The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.

Metallica - Metallica
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Queens of the stone age - Rated R
Nirvana - Nirvana
Queens of the stone age - Songs for the deaf
Tool - Undertow
Tool - Lateralus
Fleetwood Mac - Very best of Peter Greens... (especially green manalishi)
Black Label Society - Blessed Hellride/Mafia
Eagles of Death Metal - Death by sexy
Led Zep II

But albums aren't always the best way - Think steppenwolf - born to be wild, MSG - attack of the mad axeman plus hundreds more

Some great suggestions, have probably heard or own 90% of those mentioned.

I'll second the Probot and Dream Theatre Albums too.

I should also add:

Motorhead - Inferno
Dragonforce - Inhuman Rampage

I used to listen to this stuff when I was 15, only 17 years ago...
When I hear a metal song I enjoy it a lot, but for some kind of reason I listen to other music now: Bruce Springsteen, Coldplay, Chris Rea (Auberge!), Dire Straits, etc.

Led Zep not metal, more like rock but I'll include.

Black Sabbath - 1
AC/TC Back in black
Led Zep - I (or is it II)?
Iron Maiden - Number of the Feast (song about chinese take aways?)
Buns and Roses - apettite for cakes
Metallica - eponymous
Hawkwind - Space Ritual


... struggling, metal is not my bag TBH.

I did include rock and or metal, or anything guitar based. Anyway I am not getting into the this is metal and thats not argument. If you like it, listen to it dont worry what someone else thinks of it.

And dont knock Dragonforce. I got into them back in the days before every school kid had heard of them and Through the Fire and the Flames. They have many better songs too. Sonic Firestorm is also an excellent album (check out Dawn Over a New World and My Spirit Will Go On)
