Here it goes, and I'm naming one per band , no duplicates, otherwise there would be half of Bodom on the list! and I'm sticking to nothing before 1980 either Heheheee
1.
Alcatrazz - No Parole from Rock n Roll (Yes! Every song on here is good, Yngwie is good, Graham Bonnet is good and yes it kicks that much ass to me)
2.
Children of Bodom - Something Wild (What can I say?)
3.
X Japan - Blue blood (Japanese People can play Metal!)
4.
Megadeth - Rust in Peace (Let's all hail Mustaine ok?)
5.
In Flames - Whoracle (BUahahahaha It's the Jesper boys)
6.
Stratovarius - Visions (Anything that Timo Tolkki composes probably kicks ass)
7.
Edguy - Theater of Salvation (Tobias Sammet is a metal genius!)
8.
Sonata Arctica - Silence (Somewhat like Stratovarius, but they can still write good melodies)
9.
Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden (It's Maiden!)
10.
Helloween - Keeper of the 7 Keys Pt 2 (Power Metal at it's finest)
