Blood Fire Death/Turn Loose the Swans/megaderp
 
There's still too many utter classics missing to vote modern sludge or more Opeth/Katatonia/Agalloch kinda stuff in imo. Where's King of the Dead, Ample Destruction, Morbid Tales, Show No Mercy, Bonded By Blood, The Red in the Sky is Ours, Pure Holocaust, Psalm 9, Relentless, Saint Vitus, Volume 1, etc.? All those and so many more would be far more deserving than, say, Crowbar, Dream Theater, or even the amazing Disembowelment.
 
Faggots voted BG right back off... as far as power metal goes I'd like to see Helstar on the list, particularly Burning Star... maybe Liege Lord - Master Control...

I just don't see the list like that. Just because an album is older or more influential (which is a bad measure, since we are at a particular point in time and therefore cannot judge newer releases by that criterion) doesn't mean its better. Bands like Opeth, Agalloch etc. have accomplished things of the highest caliber- stuff that I consider on par with the great prog rock albums of 70's with regard to composition, concept and theme- which is why they deserve spots on the list.

While I appreciate the influence of an album like Morbid Tales (and therefore will not vote against it), I do not think in itself it qualifies as a great album. That's even more true for a band like Venom (who I don't think are very good). So in short, I don't see a problem with voting for great albums of the last 15 years based on the quality of the album in itself.

I don't see how Dream Theater (pretty much the definitive progressive metal band) is any less worthy than Jag Panzer or Pentagram (who are first-tier but not absolute leaders for their niche USPM and traditional/doom stylings, and less so for traditional/power or doom metal as a whole).

I understand and fully expected Opeth, Agalloch, etc being featured early, but I don't think that there's enough variation between their discographies to warrant three albums from each in the top ~50-100.

When did I say anything about something needing to be old? You're putting words in my mouth. In fact, I think Watching From a Distance and Graves of the Archangels deserve to be in the top 100. And Opeth and Agalloch are some of my favorite bands, but as far as viewing their albums as METAL albums of the highest caliber, I simply don't; at least half the appeal of both of those bands is in non-metal elements, if not more.
