** Here's The *** PistolsĢ3. Jimi Hendrix Experience - Electric Ladylandġ3. Guns n'Roses - Appetite For DestructionĨ. Added to this are the incredible inconsistencies, for example: Jimi Hendrix's Electric Ladyland is rated 8, behind Guns 'n' Roses The *** Pistols are at 13, ahead of Sad Wings of Destiny Deep Purple's Machine Head at 15, is behind Slayer and who the hell are Moot the Hoople?Īnyway, if like me you've ever wondered what constitutes the 'Kerrang! 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums Of All Time' list, here it is:ĥ. It seems Boston, *** Pistols and Bryan Adams are all heavy metal. Admittedly, I have not researched Kerrang's definition of heavy metal and I'll be ironing my banknotes before doing so. This one is incongruous to me because I don't like the term 'heavy metal', much less understand what it is supposed to mean. The magazine seems to be competing with Rolling Stone for the most bizarre lists. When referencing bands on Wikipedia, this poll keeps cropping up - it is the 'Kerrang! 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums Of All Time' list from 20007.
