[Hellraiser212]

my humble top ten

1- Judas priest - Painkiller
2- Iced Earth - Night of the storm rider
3- Sodom - Persecution mania
4- Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell
5- Blind Guardian - Imaginations from the other side
6- Iron Maiden - Powerslave
7- Grave Digger - Excalibur
8- Death - Symbolic
9- Bolt Thrower - For the once loyal
10- Dissection - Storm of light's bane

it's a tough call, i just grabbed the ten that i played the most on the CD player the last years, and both iced earth and blind guardian actually got me into metal, desert rain and mordred's song will always be very special for me, very nostalgic.
