This is a list of my favorite albums that will constantly change, as there are new albums out all the time, and this list is in no particular order.
As a disclaimer, there are many albums containing songs that are my favorites; the other songs are why the album might not be a favorite. That is why a lot of the older stuff that I enjoy is not on here. I'll make a list for my favorite songs... eventually.

4.Nightwish - Dark Passion Play
