These are the albums which I like the most. Since I have not listened to a lot of albums( let's say, max 400 for me), it would be pretentious to make a list of my 100 favorite albums, so I keep this…

2.Esoteric - The Maniacal Vale

3.Lurker Of Chalice - Lurker Of Chalice

4.Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven

2.Candlemass - Nightfall

3.Reverend Bizarre - In The Rectory Of The Bizarre Reverend

3.Deathspell Omega - Si Monumentum Requires, Circumspice
