Metal community, all subgenres welcome.

It only seemed fitting to have Lemmy himself as the icon.

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.

4/5 Khanate - Khanate/Things Viral

6-9 Black Sabbath - first 4 albums

10 Gorguts - Obscura

Which Acid Bath album is in the top spot? You MUST choose. (sorry)

And fuck yeah, Obscura is brilliant.

Definitely When the Kite String Pops, it's my favorite album.

Right on. I feel like with them it's one of those deals where there is no wrong answer. Both albums are so good it makes complete sense why someone might like either one over the other. I go for Paegan... myself, but When the Kite String Pops is still pinnacle level stuff.

Agreed. As far as I am concerned, both perfect albums, or as close as anything can get. WTKSP has my favorite tone/vibe, but Grave Flower is my favorite song. Like you said, no wrong answer. Except maybe not digging Acid Bath.
