Hey, I'm back since late September. I'm probably only going to go to 50 albums this time around but that may change depending on how many metal (in some shape or form) albums I get to. So far I'm starting the list off with 20. I haven't checked anyone's list yet but will do so once I get through RYM's most popular metal albums. Check back frequently as I suspect I will update this list daily.
