I'd like to TRY to have a little fun with this idea I got from another music forum.
1) One album per post
2) A PJC member can only post an album every 10 picks (or every 5 if it grows stagnant)
3) Please cut and paste as you post
4) Please give a brief reason beneath your pick as to why you're choosing that particular album. That way it'll be a little more than just a huge list thread.

Might as well get some of the obvious choices out of the way. Why not begin the list with one of the very first metal albums. You could probably argue it's just another hard rock album now but to me this one is where it all started. Let's see em.

Tough to decide between this and Master of Puppets, but the nod goes to Lightning.

Possible one of the best debut albums ever. Although i kinda lost interest in them after Use or Illusion albums, but this one still kicks ass!
would have gone with either Metallica or Pantera but both of them were picked (sorry what are the rules with bands?) One every 10 picks or whatever you want?

Very hard for me to go any further without showing just a little respect to Megadeth and the album RIP. After several albums Dave seemed to have made his Master of Puppets. one can feel him screaming for vengeance after being fired from Metallica. Holy Wars kicks this sucker off, with Hanger 18s shredding....then Five Magics would've made a great instrumental but throw in lyrics it takes the song to another place, Lucretia rules then the classic Tornado Of Souls which probably has one of the best guitar solos out there.
I know this was to be brief but had to speak of what seemed to be such anger coming from Dave .

Voivod create a brilliant work of artistic, forward-thinking metal on their 4th album, incorporating science fiction and philosophy along with great drumming and artwork by Michel "Away" Langevin and creative guitar work by the late great Denis "Piggy" d'Amour.

Metal is the absolute worst genre to dissect. Pj fans are pretty tight but this would normally be a pissing match beyond the top 25.
Is Rage metal? FNM? Clutch? Ministry? Kyuss/Queens? Any Seattle bands qualify? Mötley Crüe or any glam act? Jethro Tull?
None of them are up there yet and now Ive confused myself and can't decide who to pick. fuck this thread lol

My favorite album from my favorite band. I think they took a giant step forward from The Number of the Beast on this album. Bruce showed that not only can he sing, he's got some serious writing skills as well.
Yes, there are a couple fairly weak songs on side 2 but the other 7 more than make up for them.
