    For those of you that are saying that Deep purple,Rainbow aren't metal you need to think in the context of the pre 80s at the end of the 70s this was as heavy as it got , there was no thrash , we're talking pre maiden even. I remember sitting with my brothers friend around 1978/79 when i was around 10 years old listening to deep purple ,rainbow ,thin lizzy thinking this is better than all this disco shite my sister was listening to

    Great to have included Candlemass but "Painkiller" of Judas Priest I think is more essential than any Gorguts album. Finally I would have included a Helloween album and "Them" of King Diamond.
    I would not have included Pantera and Porcupine Tree.

      I'm not a big fan o them simply. It's isn't a 50 most essential list (they would have to be on that list) . Instead it's simply 50 essential albums which means I have the option to omit bands that I don't personally gravitate to. But I understand why would think they should feature, they were very influential.

    Still can't understand why is Rush consided metal. Red is not a metal album.
    Anyway, Lateralus, Keeper(s) of the Seven Keys, Heaven & Hell, Blizzard of Ozz, Symbolic, Ride the Lightning, The Divine Wings of Tragedy, Dirt (still more metal than KC and Rush), Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk should have been included.
    Glad you put Fear of a Blank Planet though.

      @@Menyukai_wanita_tak_berhijab Rush inspired progressive metal as Zeppelin, Who, Thin Lizzy, Kiss, Queen and AC/DC inspired heavy metal. None of those bands were/are heavy metal though. Rush were definitely a rock band. And Moving Pictures is definitely a "soft" prog album. Witch Hunt is a dark song, but the rest are happy-sounding and Vital Sings is reggae-rock.
