0GuyMan0: Best Streak in Music History

0GuyMan0 06.18.17	I can't think of anybody who can top this. Not even sure I can get close.
InFlamesWeThrash666 06.18.17	Maiden is pretty close
0GuyMan0 06.18.17	Yeah they are.
Artuma 06.18.17	neurosis has 7 straight albums with at least a 4.0 average
0GuyMan0 06.18.17	And here I was thinking nobody was close. I admit not thinking very long about it, but damn.
FakeOne 06.18.17	Gentle Giant also has a great streak, 6 albums with at least a 4.0
0GuyMan0 06.18.17	I'm not even familiar with them. I'm on mobile now, but I'll add these when I get up tomorrow. I imagine Rush and Opeth can hang with the 4.1-2 range as well.
Flugmorph 06.18.17	nah deliverance breaks the streak of 4.0 with opeths discog
HarshNoiseHenry 06.18.17	Borguts Suffocation Incantation Immolation
TheGreatQ 06.18.17	Black Sabbath has 6 in a row with at least 4.0 Two have a 4.5, and the total average is 4.27
Sevengill 06.18.17	Floyd has four consecutive that average 4.5. that's insane.
cosmopazz 06.18.17	where's dzo-nga on this list tbh
Sevengill 06.18.17	not a large enough sample size yet
TheGreatQ 06.18.17	The Beatles: five in a row with at least a 4.2, two at 4.5, total average 4.38
Sevengill 06.18.17	I once made an Excel spreadsheet of this exact concept. I ought to see if I still have it.
Davil667 06.18.17	Rush comes to my mind with 6 albums from 4 to 4.4 in a row.
Davil667 06.18.17	Ah had already been mentioned so nvm :]
0GuyMan0 06.18.17	Yeah but I forgot about them, so I'll add. TY.
Madbutcher3 06.18.17	Virgin Steele has 5 with 4.3 and up in a row, 4.3 average Ozric Tentacles has 9 in a row with 4.0 and up, 4.1 average Porcupine Tree has 7 in a row with 4.0 and up Running Wild has 6 with 4.0 and up in a row, 4.1 average Excluding The Snowman and The Falcon, which is a soundtrack album, Pat Metheny Group has 5 in a row with 4.1 and up. 4.1 average, only 2 albums across entire career below a 4.1. Genesis has 5 in a row with 4.1 and up (1 4.5). 4.3 average Return to Forever has 6 in a row with 4.1 and up, 4.2 average if sputnikmusic is to be believed, Paco De Lucia has 10 in a row with 4.1 and up, but there aren't many ratings on most of them and i suspect not many of his releases are there (as of right now, 2 4.6s and 3 4.4s). 4.4 average. Manilla Road has 2 good streaks with 4 in a row of 4.1 and up, then 5 in a row with 4 and up UFO has 6 in a row with 4.0 and up The Gathering has 5 in a row with 4.1 and up Talking Heads has 5 in a row with 4.0 and up (1 4.5) John Coltrane has 5 in a row with 4.1 and up (1 4.6) Ornette Coleman has 8 in a row with 4.0 and up Wayne Shorter has 6 in a row with 4.1 and up New Model Army essentially has 6 in a row (No Rest for the Wicked is 3.9 but could easily be a 4) those are the best ones i could find besides the ones here. Unsurprisingly a lot of stuff from the 60s and 70s, particularly Jazz stuff, get simultaneously few and high ratings
0GuyMan0 06.18.17	I'm not familiar with some of those acts, but Porcupine Tree probably makes the list.
Madbutcher3 06.18.17	I'd have Return to Forever, Ozric Tentacles and Talking Heads down, i think they all have a reasonable number of ratings, especially the latter
Madbutcher3 06.18.17	probably also worth noting that the entire non-demo discog of Gorguts (5 lps + Pleiades' Dust) is a 4 and above
ashcrash9 06.18.17	it may not be anything special on a "greatness" scale, but there are 6 consecutive Chevelle albums with hundreds of ratings all averaged out to a 3.8 and if that isn't the best streak on this site, I dunno what is
Sevengill 06.18.17	don't forget Revocation, the Chevelle of death metal (3.8, 3.8, 3.9, 3.8, 3.9, 3.8).
TwigTW 06.18.17	Bowie, 11 albums, Hunky Dory - Scary Monsters, 4.07 average, or 5 albums, Station to Station - Scary Monsters, 4.24 average,
Satellite 06.18.17	bad religion - suffer (4.3 avg), no control (4.3), against the grain (4.2), generator (4)
teamster 06.18.17	Cult Of Luna - 6 straight albums from The Beyond to Mariner ... 4.1 average Fall Of Efrafa - 4 releases ...4.1 average
tempest-- 06.18.17	Judas Priest - 17 albums nah but for real Meshuggah have 7 solid af albums (8 including Nothing re-release and 9 including I EP)
Avagantamos 06.18.17	if it's just averages then gotguts did well (5 albums and an ep all above 4, avg of 4.13)
Avagantamos 06.18.17	but if we're talking just streaks of good music then autechre and fugazi take the cake
Avagantamos 06.18.17	also outkast had 4 albums in a row with an overall avg of 4.2
efk241 06.18.17	Death, last 5 albums avg 4,36(over 1,5k votes each); whole discography 4,22(7 albums, two 3,9 albums)
teamster 06.18.17	Oh fuck yea ...Death has to be on the list , nice one brother.
ianblxdsoe 06.18.17	mm the national
Dedes 06.18.17	Yeah Death no doubt, Candlemass had a really good string of 4 or 5 amazing albums, Misery Signals and Counterparts are relatively up there streak wise as well.
Davil667 06.18.17	Very nice list. Coroner deserves an honorable mention, consistent af.
0GuyMan0 06.18.17	Didn't take nearly that long. Looks like Beatles own that 5-streak so far.
Davil667 06.18.17	m/ Thx bro.
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	Wondered what Black Metal's best streak is. I think its Darkthrone's first 5, avg out to 4.04
bgillesp 06.19.17	bjork- Debut through Vespertine
bgillesp 06.19.17	Moonsorrow, Bathory, Burzum, Darkthrone all have good Black Metal streaks, although moonsorrows is the highest
bgillesp 06.19.17	Also Bowie, Bad Religion, National, and Outkast [2] If you start including jazz there's gonna be a lot based on spot's database, but Sput has very incomplete jazz discogs
Dewinged 06.19.17	Great bands on this list and I'm so happy about 28.
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	Moonsorrow completely slipped my mind.
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	Was looking through hip-hop and think, if Untitled Unmastered is considered, Kendrick has the best run.
neekafat 06.19.17	QotSA: 6 above a 5.0
NordicMindset 06.19.17	Every Time I Die are the Chevelles of 4.0s
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	I almost added Every Time I Die on principle, because the two albums below 4.0 were game changers / trendsetters for popular metalcore.
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	If I pushed out to the Game, Queen would have a run of 8 albums with an avg. of over 4.0
Madbutcher3 06.19.17	Fates Warning has Spectre Within to A Pleasant Shade of Grey I guess. 1 4.3, 2 4.2s, 2 4.1s Van Der Graaf Generator has 5 in a row, 1 3.9, 4.2 average
Madbutcher3 06.19.17	I know I'm posting a lot here, but there's also Yes (5 in a row, 1 3.8, 1 4.6 and 1 4.4, 4.2 average) Camel sorta has a strong one, only 4 in a row but they are 4.2, 4.5, 4.3 and 4.4, 4.35/4.4 average Wishbone Ash has had a sorta erratic but mostly consistent streak for most of their career. out of their first 11 albums, 3 are below a 4, and none of those were consecutive. 4 average. Reasonably decent streak with their newer albums too, 5 in a row, 1 3.8, 4 average. Immolation - 5 in a row, 1 3.8, 1 4.5. 4.1 average. Nasum - 4 in a row, 1 3.8. 4 average. Kreator - 5 in a row, 1 3.7, 4.1 average Renaissance - 5 in a row (prologue to Novella), 1 3.9, 4.2 average you could reasonably make a case for Depeche Mode - 5 in a row, 1 3.8, 1 4.4. 4.1 average Bob Dylan, 6 in a row, 3 4.5s. 4.3 average.
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	What makes the list has been arbitrary so far, if I'm being honest. I've tried to stay at least 5 streaks, and if one dips below 4 then the other albums must more than compensate. Dylan looks like a winner, though.
Scoot 06.19.17	obviously chevelle
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	And Dylan tops Zeppelin's avg, though Zeppelin has many thousand more votes. Thats a problem with this type of system, of course. Personally I still think Zeppelin has the strongest case on the site for best streak.
TheSpaceMan 06.19.17	Fink Ployd were undefeated for a long time
0GuyMan0 06.19.17	Speaking of Chevelle....whats the deal? Are their albums seriously that good? I heard the first three and they were extremely....fine???
guitarded_chuck 06.19.17	P I N K F L O Y D
MO 06.19.17	king crimson - in the court of the crimson king - discipline (couple mid to high 3's in there) steely dan - can't buy a thrill - Aja (though Gaucho is easily a 4)
0GuyMan0 06.20.17	Crimson's kind of all over the place, they were one of the first bands I checked out when I got this idea.
ArsMoriendi 06.20.17	I keep reading this as "best steak in music history" and now I want steak.
Koris 06.20.17	Bob Dylan's entire career
DominionMM1 06.20.17	beatles, zep, floyd, and neurosis
0GuyMan0 06.20.17	Best Steak in Music history has to be http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/35809/Meat-Loaf-Bat-Out-of-Hell/ I guess?
Madbutcher3 07.26.17	morbid angel has that fat Altars/Blessed/Covenant trilogy Voivod has Killing Technology/Dimension Hatross/Nothingface Savatage has Hall/Gutter Ballet/Streets Nevermore has TPOE/DNB/DHIADW Vektor has their 3 releases so far Blind Guardian has Somewhere/Imaginations/Nightfall King Diamond has Abigail/Them/Conspiracy Incantation has Golgotha/MTON/Diabolical Conquest Hypocrisy has Abducted/Final Chapter/Hypocrisy Slayer has RIB/SOH/SITA Destruction has Infernal Overkill/Eternal Devastation/Release From Agony Nuclear Assault has Game Over/Survive/Handle With Care Sepultura has Beneath The Remains/Arise/Chaos AD Opeth has MA,YH/Still Life/Blackwater Park
Dissonant 07.26.17	Nickelback /m
Papa Universe 07.26.17	Elliott Smith has a good streak
Artuma 07.26.17	"Someone mentioned Mastadon's big 3 as the best trilogy in metal history. I wonder if that is true." lol
Demon of the Fall 07.26.17	I'm not even sure which trilogy, for me it's the first 3 but it probably doesn't mean that... guessing Leviathan through to CTS.
0GuyMan0 04.29.19	Damn, just noticed Thrice has an 8 album streak that averages to 4.0 Good fuckin' band.
Scheumke 04.29.19	The Dear Hunter's Act series is a pretty frickin strong streak of quality. Katatonia: 10 albums without going lower than a 3.7 and a 3.9 avg is quite impressive. Leprous: 5 albums without any going lower than 3.9 Saor: 4 albums idem Haken: 5 albums, lowest a 3.8 Persefone: ^^ The Ocean: One stumble with Heliocentric, otherwise quite an impressive track-record over 7 albums.
0GuyMan0 04.23.20	I should update this. Cult of Luna have extended their streak, and Ulcerate has most likely earned a spot with Stare into Death.
Madbutcher3 04.24.20	maybe Scorpions? In Trance to Love at First Sting (one 3.7 and one 3.9, average slightly over 4. 7 albums) Mekong Delta (debut to Kaleidoscope, low of 3.9. 4.1 average. 5 albums) Voivod (killing technology to outer limits. low of 3.7, high of 4.3. average 4.1. 5 albums) Ozric Tentacles (Pungent Effulgent to Hidden Step, 9 albums, minimum 4. Average 4)
aydross121 04.24.20	Virgin Steele from Marriage pt. I -> Atreus pt. II 5 albums all 4.3 Not as well known here for some reason.
Morningrise767 04.24.20	so many great bands/artists on here
DoofDoof 04.24.20	check fugazi
0GuyMan0 04.24.20	ah yeah good options. I'll definitely revisit this and clean it up a bit.
rockandmetaljunkie 04.24.20	Black Sabbath Iron Maiden Pink Floyd
porcupinetheater 04.24.20	Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds got a 7 album run all 4.1 or higher
