My favourite of these would have to be Battalions of Fear, one of the fastest, heaviest Power Metal albums ever to be made, and I love Hansi's vocals in that album a lot.

"Walls Of Jericho", closely followed by "Battalions Of Fear". The other ones mentioned in the poll, I couldn't care less. A little sidenote: I know it is technically incorrect but I consider Gamma Ray really began with LOTF (as it marked Kai Hansen's return on vocals and is the first album of Gamma Ray as we know it today) and this album as the first 'real' Gamma Ray album. I see the Scheepers era more as a side project from Kai Hansen after his departure from Helloween than as a real band. And LOTF would take the third place in my list, if we look at it as the band's first album.

"Walls Of Jericho" definitely. The original, and still the best. xD The re-recording of "The Savage Poetry" is awesome, and it is a great album. The original of it though isnt that great. One of the very rare instances where a re-doing of an album has been better than the original.

We are heading for tomorrow! Must be that one. They started great, and them...started to fall... kkkk just kidding, but i love the first, then like less the others... Walls of jericho in second place. Heavy metal breakdown in third.

Haven't really listened to any of them except for Blind Guardian's debut, which kicks ass, so I might as well vote for that.

I'd say Gamma Ray because I don't think it's fair to count Avantasia, as it's a supergroup, but it would be my 1st choice.

Walls of Jericho. None of the others come even close.
