What I think is funnier, is posting a list of old shit like Priest, Maiden, etc, that aren't really that metallic. There were only a handful of good CDs before 1987, IMO.

"Exciter" by Judas Priest (1978) and "Murders in the Rue Morgue" by Iron Maiden (1980) (two of my all time fave metal songs) are NOT metallic??!

4: Opeth: “Blackwater park”
5: Type O Negative: “World coming down”
6: Burzum: “Hvis lyset tar oss”
7: Satyricon: “The Shadowthrone”
8: Satyricon: “Nemesis Divina”
9: Machine Head: “Burn my eyes”
10: Iron Maiden: “The Number of the beast”
11: Mayhem: “De Mysteriis dom Sathanas”
12: The Gathering: “Mandylion”
13: The 3rd and The Mortal: “Tears laid in earth”
14: Dimmu Borgir: “Enthrone Darkness Triumphant”
15: Opeth: “My arms your hearse”
16: Emperor: “IX Equilibrium”
17: Emperor: “In the nighside eclipse”
18: Theatre of Tragedy: “Velvet darkness they fear”
19: Ulver: “Kveldsanger” (a non-metal record by a metal band)
20: Iron Maiden: ”Powerslave”
21: Limbonic Art: “Moon in the Scorpio”
22: Pantera “Far beyond driven”
