Spoken like a true elitist. I bet you believe "Morningrise" is their coup de grâce.

1. United Abominations - Megadeth
2. Rust In Peace - Megadeth
3. Ride the Lightening - Metallica
4. Houdini - Melvins
5. Inhaler - Tad

Okay, 4 and 5 are grunge/metal. There's still metal in them.

I was speaking in gest, however most musical snobs, and I do consider myself snobby at times, have the notion, that bands that are overly hyped and popular can in no way be good. It's basically a slight at the popular masses who consume music only because they think it's good based on WoM or sales totals, or chart rankings, but know very little in regards to the quality of music they're listening to. My point is that on occasion, over hyped bands like Opeth and Megadeth, actually deserve the props. I also consider, RIP one of the top three thrash records ever, but in this case...I ain't being elitist.

i guess when it comes to this glam/thrash metal stuff
Edguy- hellfire club
Edguy- Rocket ride
Ratt- the one with round and round
soundgarden- black hole sun

Opeth doesn't deserve the props. Megadeth does.

1. Iron Maiden - Powerslave

This is one of the most prominent metal bands of all time, and this album found them in their prime. Personal Fav.

2. Black Sabbath - Paranoid

Classic.

3. White Zombie - La Sexorcisto Devil Music Vol. 1

Great 90's metal, crunchy riffs, driving bass, ass kickin' drums, and Rob Zombie when he was still great.

4. Metallica - And Justice for All...

Not my favorite band, and I certainly have ZERO respect for these induviduals, but this album is great.

5. Opeth - My arms, Your Hearse

Great album that defines the metal sound of the time.

I liked Sacrament too. Not as much as their earlier stuff but WAY more than their newest one, Wrath, which just sounds like a generic poop of noise.
