I don't recall having seen this pop up in this community. Give a rundown of your favorite albums. Top slot, top 3, top 5, 10... whatever's easiest to you since I know it can be tough to narrow things down to a specific degree.

It'll be interesting to see where everyone is coming from in this regard. Could create for a good opportunity to discuss albums, find people with similar tastes, argue that a different album from someone's catalog is better, etc.

I'll throw mine down in a separate comment once I get it figured out.

I tend to listen to a lot of symphonic metal. I know some folks are turned off if the vocals aren't harsh enough, so some of these are probably a total miss, but some of my favorite albums are:

  1. Delain - The Human Contradiction
  2. The Agonist - Lullabies for the Dormant Mind
  3. Within Temptation - The Unforgiving
  4. Opeth - Blackwater Park
  5. Nightwish - Endless Forms Most Beautiful
  6. Frantic Amber - Burning Insight
  7. Infected Rain - 86
  8. Dream Theater - Train of Thought
  9. Iron Maiden - Killers
  10. Epica - The Holographic Principle

Hoo boy, The Agonist... It's unfortunate they disbanded, but yeah, Lullabies for the Dormant Mind is one of their better albums. Great pick 👍
