* Any Savatage except for "Poets & Madmen" and "Fight for the Rock". Leave them til last.
* The Gathering's How to Measure a Planet?. Great stuff!
* Testament's "The Gathering", just because Spawn will say it anyway. It's really quite good.
* Def Leppard's "X". Their best album since "Hysteria".
* Anything by Enchant.
* Anything by Galactic Cowboys, especially "Space In Your Face" and "At the End of the Day".
* Kiss - "Crazy Nights". Accept no substitutes (except maybe "Revenge").
* Any of the early stuff from King's X, especially "Faith Hope Love".
* "Whoracle" by In Flames.
* "Morningrise" by Opeth.
* Journey's "Captured". Great live album.
* "The Sacred Talisman" and "Afterlife" by Nocturnal Rites. Rockin'.
* "Return to Heaven Denied" by Labyrinth.
That should do you for now.
