I love instrumentals (songs without vocals)!
One doesn't need words to convey a message and evoke emotions. Instrumentals also show how metal is very closely related to classical music!
These are…

1.Dissection - Storm Of The Light's Bane

2.Metallica - Ride The Lightning

3.Summoning - Minas Morgul

4.Metallica - ...And Justice For All

5.Judas Priest - Screaming For Vengeance

These are my favorite metal albums of all time! To enter this list, the album must be out for at least a year, as I feel it gives me the time to really digest the record and fully comprehend its meaning.

1.Opeth - Blackwater Park

2.Metallica - ...And Justice For All

3.Opeth - Ghost Reveries

4.Sepultura - Beneath The Remains

5.Rivers Of Nihil - Where Owls Know My Name
