Top 5 Metal Albums

Metallica - And Justice For All
Opeth - Deliverance
Amorphis - Elegy
Alice in Chains - Dirt
Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power

Opeth could easily fill 3 of my top 5 spots. Yup, they're that good, but I decided to share the love...
 
Black Sabbath - tie between Heaven & Hell and Paranoid
Carcass - Necroticism: Descanting The Insalubrious
Entombed - Clandestine
Iron Maiden - Live After Death (cop out I know, but I can't decide which studio album I like best and this is probably the best live album ever created)
Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
Madder Mortem - All Flesh is Grass
Neurosis - A Sun That Never Sets
Opeth - MAYH

Not quite a top 5 but screw it, I can't narrow it down any further.
