My 20 Favorite Metal Albums Of All Time

 Not long ago I started putting together a list of my favorite heavy metal albums. My plan is to go as high as to 100. I currently am up to 73 so I am getting close to my goal. In the meantime, I decided to post a sample of my list and what some of it will look like. This is a general ranking, not official so when I post my 100 favorite metal albums list, the albums here will most likely be ranked elsewhere.
