Turn it up to 11

For my first reading, I'm including a list of some of the heaviest, head-banging rock albums I know of. Even if they don't rattle your skull, my guess it that hopefully you'll be able to bob your head to the rhythm.
1Type O Negative
Life Is Killing Me


Filled with glorious riffs and melodies that make everything about The Drab Four so sombre and delightful. This 2003 addition contains only a small amount of content, but with each song, a satisfying kick, allowing you to fully bask in what Pete and the gang had to offer.
2Rob Zombie
The Sinister Urge


While not generally the greatest feat by the grotesque vocalist, Zombie's second studio album, after Hellbilly Deluxe, seemed to be a careful step forward to test the waters of his new career. Short on the song list, but high-powered and energetic nonetheless. Even a little Ozzy is thrown in there just for good measure.
3Rammstein
Sehnsucht


Alas! the second album is unleashed by the outrageous German rock stars, coming to life in international media, ready to stir the pot with popular culture. I'm sure we're all familiar with Du Hast, so much to a point where it is the only song by Rammstein that everyone associates them with. However, Du Hast was a big hit in America in '98 with the release of the album that same year and since then, the band went on to become the most successful metal bands to come out of Europe, as well as being one of the most controversial.
The entirety of this album consists of deep, masculine repetitive guitar and bass riffs by Richard Kruspe, Oliver Riedel and Paul Landers, as well as the constant beat of Christoph Schneider's drums, the soothing and electric keyboard melodies by Flake and the painfully deep vocals of Till Lindemann. Together, the six of them combine their sounds into one industrial circus of orchestrated mayhem...and it sounds great!
4Five Finger Death Punch
The Wrong Side of Heaven and The Righteous Side...


An explosive re-entry into the scene, FFDP kicks it in with a curious dual-album. At first glance, you wonder with all the songs out today, there's no possible way a band can pull an album like this off and still sell. Thankfully, it did and the results were satisfying, with each album representing a good side and a bad side to life. The delivery was solid and the songs were crafted beautifully to show that time and care were put into the making of this brutal album.
