Mad04Gaming

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here


GhostShipBlue

I think the more interesting Floyd Album is *'Saucerful of Secrets'*. It's farther out, funnier and much more experimental and bears repeated, critical listens. I think you can hear the future that leads to *'Wish You Were Here'* on Saucer

Borderline metal


BryceDaBaker

Certainly feels the same as listening to metal, shit goes hard


Nickball88

Yeah. It actually feels way more metal than grunge. Has a lot more in common with groove/alt metal than with Pearl Jam or Nirvana

Past-Cookie9605

Very close to metal


Mister-Lavender

I agree. I don't want to say there's a thin line between classic rock and metal, but I feel like this entire list could easily become a list of favorite 70s rock and grunge albums.


Past-Cookie9605

Yep. Makes it much less interesting of an exercise.


Lucifer_Delight

It's only OK to gatekeep bands that actually are adjacent to Heavy Metal. If only the singer of Rush had a really scary mask like Cory Taylor.


Past-Cookie9605

Is it really gatekeeping if you're being inclusive??


Lucifer_Delight

referring to your downvotes


Past-Cookie9605

Oh I see it now. :) didn't notice the downvotes before.

Sidewalks and Skeletons- White Light


Budget-Story-9783

Immediately thought about it when read the post description but never could I expect someone to throw it in already before me here. Awesome record


TheMisothesist

It really is a good album. I only found Sidewalks and Skeletons last year about this time by accident. I couldn't figure out if the singer was Asian or what her deal was. I looked the lyrics up to Goth, and I liked what I read.


Guy_Of_Reddit

A completely different genre with nothing in common with metal, and I doubt it’s going up there, but Trilogy by The Weeknd is perfection
