Overhauled as of May 10th, 2012! Top 5 favorite non-metal albums featured at the bottom.

This is a much improved (and more recently accurate) reworking of my previous favorite albums list, with a few albums added and a couple dropped entirely. They are in order of preference, though changes and the possibility of total equals are still in play. I've axed my undescriptive commentary but kept my genre and favorite song catgories.

1.Crimson Glory - Transcendence

2.Anubis Gate - The Detached

3.Artillery - By Inheritance

4.Crimson Glory - Crimson Glory

5.Metal Church - Hanging In The Balance
