you're gonna need some time to take the stash:

Hahaha...I've got two huge rolling suitcases that would fit every one. I'd leave the vinyl for the next guy having already sold all my own save a few imports/special editions, e.g. original Beatles, original Scorpions "Lovedrive" cover, etc.

 

[Enginerd A2]

That collection is very impressive. I'll be right over.

*Narlus, I saw you mentioned The Locust as an honorable mention. I've been meaning to check them out. I like some noisy punk/post-punk, like Refused, but are they very "accessible" or mostly ear-splitting?

 

[Zark]

Do you mean Stormtroopers of Death or System of a Down for SoD?

Stormtroopers of Death of course..
Not that System isn't great and all.

Ohh LL. You'll pry my CD's out of my cold dead fingers :devil:

 

[BikeGeek]

My list:
Celtic Frost - Morbid Tales
Slayer - Reign in Blood
Corrosion of Conformity - Animosity
Motorhead - No Sleep Til Hammersmith
Metallica - Kill 'Em All

not really accessible. kinda like the fast thrash stuff of lightning bolt or melt-banana. good in small doses.

 

[bigginsis]

Opeth
Clutch
Slayer Reign in Blood (anyone else have the disc with the red gel and floating skulls inside the cover? it was cool)
Metallica Master of Puppets
And COC because I grew up in Raleigh and went to school with some of them dudes (and a shout-out for Confessor)

 

[I Are Baboon]

Damn, Narlus. Very cool. Is that stuff organized in any way, other than vinyl to the left, CD's everywhere else?

 

[rigidhack]

Good picks! Gotta agree with the SOD. Slayer's South of Heaven ramps up my adrenaline levels every time.

Not metal, but way cool old stuff (if you can find 'em):
-Big Black - Atomizer, Songs About F***ing (Steve Albini, producer of Nirvana's In Utero album doing some really wild feedback/sick lyric stuff)
-Barkmarket - Vegas Throat, Gimmick (!)
-Shelac - (Steve Albini in a later band)

I bow to you with that Collection!

I knew you had to have an impressive collection of albums from all your other posts , But WOW

COC do you mean corrosion of conformitty?...MMM i used to have an album called animosity! what a great album! i totally fogot about that one!

 

[narlus]

the boxes of 7" singles (probably about 1200 or so) are upstairs in my bedroom...gotta figure out a way to get some slide-out shelves made, but a custom job would be pricey.

IAB, normally i go alphabetically (except for compilatons, which are sorted by label), but i've been busy ripping a lot of my cd to my 300GB external drive i bought a couple months ago, which is why stuff is in such disarray. i've got about 100GB filled, but plenty more to go. i think i may need another one.

btw, any NC peeps ever listen to any Antiseen? that's some good southern sludge rock.

 

[Rockland]

I'm glad someone mentioned Venom.. but you should have listed their true quintessential album: Black Metal. A whole sub-genere took up the name.

 

[bigginsis]

yep corrosion of conformity - man those dudes knew how to throw it down hard. went to many shows on the local scene...

 

[bigginsis]

WASP? Anyone else on board? and surely someone mentioned sepultura?

i love metal - even death metal.

antiseen was at a local metalfest out in wilson county recently - decent stuff.

 

[Zark]

I saw COC at a club in Isla Vista (that is now a classroom for UCSB.) Phil Anselmo from Pantera was there at the show and played bass on one tune and sang a Black Flag song with 'em. So friggen cool!

once i saw hootie and the blowfish in Wilmington NC at 3 bands for 3 bucks night...


the drummer for COC always blew me away - he could double bass with one pedal.

 

[dh girlie]

Slayer Reign in Blood (anyone else have the disc with the red gel and floating skulls inside the cover? it was cool)

BAHAHAHA! I have it!!!! 'The Blood Bag' I remember when I got one and brought it to work, all the metalheads I worked with went to Tower en masse to get their own...that was an EP though...with Seasons in the Abyss. My blood dried up though and the blood bag looks really gnarly now...but I still have it!

5 of my personal all time favorites:

Helmet - Meantime
Black Sabbath - We Sold our Souls for Rock and Roll
Anthrax - Among the Living
Metallica - Ride the Lightening
Slayer - of course...Reign in Blood

oh how could I forget...Alice in Chains - Dirt...really anything they did, but Dirts my favorite CD of all time.

 

[Mustang85]

Me likey...

Ride the Lightning
Kill 'Em All
Master

Slayer - season in the abyss

Megadeth - peace sells

I love the Refused too
Not really *metal* but children of bodom and arch enemy are super g-nar

you ever hear the Venom 7" which thurston moore put out on his ecstatic peace! label? damn that is funny. basically it was a live recording edited down to just the stage banter between songs.

 

[dh girlie]

Wow...the guys name is actually THURSTON?

 

[Morryjg]

original Scorpions "Lovedrive" cover

SCORE!!! I have that one too. The bubblegum on the boobie cover rocks!

 

[narlus]

Wow...the guys name is actually THURSTON?

don't tell me you don't know who thurston moore is? chief mover of sonic youth? hipster extraordinaire?

not to be confused w/ this thurston:

Never heard. Sounds like it would be kinda funny. Those who don't know who Thurston Moore is, for shame.

 

[llkoolkeg]

SCORE!!! I have that one too. The bubblegum on the boobie cover rocks!

...and even better is the clean, beautifully-shaped and fully-exposed boobie on the back with it's owner snarling! Talk about high school spank material! :love:

 

[tartosuc]

I just got back from hmv to order COC animosity...the album is "out of production"!

i wanted one! (i've lost my vinyl version long ago)

 

[narlus]

now that we are on skin material, let's diverge further. what's the best nudity on an lp jacket? my nominees are:

boss hogg - _drinkin' lying and letchin'_ or _cold hands_ (bonus for band leader christina being cover model for both)

or the pixies _surfer rosa_

oh, and there are probably about 35 acid mothers temple records which could also fit the bill. i think it's a kawabata makoto mandate that breasts be on nearly every release.

 

[Hello Kitty]

man of what type of metal ?

Stoner Rock
Proto-Metal
Heavy Metal
Speed Metal
Thrash Metal
Hardcore
Death Metal
Black Metal
Retro-cumulative
Industrial

[The Professor]

Here it goes in no praticular order:
Helmet- Meantime
Slayer- Reign in Blood (none more metal)
Metallica- Ride the Lightening
Minor Threat- Red album (the one with Ian on the cover), not metal but still kicks azz!
Bad Brains- Rock for Light, again not metal but same as above

Sorry DHG but what can I say, you have excellent taste in metal.

and not to be confused with THIS Thurston:

Horrible band but the cover makes it a little easier.

 

[dh girlie]

I was about to say the same about yourowndamnself!

 

[Rockland]

Ooo ooo oo. And how could I not mention the Dwarves cover art!! Leme go find a pic.

Edit: Second thought, I'd have to edit a bunch of the cover for public consumption. "Blood, Guts, & Pussy" wins hands down. :devil:

 

[dh girlie]

Y'all need to keep your internet porn to yourselves...this good thread is gonna get closed down or deleted...save it for your rub out sessions...

Oops! I mean album porn!

 

[narlus]

rockland, if you trot out _blood, guts, and pu$$y_, this thread will be smote w/ great vengeance.

gotta love the dwarves, though. who else would have a record called _toolin' for a warm tea bag_?
