Sometimes I wonder if I am completely insane... I love the swinging jazzy intro of These Boots! It annoys me the remasters have to bleep out the changed words that then ruins it for me. Thank goodness I have the original version too. I was worried when you mentioned The More Things Change as to which deeper cut track I love you'd choose but I think you're right about the Blistering. Without putting it on I can remember the intro immediatly but I have no idea how the rest of it goes by memory. I agree with you on Pantera too. Would you have enough material to do a reverse of this, Songs you love from albums you hate? I guess that might be an even harder list. Anyway Happy New Year and see you on the other side.
I saw Sabbath at Ozzfest in 99 and they played Changes over the PA as the crowd was leaving. I remember walking out of that show with my buddies and just being pumped from seeing the show (Godsmack, Slayer, Primus, SOAD, Rob Zombie, etc. just a killer lineup) so Changes will forever trigger that memory for me. Megadeth’s best cover, by leaps and bounds was Paranoid from the Sabbath tribute album, Nativity in Black. I don’t necessarily agree with your inclusion of Descent or El Phantasmo, I totally understand your reasoning. Obsolete and Astro-Creep are two albums that I can just hit play on and enjoy. I’ve found your channel one of the most enjoyable ones recently, partially because it’s helping me remember a few albums I have listened to in a while and it’s introduced me to a couple of new ones.
How far do you go on your hikes? I love to hike. I am often outside listening to music. The conditions in this video match the last cure album perfectly.
Mastodon are one of my favourite bands and I don’t think that there are any of their songs on any of their albums that I hate there are just some that my brain goes ‘no, not today give it a week maybe’
@@MikePitt84 like with most bands I think hat Mastodon have songs that you have to be ‘in the mood for’ in order to listen to or appreciate fully at times.
White Zombie Astro Creep 2000 never seems too get much love that whole album is a banger just love it,think i like it better then the one before it even though that one i love as well.And Type Os Life is Killing Me seems too be kinda low on most people's list of Type Os albums alot of it reminds me of October Rust and some parts of Bloody Kisses its a banger of an album that doesnt get enough love,great vid by the way.
Great list. I'm most in agreeance with you for FX, that isn't really even a song, let alone necessary as filler. Although I will disagree on Dev's Hyperdrive. The version on Ziltoid IMO is more atmospheric and laid back, where the version on Addicted - even though it's great - is much more loud and bombastic. The original came right after Solar Winds, and I think fits the "traveling through space" theme a little better than the Addicted version. I, like you, found it very difficult to find any songs from albums I love that I commonly skip. However if I had to choose, I'd pick these two: Addicted by Devin Townsend - It's an ok song at best for me, and the lyrics just rub me the wrong way. I don't generally skip it, but it's my least favorite from that album for sure. Spread Eagle Beagle by the Melvins - Houdini is a killer album otherwise, and though I don't really skip this song, I can certainly understand why people would. It's more of an experiment, but less of a "sound collage" and closer to a song than FX was.
Have a great new years & I hope 2025 is your best year yet dude! You deserve it 👍🏻 Songs I hate from albums I enjoy are: 1, Starting controversial, but it's personal preference & that is 'Ride The Lightning' Metallica. I've never liked this song. It always felt lazy & dragged to me. 2, 'Planet Caravan' Panteras cover. Just no!! 3, 'Holy War' Megadeth. Just something about the way he sings in this, it grinds at me 😅 That'll do for now. I could do more controversial ones, but it's too early for that. I need more coffee 😂
Another great vid, for me -- I know easy to say but as much as I love Slayers albums i can't listen to them all tracks, I mean for me its like half perfect and other half just good, like I would do part1 -cd1 of albums with my non skips and second part2 -cd2 with yeah maybe when I dont care that much about quality stuff 😅
Not songs that I hate, but tracks that I think an album could do without: 1. Want- Disturbed (The Sickness) 2. Sure Feels Right- Sixx AM (This Is Gonna Hurt) 3. Make Believe- Korn (Untouchables) 4. Given- Seether (Karma and Effect) 5. Menace- Five Finger Death Punch (American Capitalist) 6. Tonight The World Dies- Avenged Sevenfold (Nightmare) 7. Atmosphere- Shinedown (Us & Them) 8. Love Me or Leave Me- Three Days Grace (Human) 9. Skin to Bone- Linkin Park (Living Things) 10. Dead Girl Superstar- Rob Zombie (The Sinister Urge)
Some songs that are "WTF are they doing on this album?!?": Dissident Aggressor on South of Heaven (Slayer), Don't Try Suicide on The Game (Queen), Nico on Beyond Good and Evil (The Cult), Rivendell on Fly by Night (Rush), Shandi on Unmasked (Kiss), Sun Arise on Love it to Death (Alice Cooper), Goodbye to Romance on Blizzard of Ozz (Ozzy), On Top of the World & Roadhouse Blues on Infinite (Deep Purple), Beth on Destroyer (Kiss). And you're absolutely right FX on Vol. 4 is horrendous... You think you're old? Think about it: I saw Iron Maiden opening for Kiss in 1980... :-)
I think I prefer the Hyperdrive from Ziltoid alot more. Maybe because It's embedded in my brain from the amount of listens I gave that album before hearing the Addicted version. The atmosphere suits the song much better imo. 100% agree with the FX track, such a waste of time. I understand interludes in certain albums which lead into the next song but this just gave us nothing, annoying more than anything. Love the vids dude, have a great new year!
Damn...I can't remember any song , from an album i like, that I absolutely hate. I don't like many songs, but hate...only from artists I don't like. Btw, happy new year, metal bloke! 🤘
Oh hell yeah! I got one! Paradise by the Dashboard Lights By Meatloaf. I love the album Bat out of hell. But if I hear that song one more fucking time I'll rip my fucking ears off. It plays at every fucking wedding in America.
I think so far so good from Megadeth certainly has its strengths and probably is underrated. I actually think Megadeth would go on to do some decent covers, but those early ones were rough at best. Though I find I ain't supersticious to be worse just because I don't like the flow of that one the whole stop start thing. As for songs I don't like on albums I do, "You aint the first and Anything goes" by GNR come to mind. And thanks I now have that Type o song stuck in my head lol.
Wait, people have an issue with Asleep in the Deep from OMRTS? If there's one Mastodon song I can do without, it's The Creature Lives from The Hunter. The intro promises so much and the song delivers so little.
Interesting and pretty good list. Charlotte The Harlot I never skip, although admittedly the weakest track on an otherwise fantastic album. Funnily, I've stumbled upon another youtuber that really enjoys Charlotte The Harlot and yet doesn't like Running Free. I think they are both fine songs and I listen to them every time I put on that album. Running Free is certainly the better one. It's one of those songs that I listen to and think why the hell didn't it become some kind of massive radio hit. Because it definitely gives me that Rolling Stones hit single type of vibe. Very simple catchy rock and roll. Anyway for me a song I sometimes skip is "Touch of Evil" off of Judas Priest's Painkiller. It's not a terrible one, I used to hate it way more. It even has good moments that I end up appreciating more over time. But it just drags on slightly too long for what it has to offer in my opinion. A mild blemish on an otherwise perfect album. Still among my top favorites. Because the highs of amazing albums can impress me enough to make me forgive a single track that is on the weaker side. Another example that I'm sure many are already citing is Escape from Metallica's Ride The Lighting. Not even the band likes that one. I don't mind it too much, but I can see why it gets some hate. To me it just sticks out as a swore thumb 6 or 7/10 song an album packed with 9 and 10/10s. Ride The Lighting even after 40 years still holds up as one of the all time greats and may still be my favorite album of all time.
I feel the need to point out a few songs off of albums I love too! Black Sabbath - Paranoid : I find myself skipping over Paranoid and Iron Man. I do realize these are classic Sabbath tunes but the amount of times they're over played on the radio, it's made me quite bored with them. Motley Crue - Shout At The Devil : The song God Bless The Children Of The Beast is a beautiful piece but just doesn't fit with the tone of the rest of the album. Guns n' Roses - Appetite For Destruction : The song Welcome To The Jungle. Great song but another one that got extremely overplayed. I usually skip it. Cinderella - Long Cold Winter: The song Don't Know What You Got. Again, beautiful song but another one that got overplayed. Skip it.
"Things Beyond Things" at the end of Ocean Machine. I absolutely don't hate it and wouldn't usually skip it on a playthrough. Still, it pales a little against the rest of the album - especially immediately following "The Death of Music." No song on any album should follow that. In an ideal world, "Things..." would have been left off and Devin would've managed to include the properly recorded version of the album's title track - the demo of which is phenomenal.
My first Metallica album was the Black Album and I had it on repeat - I utterly ADORE it! However, I cannot stand "Nothing Else Matters" and I always tend to skip it. It feels so out of place with the heavy bangers on the album and both tracks on either side (Through The Never and Of Wolf and Man respectively) never get the love they deserve because they're in the shadow of an extremely popular yet utterly boring and out of place song. I can do without it. I'd rather hear Enter Sandman ten times in a row over this Happy New Year when it comes mate! From Bonnie Scotland!
“Gonna Get Close To You” off Rage for Order, something I consider pretty much a perfect record and maybe the first gothic metal record on top of that. “Letter to Dana” from Sonata Arctica’s debut definitely could have been kept in the oven a little longer. “Talk to Grandpa” from Rage’s Secrets in a Weird World. Supposed to be about speaking to the dead, but the song itself is dead. Like 3 songs off of Keeper of the Seven Keys 2 are just rancid. “We Got The Right” springs to mind first
Maiden has several poppy songs that I auto-skip on albums I love - Can I Play with madness, Wasted Years, The Wicker Man. The Thing That Should Not Be from Master of Puppets is another one that I end up skipping often. The self-titled track from Atrocity's Hallucinations is unique but a clusterfuck of a listen on what I think otherwise is a really good album.
I think the greatest example of this is Corners by IQ off their album The Wake anyone here reading this who happens to be into progressive rock and checks that album will immediately get why I'm saying this lol
5:15. "Fuck this Track"... The uninterrupted seething breathing that spews forth following that statement is brilliant. Like a Wolf prowling the fog swept wilderness. The look of utter contempt and annoyance. Great way to end the segment. 😀👍 I love lists like this, great topic. Im thinking of Soundgarden's masterful 'Superunknown". Otherwise incredible, save for the song 'Half". Following the doom laden beauty of '4th of July", "Half" is a short little eastern tinged oddity that for me is ruined by Bassist Ben Shepard's annoying wailing vocal and the song acts as an unnecessary bridge between 4th of July, and the epic closer, "Like Suicide".
I have close to ten tracks for my picks. The Beatles - Dig It - I am a fan of the Let It Be album, but the song was absolute drivel. Megadeth - Sweating Bullets - Countdown to Extinction is one of my favourite albums from them, but I can't stand the spoken word parts from Dave Mustaine anymore. I find them annoying for a track that is catchy and one of their most popular songs. Pantera - Walk - Don't hate it, but got SO burnt out from the overplay of the single. I wouldn't mind listening to it if I play VDoP all the way through. Black Sabbath - FX - I actually love Changes, but FX was recorded filler with delay of Tony's crucifix tapping the guitar strings. Oasis - Wonderwall - The same reasons like the Pantera one. Even though it is melodic and strong from its memorable sound, I had to put it in. Moring Glory is my favourite Oasis album, but I'm done hearing the song by itself. Fear Factory - Back The F*ck Up - To me, it was a distraction to the rest of the album. It was not awful, but it was unexpected in its cheesiness from the chorus. I do think Digimortal is very underrated. Slipknot - Vermillion Part 2 - I used to like the song, but I think Vermillion should've been left alone. It's a pretty nice ballad to continue the feel and deliver the lyrics around the imagery, but it doesn't connect with me like the rest of the Vol. 3 album. Metallica - Poor Twisted Me - I am a big fan of Load, but this track was always the one I could not get into. It didn't strike me as a great song. It's also one of my least favourites from the band as well.
Good Friends And A Bottle of Pills from Pantera's Far Beyond Driven is just genuinely annoying imo Edit - LOL and you happen to mention it just as I post this.
Do You Close Your Eyes from Rainbow - Rising. Perfect album otherwise. Iron Maiden - Invaders from The Number of the Beast and Back in the Village from Powerslave. Metallica - Sad But True from The Black Album. I actually really like the Black Album but this track just bores me. Judas Priest - Heavy Duty/Defenders of the Faith from Defenders of the Faith. Ends an amazing album with a thud.
my hero - the colour and the shape, foo fighters. Just a bland straight rock song with only the chorus hook standing out in the middle of a great album
First pick that comes to mind for me is Znöwhite - Baptized by Fire. Annoying, tedious track marring an otherwise fucking fantastic classic thrash record.
Born To Be Wild - The Cult (Electric) Can I Play With Madness -Iron Maiden (Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son) Changes - Black Sabbath (Volume 4) Seamus - Pink Floyd (Meddle) Poor Twisted Me - Metallica (Load)
As soon as I saw the title, I thought of Megadeth's cover of Anarchy in the UK. Absolutely dreadful. Maybe Dead Skin Mask on Seasons in the Abyss. I love love 99% of the song but the Mr Gein child's voice bit ruins it.
Warborne off of The Black Dahlia Murder's Nocturnal. Only blemish on their best album to me. Every other song is a certified banger full of twisted dark poetry. But this one is just blah and always gets a skip. Good Friends and a Bottle of Pills, yes. This song is terrible. I hate the vocal delivery by Phil here, and the lyrics are just dumb.
Absolutely cannot agree on El Phantasmo or Descent. Eh, more so on El Phantasmo. It's a fine song. I think the ordering could be a bit better. To me it would work better slotted in after Grease Pain and Monkey Brains, to bring the tempo up a bit before I, Zombie. Goddamn that album is so good. Descent? Nah, it's a pivotal song on the album. Thematically, and musically, it connects the two halve of the album perfectly. But when your next two tracks are Hi-Tech Hate and Freedom or Fire... yeah, let's just get to the ass kicking. Descent's one I usually skip unless one of the more chill tracks sounds good at the moment. Good Friend and a Bottle of Pills is the one I thought of before the video even started. Drums sound great. Bass is ominous. Then Phil opens his twathole. Goddammit, Phil, just shut up more. Luckily he totally got more poetic and subtle with his lyrical content by the time Trendkill came around. Absolutely nothing completely weird there. Nope. "WHoooOoooOoOOOOoOoOoOOoRrreZzzzzzz..." Well...
It's hard for me to really choose something like this because most albums that I love, I don't really hate or even dislike things on them. Most of the time it's things that got played out on the radio like Enter Sandman or Rooster...not bad songs I just heard them too much. WMA off of Pearl Jam's Vs is pretty terrible, at least nested within so many great songs. Seems like it should have been a b-side or something. Oh, I thought of one, but it's actually two: The title track(s) from Tool's 10,000 Days. I fuckin HATE those songs. Too "on the nose" lyrically, they drag on forever, and otherwise just really muddy up an otherwise top-tier follow up to Lateralus. Again, should have been b-sided or an EP or something. They just don't fit. I thought about this for quite a long time while writing this comment, trying to think of something metal, but the whole album is great with something I really dislike and the only thing that I can think of is Carry the Blessed Home off of Blind Guardian's A Twist in the Myth. I absolutely love that album and have hated that song since the first time I heard it. It's been a skip for almost 20 years now. Every. Single. Time. Turn the Page isn't great, either, but I don't skip it. Carry the Blessed Home is fucking awful. It's embarrassingly terrible.
One Megadeth cover I like is Cold Sweat. I think partly because Metallica's version of Whiskey In The Jar is cringe. So, to me, Cold Sweat is great by comparison. One of my favourite Slayer albums is World Painted Blood. The only song I don't like on it is The Human Strain. It's catchy but in an earworm way, rather than a "hooky" way, there's no guitar solo and it doesn't really go anywhere in a way that serves the album to my ears. I didn't like The More Things Change album at all. So much so that I didn't listen to any other machine head album released after that.
I fucking LOVE these boots! That songs just seethes with anger - and the shredding on this is so good. In general I don't like their covers but this is a n exception. I'll throw out a couple priest songs I hate... First is "last rose of summer" from Sin after Sin". It just tips the balance of one too many ballads on that album (alone with Diamonds and Rust and Hear come the Tears). Actually it may be a toss up with Here come the Tears. Why not have another banger like Sinner, Dissident Aggressor, or Starbreaker. I would love this album so much more with one less ballad. Fuck the last rose of summer. Fuck it to hell. Second song is United from British Steel. That song is the most idiotic pile of crap, and almost taints an otherwise perfect album.
I kind of dig Aunt Lisa. One song I absolutely despise (though I don't really love the album) is Nightwish's Bye Bye Beautiful. That's the cringiest thing ever. Cringier than Metallica's eyeliners in Load.
Eternal Soul Torture by Opeth, from Morningrise. Without a doubt the worst Opeth's song ever and I really love that album. Although to be fair it's part of a special edition. However, that song is unlistenable.
I agree with Megadeth and agree their covers are woeful, also they pick really odd songs to cover, also agree with Pantera, i didnt used to mind good friends but over time ive just found it a pretty immature and worthless waste of space in what is otherwise a very strong album.
Black Sabbath - Sabotage: Am I Going Insane? (Radio) My Dying Bride - 34.788%...Complete: Heroin Chic Type O Negative - Slow, Deep, and Hard: Der Untermensch Ashes You Leave - Desperate Existence: Momentary Eclipse of Hope At the Gates - With Fear I Kiss the Burning Darkness: Ever-Opening Flower Down - Down II: A Bustle in Your Hedgegrow: Flambeux's Jamming with Staug God Dethroned - Ravenous: Consumed by Darkness The Haunted - The Haunted: Forensick The Misfits - Legacy of Brutality: Come Back Napalm Death - Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism: Amoral Nile - Black Seeds of Vengeance: The Nameless City of the Accursed Obituary - World Demise: Don't Care Ozzy Osbourne - Blizzard of Oz: No Bone Movies TestAmenT - The New Order: Nobody's Fault.
Evil Fantasies off Killing Machine. Naff riff, can’t stand the vocals. Angel of Disease off Covenant. This song seriously drops the ball on an otherwise faultless album. Mistress for Christmas off Razor’s Edge.
Metallica - Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth) I’ve never been a fan of distortion on a bass guitar. No disrespect to Cliff and his personal style. Just not my taste. Kill ‘Em All if my favorite of their classic 80’s thrash albums, and it happens to contain my least favorite of their instrumental tracks. Hot Take: Cliff’s soloing in this track sounds equally as messy and random as Kerry King’s guitar solos.

"Charlotte the Harlot's" sequel, though. I think "22 Acacia Avenue" is an absolute banger.
Megadeth's debut selling is my business followed up by peace kills. Both great albums.
I love these top ten lists man. Also, your backdrop reminds me of American werewolf in London. I dig it🤘🏻
Looks like a great place to shoot a Black Metal music video😎🤘

I saw Sabbath at Ozzfest in 99 and they played Changes over the PA as the crowd was leaving.

That fog-enhanced setting is beautiful. Reminds me of the Sunset District in San Francisco.
I usually hate intro, interlude and outro tracks. Most of them are pointless filler tracks and they are there just to be skipped.

1, Starting controversial, but it's personal preference & that is 'Ride The Lightning' Metallica. I've never liked this song. It always felt lazy & dragged to me.

Hmm....I really love the "These Boots" cover. Little Dave's bass really bounces on that one.
My jaw dropped at (We Were) Electrocute
That's actually one of my favourite songs of that album.
So far so good..... was the best mary jane, 502, darkest hour and hook in mouth. Love it
Some songs that are "WTF are they doing on this album?!?": Dissident Aggressor on South of Heaven (Slayer), Don't Try Suicide on The Game (Queen), Nico on Beyond Good and Evil (The Cult), Rivendell on Fly by Night (Rush), Shandi on Unmasked (Kiss), Sun Arise on Love it to Death (Alice Cooper), Goodbye to Romance on Blizzard of Ozz (Ozzy), On Top of the World & Roadhouse Blues on Infinite (Deep Purple), Beth on Destroyer (Kiss).

A Touch of Evil from Painkiller got skipped so often that I ended up deleting it from my player altogether.
How the hell do you hate a Touch of Evil? Thats insane to me lmao.
ikr? Its fine to not like a song but to me it harkens back to Evil Fantasies or other songs like that
YOU'RE POSSESSING ME!
That’s wild. 😂
I always thought Metal Meltdown was the lowpoint of the album and it’s still an okay song. Touch Of Evil is a classic!
What?? That's insane. Especially considering it has one of the very best solos ever.
Damn...I can't remember any song , from an album i like, that I absolutely hate.
I don't like many songs, but hate...only from artists I don't like.
Btw, happy new year, metal bloke! 🤘

The band doesn't even like that song. I can't believe "Total Eclipse" was cut for that turd-of-a-song.
Happy Christmas thoughts!
Where are you when you do these walks looks like Dartmoor or North Yorkshire to me. Guessing Dartmoor by your accent
Interesting and pretty good list. Charlotte The Harlot I never skip, although admittedly the weakest track on an otherwise fantastic album.

It even has good moments that I end up appreciating more over time. But it just drags on slightly too long for what it has to offer in my opinion. A mild blemish on an otherwise perfect album. Still among my top favorites. Because the highs of amazing albums can impress me enough to make me forgive a single track that is on the weaker side. Another example that I'm sure many are already citing is Escape from Metallica's Ride The Lighting. Not even the band likes that one. I don't mind it too much, but I can see why it gets some hate. To me it just sticks out as a swore thumb 6 or 7/10 song an album packed with 9 and 10/10s. Ride The Lighting even after 40 years still holds up as one of the all time greats and may still be my favorite album of all time.
I feel the need to point out a few songs off of albums I love too!
Black Sabbath - Paranoid : I find myself skipping over Paranoid and Iron Man. I do realize these are classic Sabbath tunes but the amount of times they're over played on the radio, it's made me quite bored with them.
Motley Crue - Shout At The Devil : The song God Bless The Children Of The Beast is a beautiful piece but just doesn't fit with the tone of the rest of the album.
Guns n' Roses - Appetite For Destruction : The song Welcome To The Jungle. Great song but another one that got extremely overplayed. I usually skip it.
Cinderella - Long Cold Winter: The song Don't Know What You Got. Again, beautiful song but another one that got overplayed. Skip it.
"Things Beyond Things" at the end of Ocean Machine. I absolutely don't hate it and wouldn't usually skip it on a playthrough. Still, it pales a little against the rest of the album - especially immediately following "The Death of Music." No song on any album should follow that. In an ideal world, "Things..." would have been left off and Devin would've managed to include the properly recorded version of the album's title track - the demo of which is phenomenal.
My first Metallica album was the Black Album and I had it on repeat - I utterly ADORE it!
However, I cannot stand "Nothing Else Matters" and I always tend to skip it. It feels so out of place with the heavy bangers on the album and both tracks on either side (Through The Never and Of Wolf and Man respectively) never get the love they deserve because they're in the shadow of an extremely popular yet utterly boring and out of place song.
I can do without it. I'd rather hear Enter Sandman ten times in a row over this
Happy New Year when it comes mate! From Bonnie Scotland!
I found myself looking into the background watching for figures, lol
“Gonna Get Close To You” off Rage for Order, something I consider pretty much a perfect record and maybe the first gothic metal record on top of that.
“Letter to Dana” from Sonata Arctica’s debut definitely could have been kept in the oven a little longer.
“Talk to Grandpa” from Rage’s Secrets in a Weird World. Supposed to be about speaking to the dead, but the song itself is dead.
Like 3 songs off of Keeper of the Seven Keys 2 are just rancid. “We Got The Right” springs to mind first
Why do you always walk through a field while your filming ? 😅
Obituary - Chopped in Half
Sepultura - Inner Self
Fear Factory - Replica
One of my fave albums of all time , Priest and Sad Wings ...., but boy oh boy Epitaph is a bummer of a tune ,
I used to be confounded by Epitaph but I've grown to love and apreciate it especially as I've gotten into more genres than metal.
Long walks in the Fog - is great
Lügen is the only song I didn't like on Rammstein Zeit. I didn't like the auto tune on that one. But I didn't mind how it was used everywhere else.
See ya next year.
Maiden has several poppy songs that I auto-skip on albums I love - Can I Play with madness, Wasted Years, The Wicker Man.
The Thing That Should Not Be from Master of Puppets is another one that I end up skipping often.
The self-titled track from Atrocity's Hallucinations is unique but a clusterfuck of a listen on what I think otherwise is a really good album.
The Thing That Should Not Be is awful. So boring.
The Thing tsnb has great Lovecraftian lyrics, but it's so slow and plodding, a lot of Metallica fans hate it
I think the greatest example of this is Corners by IQ off their album The Wake anyone here reading this who happens to be into progressive rock and checks that album will immediately get why I'm saying this lol
The fog is very metal
5:15. "Fuck this Track"... The uninterrupted seething breathing that spews forth following that statement is brilliant. Like a Wolf prowling the fog swept wilderness. The look of utter contempt and annoyance. Great way to end the segment. 😀👍 I love lists like this, great topic. Im thinking of Soundgarden's masterful 'Superunknown". Otherwise incredible, save for the song 'Half". Following the doom laden beauty of '4th of July", "Half" is a short little eastern tinged oddity that for me is ruined by Bassist Ben Shepard's annoying wailing vocal and the song acts as an unnecessary bridge between 4th of July, and the epic closer, "Like Suicide".
I have close to ten tracks for my picks.
The Beatles - Dig It - I am a fan of the Let It Be album, but the song was absolute drivel.
Megadeth - Sweating Bullets - Countdown to Extinction is one of my favourite albums from them, but I can't stand the spoken word parts from Dave Mustaine anymore. I find them annoying for a track that is catchy and one of their most popular songs.
Pantera - Walk - Don't hate it, but got SO burnt out from the overplay of the single. I wouldn't mind listening to it if I play VDoP all the way through.
Black Sabbath - FX - I actually love Changes, but FX was recorded filler with delay of Tony's crucifix tapping the guitar strings.
Oasis - Wonderwall - The same reasons like the Pantera one. Even though it is melodic and strong from its memorable sound, I had to put it in. Moring Glory is my favourite Oasis album, but I'm done hearing the song by itself.
Fear Factory - Back The F*ck Up - To me, it was a distraction to the rest of the album. It was not awful, but it was unexpected in its cheesiness from the chorus. I do think Digimortal is very underrated.
Slipknot - Vermillion Part 2 - I used to like the song, but I think Vermillion should've been left alone. It's a pretty nice ballad to continue the feel and deliver the lyrics around the imagery, but it doesn't connect with me like the rest of the Vol. 3 album.
Metallica - Poor Twisted Me - I am a big fan of Load, but this track was always the one I could not get into. It didn't strike me as a great song. It's also one of my least favourites from the band as well.
What do you think of the band Stryper?
🤮
@stevenhenry5267 I knew you were a Wanker cause you love Lars.
Good Friends And A Bottle of Pills from Pantera's Far Beyond Driven is just genuinely annoying imo
Edit - LOL and you happen to mention it just as I post this.
Gangland on The number of the beast is my #1 skipper, simply can’t understand why they brought it along.
when i saw far beyond drive, i knew it was good friends..
Good song
Wow, decent is my favorite track on obsolete, lol.
I have a few songs i hate on albums i love. #1 is The thing that should not be on master of puppets.
Such a boring song
It has a lot of good Lovecraftian lyrics, but it's so slow and plodding, a lot of Metallica fans hate it
Hordes To Oblivion by Cathedral. Great band, great album, shyte song!
Iron Gland on Dirt by A in C. Just.... why? Wtf guys?
Do You Close Your Eyes from Rainbow - Rising. Perfect album otherwise.
Iron Maiden - Invaders from The Number of the Beast and Back in the Village from Powerslave.
Metallica - Sad But True from The Black Album. I actually really like the Black Album but this track just bores me.
Judas Priest - Heavy Duty/Defenders of the Faith from Defenders of the Faith. Ends an amazing album with a thud.
NO! Back in the Village is an awesome song and sadly largely ignored by the band
Mine is “Can I Play With Madness” On Maiden’s Seventh Son album. Well…. Not hate, but meh.
Suicidal Tendencies - I'll Hate You Better from the album The Art of Rebellion. Their worst song on their best album for mine.
my hero - the colour and the shape, foo fighters. Just a bland straight rock song with only the chorus hook standing out in the middle of a great album
I could not believe it when that song came out as a single and blew up. Weakest track on a fantastic record.
First pick that comes to mind for me is Znöwhite - Baptized by Fire. Annoying, tedious track marring an otherwise fucking fantastic classic thrash record.
Where is it you go walking?
Yeah, but it comes down to taste, really...
You know what they say: one man's garbage is another man's ungarbage.
Megadeth - Name your song
annoys the piss out of me
I think Megadeth did much better with their cover of the Pistols' "Problems."
Born To Be Wild - The Cult (Electric)
Can I Play With Madness -Iron Maiden (Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son)
Changes - Black Sabbath (Volume 4)
Seamus - Pink Floyd (Meddle)
Poor Twisted Me - Metallica (Load)
Completely agree with Can I play with Madness, could do without it live as well.
Changes is great
As soon as I saw the title, I thought of Megadeth's cover of Anarchy in the UK. Absolutely dreadful. Maybe Dead Skin Mask on Seasons in the Abyss. I love love 99% of the song but the Mr Gein child's voice bit ruins it.
Once Solemn from Draconian Times for me
Old man yells at very low cloud. 😉
Warborne off of The Black Dahlia Murder's Nocturnal.
Only blemish on their best album to me. Every other song is a certified banger full of twisted dark poetry. But this one is just blah and always gets a skip.
Good Friends and a Bottle of Pills, yes. This song is terrible. I hate the vocal delivery by Phil here, and the lyrics are just dumb.
I love aunt Lisa by mastodon. :(
Agree with Pantera
Absolutely cannot agree on El Phantasmo or Descent. Eh, more so on El Phantasmo. It's a fine song. I think the ordering could be a bit better. To me it would work better slotted in after Grease Pain and Monkey Brains, to bring the tempo up a bit before I, Zombie. Goddamn that album is so good.
Descent? Nah, it's a pivotal song on the album. Thematically, and musically, it connects the two halve of the album perfectly. But when your next two tracks are Hi-Tech Hate and Freedom or Fire... yeah, let's just get to the ass kicking. Descent's one I usually skip unless one of the more chill tracks sounds good at the moment.
Good Friend and a Bottle of Pills is the one I thought of before the video even started. Drums sound great. Bass is ominous. Then Phil opens his twathole. Goddammit, Phil, just shut up more. Luckily he totally got more poetic and subtle with his lyrical content by the time Trendkill came around. Absolutely nothing completely weird there. Nope.
"WHoooOoooOoOOOOoOoOoOOoRrreZzzzzzz..."
Well...
I would say Auslander by Rammstein from the Deutchland album. Great album, but such a meh song.
I know its Rammstein and not Deutschland that's the single.
Charlotte the Harlot is fucking great!! It's fun
Clandestiny: Emperor Of Sand. A real turd on a pile of diamonds.
Dude, that song rules. Show Yourself is the real culprit
@@MikePitt84nah…Word to the Wise is the dud on EoS
It's hard for me to really choose something like this because most albums that I love, I don't really hate or even dislike things on them. Most of the time it's things that got played out on the radio like Enter Sandman or Rooster...not bad songs I just heard them too much.
WMA off of Pearl Jam's Vs is pretty terrible, at least nested within so many great songs. Seems like it should have been a b-side or something.
Oh, I thought of one, but it's actually two: The title track(s) from Tool's 10,000 Days. I fuckin HATE those songs. Too "on the nose" lyrically, they drag on forever, and otherwise just really muddy up an otherwise top-tier follow up to Lateralus. Again, should have been b-sided or an EP or something. They just don't fit.
I thought about this for quite a long time while writing this comment, trying to think of something metal, but the whole album is great with something I really dislike and the only thing that I can think of is Carry the Blessed Home off of Blind Guardian's A Twist in the Myth. I absolutely love that album and have hated that song since the first time I heard it. It's been a skip for almost 20 years now. Every. Single. Time. Turn the Page isn't great, either, but I don't skip it. Carry the Blessed Home is fucking awful. It's embarrassingly terrible.
I love the Rammstein album Liebe Ist Für Alle Da apart from the song Pussy its just so cheesy
One Megadeth cover I like is Cold Sweat. I think partly because Metallica's version of Whiskey In The Jar is cringe. So, to me, Cold Sweat is great by comparison. One of my favourite Slayer albums is World Painted Blood. The only song I don't like on it is The Human Strain. It's catchy but in an earworm way, rather than a "hooky" way, there's no guitar solo and it doesn't really go anywhere in a way that serves the album to my ears.
I didn't like The More Things Change album at all. So much so that I didn't listen to any other machine head album released after that.
I fucking LOVE these boots! That songs just seethes with anger - and the shredding on this is so good. In general I don't like their covers but this is a n exception. I'll throw out a couple priest songs I hate... First is "last rose of summer" from Sin after Sin". It just tips the balance of one too many ballads on that album (alone with Diamonds and Rust and Hear come the Tears). Actually it may be a toss up with Here come the Tears. Why not have another banger like Sinner, Dissident Aggressor, or Starbreaker. I would love this album so much more with one less ballad. Fuck the last rose of summer. Fuck it to hell. Second song is United from British Steel. That song is the most idiotic pile of crap, and almost taints an otherwise perfect album.
I don't mean to alarm you but there was something following you maybe, probably
I kind of dig Aunt Lisa. One song I absolutely despise (though I don't really love the album) is Nightwish's Bye Bye Beautiful. That's the cringiest thing ever. Cringier than Metallica's eyeliners in Load.
Eternal Soul Torture by Opeth, from Morningrise. Without a doubt the worst Opeth's song ever and I really love that album. Although to be fair it's part of a special edition. However, that song is unlistenable.
Were Wolf Country
I agree with Megadeth and agree their covers are woeful, also they pick really odd songs to cover, also agree with Pantera, i didnt used to mind good friends but over time ive just found it a pretty immature and worthless waste of space in what is otherwise a very strong album.
Black Sabbath - Sabotage: Am I Going Insane? (Radio)
My Dying Bride - 34.788%...Complete: Heroin Chic
Type O Negative - Slow, Deep, and Hard: Der Untermensch
Ashes You Leave - Desperate Existence: Momentary Eclipse of Hope
At the Gates - With Fear I Kiss the Burning Darkness: Ever-Opening Flower
Down - Down II: A Bustle in Your Hedgegrow: Flambeux's Jamming with Staug
God Dethroned - Ravenous: Consumed by Darkness
The Haunted - The Haunted: Forensick
The Misfits - Legacy of Brutality: Come Back
Napalm Death - Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism: Amoral
Nile - Black Seeds of Vengeance: The Nameless City of the Accursed
Obituary - World Demise: Don't Care
Ozzy Osbourne - Blizzard of Oz: No Bone Movies
TestAmenT - The New Order: Nobody's Fault.
Evil Fantasies off Killing Machine. Naff riff, can’t stand the vocals. Angel of Disease off Covenant. This song seriously drops the ball on an otherwise faultless album. Mistress for Christmas off Razor’s Edge.
Metallica - Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth)
I’ve never been a fan of distortion on a bass guitar. No disrespect to Cliff and his personal style. Just not my taste.
Kill ‘Em All if my favorite of their classic 80’s thrash albums, and it happens to contain my least favorite of their instrumental tracks.
Hot Take: Cliff’s soloing in this track sounds equally as messy and random as Kerry King’s guitar solos.
AUNT LISA IS THE WORST BRO!
FNM - Be agressive
I like it. It makes me laugh. That kiddie chorus!! 😂😂
Wrong
