better 4 album run…

[DangerZone]

than AC/DC ‘let there be rock’ through ‘Back in black?’

[DemonFilth2001]

KISS first 6
Dokken Tooth - Dysfunctional

[Tommy]

Metallica first 4 are pretty good. STP, too.

Led Zeppelin. I'm a nutswinger but there's probably multiple groups of 4 in a row that are great.

[Bono Nettencourt]

VH.

[Mister Freeze]

Metallica first 4 are pretty good.

That's hard to beat.

If you mean their 4 worst, then I'm right there with you.

Metallica would be my choice.

Followed by Maiden Killers through Powerslave

Queen

ACDC

[Dyslexicheart]

You can't have this conversation without the Beatles and Stones

Beatles (one of several options):
Help!
Rubber Soul
Revolver
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band

Stones:
Beggar's Banquet
Let It Bleed
Sticky Fingers
Exile on Main Street

And my personal favourite (of course) - The Replacements
Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash
Hootenanny
Let it Be
Tim

You got RTB and Presto backward, but that's a good four album run. Really, you could pick any four Rush albums in a row and have a winner.

I'd also go with Zep's s/t through Zep IV and Aero's s/t through Rocks.

[KISStian]

First 4 Cheap Trick albums.
First 5 Aerosmith albums.

[HoldenSSV]

Rising Force
Marching Out
Trilogy

Great answer

[kytepunches]

Alice Cooper released - Love It To Death,Schools Out ,Killer and Billion Dollar Babies between 1971 and 1973. Four classics in a two year window.

[HueyRamone]

No one mentioning the first 4 Sab albums yet? (or first 6)

[Chip Z'Hoy]

I don't know about "better." That AC/DC run is untouchable.

Alice is a good one; Sabbath is a good one.

I'd say the Ramones, at risk of inviting the "One good song and it just happens to be the hit" crew.

[Tenacious_Dio]

I stand by it.

Kudos to you for standing by it.

I usually just walk around it, and hope that none gets on my shoes.

[The Sacred Cowman]

Dokken Tooth - Dysfunctional

While I can definitely agree to this, I'd also nominate, Tooth & Nail - Under Lock & Key - Back For The Attack - Up From The Ashes.

[DangerZone]

Point of entry ruined Priest having one from unleashed to defenders

[pieceofme]

KISS any of the first 7 studio albums.

Same with Van Halen.

Judas Priest stained glass to defenders of the faith. Any of those 4. Yeah, I like point of entry!

Depeche mode construction time again to violator.

Hell, I would even take scorps animal magnetism to love at first sting over that AC/DC four album run.

[The Sacred Cowman]

Black Sabbath - The Eternal Idol, Headless Cross, TYR, Cross Purposes

[DangerZone]

anyone seriously mentioning Kiss is disqualified

[dmbrocker]

I will say in regards to the OP: that is a pretty solid run of AC/DC albums.

[DangerZone]

Black Sabbath - The Eternal Idol, Headless Cross, TYR, Cross Purposes

I thought about this one, too

[Chip Z'Hoy]

Black Sabbath - The Eternal Idol, Headless Cross, TYR, Cross Purposes

EXCEPT... Dehumanizer's in there.
