Simple ranking of all my favorite albums. Favorite song from the album in the notes. Sure to change/expand as I learn and explore more within metal.
2023: This was starting to get too long so I split it into separate lists for albums at each ranking 10 to 7. This list will no longer be updated.

My personal ranking of all the Gamma Ray studio albums. My top 3 sometimes switches, but I do consider Power Plant to be the best power metal album of the 90's so it makes sense to keep it at number 1 here. The albums of the early 90's have grown on me over the years and I am starting to enjoy them more than their latest efforts. Albums like Sigh No More, Empire Of The Undead and To The Metal! have some great tracks, but I find them all to be pretty average. Sigh No More nearly made it a little higher up thanks to "One With The World", but no...it is surely the weakest Gamma Ray album.

1.Gamma Ray - Power Plant

2.Gamma Ray - Land Of The Free

From 1 to 4: all albums are classics, you can switch the order, it depends on the day for me...
From 5 to 10: all good records, the order doesn't matter either.
11: I don't know what's wrong with this one... maybe everything... I own all their stuff before this but I'm not purchasing anymore. The last track (I Will Return) is the Gamma Ray I like; one out of ten? Empire Of The Pale Confusion.
