So what's your Top 5?

Man, the new Sanctuary may end up making it in my top 5, it rules. Also that Silent Call album is awesome!!
Agreed. I've listened to it a half dozen times now and it just keeps getting better. Significantly better than the most recent Nevermore disc.

Elvenking may wiggle their way into my top 5... what an amazing album!
I checked out the new Elvenking record based on this thread, but I'm just not feeling it. The singer is enjoyable, the production is very good, the musicianship is solid, but the songs and overall sound of the band do nothing for me. I'm going to give it another shot, but I'm not hopeful.

ROS is better than anything Angra has or will ever put out.
I don't even think Judas Priest would agree with that statement.
