Top 15 albums

What are your all-time top 15 albums? They don't have to all be metal. I just put this in this place because all my answers are metal, and I guess most will be, so it wouldn't be fair to put this in "Not Metal!"

15. Tourniquet - Psycho Surgery
14. Tourniquet - Antiseptic Bloodbath
13. Disciple - This Might Sting A Little
12. Metallica - Ride the Lightning
11. Deliverance - What A Joke
10. Mortification - Scrolls of the Megilloth
9. Tourniquet - Stop the Bleeding
8. Deliverance - Deliverance
7. Tourniquet - Microscopic View of a Telescopic Realm
6. Deliverance - Learn
5. Skillet - Collide
4. Metallica - Master of Puppets
3. Deliverance - Weapons of our Warfare
2. Deliverance - Assimilation
1. Metallica - And Justice For All

You might be the only metalhead in history that has Assimiliation in their top 2, top 10, or top 15.  That's not a bad thing, just quirky...

We did a top 10 not too long ago:

Yeah lol, that's been one of my biggest hot takes for a while, I know most people don't like it.

There was also this thread, which IMO is way more interesting.

But yours contains no Theocracy albums, which is unforgivable

Mirror almost made it. Maybe tomorrow it would have made it, lol.

Phil Keaggy: The Master and the Musician

Mortification: Scrolls

Deicide: S/t

Deicde: Legion

Deicide: Once Upon a Cross

King's X: Gretchen

King's X: Faith hope Love

King's X: S/T

I'd also add Black sabbath as a regular spin and all nirvana in there too.


—Actually it's all moods and swings and roundabouts with music so my top whatever is always changing depending on the mood and day, Ac/dc is my favorite band one day, then Black Sabbath etc and so on and so on... but these albums are have always been my main stays, the ones always waiting for me to come back to and always there waiting for me. So in this way they gotta be my top 15.

Surprised The Dust of Years didn’t make your list lol

That's a good album too. Lament has been one of my favorite albums ever since I walked out of the Christian book store and popped the cassette into my Walkman, and then later the disc into my cd into my Discman. wore both those out from over use. Then the album went out of print so had to fork out a hefty sum to get a second hand copy that was in good nick, and wasn't going to pass it up because I though that would probably be the last opportunity to own it. Then years later they came out with new editions etc

Also remember seeing the cover and just staring at it in the shop and my brain exploding, and the music matched the cover perfectly! Use to walk around oblivious to everything with that album in my blaring ears even at Youth group etc etc

Dude, you’re missing all your favorite Rush albums! That’s like if Kerrick forgot to put Slayer on his list.
