My version is the 1997 one and these are the 17 tracks:

Foxy Lady
Manic Depression
Red House
Can You See Me
Love or Confusion
I Don`t Live Today
May This Be Love
Fire
Third Stone From the Sun
Remember
Are You Experienced?
Hey Joe
Stone Free
Purple Haze
51st Anniversary
The Wind Cries Mary
Highway Chile

Get all three albums they are essential to any rock collection.

So do you think I would be most safe getting the 1997 AYE and whatever year of ELL and ABAS?

What album should I get, Shout at the Devil by Motley Crue or Stained Class by Priest?

Also, what do you guys think is better, Use Your Illusion 1 and 2 or Metallicas Load and Reload?

I'd go with Metallica, I don't care what any purist says.

Is death n' roll exclusive to Entombed or are there other groups that experimented with the sound as well?

Gorefest:

first 2 albums were more just Death Metal, and like Entombed, starting on their third album "Erase", they started going the death n roll route..

Carcass:

Their last album "Swansong" was a Death n Roll album, before that they started out a goregrind band/Death Metal band, before going more melodic Death Metal on "Heartwork", and the last album was a Death n Roll album

Death Breath:

"Stinking Up the Night" is one of the best in the style, them and Entombed were the tops of this style to me. The album came out in 2006.

Macabre:

Their last album "Grim Scary Tales" was a very Death n Roll album, before that they were known as many styles, Macabre were an early Death Metal band, not getting a lot of credit for it.. They also had elements of grindcore, hardcore punk and even acoustic rock..

those are a few. Entombed, Gorefest and Death Breath are the tops in that style to me.

I guess to a certain extent, could count Six Feet Under as well.

"Haunted" alwas had a bit of that sound to me. I am by no means a SFU fanatic, I think they are just meh... but "Haunted" to me is still a fun record, nothing groundbreaking or original, but a sort of every once in a shile thing. As is the follow up "Warpath", which I think is their best.. They are a guilty please band for me, many Death Metal fans will ream ya out for admiting to liking SFU, but whatever.

Thanks for the recommendations! I found Carcass and Gorefest to be the best of your list. Six Feet Under was....average. I think its pretty damn cool how varied the discography of Carcass is. They were truly quite innovative.
