| Top Albums Of 1984 | 10 | ![](images/albums/7879.jpg-thumbl) | Dio The Last in Line
About the last good thing Dio ever did, this album has some great songs. | 9 | ![](images/albums/11260.jpg-thumbl) | Frank Zappa Thing-Fish
The whole concept around this album is hilarious. Some classic Zappa songs redone, and some good new stuff. | 8 | ![](images/albums/8541.jpg-thumbl) | Skinny Puppy Remission
I go through Skinny Puppy phases where they're all I want to listen to. Too Dark Park usually takes up most of their airtime with me, but I really like this one too. | 7 | ![](images/albums/8785.jpg-thumbl) | Voivod War and Pain
Don't like Thrash, but there are some exceptions, and this is one. Maybe it's just the nostalgia factor talking, but I think this album rips. | 6 | | Mercyful Fate Don't Break the Oath
Their best album by far, much more consistent than Melissa and way more memorable. Come to the Sabbath is a wicked song. | 5 | ![](images/albums/2675.jpg-thumbl) | Deep Purple Perfect Strangers
80's Deep Purple was for the most part not that good, which is probably why their best of 80's compilation had like 4 songs off of this album alone. That said, this album is really good. Pretty cheesy, but great. | 4 | ![](images/albums/5506.jpg-thumbl) | Rush Grace Under Pressure
Of all of Rush's stupid synth driven shit, this is definitely the best. Red Sector A is probably the best Rush song of the 80's. | 3 | ![](images/albums/199.jpg-thumbl) | Iron Maiden Powerslave
This is such a good album. It does drag a tad in the middle, but the beginning and endings are so good that it can be forgiven. | 2 | ![](images/albums/1436.jpg-thumbl) | Prince Purple Rain
This album is so good. I've only seen the movie once and was only half watching it, but the album is just so awesome. Title track is one of the best ballads I've ever heard. | 1 | ![](images/albums/222.jpg-thumbl) | Metallica Ride the Lightning
The best album from their Thrash period, this one is unbelievable even with Trapped Under Ice and Escape both being trash. Title track, Creeping Death, Fade to Black, all essential Metallica songs. | |

09.09.12 | 3 is so good. list could use some replacements though, let it be is an amazing album | ViperAces
09.09.12 | 1 3 and 10 rock. | Cghost
09.09.12 | Beatles suck, sorry | Cghost
09.09.12 | and Let it Be was released in 1970 lol | Chortles
09.09.12 | because yes i'm talking about the beatles since let it be was released in 1984. the replacements
released let it be in 1984 | Cghost
09.09.12 | Oh, never heard them before. They're a punk band though, which means I probably will hate it. I barely like punk at the best of times. | Bloodhail
09.09.12 | ^ i will send my assassins expect them | menawati
09.09.12 | 'Of all of Rush's stupid synth driven shit' - people who expected them try to make Moving Pics parts 2,3 and 4 throughout the 80's are deluded. If they'd have done that they would have degenerated into a parody of themselves and become totally irrelevant. | Chortles
09.09.12 | i'm not a huge punk fan either but the album rules. the replacements are probably more 80's alt than punk anyway | JamieTwort
09.09.12 | "80's Deep Purple was for the most part not that good, which is probably why their best of 80's compilation had like 4 songs off of this album alone."
They only released two albums in the 80's so having 4 tracks from one of those albums on a best of the 80's compilation isn't really that surprising. | Lakess
09.09.12 | thank you for putting grace on here
though all their 80s stuff is good so f u | Lakess
09.09.12 | list needs cop by swans also | Cghost
09.09.12 | 'They only released two albums in the 80's so having 4 tracks from one of those albums on a best of the 80's compilation isn't really that surprising.'
Well then that makes sense. Shows about how much I know about 80's Deep Purple, other than most of what I'd heard was not good. Well other than that album anyway. | Cghost

I wasn't expecting that, but I was expecting, like, quality. | Lakess
09.10.12 | they are quality albums though | Cghost
09.10.12 | Nope, terrible | Lakess
09.10.12 | lol | Cghost
09.10.12 | lol 80's rush* | tempest--
09.10.12 | Van Halen, Anthrax.
10, 7-3, 1 all good. | Cghost
09.10.12 | I hate Van Halen | dsroka005
09.10.12 | Escape is one of my favorite Metallica songs.. trash? really? | JamieTwort
09.10.12 | "Well then that makes sense. Shows about how much I know about 80's Deep Purple, other than most of what I'd heard was not good. Well other than that album anyway"
Their other 80's album, The House of the Blue Light, is ok but yeah Perfect Strangers is much better. I really don't know why they bothered making a best of their 80's stuff when there's only two albums worth of material to choose from. | newjunkaesthetic93
09.10.12 | Let It Be by The Replacements > everything on this list. |
