Since I don't think it was mentioned yet, I'll submit that Megadeth's Rust in Peace is top 10 material and is really solid top to bottom. Marty Friedman really elevated that band, as did Mustaine getting clean for the recording process.

Mustaine is a nut and seems like a major douche, but I don't see why that's relevant. Oh well, your list

Mustaine's voice is unbearable imo. Also megadeth has absolutely garbage drumming

Lateralus is better than Opiate, imo. However, also imo, I don't consider Tool to be "metal".

Will any Slayer or Ronnie James Dio albums make an appearance

Kelsey_Grammar · « **Reply #140 on:** October 21, 2013, 09:02:05 PM »

I believe that the music of the band "Tool" is more appropriately aligned with the "alternative" genre than it is aligned with the "metal" genre...

tons of cross-over between the fans of each.

i'm not sure "alternative" is what we're looking for (at least as it is commonly used) but i definitely wouldn't call it "metal" either. is "hard alt prog rock" a category?

I believe that the established test for genres is whether or not it is listed on a label in a Hastings store. If we apply this test, then no, no it is not...
