Best Metal Vinyl Album


When we think of audiophiles, we do not think of metal. On the other hand, with the resurgance of vinyl, metal seems to be a hot seller. So, give me your top 3 metal vinyl lp. When in doubt what is metal, ask Eddie Trunk.

Yeah, i bought the 33 versus the 45 of master puppets. I agree, not so good. Really do not litsen to Metallica much anymore. Got burned out after seeing the live so many times and nothing really new coming from their camp. Im getting into more and more prog metal. Just bought Mastadon Crack the Sky on vinyl. Cannot wait to get back to the states so i can set up my other TT. This european project debut has done fine here, but i know i can get much more coming through my Cremonas.
I personally like.....

Iron Maiden "The Final Frontier"

Metallic "Ride The Lightening"

Megadeth "Peace Sells..But Who's Buying?"
I was a metal head back in the mid 80's. Those were the last of the turntable days (no choice). I loved Judas Priest, Accept, Nasty Savage, Merciful Fate. It was all fantastic on vinyl. I can get really deep with this but you'll have to ask because I have to remember. I don't listen to metal any more but I own stacks of lps.!!
Budgie,is it metal? I guess you can say early beginnings of Metal coming out at around the same time as Black Sabbath unfortunately without the worldwide success. I would to say as a metal Fan myself older school with some new i would say 1)Metallica - Master of Puppets
2)Black Sabbath - Sabotage
3)Mastodon - Blood mountain
4)High on Fire - Snakes for the Divine
5)Judas Priest - Point of Entry
6)Iron Maiden - Powerslave Plus many many more>>>the list goes on and on
All of these bands have their distinct styles but all deliver with fine playing and enough energy to charge up a full arena venue. Hmmm think I will go listen to Iron Maiden's "Somewhere in Time" Japanese version on vinyl which I just picked up in Victoria, BC. Happy Metal Hunting and Listening!!!!
Been away, but for good reasons. Just visited hometown seattle. Had the opportunity to see Testament and Anthrax at the showbox. Great, great. Show. Suprising for me, I enjoyed Anthrax better than Testament. I am a hardcore Testament fan, so I surprised myself that stear toward the other.. I have seen them put on better shows I guess. Couple days later, hit up the Uproar Festival and saw Godsmack, Staind and Adelitas Way. Yes, more hard rock versus metal, but still worth mentioning.

While in town hit up many record shops. Great metal shop in Capitol Hill. Expensive, but got my hands on some Opeth. Just returned from San Jose and picked up three Deftones albums. Also, got my hands on a Music Fidelity copy of Megadeath, Countdown to Extinction. Cannot wait to hear this one. Reviews will follow.

Donj, share to donate to the metalhead cause?
