GMD Poll: Top Ten Albums Of 1988

After recently listening to Coroner's "Punishment for Decacdence" fully concentrated with my headphones, I realized how great Ron's bass-playing is and therefore this album went up another three places in my list to no. 6.
 
1) adramelch - irae melanox
2) anacrusis - suffering hour
3) holy terror - mind wars
4) rigor mortis - rigor mortis
5) metallica - ...and justice for all
6) death - leprosy
7) lust - we'll never die
8) voivod - dimension hatross
9) pestilence - malleus maleficarum
10) vio-lence - eternal nightmare

that was tough. there's really good stuff that wouldn't even make my top 20 for this year.
did we decide 'thundersteel' is a different year or something? surprised it ain't there otherwise. i also definitely should've listed 'perfect man' given how much i've always listened to it lol
