If you could only own one metal album, which one would you pick? Would it automatically be your favourite metal album of all time?

(No compilations allowed, but feel free to choose from live albums).

Dim motherfucking Carcosa.
Really?????? Cool. I like that album a lot, and we hardly ever talk about Ancient Rites.

I'll give you two guesses which album I'd pick, and the first guess doesn't count. :)
My first and only guess is Arcane Sun. OK, so in your case, you are indeed choosing your fave metal album ever. Interesting....
 
JayK, probably some Maiden album, or maybe Hammers. I'm probably way off the mark.

Nevermind, probably Empyrium.
 
I could never decide... but here is the top 5 I'd pick from

Burzum - Filosofem/Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
Nokturnal Mortum - Nechrist
In Flames - The Jester Race
Absu - Tara

No fuck that. This thread only wants absolutes. You must pick teh one!
 
You didn't pick Hvis. You are not a man.

No but seriously.., Hvis Lyset Tar Oss has it all... Pride, Sorrow, Life, Emptiness, Death...

It is the best album ever.
 
for some reason, the title "The Red in the Sky is Ours" has always been one of my faves. don't know why, just sounds real cool.

hmmm, I'm figured JayK would have picked Empyrium, but I'm not surprised with Iron Maiden.
 
Live After Death is not necessarily my favourite album of all time (top 10 probably), but it pretty much has everything I'd want until the end of time aka longevity up the wazoo. I think it'll stand the test of time the best for me.

Tool = not metal. Not really anyhow.
 
You know what? Fuck NeChrist for my choice... what was I thinking...

I think I'll stick to my roots.... Till Fjalls is the reason why I am in touch with my culture and heritage, and the reason why I make music. So even though I burned myself out on this album and haven't heard it in 2 months, I'd gladly take it over all ANY day.
