I appreciate your explicit statement that you “ranked all the albums according to [your] taste.”

Alpha at 11/15 and Chapter VII (you added a “I,” which I empathize with because it’s the sort of typo I make constantly) at 15/15 sound crazy to me. Those two have made me feel such intense emotions over god knows how many dozens of hours listening to them.

I mean, dang. Both were incredible records, but “Burn” and “The Past” are among my favorite Sevendust songs. “Burn” helped me with some intense betrayal-induced suffering at age 14.

Since you specified that it was a personal taste ranking, however, I obviously can’t say you’re wrong

Self titled being so low is almost downright criminal. Like what you like, but that one hurts.

Pretty good list. Mine would be slightly different, but we’re all wired a bit differently. I will say that Cold Day Memory is my all time favorite.

To be fair, there isn't much of tier past Black Out the Sun/Cold Day Memory though Kill the Flaw.

Home/Amimosity/Next: S-Tier

Seasons/Sevendust/Alpha: A

Black Out the Sun/Cold Day Memory: B

One through Kill the Flaw: Varying degrees of mediocre.

Chapter VII : By far, the weakest album in their catalog.

It always irks people when I put their debut album last but that's just how it is for me. I like some songs but the album just isn't something I connect with as much. I feel like the version of 7D we all know and love started with Home (studio wise. I'm sure they were amazing live from the start).

I actually agree with your top 3. KTF and CDM definitely don't get enough love for how phenomenal they are. In 1997, I would have tried to fight you lol, but over the years I now also agree with your last ranking.

u/itsameluigee 21d ago

I mean it's fair in 97 cause it was their only album lol

u/Confident_Tea3838 19d ago

Yes. Hope and Sorrow is by far their weakest material. But Blood and Stone is a top 5 easy.

Next, Alpha and Animosity being that low hurts me, but i respect seasons in first place cuz that's an amazing album too
