Most of my favorites from '82 are obvious ones that should be on everyone's list (Iron Maiden, Heavy Load, Manowar, Mercyful Fate). Other than those, I like Behemoth - Death Wings and Crystal Pride - Silverhawk.

2. Manowar - Battle Hymns
3. Accept - Restless And Wild
4. Manilla Road - Metal
5. Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast
