I'll probably never get a thumb up for this list as there are a lot of controversial albums on it. 2003 is on the other hand maybe the best metal year so far in my opinion. It was here I really started listening to metal and nothing else. The top 4 has had a huge impact on me as a metalhead.

1.Cradle Of Filth - Damnation And A Day

2.Children Of Bodom - Hate Crew Deathroll

3.Norther - Mirror Of Madness

4.Iron Maiden - Dance Of Death

5.Illnath - Cast Into Fields Of Evil Pleasure
