TOP 10 METAL ALBUMS

[progmaniac1]

here are mine in no specific order

dream theater - systematic chaos/scenes from a memory(cant deside! lol)
edge of sanity - crimson 2
scar symmetry - holographic universe
opeth - blackwater park
symphony x - odyssey
metallica - master of puppets
x japan - art of life
in flames - the jester race
andromeda - extension of the wish
zero hour - dark deceiver

its very hard for me to only pick 10 since i love soooo many albums, but these are diffidently up there.

 

[Blind Guardian]

Opeth - Blackwater Park
Opeth - Morningrise
Dan Swanö - Moontower
Morbid Angel - Blessed Are The Sick
Entombed - Clandestine
Theory In Practice - Colonizing The Sun
Demilich - Nesphite
Dio - Holy Diver
Emperor - In The Nightside Eclipse
Eucharist - Mirrorworlds

 

[Beesson6606]

No particular order here. You can never say any of these masterpieces are better than eachother.

Moontower - Dan Swano
Death's Design - Diabolical Masquerade
Blackwater Park - Opeth
Heartwork - Carcass
Infernal - Edge of Sanity
Empiricism - Borknagar
Draconian Times - Paradise Lost
A Virgin and a Whore - Eternal Tears of Sorrow
Nightfall Overture - Best of Compilation
Nymphetamine - Cradle of Filth


Man, this was harder than I thought it would be. I feel bad leaving out so many good albums. A top 100 albums list would be much easier.

 

[Beesson6606]

1. Opeth - Watershed (probably because it's new).
2. Opeth - Blackwater Park
3. Opeth - Still Life
4. Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
5. Agalloch - The Mantle
6. Edge of Sanity - Crimson
7. In Flames - Whoracle
8. Opeth - Ghost Reveries
9. Ulver - Bergtatt
10. My Arms, Your Hearse

Opeth dominated m/

The man likes his Opeth. I feel like a dumbass for not putting any Agalloch, Type O negative, In Flames, Megadeth, or Amorphis on here. Man, too many favorite bands to even narrow it down to 10 albums. Kills me.

 

[Kenneth R.]

andromeda - extension of the wish

The only good Andromeda Album. good choice.

 

[dan of bereavement]

King Diamond Them
King Diamond Conspiracy
Anathema Judgement
MDB The Angel and The Dark River
Anathema Alt 4
Iron Maiden Somewhere In Time
Metallica Master Of Puppets
Slayer Reign In Blood
Tiamat Wildhoney
Edge Of Sanity Spectrual Sorrows

10 is in no way enough though.

 

[EmeticGore]

[EmeticGore]

His touch is what's missed. I never said Bloodbath suddenly became crap without him.

 

[fsgdjv]

Ok, the first three are unseparable, they could all take the first place, and I only have one record per band, since I could otherwise have filled this list with Opeth and Brave Murder Day.

1. Ulver - Nattens Madrigal
2. Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
3. Opeth - Blackwater Park
4. Agalloch - The Mantle
5. Edge of Sanity - Crimson
6. Isis - Oceanic
7. Burzum - Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
8. Morbid Angel - Domination
9. Wolves in the Throne Room - Two Hunters
10. Bloodbath - Unblessing the Purity

 

[mylovedenied]

Damn this is hard.

1: Opeth - Blackwater Park.
2: Edge of Sanity - Crimson II.
3: The Project Hate MCMXCIX - Armageddon March Eternal (Symphonies of Slit Wrists)
4: Ensiferum - Iron.
5: Children of Bodom - Follow the Reaper.
6: The Project Hate MCMXCIX - In Hora Mortis Nostrae.
7: At The Gates - Slaughter of the Soul.
8: Opeth - Still Life.
9: Ayreon - The Human Equation.
10: System of a Down - Toxicity.

I am missing so many amazing albums. In 2 days I'll probably re-read this and come up with a different list.

1. Ulver - Nattens Madrigal

Dirtiest, most horrible, disgusting album ever. Yet somehow, it's unbelievably awesome

 

[Kheldar]

My favourite albums are:

Metallica:
-Master of Puppets
Nightingale:
-The Breathing Shadow
-Closing Chronicles
-I
-Alive Again
Viikate:
-Unholan urut
-Marraskuun lauluja 1
Down:
-Nola
In Flames:
-Whoracle
Nicole:
-Suljetut ajatukset

There are a lot of other great albums too but these maybe are the best. I can't tell which of these is the best or which is the worst...

 

[EmeticGore]

eeeewwwwwwww,

Not many people here like DM hey?

 

[ColdDarkNord]

eeeewwwwwwww,

Not many people here like DM hey?

Depeche Mode is great, love them

 

[V-GER]

This will be very difficult for me and I am surprised by some of the picks here as metal albums in a genre defining way which is a bad word to me but metal is metal as far as I am concerned and my picks will be metal!
O.k. here we go!
SLAYER: Reign In Blood
METALLICA: Ride The Lighting
SAVATAGE: Power Of The Night
QUEENSRYCHE: The Warning
MERCYFUL FATE: Don't Break The Oath
TESTAMENT: Practice What You Preach
JUDAS PRIEST: Screaming For Vengeance
BLACK SABBATH: Master Of Reality
CELTIC FROST: To Mega Therion
METAL CHURCH: S/T
I left out Megadeth, Anthrax, Dream Theater, Pantera, Dio, Overkill, Opeth, Venom, Amored Saint and a few others. I grew up in the early eigthies so these albums were vital to me especially the ten listed!

 

[L0bster]

So, this is for metal, I'm not letting thru ex-metal awsomeness like Ulvers latter releases either.

Crimson - Edge of Sanity
Still Life - Opeth
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son - Iron Maiden
The Sham Mirrors - Arcturus
Countdown to Extinction - Megadeth
Reign in Blood - Slayer
Moontower - Dan Swanö
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Morbid Angel - Domination
Dissection - Storm of the Light's Bane

 

[Deadlift]

Necrophobic - The Nocturnal Silence
Edge Of Sanity - Crimson
Opeth – Any of the earlier ones
Dissection – Storms of the or The Somberlain
At The Gates - Slaughter of the soul
Death - Human
In Flames – The Jester Race
Allegiance – Can’t pick which album…they are all very good.
Dawn - Naer solfan går ner för
Mörk Gryning - Tusen år har gått

This was very hard. If I did this list next week again I would probably change the whole list. 9 out of 10 bands = Swedish
