). Well, mostly second-rate classics. In particular, what is Toxicity doing there? And in recent albums, there's stuff that hardly classifies as hard rock or metal. Modest Mouse?

I'll take interesting-but-flawed over perfect-but-boring any day. Toxicity's probably going to chop suey its way into the top 500 at this point, because I can't think of a single modern rock/metal list that doesn't have it (and a few non-rock/metal lists have it too).

Spin Doctors aren't particularly metal either.

Yeah, I took Modest Mouse because they were the ones that stuck out the most to me, but they certainly aren't the only ones. Fleetwood Mac? Rory Gallagher and other blues acts? The glam rock acts? They certainly are very inclusive when making these lists.

The band I can't even fathom the progress they'll make are Iron Maiden. When I started this insanity (remember I'm not that fan of metal in the first place, although recurrence has got me involved with a few of the albums I've helped when posting these lists), I told to myself that it might be nice to help second-rate classics from the big acts. But now, not only Iron Maiden's already-featured albums, especially The Number of the Beast, might make ridiculous performances, but they might even get four additional albums!

(Fear of Mind, Somewhere in Time, and even Fear of the Dark and Brave New World!) Also, Scorpions' performance is ridiculous, seriously look at their score in the spreadsheet... Even acts with pretty monolithic discographies might have some shake-up (I mean acts which haven't moved much in terms of new album entries since I discovered AM.net), like, even AC/DC, Aerosmith, Guns N' Roses, Led Zeppelin and Metallica might get new entries, which is something I didn't expect. And Queen, of course... And to think, I know of more hard rock & heavy metal albums lists out there that I didn't find! Maybe the rise won't stop there

Thanks Pierre! Do you think that I should use this as a list (anything on this list beats albums not mentioned) or as ratings (albums with a 5 then becomes the "worst")?

Iron Maiden deserve every praise they get.

Well it's a list of second-rate classics, so everything mentioned here isn't supposed to beat, say, The Number of the Beast, Appetite for Destruction or Master of Puppets... The book indeed makes it clear that the albums mentioned are supposed to be complementary to the usually-mentioned classics. Meanwhile, albums with a "5" still are supposed to be worth a shot, they aren't supposed to be frankly poor albums. But I guess the rating idea might be worth it as long as the albums benefit from it. A decision must be taken for the two albums (Boxer's Below the Belt and Shark Island's Law of the Order) that the author mentioned but forgot to rate though.

I agree. And man, did they get some lately
