Comparing heavy metal with any form of extreme metal is silly btw. Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, and Black Sabbath just don't belong in this discussion. Also, google can do much better than the first 20 random ppl who reply to this thread, just google: "best death metal albums [or bands if you prefer]" then "best black metal albums," then "best thrash metal albums." You'll learn so much more than you have here. BEA doesn't know extreme metal. Or rap for that matter. Why would those who rank all time classics against each other know anything about Morbid Angel? You only have so much time to listen to music and frankly, the guys here spend it more wisely. Not dissing.


Well considering this was a best "metal" album in general tournament, Priest/Maiden/Sabbath etc. absolutely do belong. While they may not be "extreme metal" (which was not the subject of the tournament) they are still considered integral parts of metal's history, and to suggest otherwise is just pure ignorance.

If we did a best extreme metal tournament, a best death metal tournament, or a best black metal tournament, or whatever, then sure, they wouldn't be included. But this was a general metal tournament in the efforts of having mass appeal (and participation).

And despite that, you'll notice that the top 4 winners consist of a black metal album, a doom metal album, and a thrash metal album, so the genres were relatively varied.
