This was a really fun watch, please do more videos like this. I remember getting Roots Bloody Roots and thinking that it was pretty good, especially the title track (like yourself). But haven't listenede to the album for many years - I'll give it a go now.

Unique idea James, I've enjoyed this video. I never had issues with 'Ram It Down', never saw it as a masterpiece either. Just a solid JP record! Sepultura's 'Roots' I don't have in my music collection, not even on cd. Average is what comes to mind, couple of good tracks for me. Same vision for their 2003 album: Roorback. Cheers James! 🤘🙂

January 31st, 1991 was my 8th birthday. I got Flesh and Blood on cd. 33+ years later I'm looking at it right now with the rest of my 3,000+ cds. This was my first heavy metal album. I STILL love it. He's right. There's 14 tracks. You can skip about 4 of them and the 10 you're left with makes for a pretty great rocker of an album.

Bit late i know, but i often watch videos way after they've been first put on here. But anyway, gotta have to put a comment here on finding a gem of a song. Which is what i love about watching reviews and the like. I never heard the album all the way through, but Flesh and Blood, after watching this, i decided to give it a listen. Oh my, Valley of lost Souls!!! I like catchy riffs, and this had to be one of the best i ever heard. Ok, it's new to me, and i might tire of it in time, lol....but hell, it's a scorcher! So thanks Mr Boulder : ) And no doubt i'll be trawling through your vids to find more : ) Great stuff!!

st anger in the background lol

Good to hear your thoughts on the albums again James. it's interesting how opinions change over time. Yeah it's hard to say negative things against Waters, but even the best sometimes put out some below par albums. Always liked Ram it down and Roots, yeah they can be improved but they're not terrible.

'Incarnated Solvent Abuse' is my favourite Carcass song and with the heaviest riff ever made!. Remember the seeing the video in Headbangers Ball and was my first introduction into Death Metal.

That was a fun list. That said (and I’ve seen lots of your other videos) I can’t believe you even owned ‘These days’ in the first place, never mind re-visited it!

Definitely a good idea, my video has vanished i must've deleted it and i cant remember what was on my list. Some of these i don't know but the ones i do im only lukewarm on them too.

Blood Red Skies is a Priest classic

You had me cracking up over your review of Remains 😆 I actually really like Tricks And Traps, I Want and Reaction, and I think No Love, Never and Sexecution are pretty good as well. Definitely my least favorite Annihilator album but I don’t think it’s awful lol

'Roots' is a great album. Never understood the hate for it.

Roots has always been a bit of a guilty pleasure for me, great album. Take a look in the mirror by Korn is another one like that.

Nice idea for a video mate I recently re listened to the judas priest back catalogue and I really enjoy a lot of ram it down as well point of entry is another I came around on

Hey buddy. Great redo of sorts with the terrible albums. It’s always a funny thing how you (general statement) can come around on a record you hated. I went back and rewatchEd my version, and my mind hasn’t changed one bit 😂😂😂😂. Cheers ole boy

The worst album in my collection is Queensrÿche - Dedicated to Chaos. I only own it because I tend to be a completist, and I’m a fan of much of their work, but I’ve listened to that album in its entirety only once. Yeah, it’s that bad.

Sepultura roots has always been my favourite sepultura album since 1996.

Hi James!!! this was a cool one to watch and heard your thoughts about all of them who have changed and the ones that remains the same...... A couple i have not heard yet like that awkward (artwork) Exodus album, i don't think that Twisted is all that bad, Ram it Down is and ok one, Bon Jovi thanks, but no thanks.... cheers and be well

Cool you went back to this video and done a follow up James! It's interesting to hear your opinion has changed on a few albums too. Reek of putrefaction I haven't listened to, but Symphonies of sickness I did enjoy. Kinda starting to wanna try more Grindcore now. I might enjoy that Anaal Nathrakh album if it has a little bit of Metalcore on it, didn't realise you were such a hater of Metalcore! Considering Trivium have some Metalcore albums and you like them. Need to check out those Exodus and Sepultura albums, interesting to hear you like the Sepultura album more now. I didn't like Against so I'm not sure if I would enjoy it. Mad to think Municipal Waste can do wrong! Breathe grease and title track are fantastic, but it's true I don't remember the rest. I'll have to check it out again. Great follow up mate 😊🤘🏻

Queensryche - Dedicated to chaos OMG! Dokken - Shadowlife (Why Why Why 1) Metallica - St. Wanker LA Guns - American Shitcore (Why Why Why 2) Lynch Mob - Suck this! Lita Ford - Wicked Wonderland Scorpions - Eye to eye (Why Why Why 3 ?!?) and 2 you were mentioning I almost forgot: Dee Snider - We are the ones... Annihilator - Remains So I have only 9; 7 in my head and 2 you remeind me I had and I think they are all gone out of my collection... luckily... 😀

Flesh & Blood was my very first hard rock album I owned. I hated it and gave it away. Many years later I decided to give it a go and dug it. Same with Force of Habit. Both are still in my possession and I enjoy them more for sentimental reasons.

Ram it Down had some good tracks!! Heavy Metal was pretty good!!

Flesh and Blood is a classic. Few too many songs on there but its a solid 8/10 for me. CCs solos on this album are superb especially Life Goes On solo. Bon Jovi's These Days, well I hated it when it came out in 95 (I was 20) but over time its my 2nd favourite after New Jersey. Its dark and I dont think people expect this kind of album from them. I think the song you are referring to is All I want is everything that sounds like Sign of the Times - its a killer live as well

I have " Flesh and Blood " in my collection. I do not remember hating it , I will find it to re-listen to as I cannot remember the songs. I can remember this you-tube thread from a while ago, and probably have plenty of albums that could apply. I need a big record purge in 2024!.

Roots is one of the only few albums I have ever traded in. I thought the opening track was shading though ! On a separate note, what are your thoughts on st anger? (Can see it in the background) IIRC , you like it ?

I like that Volume 8 album too. Anaal Nathrakh are pretty consistent. Singer is called Dave Cunt.. great band. Reek Of Putrefaction is way better than I remember. Absolute filth. Symphonies is better though. Force of Habit is a strange one. Bizarre covers on it too. Shit artwork too. I got bored of Municipal Waste about four albums in. I never liked Annihilator I really like Roots, skme bangers on it. "Spit" rules. I could never hear Nu Metal in it either. Grest video James!

Great video 👍

Good to hear your thoughts on those albums. I'm not really into Poison overall, but I've always liked "Valley of Lost Souls". 8'm okay with the songs themselves on 'Reek of Putrefaction', but the production is awful IMO. Knowing that Exodus put out good stuff now, I can enjoy 'Force of Habit' for what it is. I haven't heard that Dee Snider album, but I don't really like the first one. I used to have it, but decided to get rid of it so someone who actually likes it can enjoy it. I've always liked 'Come Out And Play'. I never really had a problem with their cover song, although it does seem out of place. Ooh... 'Remains' - not good. Welcome to Club Roots :D

Luckily I don't have any terrible albums in my collection 😂😂😂😂

I read a review of Reek Of Putrefaction in an old mag. The reviewer summed it up by saying you might as well empty an ashtray onto your turntable and play that. I like the album but I can't disagree with that statement.

I think you forgot to put the album in your background in your list : Metallica - St.Anger

You are too Metal bro

I thought flesh & blood was poisons second best album , Native Tongue is my favorite of theirs. But I thought flesh & blood took what poison did and fine tuned it. The guitar solo in Life Goes On is one of my favorite guitar solos to come out the hair band era. Overall I thought it was solid.

so when you did the original video 2 years you didn't show Turbo you mentioned at the end of the video that you like Turbo!!! what made you not show Kiss Un Masked is that a terrible album or ok? what about Ac/dc - Fly on the wall? Van Halen Balannce terrible or an ok album? Iron Maiden - Dance with death? Queen - Hot space? are these albums terrible?

I believe Reek of putrefaction was the album Jeff Walker described as “a musical abortion “

"Ram It Down" is such a decent album, but the best thing about It is that showed the band what not to do before "Painkiller". "Roots" is Sepultura's Black Album. If you're so interested in percussive amazonian music, make another project with another name, but don't spoil your legendary career with that.

Looks like your new meds are really working for you 😀

Bon Jovi and Poison , never in my wheelhouse . I've diluted the shit in my collection over the years . Keep on rockin' James , cheers 😉

8:18 I recall a black afro carribean girl from South East London buying that album off me on Ebay. I pondered why until I guessed she probably thought it was the Bob Marley Exodus project. The album artwork does suggest that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

so my High school won a state championship I was with the team and familys tonight. I love the picture of come out and play!!! can you say classic!!!! Aknowagroth Poison Bon Jovi Carcass Exodus Municipal Waste Dee Snider Twisted Sister Anhilator , Judas Priest.

That Annihilator album is pretty bad save a couple of songs. Force of Habit by Exodus us my gateway into Exodus so that's why I like it so much. Great video!!

Anaal Nathrakh are a good band and I think that Desideratum gets a bit over hated. Carcass Reek of Putrefaction does it's job in giving you disgusting, gross-out, goregrind despite it's shitty production. I think if you go into it with no high expectations; it can be enjoyable. Excellent video James.

No one with a discriminating taste would ever buy a Poison or Bon Jovi album.

I see St. Anger clear as day in the back there…. lol Bob Rock on bass. Didn’t Rob ONLY play on the bonus live DVD that came with the original CD. Ahahaha

If you have wood paneling and shag carpet on your steps in 2024 you’re not allowed to say “dumb cliche’ 80’s metal”. 😂

Great vid Mr.B, the ones that stand out for me from your list, Poison, when I was 18 I loved Open up & say ahh, didn't take to Flesh & blood at all, to be fair I can't listen to Open up anymore, I play guitar which gives you an appreciation of who is good, bad & average, CC Deville (to keep it respectful) isn't a guy I enjoy listening to. Bon Jovi, These days, agreed pal, was the start of the house wife rock era for the band, you could see it coming with a couple of tracks on Keep the faith, Hey god & Damned, then forget the rest for me, anything from the first album to Faith is great, Carcass yep a messy album, Heartwork is much better, really well produced that album with crushing riffs, heavy as sh*t for 1993! Exodus, I love this band but I'm with you on Force, there are a handful of tracks here but I never go to this CD, I'm also not a fan of the production on this, too dull & muddy for my ears, I usually go for Fabulous Disaster if I fancy early Exodus, later Exodus is also awesome, Annihilator, yes Waters is brilliant, love the Alice, Never Never & Set the world albums, after that the song lyrics started to get silly, the riffs were still wicked but I thought the band suffered from daft lyrics & really needed a good long term frontman/singer, someone who had/has real stage presence & a killer voice, Of course this is just my opinion. Nobody is right or wrong, just preference. Super video pal, keep them coming bruv. Cheers

Whaaat?! Reek is a murky classic. A 1000 bands in Mexico alone formed because of the album, all with better production, all useless. That's one of the Anaal Nathrakh albums I don't know very well. Love 'em, but they got a bit samey. Roots definitely has its moments. I remember thinking it dragged on for way too long. Do this again in 6 month's time & you'll be singing along to Reek. Well, gurgling along at least.

My online streaming service keeps putting MUNICIPAL WASTE in my automatic mixes when the albums I have selected finish and it automatically go's to a an AI mix. Why? I dont like them. I have never selected a song by them or even looked them up online for any information. Are they a favored band for some reason? I dont hate em or anything, I just liked D.R.I just fine the first time around. I guess that is what the " skip" feature is for.

Not a glam fan at all, own a few classics I grew up with - Cinderella, Skid Row, Extreme, David Lee Roth - that's it. Reek of Putrefaction is still better than Swansong lol - I like the grindy under produced sound - Necroticism is still my favourite though. I actually have always liked that Exodus album, very under rated in my opinion. Annihilator is not that bad really, considering it's a one man project. Roots is just fucking shit - Sepultura was dead to me when this came out.

Where is your bannister?

I prefer REEK over HEARTWORK. Been listening to Carcass since 1989 or 1990 though, so...

Come out and play as to be thy best album that twisted sister ever did. Love is for suckers is an album that I hate. Ok ram it down might of been much better, but is a good album from priest.

I hate that crap album that's starring at me this whole video. St.anger

Went to Bon Jovi first tour walked out after 10 minutes luckily didn't pay for ticket 😂😂😂

Nostalgia is painful 😂😂

winger is better than poison on making rock ballads??? life goes on has a very good guitar solo.......but I agree with you bon jovi is the worst rock band...poser pop rock band

Sorry man but those von jovi and poison albums really suck

Why do you own albums you think are terrible? I only buy music I actually enjoy.

Bon Jovi meh 😂😂😂😂😂

Metalcore sucks kids metal nu metal bla bla sh*t

Replace ballads with the word bllxs

That St Anger record better be on the list

Not a poison fan, I didn’t like this album and look what the cat, open up was okay and native tongue was really good.

would you like to rank slipknot?
