As per the thread name. I'm going with
Darktrone and their run of eleven at least remarkable albums ("Goatlord" included). Could it be topped?

Immolation had 5 classics in a row.

Wouldn't agree with the Darkthrone - some debatable albums in the mix there.

Death? Emperor? Maybe. Was thinking immolation too.


Boring answer but all 6 of Sabbath's first run of albums are great. 5 and 6 slightly less so, but still great.

I know the proggy albums aren't to evryone's taste but I don't think they've released a bad one - Enslaved have an excellent 16 album run, 17 if you count Hordane's Land.


Candlemass, 13 albums, add in the EPs and it rises.

The Cure, from Boys Don't Cry* to Wish, 9 studio albums.


*It's the American release of their debut, it counts.

The boring answer is Maiden. From the debut to Seventh Son is a run of 7 that is hard to beat.


Fugazi
Hüsker Dü

Both had a flawless album career.


By chance "Repeater" is my Friday night spinnage  :abbath:

Death for sure. I'll say Revocation too. "Chaos of Forms" ain't their best, but their other seven albums are all bangers.

Mourning Beloveth never did a bad album.

Ihsahn.
Between Emperor and his solo stuff he's been going since the 90's.
There's been some mental jumps in style, and he certainly can go up his own arse on occasion, but he has never released shit music.
The guy is a musical genius.

I sometimes like to watch Ihsahn's YouTube play troughs of his songs as he is a marvel to watch and a really inventive player, but I've yet to grab a solo album.

Killing Joke must deserve a mention.

My dying bride had a good run up to the dreadful hours.
Satyricon up to volcano.
Dark Throne up to Goatlord.

Debatable? Sure. But no duds. Four unquestionable classics and a run between "Panzerfaust" and "Sardonic Wrath" is savage in its own right.
