Reading through the comments section throughout these pages you would be mistaken if you thought it was an anti-metal site given the huge amount of negativity. "Oh I'm a fan of this band, really, but this new albums shit"; "This band should stop making albums and play their old stuff" blah blah blah. This list compiles albums that are a prime target; the over-sized bulls-eye; a band bashing bandwagon for trolls. Too bad 'cause I thoroughly enjoy them. Sure there are metal albums I don't like but why whinge? It's about time this site had some positivism thrown in. If you hate these records Calvin Harris has some Special K he'd like to share with you.

1.Metallica - Re-Load

2.Megadeth - Risk

3.KISS - Creatures Of The Night

4.Metallica - Load

5.Korn - Issues

As if my street-cred wasn't in the depths already, I submit to you the albums I undoubtedly get the most shit for listening to. There are a few on here that won't leave me beaten in a back alley, and I question the application of this genre to those albums. Nonetheless, all of the groups represented here were at least at one time associated with the 2nd Voldemort of metal. Anyone who says they don't have at least one of these albums is a filthy liar.
