The Metal Opera Pt. IIThe Metal Opera Pt. II by Avantasia

Beautiful. Actually both of the Avantasias are tied for first. Tobias Sammet has brought all of the true metal gods together for two thunderous cds.

Valley of the DamnedValley of the Damned by DragonForce
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $6.73
This is great musicianship. Being a guitarist myself, i know what is and isn't difficult. This is. The melodies are super catchy and the guitar solos go on forever.
Angels CryAngels Cry by Angra
Buy new: $15.98 / Used from: $12.20
This is a Progressive metal gem. Angra hasn't been as good since. Andre matos is the key here. Every song aside from the last 2 are brilliant. It was remixed so it has great sound quality.
RitualRitual by Shaman

Andre Matos is back at it with his new band. The folk influences are awesome.

Elements, Pt. 1Elements, Pt. 1 by Stratovarius

I like pt 1 better than part 2. Stratovarius just keeps getting better.
Beethoven's Last NightBeethoven's Last Night by Trans-Siberian Orchestra
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $8.98
This is a totally awesome album. The only reason it is this far back is the slow songs. Paul O'Niel has thought his heart out and come out victorious. GREAT ALBUM
Burning Down the OperaBurning Down the Opera by Edguy
Buy used from: $9.74
This is my top live album in front of rush in rio(rush), rock in rio(maiden), and live in london(Priest) the should've done a dvd here. It give a feeling like you are at the concert.
Hate Crew DeathrollHate Crew Deathroll by Children of Bodom
Buy used from: $7.99
Another great bodom album. Many people put this one over follow the reaper but i disagree. Fav Tracks: Downfall, Needled 24/7, Bodom Beach Terror, Triple Corpse Hammerblow) Great names, huh?
Iron Maiden - Rock In Rio (2DVD)Iron Maiden - Rock In Rio (2DVD)
Buy new: $18.49 / Used from: $6.48
Awesome live performance by 80s metal NWOBHM gods. It has all my fav tracks. It is however missing the cliravoyent, heaven can wait, and wasted years
Nightfall in Middle-EarthNightfall in Middle-Earth by Blind Guardian
Buy used from: $6.79
The widely acclaimed top album from Blind Guardian. Andre Olbrich finds the catchiest guitar melodies like those in mirror mirror. Too many 20 second tracks.
Beyond AbilitiesBeyond Abilities by Warmen
Buy used from: $7.14
Janne Warmen, keyboardist of Bodom, Is brilliant here. He plays very well while avoiding being a show- off. His backing crew also does a great job.
King of the Nordic TwilightKing of the Nordic Twilight by Luca Turilli
Buy new: $16.98 / Used from: $11.98
Luca and rhapsody's best work. A few slow songs but ancient forest of elves and kings of the nordic twilight make up for it.
Winterheart's GuildWinterheart's Guild by Sonata Arctica
Buy used from: $34.98
Not sonata arcticas best. I also have live in tokyo jap version. Listen to broken, victorias secret, and champagne bath.
Alice Cooper - Brutally Live (DVD & CD)Alice Cooper - Brutally Live (DVD & CD)
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $11.01
Hellarius, Horrific, Gruesome. Alice Cooper is every thing on stage. Definately one of the best music dvds. It features a drum solo and decpitation.
Atlantic AscendantAtlantic Ascendant by Bal-Sagoth
Buy new: $50.98 / Used from: $49.99
Im not really into black metal but these guys are good. I gues i like the symphonic warcraft sound.
Megadeth - Rude AwakeningMegadeth - Rude Awakening

Awesome dvd for the music. All of megadeth's greatest hits. These guys arent good stage acts though.
