Best Albums Of The Decade(2000-2009): #80-79



80.Baroness-Red Album(2007)

Red Album more than any other album on this list, took time to grow on me. At first I thought Baroness was just an above average Mastodon rip-off. How wrong I was, Red Album is highly complex and hard hitting sludge record. Red Album is not only proggy and sludgey it also a nice touch of southern rock that makes their sound really special. It may take some to hit you, but Red Album is worth the wait.


Standout Tracks 1.Rays On Pinon 2.Isak 3.Grad



79.Jedi Mind Tricks-Violent By Design(2000)


With Violent By Design, Jedi Mind Tricks ushered in a new era of underground hip hop. Their sounds was raw, sample ridden and just flat out pissed off. Vinnie Paz has one of the most unique flows around and has the sharp lyrics to match. Paz especially shines on tracks like "Heavenly Devine" and "Blood Reign". Violent By Design is one of the most unique hip hop records ever released and layed down the foundation for Jedi Mind Tricks.
