Are you able to name...

Hmmm....if you have to think about it, does that automatically make your answer a "no"?
 
Solidifying a Top 10 is much more difficult for me. And I can't really do any "ranking" beyond #1. I pretty much have about 25 to 35 ties for second place.

That right there? A very solid choice. And it really gets close for me as well.

My vinyl copy skips right at the intense part of Ticks and Leeches. No fair!
 
Ulver "Bergtatt"



Edit: It's actually odd how quickly this came to me. I only listen to this album once every year or two. But I don't think there is a single recording that quite comes close to capturing the atmosphere or range of emotions I feel when I listen to this. So, I put it it forth as my número uno
 
I'm going to purchase every #1 album in this thread. I already have and adore most mentioned.

Bergtatt, Pale Folklore, DMDS, Lateralus... all in my Top 27 I say.
 
As much as I hate comparing/rating music it would probably be either Ever The Silver Cord be Loosed, Heavier than Thou, Black Pyramid, Mythical & Magical, Nordland (I) or Omnivium.
After much thought, no I cant name a single favorite from any genre, let alone overall. But those listed are strong contenders.
