Think more along the lines of the clip rumblefist just posted.

Well I didn't know it existed!

Sorry if this is old news, but wow, who knew that the ultimate anthem of anthems had an actual music video!

I bought the 3CD set years ago, gave it one listen then banished it into storage never to be heard from again. No amount of uber cult-talk here or anywhere else will make me give it another try.

1978 disco (gatefold):

Keeping it rather broad...

Bowie-Stage
Dead Boys-We Have Come For Your Children
Goblin-Zombi soundtrack
Heavy Load-Full Speed
Hounds-Unleashed
Japan-Adolescent Sex
Slaughter and the Dogs-Do it Dog Style
X-Ray Spex-Germfree Adolescents

...only one metal album there but it's slim pickins'!

My absolute favourite year in metal, so this is tough. Alphabetised coz I just can't rank 'em. Atlain-Living In The Dark Avenger-Blood Sports Bathory-s/t Bloody Six-In The Name Of Blood Cirith Ungol-King Of The Dead Dark Wizard-Devil's Victim Destruction-Sentence Of Death Earthshaker-Fugitive Europe...

I Wanna Rock. I wouldn't be here otherwise.

Ignoring the sound for starters... it's about the imagery. And, for me, a weird one. Photos of bands on/near trains/train tracks. I have no idea why. If they're decked out in leather/chains/spikes then all the better!

1982 was the last year. 83+ metal was international and that small NWOBHM 'vibe' was long gone.

Sweet had a few songs that qualify

Sad Wings by far.
I'm surprised at the love for Painkiller. To me they were just trying to do a ThunderSteel.

I've got the viking from Stronger Than Evil, one of the Oath Of Black Blood guys and a generic metal heart.

These might be worth a try:

Their song Rise Unto Falcon reminds me of Dreamer Deceiver but it ain't on YT.
