very honorable mentions
Sodom Tankard Pantera Forbidden Saxon Yngwie Malmsteen Obituary Doro Boulevard Cinderella Magnum Dio Black Sabbath Death and many others you can mention others as well, especially in the hard rock/heavy/doom territory, even some thrash (I might learn something new). I actually thought twice before going on with the 90s because some subgenres will be left out as I listen to (very) little extreme metal bands/albums. So that's why they are not there. Someone knowledgeable with these extreme genres should take care of that I guess. So for the fun of it, vote and briefly (or not) explain your choice. |

Wow even more of my favorites on this list. I thought I would have voted Psychotic Waltz, but then I saw Seasons in the Abyss, and I couldn´t help myself. Yes I admit it, I´m an incurable Slayer fanboy

Blind Guardian - Tales from the Twilight World but since it was not included (?!?)...guess I'll vote for Painkiller as a second choice.

Yet another nearly impossible poll.
For me it's a big tie between Judas Priest, Slayer, Annihilator, Megadeth, and Anthrax. I'm going to have to think about this one.

Hard not to vote Rust in Peace. Runners-up Painkiller and Seasons in the Abyss.

Has to be Rust in Peace. But there are so many classics on that list. Painkiller, never, Neverland, The American Way, Seasons in the Abyss, The Eye, Twisted into Form, Tales from the Twilight World, A Social Grace, Lights...Camera...Revolution, Coma of Souls, Persistence of Time, played to death the lot of them.
Fantastic albums not mentioned and further proof that we are still during metal's peak years. Making a top 20 of any of these years would be a REAL bitch. Gamma Ray's debut is a fantastic record, a great shame that it gets overlooked so much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyyvsMC7vXc Artillery - By Inheritance (one of the best metal albums ever recorded. Yes. That good) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5nl4P4CUkI Lethal - Programmed (if you like Queensryche this is a must. Incredible vocals) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndifLvsHdYc Bathory - Hammerheart. Really, really special stuff here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEuezn8lXqA Vicious Rumors - Vicious Rumors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGbk1qj9EI4 Riot - Privilege of Power (GODLY) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGwZ-bKT3YI Realm - Suiciety https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4zo0ZVftBw Sanctuary - Into the Mirror Black https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9fSLtNzRwQ Atrophy - Violent by Nature (I prefer their debut but there are some amazing moments here, like the following song) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAa6fSQ0ITo Exhorder's classic: Slaughter in the Vatican https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgLoFEU5mI8 Mekong Delta - Dances of Death (favorite MD album along with Music of Erich Zann) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O24PIlnfXvU Ah, yes, tech-thrash was doing very well in 1990... Obliveon - From this Day Forward https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM4YYKVQUt0 Anacrusis - Reason (not their best but still great tech thrash, shame about the production, I urge everyone to look into Hindsight, the re-recordings of their first two albums) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShCOCFxPDO0 Secrecy - Art in Motion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6rq8-7vNTI Demolition Hammer - Tortured Existence (thrash classic, aka as deathrash by some) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dqN9O2uSTs Speaking of deathrash: Sadus - Swallowed in Black https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTTAkxnFDwQ Aggressor - Neverending Destiny (GREAT deathrash) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH7N4xkPqiA Master - Master https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJsT5XN82KU Merciless - The Awakening https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSopXxLi-Hk tech-deathrash? Hellwitch! Hellwitch - Syzygial Miscreancy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwO7K9Rk2gA But of course 1990 was a great year for old school death metal (aka, the best death metal there is). Deicide and Death have been mentioned but this monumental piece has not: Entombed - Left Hand Path https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6exw6xT0oo Then a couple of oddities that deserve a mention: Warrior Soul - Last Decade Dead Century (since bands like FNM and King's X have been mentioned, I take the liberty to include this fantastic and extremely underrated band that never quite fit in any box: hard rock, punk, metal, alternative, all of the above) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaDsh0IZ020 Similarly, Primus - Frizzle Fry Mr Les Claypool. I love him and want to bear his children. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU0WbFBMwzs Alice in Chains - Facelift (GREAT album) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Opzq-hxYgfE Grunge, schmunge though, I have to close with pure heavy metal to make a statement! :P Leather Leone is a goddess. Chastain! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Py030IPP06A What a year...

^It was hard not to vote for some of these amazing albums, 1990 was probably one of the best years for metal.

Were I voting on this now I have to say that I think I'd actually go for Annihilator instead. Really addicted to that album right now.
