Donde tomó en cuenta la opinión de varios íconos del género.
La revista Rolling Stone, ha desatado una serie de comentarios de parte de los fanáticos del metal al publicar una lista de “Los mejores 100 discos del Metal de todos los tiempos”, donde según informaron, participaron estrellas como Ozzy Osbourne, Rob Halford, Lars Ulrich y hasta Corey Taylor para llevarla a cabo.
La polémica nace de la inclusión de bandas que no forman parte del género, como Evanescence con su disco Fallen. Sin embargo, la revista alegó que no tomó en cuenta a grupos como AC/DC ni Guns N’ Roses por considerarlos “rock” sin ese “factor x” que le da el toque de “metal”, o mucho menos algo que haya sido editado antes de 1970, como Kiss o Alice Cooper, pues su idea era mostrar “la diversidad, poder y legado” del metal.
