Updated, I added two Rush albums, Pantera and Helloween also. We have 137 albums so far.

They're important albums, Helloween more so than Pantera. This is just a list to give us something to work with. After a few days we'll get into what stays and what goes, the order etc.

You know I respect you 100% but Helloween is Just a pure Iron Maiden rip off in the 80's. Their album has -100% influence than the queensryche album that I posted. That is classed as one of the most intelligently made metal albums ever. I know you are only collating albums but Helloween suck big style. I was there.

I'm just trying to represent everything fairly and when I have to do research on my own if I see an album constantly reoccurring on lists/articles I just assume it's worthy of mention. Thanks for your input I'll remove it. Any objections to Napalm Death "Scum"?

You must be the first person who agrees with me on Helloween - most other metalheads seem to fellate them. I don't think they're particularly bad, and they're meant to be somewhat influential on power metal, but I just don't care too much for them. Whenever I listen to them, I can't help but think that I'd rather be listening to Maiden.


* Candlemass - Epicus Doomicus Metallicus (1986)
This was a great album and incredibly influential on doom metal. Despite the fact it wasn't heavy in a death metal sense, it has been called the heaviest album ever. I prefer this over most Black Sabbath.

* Bathory - Blood Fire Death (1988)
I don't really like all of Bathory's albums, but this is good and certainly very influential too - Quorthon single-handedly created folk/viking metal with this album.

* RHCP - Mother's Milk
Not quite as good as BSSM IMO, but still very good.

* Jane's Addiction - Nothing's Shocking
Urban might agree with me on this one. Great alt rock band.

* Marillion - Script for a Jester's Tear
This wasn't the most original prog album ever, but it was very well written and was around in a time when prog was in a slump. Fairly influential too.

* King Crimson - Discipline
One of the few prog bands unaffected by the 80s slump. Pretty good album and of interest is Thela Hun Ginjeet, which was probably the first jungle (electronica) song.



King Diamond's Abigail and Exodus' BBB are possible contenders, but we should see if others agree first. I haven't heard enough of the 80s material of Manilla Road or the Ozric Tentacles to comment on their eligibility.
