I just got this...it's amazing! Perhaps add it to my list too. I love the EPIC, strange and bloody obscure melodies and sounds. This is impossibly 80s sounding...did these guys just hibernate or something?

Here's my top 10 for the decade. All great albums, IMO, but if this is the best that an entire decade has to offer then it's no wonder I stopped paying attention to new releases...

Avantasia - The Metal Opera
Blind Guardian - A Night At The Opera
Crashdïet - Rest In Sleaze
Doomsword - Resound The Horn
Falconer - Falconer
Gamma Ray - Majestic
Hammers Of Misfortune - The August Engine
Lizzy Borden - Appointment With Death
Not Fragile - Time To Wonder
Onward - Evermoving

Not heavy metal in the strict sense. But if can actually talk about the first LA GUNS or the first two MOTLEY CRUE albums without being outrageously off-topic in this forum, then we can talk about CRASH DIET as well.

I fucking worship that album. I remember listening to 'Out of Line' 70-80 times the first couple of days. The album is perfect. Catchy, melodic and powerful. Perfect. Just perfect.

Never been more serious, love at least 90% of that album (wipes its ass with mayflies like Crash Dïet day and night by the way :). On the other hand, the decade could have been a better one concerning the amount of really good albums released.

I'd hope that an album that's been in the making for 85 years would be a minimum of 90% killer material...

Can't say that I agree though.

Doomsword - Resound the Horn
Pagan Altar - Mythical & Magical
Slough Feg - Hardworlder
Brocas Helm - Defender of the Crown
Sabbat - Satanasword

Has anyone with too much time on their hands bothered to check some statistic? It would be interesting to see the forum's top-10.

Pale Divine "Thunder perfect Mind" and Arghoslent 'Incorrigible bigotry' may also have two votes but they were mentioned once each without title...

Ah forgot about Portents, Omens and Dooms. Gets my vote as well.

It's quite difficult to establish a real top-10, there are more than 100 albums named.

Here's what I have counted :

1) PAGAN ALTAR - Mythical & Magical 7 votes
BROCAS HELM - Defenders of the Crown 7 votes
2) DOOMSWORD - Resound the Horn 6 votes
PORTRAIT - st 6 votes
3) ADRAMALCH - Broken History 5 votes
WARNING - Watching from a Distance 5 votes
4) SLOUGH FEG - Hardworlder 4 votes
SLOUGH FEG - Down along the Deadmen 4 votes
NIFELHEIM - Servants of Darkness 4 votes
