01. Slayer - Hell Awaits
02. Anthrax - Spreading the Disease
03. Exodus - Bonded by Blood
04. Possessed - Seven Churches
05. Destruction - Infernal Overkill
06. Blaspheme - Désir de Vampyr
07. Fates Warning - The Spectre Within
08. Kreator - Endless Pain
09. Sepultura - Bestial Devastation
10. Overkill - Feel the Fire

Good year, and a good year to pick. I fretted a lot trying to figure out what to put down where. Yes, Anthrax that high. This was their best album by far, and the addition of Belladonna cannot be understated. Do I really like that Destruction album that much? I feel like a cunt for leaving off Watchtower. I'm not even sure where to put that Overkill album.

 

[The Ozzman]

This was their best album by far,

Persistence of Time master race

 

[CiG]

Yup.

 

[alex76]

Belladonna never shuts up on it.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

I feel like a cunt for leaving off Watchtower.

Worry not, I have the perfect solution for this. Just replace Spreading the Disease with Energetic Disassembly and the list is great.
