Tried not to put the same artist on more than once, but fecking hell, some bands are just epic to the max. I feel these are the albums I can always go back to and still enjoy no matter what. I find it strange my Maiden albums when I thought about it, each is completely different. Sorry for the basically rock/metal genre, but I get bored of other genres musics once I've heard it a few times.. Now I've listed them I can't decide what to listen to tonight :s

Virtual XI made it on there before Number of the Beast, Somewhere In Time, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, Piece of Mind and a host of others i can't think of right now? I mean, i do like Virtual XI but it doesn't beat any of those for me.

 

[One Night Only]

Virtual XI made it on there before Number of the Beast, Somewhere In Time, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, Piece of Mind and a host of others i can't think of right now? I mean, i do like Virtual XI but it doesn't beat any of those for me.

I think it's because it's a completely different style of album, with some epic songs on, different vocalist too (Who is nowhere near the standards of Dickinson). I don't know why I rate it above some of those you've mentioned, I find it strange myself. You must listen to the Sentenced album I listed, and also the King Diamond one Swaggy King Diamonds is class. Story albums rule!
