Essential Metal/ Hard Rock Albums

It's possible that you've glossed over some of these because they're too "popular".
Maybe you've never heard of a few.

1.Edge Of Sanity - Crimson
2.Summoning - Stronghold
3.Death - Human
4.Rush - A Farewell To Kings
5.The Angelic Process - Weighing Souls With Sand
