A List Of Great Debut Albums

A lot of bands have great debut albums. Obviously this list is just a fraction of all the great debut albums out there, but it's a start. I'll keep expanding this list continuously, so all suggestions are welcome. My favourite genres are Doom, Black and Gothic Metal, but I also like Progressive, Thrash and Death Metal. All albums on this list are at least worth an 8/10 rating. I included genres of each album as well.

1. 40 Watt Sun - The Inside Room
2. Ablaze In Hatred - Deceptive Awareness
3. A Forest Of Stars - The Corpse Of Rebirth
4. After Forever - Prison Of Desire
5. Agalloch - Pale Folklore

Top Doom and/or Melodeath Albums I Keep Getting Back To

Lately I have found that I am really, really into melodeath and doom/melancholic metal albums. I enjoy other genres, but after a while I keep reverting back to a small list of masterpieces.

This is a list of these albums. They somehow keep finding their way back into my CD player. As it happens, they (mostly) fit in the following genres:

1. Ghost Brigade - Isolation Songs
2. Katatonia - Dead End Kings
3. Amorphis - The Beginning Of Times
4. Before The Dawn - Deathstar Rising
5. Insomnium - Across The Dark

I've added genres and my favourite songs.

1. After Forever - Decipher
2. Agalloch - Ashes Against The Grain
3. Agalloch - The Mantle
4. Alcest - Souvenirs D'un Autre Monde

Gloom, Beauty & Despair:Top Doom Metal Albums Of All Time And Counting...

Here is a list of my chosen top doom albums of all time. This is not the stereotypical doom that is used by people nowadays. Rather, the focus is on the true aspect of the music, i.e. feelings of gloominess and despair expressed in a hearty and beautiful manner through music, the music that evokes wonderful emotions! For true doom metal fans out there!!

1. Swallow The Sun - Hope
2. Swallow The Sun - New Moon
3. Slumber - Fallout
4. Mental Home - Black Art
5. Daylight Dies - Dismantling Devotion

*The List I'll Never Finish (Top 20 Albums)*

I just finished making this list and I hate it already. Trying to put your favorite albums in order is very hard. I went at thinking which 20 would I take with me to a deserted island so I went for some variety. However, I don't think I got it right so expect the list to change frequently but for now this is roughly accurate. **Last Update 09/03/11**

1. Septicflesh - Communion
2. Symphony X - V: The New Mythology Suite
3. Septicflesh - The Great Mass
4. Symphony X - The Divine Wings Of Tragedy
5. Ghost Brigade - Isolation Songs

*Album Of The Year (For Every Year In My Collection)*

This list is the best album of every year that is represented in my current collection. Some years were really hard to choose as there were many deserving albums, others I had one or very few to choose from. The quality of albums drops off pretty severely after 1992 in my opinion. Its a shame the list isn't more diverse, but hey, I likes what I likes. I am however always buying music from many different years so expect this list to change. **Last Update 09/03/11**

1. Septicflesh - The Great Mass
2. Enslaved - Axioma Ethica Odini
3. Ghost Brigade - Isolation Songs
4. Septicflesh - Communion
5. Symphony X - Paradise Lost

1. Ghost Brigade - Guided By Fire
2. Slumber - Fallout
3. Leprous - Tall Poppy Syndrome
