So Metal Hammer made a 50 years of Metal Playlist and it inspired me to make one of my own. Note that theirs starts at 1969 and goes to 2018, mine starts at 1970 and goes to 2019. Anyway, I'm wondering what people would include in their own playlist. Rule is exactly one song for each year in whatever span you use, the span must be 50 consecutive years, each song has to be considered metal by some standard (hard rock is okay for the early years, though I really don't get why Metal Hammer thinks Coven is metal), and no band can appear more than once. Anyone else down for it?

One song a year, I can't even decide my favorite albums of the year. Definitely a fun idea though. I'd need to have like nine honorable mentions at least for every one song I chose.

23.10.2019 - 09:49 Written by Troy Killjoy on 23.10.2019 at 06:32 I started with the albums, and then selected a song from each album, otherwise my picks would have been at least slightly different. Yeah, it took some time to do, and some of the years were very hard to settle a pick on. If doing the whole thing is too much work, you could just look at the existing lists and yell at the entries you most violently disagree with.

List them in the thread here, or make a proper list on the list function?

31.10.2019 - 23:39 Written by musclassia on 31.10.2019 at 19:09 Yeah the hardest part for me was choosing which year from the 70's I would use for Black Sabbath and Judas Priest haha. Quote: Awesome picks. In fact, they all came up while I was doing mine, but narrowing it down to one song is pretty impossible, haha. (I can't even pick my favourite song from The Gathering Wilderness, let alone from that year)

02.11.2019 - 21:55 Written by Zap on 31.10.2019 at 23:39 Yeah those early years are a bit rough, Sabbath, Priest and Dio projects aside (I couldve probably used Rush but wasn't sure whether they qualified). And yeah I was torn between using Primordial and BTBAM in 2005 or 2007, very tough - feel bad leaving out As Rome Burns, but most songs from The Gathrring Wilderness are worthy. Almost out The Golden Spiral, but Coffin Ships was my 'breakthrough' song for Primordial so it does have a special place in my heart.

04.11.2019 - 09:38 Written by TarannonFalastur on 03.11.2019 at 13:43 Even if they weren't more metal, it shows there was more going on in the scene at the time than just the Unholy Trinity. Budgie is considered by many to be the heaviest band of their day though, their influence on speed metal is critical, so I fundamentally don't agree with your claim. The 70s may be hard to find stuff, but that does not apply later on. There is no reason to have seven different Devin Townsend songs unless you're strictly doing what you find to be the best songs for each year, but that's not what the challenge is. As good as he is it really doesn't make for an interesting list, as diverse as he is it's still one man. Two bands being featured a couple times is passable, but from looking at how you ended filling out your list I think I'm justified in placing that rule. Metal has evolved a lot since the 90s. Most forms of metalcore including melodic metalcore and deathcore didn't form until then, and djent and blackgaze also didn't come onto the scene yet. You don't need to include any bands from any specific subgenres, but if metal wasn't still evolving there would be no point in doing a 50 years of metal playlist.

Written by TarannonFalastur on 04.11.2019 at 11:35 Nitpicking would be complaining about the people who couldn't find a unique thing for ever year in the 70s, while you didn't even try to follow the rule because you found it stupid without even considering why I included it in the first place. I was just using the same format Metal Hammer used, you're the one trying to bend it to accommodate numerous instances of the same band, and for multiple bands as well. Regarding DT specifically, his range is wide, yes, but he also kinda blends all his influences together. It's all clearly Devin Townsend, no matter what flavor it is. The evolution of DT hardly represents the evolution of metal in general. No one wants to read another stupid rant about metalcore and every other ongoing trend, it just makes you sound like a pretentious old fart. If you don't like it, don't include it, you found plenty of other bands to include even if you did repeat a few. Regardless, the idea of devolution is completely nonsensical, just because you don't like doesn't mean it wasn't innovative, and plenty of people disagree with you. By your same reasoning, I could argue thrash and death metal were devolutions by replacing vocal melody with speed and distortion, and are just garbage genres for edgelords. It's not like you actually could make djent with older technology either as it's dependent on modern production techniques, though I'd argue you very much could record extreme metal with 70s recording technology as the production is less essential to the genre. The notion that technology hasn't improved is blatantly wrong, it's just the most the innovations have been with software rather than hardware, and information networks have also changed the scene. It's not like hardware hasn't been improving though, it's just that with the raise of digital audio software is much more important. Not that improving technology was ever a necessity for artistic advancement, people can come up with new ideas for existing technology. With generalized digital audio there is a ton of room to explore. There is more experimentation in metal now than ever, it's objectively more diverse than it was in the late 80s and early 90s. You're just suffering from hindsight bias and dismissing everything that doesn't conform to the tastes that you had already developed. This thread is for the challenge. You are under no obligation to participate, but if you aren't, then why even bother replying? If you're going to have a shitty attitude when I explain why it is the way that it is, then you can just leave. Frankly, people who complain about hipsters despite acting like hipsters themselves and feel the need to litter their comments with juvenile name-calling are the worst. It's not funny, it's not insightful, it's just obnoxious. Metal Hammer is lowest common denominator trash, but people like you do far more to give metal a bad name.
