Maybe it's time to resurrect the 'Greatest Hard Rock Album' Thread?

I think Metallo may be referring to a thread which was hanging around called 'Are Bon Jovi metal?' The answer is of course no, NO and N-O!! but someone on here must have thought it once. Worrying...

Hey, I've found a great quote on the back of my Motorhead best of CD!

'....Heavy Metal legends Motorhead were the first hard rock act to harness the energy of Punk...'  

The inside sleeve notes describe the music as 'spirited rock 'n roll' (now I'm getting confused), all of which either makes Motorhead masters of genre- fusion, or their PR guys total morons. I... am opting for the latter.

Hmmm some that need to be on the list of greatest (in no particular order):

Judas Priest: British Steel, SFV, Defenders of the Faith, Painkiller.
Saxon: Denim and Leather, The Inner Sanctum.
Iron Maiden: The Number of the Beast, Powerslave.
Hammerfall: Legacy of Kings.
Motorhead: Ace of Spades, Inferno.
Amon Amarth: Once Sent From the Golden Hall
Grim Reaper: See You In Hell.
Dio: Dream Evil.
Overkill: Feel The Fire.

That is some that I can think of so far.

SAYS it?!? Lemm friggin' ANNOUNCES it before most concerts: "We are Motorhead and we play Rock and Roll."

"Metalworks" by the kings...JUDAS PRIEST

            who can't buy the whole catalog(recommend) should start here.
