I'd say System Of A Down - Steal This Album! is mine.

[DBoon]

1. Sleater Kinney - Dig Me Out

n/t

[DBoon]

31. Other choices....

"Wild Gift" by X

"Damaged" by Black Flag

[GOPisEvil]

62. S-K ROCKS!!!!

All Hands On The Bad One is a good one, too. They are GREAT live, too! Oh, and they can't stand *. :-)

[ChompySnack]

2. Bad Brains

Self titled album

[frylock]

3. minor threat - complete discography

[ChompySnack]

5. Very good one

I also like the "Pailhead" project with the Ministry guy Ian did.

[frylock]

7. agree.. and props for that BB pick..

totally dig on Brains too!

[ret5hd]

34. Pigface? (nt)

[Forkboy]

69. Pailhead was really cool

[Forkboy]

68. oooo....thats a tough pick to argue with!

"WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?!"

[Loonman]

4. Gang Green "Another Wasted Night"

Also : Dropkick Murphys "Live on St. Patricks Day Boston MA"

[SheepyMcSheepster]

6. Deicide-Once Upon The Cross

[davidinalameda]

[Blue_State_Elitist]

9. Social Distortion

Social Distortion "White Light White Heat White Trash"

[jonnyblitz]

36. good cd!

:) I have been listening to Live at the Roxy all week by them...

[Bob3]

10. It's Alive - Ramones

live. Johnny Joey Tommy Dee Dee. onetwothreefour!

[Rabrrrrrr]

11. Black Sabbath Vol. IV, or perhaps Live Evil

Both rockin' sockin' by the untouchable masters of hard rocking metal.

Anything else - just poseurs.

Though there are other great rockers - Zep, Rush, Iron Maiden, Dio, Ozzy. Still, no one can top Sabbath for pure rockin' crunchification.

[Liberal_Andy]

12. Year of the Horse

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

[BurtWorm]

13. The Hangmen: Metallic I.O.U. or We've Got Blood on the Toes of Our Boots

I just got Flamin Groovies' "Teenage Head," which is pretty rockin' and rollin' too.

[vi5]

14. Too many to mention.....

Assuck - Misery Index
Spazz - La Revancha
Anything by Deicide or Cannibal Corpse or early Napalm Death
Anything by the Locust
His Hero is Gone - Monuments to Thieves
Rorschach - Autopsy

The list could go on. System of a Down? Ick. No offense but ick.

[mvd]

16. He he - to each his own

Death metal is the ick IMO.

[vi5]

23. Even I admit death metal is ick....thats why I like it.

And for the record I don't think SOAD are horrible (especially compared to the rest of the nu metal ilk), just not very hard rocking IMHO.

Actually at this stage of my life most of what I listen to is mellow, atmospheric brit-pop and indie rock. But after 20+ years of listening to metal, punk, hardcore, grindcore, death metal and the like, I still do have a lot of fairly raging stuff in my collection. At this point as a 33 year old father of an infant daughter, not as much of it gets pulled out as used to. But it's still there for the days that I need to just cut loose.

[mvd]

29. You have to consider my likes

Considering my taste, System of A Down is very hard. I just happen to really like them.

I do have my guilty pleasures, but death metal isn't one of them.

To everyone: don't be embarrassed if your choice isn't hard rocking. It's all part of my curiosity.

[SnowGoose]

15. Tom Waits

It's a little different, in that it's not heavy metalish or punkish at all, but Tom Waits "Bone Machine" actually rocks out harder (in a kind of dusty blown speaker cones in the back of a rusted-out 1973 station wagon sorta way) than anything else in my collection (which contains a great deal of scrawny scandinavian death metal, for what it's worth).

[short bus president]

17. Archers of Loaf

and it's a tie between "VeeVee" and "Icky Mettle."

[vi5]

24. It's not exactly rockin' but Icky Mettle is one of my favorite albums....

Honestly one of the finest pieces of indie rock songcraft ever. I heart that record something fierce.

[short bus president]

35. how could you deny

that "fat" or "last word" are hard rocking?!?

VeeVee has a bit more of an edge to it, I guess, but I've definitely got a soft spot for Icky Mettle. That, and The Speed of Cattle (Tatyana being my favorite AoL song EVER).

[quispquake]

18. Stooges-Fun House

Fun House is the GREATEST!!! Put this on when you're really drunk, or really pissed off (or both!!!). Your life will change...

Honorable Mentions:

Velvet Underground-White Light, White Heat
Cows-Taint Pluribus, Taint Unum
Motorhead-No Remorse

[aquaman]

58. Fun House is a great cd.....

and a necessity in anyone's collection.

[jpgray]

82. Raw Power beats out Fun House

LA Blues is a pile of crap. Dirt and TV Eye are pretty great, though.

[Kat45]

19. Motorhead

Take your pick. :-)

[ret5hd]

32. very good...check out ugly mus:tard (nt)

[dawg]

20. Anekdoten - Nucleus

Has anyone else even heard of them?

[Melinda]

21. Good grief, if any of you buy on ebay, you prolly bought from me.

The music selections and lists here read like my inventory, lol. :)

[Khephra]

22. Probably

Ministry's Psalm 69

[kaitykaity]

55. Al Jourgensen crawled into my head and he never left.

The whole Ministry discography (except the early
years) is perfect industrial.

Twitch
Psalm69
Animositisomina
Land of Rape and Honey
Filth Pigs
Greatest Fits

[Forkboy]

70. khephra knows how I feel about Ministry

[underpants]

26. The Best of BREAD!

Man did those guys ROCK!

[BurtWorm]

27. Do you have the bootleg with the 26 minute version of "If..."

Whoa!

[underpants]

28. Is that the one with the drum solo?

LOL My wife has a copy of that. If she plays it I've warned her that after about 90 seconds I can't be responsible for what I might do.

:grr:

[BurtWorm]

33. No

It's the version where the lead singer breaks down and just weeps for 24 minutes.

[underpants]

37. Oh right and all the girls from the Drama club throw handkechiefs

:bounce:

[edzontar]

30. X-Ray Spex

The Anthology.

Also very hard rocking are:

Pistols/Bollocks

Clash/The Clash

Zep/How the West was Won

Hendrix/Are You etc?

[jonnyblitz]

38. oh bondage up yours!!

:hi:

[GregW]

73. Bind me. Tie me. Chain me to the wall ...

I wanna be a slave to you all. Oh bondage, up yours!

[NightTrain]

39. Best of the MC5

"Kick out the jams, moterfuckers!!!"

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

40. Golden Earring-- Last Blast Of The Century

After that, King Biscuit Presents Zebra

[short bus president]

41. does that have

"Twilight Zone" on it? Hands down my favorite Golden Earring song (ever since "Radar Love" started giving me that pesky mental image of a naked Gary Burghoff doing his sexy dance).

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

53. Yes, it does.

It's a double cd of a live concert held to celebrate the end of the 20th century, so it has quite a few of their classic hits on it, including a killer version of Twilight Zone.

[Pillowbiter]

42. Suicidal Tendencies - the one with the pepsi song

or Dir en Grey - Macabre

[kaitykaity]

43. Sepultura The Nation Song Politricks

So You Want A Nation?
Your Very Own Nation
Push The Machine Aside
Many Have Tried

We Have Always Been There
We Will Always Be There
Making Sure You Need Us
And Feed Us

We Got The Money
We Got The Power
We Got The Guns
We Got Tv

You Are Our Livestock
We Make You Love It
Slave And Dream For Escape
But Scared To Death Of Change

[m_h_lovecraft]

45. Symptom cover...

Symptom of the Universe from NIB, Black Sabbath Tribute album...
Like a ride down a fiery chute.

[m_h_lovecraft]

44. ALL of my SEPULTURA

.

[Forkboy]

71. Sadly,they never beat Beneath The Remains

which is one of the best thrash albums off all time.

[DS1]

46. Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power (Sepultura and Soulfly tied for 2nd)

Yeah baby!

[Bossy Monkey]

47. X: Hey Zeus

[jayfish]

48. Dark Angel- Darkness Decends. Or Maybe...

My Slayer collection.

Jay

[Chomskyite]

49. Still the hardest rockin' rock album of all time after 25 years

Led Zeppelin Physical Grafitti

[sangha]

50. CSNY - Four Way Street

.

[Township75]

51. Fear Factory's Demanufacter or a Morbid Angel CD*

*

[CarlWoodward]

52. mind-blowing album

I don't know if it qualifies as "rocking," but by far the heaviest CD in my collection is Miles Davis - Dark Magus.

It's a 2-disc set of a live concert by Miles at Carnagie Hall in the early '70s at the height of his electric era. He's got an enormous percussion section, three electric guitarists and a host of other musicians, and he blows his horn through a wild collection of distortion/echo/delay effects. Heavy, heavy stuff.

It's not for the faint of heart, and a lot of jazz purists hate it. But I find it QUITE tasty.

[mitchum]

54. Motorhead "Ace of Spades" or Stooges "Raw Power"

[Tom Kitten]

57. Can't limit it to just one....

Nirvana "Bleach"
The Celibate Rifles "Mid-Stream of Consciousness" (actually anything by them)
Ramones first 3 albums
The Lazy Cowgirls "Ragged Soul"
Th Faith Healers "Lido"
The Dream Syndicate "Days of Wine and Roses"
The Lime Spiders "The Cave Comes Alive"
The Fall "Our Nation's Saving Grace"
L7 "Smell the Magic"
Frightwig "Wild Women Never Die..."
The Gits "Frenching the Bully"

Mainly a reflection from my wild untamed youth!

[Forkboy]

72. THE GITS......YAY!

Thougt they might have been a figment of my imagination.Glad I'm not the only one whose heard of them!

[youngred]

56. Kittie - Spit

I have three SOAD CDs, but they're not as hardcore as the Canadian ladies

[SEAburb]

59. Pantera "Vulgar Display of Power" / nt

.....

[ChillEB]

85. Me too - Pantera VDOP

That, or "Gords Gold" by Gordon Lightfoot

[alfredo]

60. What rocks me differs as to my mood changes.

A couple weeks ago it was HooDoo Zephyr by John Adams.

But right this minute, the hardest rocking CD I have is "On The Corner" by Miles Davis.

White Stripes "Elephant" is some fine rock. It's got that Detroit rage. But Miles Davis was the rock.

[binaryline]

61. Filth/Blatz- The Shit Split

Talentless punk rawk that'll make yer ears bleed... but it's still good times ;-).

[Ashes]

63. Lawrence Welk does a tribute to SoundGarden

lovely.

[opiate69]

64. Soundgarden

Ultramega ok, or Louder than Love... both of 'em rip,beginning to end..Also, Tool's "Opiate".

[Ashes]

65. agreed to all!

.

[Syrinx]

66. I saw this thread early, but thought I would answer later

I knew what the answer was.

I'm not really a big fan, but I got a cd recently after hearing a cut.

I was kind of surprised when the cd I was thinking of was in the body of your message. Wow.

Their sound IS powerfullllll.

[jus_the_facts]

67. most everything I own is hard rockin'.....so I'll just name one....

.....one of my favorites....



Fly on your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
~Flight Of Icarus~

[Fixated]

74. ...

I listen to a lot of hardcore, so probably Poison the Well - Tear from the Red or You Come Before You. Perhaps any Killswitch Engage album I own.

[Forkboy]

79. Killswitch Engage?!?!

No wonder you dont like Pig Destroyer after listening to that wimpy-ass stuff!

Just kidding,they're cool too :D

[GregW]

75. "Evil Empire" - RATM

Probably followed by "Aenima" - Tool

[Forkboy]

76. I can honestly say that I've heard every band mentioned on this thread

and the band Pig Destroyer makes them all sound slower than a tortoise walking uphill in molasses during the summer while Jimmy Stewart reads War and Peace on it's back.

NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!

[Fixated]

77. ...

They suck. And you certainly haven't heard EVERY band on this thread. Damn lying liberals (kidding, kidding...but I stand by the initial comment).

[Forkboy]

78. Well,thats your opinion

and thats cool....they're not for everyone...in fact they're hardly for anyone :D

And actually I have heard every band mentioned so far...to quote the guy from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2,"Music..is my life!"

[T_i_B]

80. Where to start?

Ah, memories of being a 16 year old headbanger!

Sepultura - Beneath The Remains (although Chaos AD my my favourite Sepultura record)

Celtic Frost - Into The Pandemonium

Death - Individual Though Patterns & Fate (The best of CD)

Obituary - World Demise

Machine Head - Burn My Eyes & The Burning Red

Fear Factory - Demanufacture & Obsolete

Pitch Shifter - www.pitchshifter.com

Korn - Korn

Biohazard - State of the wortd Address (first band I ever saw live)

Add to all this stuff by Napalm Death, Carcass, At The Gates, Pantera, early Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride, Slayer etc and I have some quite out heavy stuff in my record collection.

[rjbcar27]

81. Ooh lots

but currently I can't take Slash's Snakepit - Ain't Life Grand, out of my CD player. It's seems to permanently stuck in there. Strangely it moves from my house to my car and I can't seem to get rid of it.

Appetite for Destruction, rocks 2 fat ones.

Metallica - Black album

RATM - RATM, phenominal

bloody hell, the list is almost endless.

[chenGOD]

83. Hmmm let's see...

Probably

Venetian Snares-"doll,doll,doll" or "greg hates car culture". Although technically not rock, it does tend to scare the pants off most people.

Hardest rock? I dunno. The Melvins maybe or Slayer or Barf perhaps.

[SmileyBoy]

84. SOAD's first album is even more hardcore.

And I listen to it EVERY DAY!!!!!!:-)

[Hubert Flottz]

86. Buckethead!

Rocks!

[Zorro]

87. ZZ Top - Afterburner

Every tune on the album is a rocker, with tasty guitar hooks and mumbled lyrics that sound smuttier the more you listen to them...to me it represents the epitome of a rock and roll album.
