KB's Favorite Albums Of All Time (Only Metal)
Here is my provisional favorite-metal-albums-of-all-time-list! Enjoy!
The first 10 albums are in pretty accurate order. However, after that, it becomes harder and harder to separate the albums clearly. Thus, you can say that I enjoy album x on the list as much as the others in the interval of (x-5) to (x+5). For example album 37 would be as much enjoyed as 32, 33, 34, ..., 42, or something like that. |
1.
Cult Of Luna - Somewhere Along The Highway | |
2.
Disillusion - Back To Times Of Splendor | |
3.
Grand Alchemist - Intervening Coma-Celebration | |
4.
Opeth - Blackwater Park | |
5.
Dream Theater - Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory |

Songs For Your Metal Party
This is my personal selection of albums (with specific songs) that you'd like to play in your next metal party.

I'm currently working in this list (well... in my spare time), so it's not the final one. |
1.
Unexpect - Fables of the Sleepless Empire | |
2.
Korpiklaani - Karkelo | |
3.
Solefald - Norrøn Livskunst | |
