It doesn't matter what genre you take. Death Metal, Black Metal, Thrash Metal and so on. Or even if you mix genres. I just want to know what's your personal top 10 album list of all time.
Here's mine:
1. Demigod - Slumber of Sullen Eyes
2. Cannibal Corpse - Torture
3. Death - The Sound of Perseverance
4. Death - Leprosy
5. Vomitory - Carnage Euphoria
6. Spawn of Possession - Cabinet
7. Gorguts - The Erosion of Sanity
8. Cryptopsy - None So Vile
9. Hour of Penance - Sedition
10. Cannibal Corpse - Tomb of the Mutilated
 
In no particular order:
Carcass - Heartwork
Exodus - Fabulous Disaster
Rush - Clockwork Angels
Skyclad - Jonah's Ark
Faith No More - Angel Dust
Dream Theater - Awake
My Dying Bride - Angel and the Dark River
Paradise Lost - Icon
Alice in Chains - Black Gives Way to Blue
Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind
 
Hard to pick 10 but across the broad rock genre:

Slayer – Reign in Blood
Sepultura – Chaos AD
Porcupine Tree – In Absentia
Ihsahn – After
Opeth – Watershed
Iron Maiden – Powerslave
Frost* - Milliontown
Enslaved – RIITIR
Faith No More – Angel Dust
Dead Kennedys – Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables

These are cool threads because I often find albums worth getting into - eg listened to excerpts from "My Dying Bride – The Angel and the Dark River" and it sounded pretty cool so will check out further...
 
Yeah, definitely give MDB a listen. 'Black Voyage' and 'A Sea to Suffer in' especially. 'Turn Loose the Swans' is another fantastic album.
 
Agalloch- The Mantle
Burzum- Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
Emperor- Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk
Deathspell Omega- Peracletus
Black Sabbath- Paranoid
Black Sabbath- Mob Rules
Judas Priest- Sad Wings of Destiny
Neurosis- Through Silver in Blood
Iron Maiden- Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Opeth- Morningrise

I'll second that. Those are my two favorite doom metal albums.
 
The 'all-time' part is what's stopping me from posting a list. My musical tastes change often. An album I liked for 10 years of my life I might not want to listen to right now, so I wouldn't list that album, even though I was into that music for a longer period than my current tastes. A 'personal top ten albums right now' list would be easier.

I know what you mean, but I did a "all time top ten right now" and came up with the list. If I was asked 10 years ago there'd be a Metallica album or two and maybe a couple of 80's thrash albums, but I can't put them in now as I honestly prefer to listen to what I put up.

It was also hard to exclude:
Janes’ Addiction – Ritual de lo Habitual
Soundgarden – Badmotorfinger
Rancid - …and Out Come the Wolves
..and You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead – Source Tags and Codes
Pink Floyd – Dark Side of the Moon
Red Hot Chili Peppers – Blood Sugar Sex Magic
Supergrass – I Should Coco
Steven Wilson - Grace for Drowning
Propellerheads - Decksandrumsandrockandroll

Fiona Apple- Tidal
