Buckcherry-Timebomb

I thought I was the only one who liked BC's oft-criticized middle child.  : ok:

OK, the last decade has been pretty weak for major label rock, but pretty damned good for metal.  So, here are a few picks:


Metal

Opeth - Blackwater Park (2001)
Norther - Mirror of Madness (2003)


Rock
Buckcherry - Buckcherry (1999)
Beautiful Creatures - Beautiful Creatures (2001)

Yeah I have told alot of people how good that album is so they pick it up but not many have listened. I've played it in my car for friends and they bought it immediately. It's really an amazing collection of songs. Not a track I would say is even mediocre or average, they're all great.

lol you're pretty cool yourself! good taste in music man.

its interesting, the NIN fanbase is pretty divided on The Fragile. an overwhelming majority will agree that it is a solid album, but others feel that it is overrated since so many NIN fans are obsessed with it and not only think its the best NIN album, but one of the best albums ever.

i am one of those people,it is my personal favorite NIN album, (although i think TDS is his best work overall, but its close). i think The Fragile and TDS are easily some of the best albums of all time.

lol yeah we do have similar tastes.

although i like the Beekeeper, i need to listen to it more to make a judgement. also, i forgot that Tori's From The Choirgirl Hotel came out in 1998 so it would be eligible. i'd add that to the list too because i am obsessed with it.

and D, The Fragile takes time to get it into, just like The Downward Spiral, both took me a while a decent amount of time to sink in, while the rest of the NIN albums didnt. but surprisingly enough TDS and The Fragile are my favorites.

i know Trent labored over The Fragile for a long time, and i think it shows. the only song i'm not too fond of is Starfuckers and even that is listenable.

And while I love the fragile, year zero is a better album, imho.

These albums were disqualified under the logic that "nu-metal" and "best" are contradictory terms.

BTW, why are there so many Tori Amos fans, here?  Is there some connection of which I'm unaware?

Many albums changed my musical taste on the last ten years.

U2 - Pop. I was 10 years old and watched an ad for Pop, Discotheque videoclip, that was the coolest thing I've saw, Bono was so badass. My first contact with Rock + electronic sounds.

Iron Maiden - Brave New World. I remember me and my brother listen to this album everyday. Many good memories.

NIN - The Fragile. When I discovered NIN in 2001, thanks to Axl (for hiring Robin) I discovered the band that I learned to love and discovered in Trent Reznor a big influence. The Fragile is the best album ever made!

A perfect Circle - Mer de Nows/13th Step. I listened to these albums so many times. Maynard became my favourite voice in "rock" music.

Coheed and Cambria, dredg, Oceansize, Bjork, Silverchair, Dream Theater, Bruce Dickinson, Madonna and Underoath also worth a mention. Yes I'm very ecletic.

Albums that could/should have made my list:

Tapeworm - This shit was going to be insane, Trent, Maynard and a bunch of awesome people working together, so sad they didn't release anything.

Chinese Democracy - This shit MUST be insane, Axl and a bunch of awesome people working together, so sad they didn't release anything..... yet.
