In my opinion, Rhapsody from the Turilli era and Luca Turilli don't have bad albums. Except for "The Cold Embrace Of Fear" I'll leave out the EPs, the live albums and singles, so I'll just focus on the full albums.
Top 5 tracks:
1.- Emerald Sword/On The Way To Ainor
2.- War of the Universe
3.- Dark Fate of Atlantis
4.- Arcanum (Da Vinci's Enigma)
5.- Gothic Vision

Nice german power metal band with a flawless discography. No bad albums in sight, you know what you get with these guys. Apart from the three first ones the rest falls into the good category and I don't really know how to rank them as they are quite equal in quality. I was pretty unfamiliar with the all the albums released after Among the Gods so it's was a pleasant suprise to listen to them all and finding lots of great songs.

1.Mob Rules - Temple Of Two Suns

2.Mob Rules - Savage Land

3.Mob Rules - Hollowed Be Thy Name

4.Mob Rules - Beast Reborn

5.Mob Rules - Radical Peace
