I don’t recall having seen this pop up in this community. Give a rundown of your favorite albums. Top slot, top 3, top 5, 10… whatever’s easiest to you since I know it can be tough to narrow things down to a specific degree.
It’ll be interesting to see where everyone is coming from in this regard. Could create for a good opportunity to discuss albums, find people with similar tastes, argue that a different album from someone’s catalog is better, etc.
I’ll throw mine down in a separate comment once I get it figured out.
I can’t really or an order to them as they’re all favorites of mine, but there’s a top 10:
Iron Maiden - Somewhere in time
Life of Agony - River runs red
At the gates - Slaughter of the soul
In Flames - Colony
Sentenced - Down
Black Sabbath - Master of reality
Iced Earth - Alive in Athens (I know this is cheating as it’s basically a best of album, but so what)
Kyuss - Welcome to sky valley
Queensryche - Operation mindcrime
Death - The sound of perseverance
Honestly though, I could put together a top “whatever” and still have too little space to place all the entries.
