I realize this was a viewer voted list but really. I feel like this could’ve been a worst metal albums of ’98 list. Did you vette any of these banger? who’s voting on this shit?
Man, 98 was a great fucking year for metal. I remember it well but now I’m feeling old.
It’s criminal that System of a Down makes the top five and CoF’s Cruelty and the Beast doesn’t. Love and agree with everything else mentioned. But despite the pretentious snobbery some metal fans throw at Cradle, Cruelty is still one of the best .. Gothic/Death?… metal albums ever, and easily Cradle’s best album. And for basically ever metal head I grew up with, it was one of their gateways into the world of non-mainstream metal.
Sure, I’m biased. If it weren’t for that album I might never have heard of 90% of the stuff on my playlist. But I have moved on from plenty of stuff I used to like, while Cruelty still remains one of my all-time favorite albums right alongside most of the records mentioned in this video.
Running Wild – The Rivalry deserves an honourable mention. One of their best albums, and their last with Jorg Michael on drums. Best of 1998 imo.
Where the fuck is Crowbar’s Odd Fellows Rest???
Faltó Infernal Torment – birthrate zero, aunque tengo mis dudas de que año es el disco 97 o 98 jajajajajajajajjajajajaja pero la wea es la raja
Absolutely shit review fuck mainstream over produced metal bitch
Gorguts – GOOD! SOAD – YUCK! Opeth – GREAT! Blind Guardian – meh… Death – YES!I’m definitely a death metal enthusiast more than anything, so power metal and nu metal don’t do much for me and never really have (sorry BG and SOAD fans, just my opinion though). If you absolutely HAD to have a nu metal album though, Follow the Leader would have been a better choice, because Korn pretty much started all that anyway, or even Obsolete by FF for being a bit better than both the aforementioned nu metal albums.Swap out SOAD and BG for any of the following and that’s a solid list: Meshuggah, Nile, Morbid Angel, Incantation, Dying Fetus
Nifelheim – The Devil’s Force
1998 top 5 in no particular order,NILE – amongst the catacombs…,GORGUTS-obscura,INCANTATION-diabolical conquest,EXUMED-gore metal,and of course the last masterpiece of good ole Chuck, DEATH- sound of perseverance…thanx kiddos.
No black metal albums 🙁
You had it right the 1st time. Chuck still is a guitar god.
“[The Sound of Perseverance] is a weird album for people because there is a new line-up…”
So who wants to tell her?
Would of loved to see chemical wedding and something wicked but still… nice picks! Probably take allot of heat for this but fuck it… follow the leader was a shot out. Would of loved to see cruelty and the beast on there too. Masterpiece. Keep doing what you all do! This channel is the best.
Meshuggah chaosphere should be atleast in the top 5 if not No. 1.
Wtf..
Knew it
Death’s worst album could be another band’s 5 star masterpiece.
Until Your Heart Stops, anyone?? That’s one of my top metal albums ever. Oh well. Same goes for When Forever Comes Crashing. #massmetal
Some of my favorite albums of 1998
Edguy – Vain Glory Opera
Grave Digger – Knights Of The Cross
Hammerfall – Legacy Of Kings
Helloween – Better Than Raw
Godsmack – Godsmack
U.D.O. – No Limits
Kiss – Psycho Circus
Nightwish – Oceanborn
Motörhead – Overnight Sensation
Soilwork – Steel Bath Suicide
Primal Fear – Primal Fear
Stratovarius – Destiny
I am glad Iced Earth – Something Wicked This Way Comes, and Bruce Dickinson- Chemical Wedding were honorable mentions, but…
1998 was also a perhaps the best year for the underground power and prog metal scenes. It was like Metal was making a small resurgence.
Here are just some of those great albums…
EdGuy – Vain Glory Opera
Nightwish – Oceanborn
HammerFall – Legacy of Kings
Symphony X – Twilight in Olympus
Rhapsody – Symphony of Enchanted Lands
Virgin Steele – Invictus
Angra – Fireworks
Helloween – Better Than Raw
Stratovarius – Destiny
The Haunted (.)
WHAT THE FUCK!!! System of a Down Syndrome isn’t even FUCKING metal!!!?? What kind of fan base do you guys have?
Some of the best solos are on that Death record – Voice of the Soul is one of the most beautiful metal songs ever.
No ‘Cruelty and The Beast’?!?! That’s absurd!! Whether you like ‘Cradle Of Filth’ nowadays or not, that album is an absolute classic by anyone’s standards. I’m sorry but this video pissed me off.
Not to include Chemical Wedding here is a joke of a list!!
System of a Down! lol fuck that! I remember I got a promo tape from Slayer that year and on the B side it had System of a down, I was like? How is this band on the same thing as Slayer ?!
Blind Guardian and Opeth’s chosen Albums are Brilliant. Great picks.
i got goosebumps when i heard that spirit crusher riff
Chaosphere – Meshuggah and When Blood & Fire Bring Rest – Zao are my favorite.
Who ever voted all this Garbage must be on some serious drugs. Worst picks I ever seen, especially all this shitty ass death metal garbage.
The only band that is justified is Death – The Sound of perseverance being # 1
Blind Guardian was never on Century Media
I would say that Destiny by Stratovarius came out in 98 also and is easily a better power metal album than NFIME. All other picks are fine though.
Where’s “Chaosphere” Or “Oddfellows Rest”?
Blind guardian should be replaced with slayers diabolica in musica
I tried getting into Death. It’s good. It was ground breaking for its time. Not my cup of tea, I would have chosen Suffocation if I would have lived as a teen in the 90s. But saying SoP is shit is beyond me. It’s just as good as everything before.
People are so caught up when it comes to Death it’s hilarious. Like the people saying they haven’t heard good Death Metal since the 90s. It’s okay to stay in the past I guess.
4:28 taste of change or change of taste? XD
Great and varied choices.
Death’s singer on this last album reminds me of Cradle of Filth. I know a lot of metal heads HATE Cradle…
Sound of Perseverance by Death is way too far to the rest o the list. Blind Guardian? who listen that crap? where is Speed Metal Slaughter by cranium; most of this “metalheads” names really boring bands
Fuck yes….The Chasm. Great band.
Who is opeth
Love fear factory’s Obsolete. Best record of 1998 for me.
1998 was the year power metal took over mainstream the metal scene (briefly) no stratovarius, no hammerfall, no edguy? and not liking system of a down is being a hipster?? dude this list is weak. And please pagan altar rules but worshiping this guys has to be the most hipster thing nowadays
No Exhumed, HammerFall, Nile, Symphony X, Amon Amarth, Dying Fetus (all of those bands put out Iconic albums that year)
Fuck i hate these banger tv poser nerdy cunts..fuck off….
