Max Cavalera wrote some of the best thrash metal songs with Sepultura. With Soulfly he had some ups and downs, but there were always songs with great riffs. My first intention was to make a Sepultura Top Five but I came to the conclusion that it would be a pretty easy Top Five so I changed to Soulfly.

Bad Religion is one of the bands that defines punk rock for me. Greg Graffin's lyrics always make me think, whether they're are about politics, religions or human relations. Mr. Brett also wrote some of their best and more melodic songs, like "Skyscraper". In fact, Bad Religion is a band with a rare chemistry between their members, who have been together for such a long time and still can write memorable songs. So I've decided to list their best albums which was a really complicated task. Also I've made two playlist dedicated to them on Spotify, 'best of' and 'underrated classics': 5) Suffer Release Date: September 8, 1988 4) The Gray Race Release Date: February 27, 1996 3) Against the Grain Release Date: November 23, 1990 2) Recipe for Hate Release Date: September 21, 1993                                           1) The Empire S...
