Clonbhoy wrote: It is near impossible. Took me five days and there are albums that take me to a specific place and moment in time. Picking number 10 was the hardest. Only about 30 contenders for it

took me about 90seconds,which would explain why I left so many out

Heartworm- whipping boy
Physical graffiti-led Zeppelin
Funeral- arcade fire
Screamadelica- primal scream
Rage against the machine- rage against the machine
hail to the thief- radiohead
ill communication- beastie boys
Doolittle - pixies
The velvet underground and Nico
Transformer- Lou reed

Iowa-Slipknot

Listening to Doolittle now. What a brilliant album, pisses all over Nirvana's rip off.

1 Pantera - Vulgar Display Of Power
From start to finish a truly great album that has probably bloodied more faces than any other in history. Inspired a new generation of bands. Best tracks - Walk, f**king Hostile, Mouth for War

2 Slayer - Reign In Blood
The greatest thrash album of all time. It doesn't come any faster or nastier than this. While there was also a lot of controversy surrounding it , there is no doubting its plase with the greatest. Angel of Death proved that Slayer had what it takes to go further than anyone else dared. Best tracks - Angel of Death, Raining Blood, Postmortem

3 Metallica - Master of Puppets
Sticking to the one band rule by clonbhoy, I chose this Metallica album though there are 3 more of their albums that could be on this list. A master piece by Metallica which propelled them to fame. The songs are allowed to take a life of their own and breath as if they had free will. Best tracks - Each one of them

4 Machine Head - Burn My Eyes
If you want to bang your head against the wall and cause some damage, this is the album for you. Best tracks - Davidian , Old , Im your God now

5 Guns N Roses - Appetite for Destruction
This is the album which helped shape rock for what it is today. In one swoop it redefined what rock n roll was pre- Nirvana days. Sex drugs and rock n roll is what GNR were made of making this album. Best tracks - All of them

6 System of a Down - Toxicity
Systems 2nd album is a classic that found them millions of fans the world over. Best tracks - Chop Suey, Prison Song , Deer Dance

7 Slipknot - Iowa
I was tempted to pluck for their self titled first album which had some great songs but this is a better all round album which deserves its place here. From the growling lyrics of People = sh*t to the Heretic Anthem , Iowa is an album where the band funnelled all their misanthropy, social ill will , and extreme hatred and gave it to the world with a f**k you thrown in on top. Pure aggression with Corey in fine form. Best tracks - People=sh*t , Disasterpiece , Left Behind

8 Alice In Chains - Dirt
An album of depression and drug abuse with naked lyrics. The genius of Layne Staley is there for all to see. A tortured man with an amazing voice who never got the plaudits he deserved. Down in a hole is probably my favourite song. Best tracks - Down in a hole ,Them Bones ,Rooster

9 Rage against the machine - ratm
Timeless classic which everyone should have in their collection. Best tracks - Bombtrack , Killing in the name of, Know your enemy

10 - Megadeth - Rust in Piece
An album with great riffs and solos. Holy wars is a masterpiece by any stretch, which shows what a metal song can be the way it develops. Best tracks - Holy Wars...The Punishment Duo , Five Magics , Rust in peace


So many more just missing out including Nirvana, Pearl Jam , Exodus, Korn and Mastodon
