The longest winning streak.

[open face surgery]

Ya, I def will but I'll probably be on this new one for a while for now.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Atheist must have one of the longest winning streaks, if only in terms of elapsed time   

[Bürggermeister]

Coroner, man, after that new tune   

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Fingers crossed, but I didn't find the one new tune strong enough to assure me the album will be killer. A grand track, but every song on Jupiter is better than it, for example. But fingers crossed!

I remember thinking "oh no, how will they manage with a new vocalist?", the Miss Machine landed in me mailbox.

"Sound", as if were.

Hmm,I dunno. It sounds more Coroner than anything sounds Atheist on Jupiter. And I enjoyed Jupiter too.

Okay, now I have a few minutes to think about this:

Opeth - 8
Rush - 8
Death - 7
Led Zeppelin - 7
Yes - 7
Primordial - 7 (6 albums + 1 EP)
Iron Maiden - 7 (at a pinch)
Black Sabbath - 6
Testament - 6 (prob only coming to mind because of the other discussion)
Emperor - 6 (4 albums + 1 EP + 1 demo)


Once it gets to five, just too many bands. Probably a couple other bands with a 6 or maybe even 7 album run that aren't coming to mind right now.

I'd agree with this

Of all the forum heads I'm surprised you skipped Mastodon!   

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Blood Mountain has never really clicked for me. I'd sooner include The Hunter in a run from Crack the Skye to Hushed and Grim (which would make them yet another 5). Actually, I was relatively slow in giving time to Crack the Skye after the disappointment of BM, which at the time sounded to me, in its best parts, like leftovers from Leviathan. Sleeping Giant was prob the best glimpse of better things to come.

[Ducky]

That's interesting. Been on board meself with Mastodon since the debut (albeit between it and Leviathan, think Iron Tusk was the first song I heard via a sampler disc), and always loved BM.

Took me years to warm up to CtS, but enjoyed The Hunter and Once More right from the off.

Might actually stick on The Hunter now, haven't given it a go in ages.

[Paul keohane]

Nile had a pretty good run!, Primordial worth a mention too.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

YOB too actually, first one isn't up to much but they've only gotten better since imo.

Good call. So there's a 7 I missed. And Nevermore another 

Edit: Actually that's a bit too generous towards The Obsidian Conspiracy, which is only grand. Think I'd give King Diamond a 6 album run too, up to The Spider's Lullabye.

The last Gjendød is great. Worth a revisit.

Gjendød definitely are on a run. Personally album number 4 is untouchable for me but they are all essential.
