Your Top 5 Albums (by bands you've heard 5 albums from)

I love that record, but I usually don't rank live albums with studio albums. But that's probably my favorite live album ever.

I normally don't either but the songs are so different from their studio versions I don't really see it as a live album caus it feels like its own album not just a live compilation.
 
Have you heard all of Lulu though?

I haven't heard any of it.

HYF just happens to be my favourite. Love the songwriting and production on it. Geddy's bass is high in the mix too, which kicks ass!
 
If I were to only list metal bands that have 5 *worthy* albums, I'm sure I wouldn't reach 10 bands. However, I'd probably be tempted to list DCD, Swans, etc. too.
