People keep asking me to do a list of my must have albums... so here it is

This list is in no way scientific, just the ones that i think should be in every metalhead's collection.  Even if you're only into grindcore, this is the history of how your music got to be like that.  Feel free to email me your favorites!  And your complaints... 

Top Albums - in no particular order 

Judas Priest - Painkiller (a perfect metal album)

Megadeth  -Rust In Peace (another piece (peace?) of perfection!)

Anthrax - Persistence of Time (last with Joey), Sound Of White Noise (first with John)

Suicidal Tendencies - Lights, Camera... Revolution!

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath, Paranoid, Master Of Reality, Volume 4, Heaven And Hell

Metallica - Kill "Em All, Ride The Lightning, Master Of Puppets, Garage Days (not garage inc!!!) ... And Justice For All

Iron Maiden - Live After Death (one of the greatest concert albums ever!)

Ozzy Osbourne- Randy Rhoads Tribute (recorded live at the St Denis Theater), No More Tears

Testament - The New Order, Practice What You Preach

Slayer - Reign In Blood, South OF Heaven, Seasons In The Abyss

Pantera - Cowboys From Hell

Motley Crue - Shout At The Devil

Rollins Band - The End Of Silence (a very angry record)

Danzig - Danzig 2: Lucifuge (great songs, bad playing plus great production = an amazing record)

White Zombie- La Sexorcisto: Devil Music Vol2

Motorhead- Overkill, Another Perfect Day, Iron Fist, Ace Of Spades, Bomber, actually.. you can't go wrong with any Motorhead record

 Ok, that's enough for now - start rolling your pennies and go pick these up!
