Best Rock/Metal Albums
Sunday, April 02, 2006

Been thinking this for some time now. And today listening to some radio stations on the Podcasts, I said its enuf. A compilation or a list of the top 20 Rock/Metal Albums of all times. But this is some list that I put up out here and not necessarily the ones that you all would agree with(comments and any additions welcome though). Don't ask me why 20, had to put a stop somewhere right .... so here goes -

1. Black Sabbath -
Black Sabbath (1969)

2. Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon (1973)

3. Led Zep - Physical Graffiti(1975)

4. Pink Floyd - Wish you were here (1975)

5. AC/DC- Highway to Hell (1979)

6. Pink Flyd - The Wall (1979)

7. Ac/Dc- Back in Black (1980)

8. Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast (1982)

9. Metallica - Master of Puppets (1986)

10. Guns and Roses - Appetite for Destruction (1987)

11. Metallica - Metallica (1991)

12. Nirvana - Nevermind (1991)

13. Pearl Jam - Ten (1991)

14. Iron Maiden - Fear of The Dark (1992)

15. Pearl Jam - Vs (1993)

16. Van Halen -

17. Radiohead-

19. Rammstein -
Sehnsucht (1997)

20. Tool - Lateralus (2001)

'A Perfect Circle' would definitely find its way into this list pretty soon am yet to get hold of their songs (like um ... Weak and Powerless for example) .
