Sort by: Rating | Release Date | Rating Date | Name5.0 classicAgalloch The MantleThe Hawthorne Passage is perhaps the best metal instrumental I've heard in a long time. But the whole album is absolutely stunning.Agalloch Ashes Against the GrainAntonio Vivaldi The Four SeasonsNigel Kennedy has an amazing rendition of this. It never comes close to being dull. His version of Winter sounds ridiculously metal in several places.Gustav Holst The Planets, Op. 32This might be my favorite classical suite. Mars is so metal, and Jupiter is so jolly. (Except for that sad part in the middle.)Howard Shore The Return of the KingModest Mussorgsky A Night on Bald MountainOpeth Still LifeI have a soft spot for concept albums, so this just slightly outranks Blackwater Park for me.Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here4.5 superbAgalloch Pale FolkloreAnimals As Leaders Animals as LeadersAntonin Dvorak Symphony No. 9 in E minor, Op. 95, B. 178Baroness Blue RecordEdge of Sanity CrimsonEdvard Grieg Peer Gynt, Op. 23Peer Gynt is almost never boring. However, it only has 4.5 because of the ridiculous vibrato female singing, which I absolutely hate.Howard Shore The Fellowship of the RingHoward Shore The Two TowersIhsahn AfterKing Crimson In the Court of the Crimson KingKing Crimson RedMastodon LeviathanMastodon Blood MountainMastodon Crack the SkyeMetallica Master Of PuppetsOpeth Blackwater ParkOpeth DamnationPink Floyd The Dark Side Of The MoonThe Ocean Precambrian4.0 excellentBaroness Red AlbumBathory HammerheartBathory Twilight of the GodsThis might actually deserve a higher rating. The classical influences really make it stand out.Blind Guardian Nightfall In Middle-EarthBlotted Science The Machinations of DementiaDmitri Shostakovich String Quartet No. 8 in C Minor, Op. 110Ennio Morricone The Good, the Bad and the UglyExivious ExiviousGreen Carnation Light Of Day, Day Of DarknessIced Earth The Glorious BurdenI'm only giving a rating to the Gettysburg Trilogy; one of my favorite metal epics ever. The rest of the album could go down the toilet for all I care.Iron Maiden PowerslaveCome on, it has The Rime of the Ancient Mariner on it. Before I'd ever heard it, I knew from the title that I'd love the song.Iron Maiden Seventh Son Of A Seventh SonJames Horner BraveheartJeff Loomis Zero Order PhaseKalmah 12 GaugeKamelot The Black HaloKamelot EpicaKing Crimson LizardMastodon RemissionMetallica Ride The LightningMetallica ...And Justice For AllNevermore This Godless EndeavorOpeth Ghost ReveriesPrimordial The Gathering WildernessPrimordial To The Nameless DeadPrimordial A Journey's EndPrimordial Spirit The Earth AflameSymphony X Paradise LostTyr RagnarokTyr Eric The RedTyr Land'Ocean' and 'Land' are oustanding tracks, and the rest is quite good as well. Special note for 'Valkyrjan', which is based off of Solveig's Song, by Edvard Grieg.3.5 greatFen The Malediction FieldsOpeth WatershedIt just doesn't have the standout moments of their other albums. It's not bad in any way, but it doesn't appeal to me that much either.Pink Floyd The Wall3.0 goodAmaseffer Slaves for LifeExcellent at first, but wears off eventually. Still a decent album.Orphaned Land Mabool (The Story of the Three Sons...)I liked this a lot at first, until some retard said they were incredibly cheesy, and now I can't stop thinking that every time I listen to them. Seriously, screw that guy.2.0 poorEnsiferum From AfarLinkin Park Minutes to MidnightSlipknot Voliminal: Inside The Nine [DVD]Slipknot All Hope Is Gone1.5 very poorHawthorne Heights If Only You Were Lonely1.0 awfulbrokeNCYDE I'm Not a Fan, but the Kids Like It!Hawthorne Heights Fragile Future
