(insert groan here)

I'd say that it's pathetic that less than half the bands on here are legitimate metal bands, but I'd be lying if I said I was surprised.

I was kinda surprised to see a few up there, namely Mercyful Fate and Kyuss, but the rest were pretty predictable.

Stuff like that used to really grind my gears. But it's a fact of life: Some People Just Fail.

I think he gets in there for the "early influence" factor. Same with Zep, since neither is really what we now consider metal, yet both undeniably left a big mark on the birth and development of the genre.

Still, not a very good list unless you're REALLY liberal with the use of the term "metal".

Yeah, definitely. I would've been surprised by Meshuggah had this been compiled before "obZen." Every critic I've read has been kissing their asses over it lately.

From what I've heard of Meshuggah, they're technical, just to say that they're technical.

Pretty much. One could have a similar musical experience by stepping into the engine room of a cargo ship.

There's a lot of people complaining in the comments, and some of them are just as ignorant about metal, as the guy who made the list.

Definatly. But then again, I agree with hallow. this kinda stuff really used to toast my buns when I was like 14 or 13, but now its just the norm. on almost every metal list you have, its either going to be metallica or black sabbath.
