It has acclaim, popularity, and impact though. The impact comes from its originality...I can't think of anybody else in metal (apart from avant-garde outfits) that could make "Teenager" or "Digital Bath" and get away with it.

A metal band shouldn't make Digital Bath. The only reason they "got away with it" is because their fans were morons with no respect to the old school or any concept of what metal was about.

The Hagar years were multiple times more metal than that shit, and I can't stand those.

You want to talk about originality? High On Fire was forging a stoner/thrash hyrbid.

But I don't like High on Fire so they shouldn't go on the list.

I wasn't even trying to make an argument against Deftones.

It seemed like you were refuting the points I put forward to try to get them high on the list, I misunderstood.

Nice to see you pimping Deftones everywhere, joe. White Pony is a VERY good album!

I recently bought it on CD, and my rip of it must have been not as good before, because it almost sounds brand new to me. It's weird how much complexity their is in their music for it being seemingly simple.

Why do you insist on overrating every Immortal album?

I ain't overrating shit. People were looking for albums to fill the bottom half of 2000, I suggested Damned In Black and quite a few people said ok.

Perhaps Disturbed's debut, The Sickness? The title track alone was very popular.
