1. Black Boned Angel - Supereclipse
2. Boris - Boris at Last -Feedbacker-
3. Skuldom - Nativity in Brown
4. Metallica - St. Anger
5. Sleep - Dopesmoker
6. DoomSword - Let Battle Commence
7. Gothic Knights - Up From the Ashes
8. Entombed - Inferno
9. Stratovarius - Elements Pt. 1
10. Nevermore - Enemies of Reality

Tough to compare the top few. Supereclipse would be a clear winner if it had the bonus track from the 2005 re-release.

As for St. Anger, All Within My Hands and Sweet Amber are great songs in my fumbled opinion, but Purify and Invisible Kid are 2 of their worst.
 
1) The Lord Weird Slough Feg - Traveller
2) Hail - Inheritance of Evilness
3) Reverend Bizarre - Harbinger of Metal
4) Orodruin - Epicurean Mass
5) Nocternity - Onyx
6) Darkspace - Dark Space I
7) Doomsword - Let Battle Commence
8) While Heaven Wept - Of Empires Forlorn
9) Faustcoven - The Halo of Burning Wings
10) Reino Ermitano - Reino Ermitano

Something like that, yeah.

Edit - Oh, were not counting that Chasm album? Hmmmm.
