I don't see repetitive riffs and news samples on that Machine Head track as filler; it's more mood music to me. The fact that the song sounds that different adds variety to the album. The riffs are intentionally repetitive and looped to serve the mood of the song, which is different from the rest of the album and adds variety. And Cosmic Sea is great, too. I like it when bands add things like keyboards, ambience, experimentation - color your album with different shit for variety! It's more interesting than like, Panzer Division Marduk which is just mostly a blast beat from start to finish.

The Testament cover of Nobody's Fault would have been better if they didn't try so hard to make it sound like a Testament Thrash song. It successfully came across like a joke song, still not quite on the level of Six Feet Under covering Judas Priest - Painkiller, but a Hard Rock 1970s style song just doesn't translate well into Thrash Metal. Heathen covering Sweet - Set Me Free worked much better. Chuck Billy shouting through what was originally a melodic pre chorus just gave Nobody's Fault a joke vibe. Lots of Thrash Metal bands at the time were doing songs even further removed from Thrash than Aerosmith was , but to greater success. Such as Flotsam and Jetsam - Saturday Nights Alright For Fighting, Xentrex - Ghostbusters, and Intruder - I'm Not Your Stepping Stone. It worked better because of the humor in making Radio hit pop songs into Thrash, but turning a deep cut Hard Rock track into a Thrash song is a waste of time unless it's done in somewhat it's original style. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath by Anthrax while not as strong as the original at least didn't sound over done with Thrash elements that didn't originally exist in the song

As soon as you brough up Demanufacture album by Fear Factory, the first song I thought of was A Therapy for Pain. "Tried so hard" to like the song, but it's so boring. It just drags for almost 10 minutes and it sounds like the same riff over and over and does nothing interesting. Only song I don't care for on Demanufacture. Otherwise, the album kicks ass. I jam the title track and Replica during workouts constantly. Overall, enjoyed the list. A couple I had were off Awake by Dream Theater, I never have liked Space-Dye Vest. I tried to like it and listen to it enough. I can't get into that song. I know it has its fans, but I am not one of them. Off of The Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden, I never liked the opener, Invaders. It's so weird that a killer record begins the record with what I think is the throwaway track. I'm sure people disagree but I don't like that song. Definitely the weakest on Number of the Beast, imo.

Necrotic Nick- For years, I have given A Therapy for Pain so many chances and I still can't get into it. Such a brilliant album up until that closer. I honestly love pretty much all of Awake but there are some tracks I like less on there. Man, Invaders is catching a lot of heat on here. I like that song except for the lazier than hell chorus. Everything else about it I think is solid.

I love topics like this. I kind of agree with the cover of Nobody's Fault, although I wouldn't say it's necessarily terrible. Just a track that is kind of there, and quite an obvious label pushback. The others that I've heard in this video I'm sort of impartial to, and tbh I kinda like the bassline in Dawn Patrol 🤣 I'm struggling to think of others off the top of my head, but I'd say the one Iron Maiden track from their classic period I truly do not get on with is Invaders from Number of the Beast. I don't know what it is with that track, maybe the weird key change in the chorus, but I just don't like it! I even like Can I Play With Madness, and I think the other sucky Maiden singles came on sucky Maiden albums, but Invaders is an opening track that I just don't get along with

Necrotic Nick- Both Nobody's Fault and Dawn Patrol gave me the same kinda feeling. They both felt unnecessary and didn't compliment the album very well at all. The cover feels tacked on and they didn't sound very into it on the recording and Dawn Patrol is just kind of a WTF moment with a descent bassline. I think if both were not on those albums they're even better. With the song Invaders, the only thing I don't like about that song is the lazy chorus. The rest of it is fine to me. I think I had more of an issue with Die With Your Boots On on Piece of Mind for being an even more repetitive chorus.

@@thrallsofmetal Nick, first of all, I LOVE the channel and it's furthering my current death metal obsession. I just discovered it about a month ago or so and can't get enough. To Husker Du, I can't recommend them enough. Any of their records from 1983's Metal Circus up to and including their 1987 swan song Warehouse: Songs and Stories are worth your time. My favorites are Zen Arcade and Flip Your Wig (mentioned above). That said, I don't mind "The Baby Song." It's cute and thankfully short. I would 100% nominate "How to Skin a Cat" from New Day Rising as otherwise ruining a perfect album, though! They weren't a metal band, of course, though Bob Mould did play a Flying V back then, but Tommy Lee does mention wanting to tour with them (and Iggy Pop) in the late '80s as opposed to Warrant and Whitesnake in The Dirt. Oh and hard but respectful disagree on "Eye of the Beholder" but couldn't agree more on "Am I Going Insane." I've never liked that song and I consider Sabbath to be one of my all-time favorites. I need to pick up Anno Domini. Pardon this scattershot comment. I'll have to relisten to the rest, particularly those Death and Megadeth songs. I noticed you had the 2004 mix of Rust in Peace. Do you prefer it or the original? I have the same disc, but need the original version.

On some of your choices...Dawn Patrol was always weird to me. Is Dave trying a British accent? Maybe they thought you needed a break between Tornado and the title track. Really not necessary. Eye of the Beholder... Let's just agree to disagree. Yeah, weakest song on the album but I still love it. At least it's one of the "short" tracks on that one. Cosmic Sea... You said you might get shit for that choice. To that end... 💩...there you go. 😂 Again I agree to disagree but I get your reasoning. Nobody's Fault... Should have been a b side. Decent cover but... Yeah. Tonally not a good fit. The cover of Draw The Line they did later would have worked better if they HAD to stretch the run time and HAD to cover Aerosmith. As for the rest I'm 100% with you. Or don't feel a desire to expand on what you said. Except Fear Factory. A bit ashamed to say I never could get into FF so there I don't have an opinion one way or the other.

First of all, totally agree with everything you said about Deftones. A little bit of a more obscure one though is Sunlight's Bane's TBVLATEWB. I followed those dudes since they were called Traitor and I loved all of their material that ended up on the Antiquated Chapters comp and I follow what all the members of that band do, even went to the release show, but the song Dance Of Thorns always stuck in my craw. I know you know what part I'm talking about lol it's a cool riff, but just I think goes on too long and always makes me want to skip it. Maybe if there was a message in the lyrics and they were a bit more enunciated it'd be cool, but I still love the album. It also bums me out because I don't believe those guys are still doing that band. Nathan is on to some cool bands though

I think Covered With Sores is too happy and bouncy for the Cannibal Corpse - Butchered At Birth album. Dawn Patrol is a waste of space. Also the long whammy bar Heavy breathing intro of Meathook Sodomy goes on way too long. The whispered Vocals clean guitar track on Immolation - Harnessing Ruin destroyed the flow of an otherwise decent album. Iron Maiden - Run To the Hills is a song I skip on Number of the Beast because it has been overplayed. Cosmic Sea was totally unnecessary. There was already plenty of similar instrumental sections already incorporated into the actual songs

Here are my pics for bad songs on good albums: 1. Shoot Shoot by Dio- I love Dio but this was a terrible closer 2. Heaven Can Wait by Iron Maiden- This was the only song on the album I didn't like. I just found the chorus very annoying and repetitive. 3. NFL by Anthrax- way too many goofy gang vocals; makes me think of a bunch of no-neck jocks in PCU screaming "Beer! Beer! Beer!" Hasn't aged well. 4. Jailbait by Motorhead- Ace of Spades is a great album but I personally find a song about a grown man not caring about having sex with an underage girl to be sickening and repulsive. This song is the only reason I don't own the album.
