Best Album Closers

A lot has already been said about the best album openers in metal. Not that much do we talk about abum closers though.
I guess for me the ending of an album is at least as important as its start.
I have put here my favourite album closers in all metal of all time, in descending order of my preference. And I am looking forward to your comments on it.

1.Iron Maiden - Powerslave
2.Iced Earth - Burnt Offerings
3.Mercyful Fate - Melissa
4.Opeth - Morningrise
5.Slayer - Seasons In The Abyss

Empowering Albums For Powerless Losers

This is a list of all the power metal albums I have listened to that are worth remembering. Like my other genre lists, this is not meant to be a definitive guide to power metal or a binding judgment on what power metal is or is not. The list exists purely for my own organizational purposes and may contain bands or albums that are not strictly True Knights of the Eternal Thundersword.

The first cluster includes my favorite albums in the genre (and a significant number of my all-time favorites); beyond that, they are listed by rating from 9/10 down to 6/10 and alphabetically within each bracket.

Last updated November 27, 2021.

1.Blind Guardian - Nightfall In Middle-Earth
2.Blind Guardian - Imaginations From The Other Side
3.Blind Guardian - Somewhere Far Beyond
4.Jag Panzer - Thane To The Throne
5.X Japan - Art Of Life

Gamma Ray Discography (Ranked)

My personal ranking of all the Gamma Ray studio albums. My top 3 sometimes switches, but I do consider Power Plant to be the best power metal album of the 90's so it makes sense to keep it at number 1 here. The albums of the early 90's have grown on me over the years and I am starting to enjoy them more than their latest efforts. Albums like Sigh No More, Empire Of The Undead and To The Metal! have some great tracks, but I find them all to be pretty average. Sigh No More nearly made it a little higher up thanks to "One With The World", but no...it is surely the weakest Gamma Ray album.

1.Gamma Ray - Power Plant
2.Gamma Ray - Land Of The Free
3.Gamma Ray - Somewhere Out In Space
4.Gamma Ray - No World Order
5.Gamma Ray - Heading For Tomorrow

Gamma Ray... Best :o) To Worst :o(

From 1 to 4: all albums are classics, you can switch the order, it depends on the day for me...
From 5 to 10: all good records, the order doesn't matter either.
11: I don't know what's wrong with this one... maybe everything... I own all their stuff before this but I'm not purchasing anymore. The last track (I Will Return) is the Gamma Ray I like; one out of ten? Empire Of The Pale Confusion.

1.Gamma Ray - Land Of The Free
2.Gamma Ray - Somewhere Out In Space
3.Gamma Ray - Power Plant
4.Gamma Ray - Heading For Tomorrow
5.Gamma Ray - No World Order

This is a guide list to some of the greatest voices in the history of rock & metal music, ranked in alphabetical order, by singer's name. I know that there are many more great singers/vocalists out there and that some really good singers were left out of this list.

The criteria by which the following singers were selected are:
1. Anything regarding the voice and the vocal performance (voice quality, technique, range, originality, creativity, etc.)
2. Influence - effect (if a singer has been an influence on other singers or a musical genre)
3. My personal taste

The form of the list is "Band - Trademark Album For The Singer"
"Name of the singer" (Bands he/she has joined)
