GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums of 1980

[Serjeant Grumbles]

1980, the year that brought us Ozzy's ode to constipation. "No bowel movements!"

"No bone movies" is no way to live, why deprive yourself of such cultural treasures as this?

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Motorhead was put to rest with Lemmy. So they wont be opening up for anyone my man.

Ugh. Meant Megadeth.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Ugh. Meant Megadeth.

well it is the Ozzy Osbourne "farewell tour" so yeah, no surprise that they're headlining.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

Krokus - Metal Rendez-vous

... i'm digging this.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

cmon guys, i thought this would've been one of the easier years to rank.

@dwellerINTHEdark @Dazed and Brutal @jimmy101 @Burkhard @Sirjack @I-TEND-TO-DIE @Funerary_Doom @The Ozzman @no country for old wainds @Oblivious Maximus @challenge_everything @crimsonfloyd @Phylactery @Dak @Master_Yoda77 @Vegard Pompey @Satanstoenail @Anom@nder Rake @Black Orifice @alex76

 

[Vegard Pompey]

I'm a little swamped with schoolwork right now but I'll definitely have a list done before the deadline.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

you too @rms. Get your old ass in here.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

I've still got nine days to go. There's definitely no excuse not to make the deadline for this year, though.

for some reason i thought you'd already posted your list.

 

[rms]

only got 3 right now, not sure it's going to get to 5

 

[The Ozzman]

Lots of good albums this year but I don't feel like making a Top 8 for it especially since all my choices are in the Top 15 on the RYM link. Boring.

 

[CiG]

That makes no fucking sense.

 

[The Ozzman]

That makes no fucking sense.

I'm a bit burned out on these generally

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

I'll be sitting this round out, not quite my metal scene. Yet.

 

[Burkhard]

I'll be sitting this round out, not quite my metal scene. Yet.

+1

 

[Krow]

How can your “scene” not involve some of the greatest metal albums of all time?

 

[Talos of Atmora]

You know those albums that are practically essential to the formation of a genre I regularly enjoy? Not my scene, bruh

+1

OK, really? With your tastes, I imagine you could at least manage to list 5.

 

[dwellerINTHEdark]

I said "yet". Fuckers.

 

[no country for old wainds]

burkhard struggles to list 5 in most years, let alone ones that have barely any overlap with his taste lol

 

[CiG]

Yeah that's true, he's a very niche guy.
