[Music] Your top 5 metal albums ?

[Lenin]

My list:
1. Metallica - "...And Justice For All" ... fucking awesome album, will be forever on place 1 on my list.
2. Judas Priest - "Stained Class" ... album that defined heavy metal, Beyond the Realms of Death is song with greatest solo ever produced by man.
3. In Flames - "Whoracle" ... this album is just too fucking awesome, true Melodeath, best In Flames release to date, listen to Jotun and you'll know what I am talking about.
4. Pantera - "Vulgar Display of Power" ... best Pantera and groove metal release for me.
5. Pantera - "Cowboys from Hell" ... altough I prefer "Vulgar Display of Power", this album just can't be ignored. Few amazing solos by Dimebag on this one.

Your turn ?

Glad to see another St. Anger lover, personally I think it's an exceptional album.

1. Megadeth - Rust in Peace
2. Anthrax - Persistence of Time
3. Metallica - Ride the Lightning
4. Megadeth - Peace Sells... But Who's Buying?
5. Somewhat a tie between either Metallica's Death Magnetic, Megadeth's Th1rt3en and Anthrax's Worship Music.

Those 3 bands are simply amazing.

2. Arsis - We Are The Nightmare
3. Enslaved - Ruun

What a great thread! It's nearly impossible for me to name my top 5; so instead these are 5 albums that I think are good, however note that this list could go on and on.

1. Cannibal Corpse - Gore Obsessed
2. Decapitated - Organic Halucinosis
3. Opeth - My Arms Your Hearse (but let's not kid ourselves, every Opeth album is amazing, besides Heritage, wtf happened there!)
4. Mastodon - Crack the Sky
5. The Faceless - Planetary Duality
