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.

The Wintersun self-titled has had surprising staying power for me. I wouldn't consider it something that's squarely in my wheelhouse, but I still love it after... damn, that album is 20 years old...

The album is packed full of good songs, such as Starchild, Death and the Healing, and Sadness and Hate.

but I still love it after... damn, that album is 20 years old...

Obviously, we're both getting old ;-)
