Top 200+ Overlooked Albums
|
This list aims to be the counterpart to the Metal Storm Top 200 Albums (plus a few extras).
If you discover a new band or already like any of ones here, please give this list a thumbs up and/or leave a comment so we can get these overlooked gems in front of more people. Criteria: • Fewer than 200 votes • High-quality musicianship • 1 album per band Alphabetical order. My other lists: My Favourite Albums (ordered & rated) My Favourite EPs (also ordered & rated) So I Heard You Like Wintersun... (Time II find new bands) The Most Overrated Albums on MS (trigger warning)

Nice to see Day into Night and Nocturnal Silence  I recommend Misleading Evil (2017) by Hazzerd - it's new Canadian thrash metal

I recommend Wraith. For example their debut Heed the Warning

Written by F3ynman2000 on 15.10.2021 at 18:37 Great recommendation! Although I don't think I can class HTW as an album given its 20min runtime (anything under 30min is an EP in my books). I've added it to my Top EPs list.

Damn, I never realized so many classics had such a few amount of ratings, definitely agree with several of the picks here!
---- An album rated 6 is an album I enjoyed

Written by doez on 09.12.2021 at 20:44 I know right. The top 200 list certainly isn't the be-all and end-all. So many gems to be found at below 200 votes!

I've got another recommendation for you and anyone else who's interested: Into Eternity by Desultory I find it sounds similar to The Nocturnal Silence. Both are overlooked masterpieces of death metal from 1993!

Written by F3ynman2000 on 21.12.2021 at 05:13 Nice find! I see what you mean about sounding similar to TNS. Added to the list.

I've just discovered Sarcófago | The Laws Of Scourge. It only has 118 votes, but is some really nice death metal from 1991  Check it out if you haven't already listened to it before

Written by F3ynman2000 on 26.01.2022 at 15:56 I've heard this album. I like it but not enough for it to make this list unfortunately (8/10 IMO).

Some are overlooked indeed, some are just not that known, some are obscure (or at least unknown to me).
---- I thought the two primary purposes for the internet were cat memes and overreactions.

It's mind boggling how some of these albums have so few ratings!! I don't know all of them, but in my opinion, Defying The Rules, Delerium Veil, Tarot, In Control, Ghosts and Forbidden World are insanely good albums! Some are masterpieces within their respective genres!
