Desert Island Albums

Iron Maiden - A compilation album with Infinite Dreams on it
Ocean Machine - Biomech
Lykathea Aflame - Elvenefris
Radiohead - Kid A
Merzbow - 1930
Deathspell Omega - Si Monumentum Requires, Circumspice
Candlemass - Nightfall
XTC - Skylarking
Ulver - Perdition City
The Final Fantasy VII soundtrack - selected parts of it if I'm not allowed to take the entire thing

I'd need a certain degree of variety, and preferably some complexity, and I also tried to pick long albums, and albums I haven't listened to all that much but know they are worth the time anyway.
 
Metallica-And Justice for All
Candlemass-first two
Koenjihyakkei-Hundred Sights of Koenji
Cadaver-In Pains
Magma-Mekhanik Destruktiw Kommandoh
Can-Ege Bamyasi

Maybe something else
 
Metallica - Ride the Lightning
Iced Earth - Alive in Athens
Alchemist - Austral Alien
Faith No More - Angel Dust
Wintersun - Wintersun
Kalmah - Swampsong
Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness
Opeth - Still Life
Bloodbath - Nightmares Made Flesh
Amon Amarth - With Oden on Our Side
Suffocation - Pierced from Within
