Im a long time metal listener, and I have a wide range of metal tastes, but it seems like someone who doesn’t know much about metal place this together. Theres a few bands on here that aren’t even considered metal bands(Queens of the Stone Age, I Mother Earth, Hawkwind) and they managed to leave out a few major genres of metal, like Black Metal. For those that dont know Black Metal and Death Metal were pretty much the predominant metal genres of the 90’s. So apparently it made sense to them to include some non-metal bands at the expense of including ANY black metal at all. Lame.
So lets go owing to some fundamental metal genres and see if any of the widely recognizable major acts were included:
The “huge 4″ of Thrash Metal:
Anthrax? Nope
Megadeth? Nope
Metallica? Nope
Slayer? Nope
Major Death Metal Bands:
Morbid Angel? Nope
Death? Nope
Cannibal Corpse? Nope
Obituary? Nope
Major Melodic Death Metal Bands:
At the Gates? Hey! theres one!
Dark Tranquility? Nope
In Flames? Nope
Children of Bodom? Ok! thats two! But why this song?
Major Black Metal Bands:
Emperor? Nope
Mayhem? Nope
Burzum? Nope
Immortal? Nope
Major Original Heavy Metal Bands:
Black Sabbath? Nope
Judas Priest? Hey! thats 3!
Iron Maiden? Nope
Motorhead? Ok! thats 4!
Major 80’s Glam Metal Bands:
Motley Crue? Nope
Ratt? Nope
Skid Row? Nope
Europe? Nope
Major Potential Metal Bands:
Iced Earth? Nope
Blind Guardian? Nope
Stratovarius? Nope
Helloween? Nope
Major Progressive Metal Bands:
Dream Theater? Nope
Opeth? Nope
Symphony X? Nope
Nevermore? Nope
Major Doom Metal Bands:
My Dying Bride? Nope
Katatonia? Nope
Paradise Lost? Nope
Abomination? Nope
I could go on and on with other metal genres but you get the point. I know that they cant include everything on this disk, but what is shocking is what they chose to place in INSTEAD of what I listed above. Some huge genres aren’t even represented on the disk. With such a wide selection of metal to choose from in this world they only chose to include a few, threw in some stuff that wasn’t even metal in order to fill up a disk, and ignored a whole bunch of metal. This gets 2 stars because they at least got a few right, but for the most part this disk is way off. Metal is my favorite music genre and I dont even want this track pack! That says something!
