This is basically my list of favorite songs by artists I own albums for. I decided to restrict myself to songs on albums I own (hence no "Balls To The Wall") and only artists which are on Metal Storm (hence no Queen). If you have any recommendations for bands/songs to listen to after reading this list, feel free to mention them below (but check I don't own the album first if recommending songs).

1.AC/DC - Back In Black

2.Accept - Blood Of The Nations

3.Aerosmith - Aerosmith's Greatest Hits

4.Alice Cooper - Welcome 2 My Nightmare

5.Anthrax - Worship Music

This is a list of the WORST albums that I could think of at the top of my head. This will
be added to as time goes on and I think of more!
These are in NO particular order of shit - they are all equally shit and embarrassments to metal.

1.Metallica - Lulu

2.Korn - The Path Of Totality

3.Metallica - St. Anger

4.Machine Head - Unto The Locust

5.Fleshgod Apocalypse - Agony

Well it seems to be the popular thing to do (creating a 2011 faves list) so why shouldn't I jump on the bandwagon too...

Alphabetically of course...although if I was going to put one at the top it would be Archspire (it's unfortunate I haven't seen it on many lists)...

1.Abysmal Dawn - Leveling The Plane Of Existence

2.After Oblivion - Vultures

3.Archspire - All Shall Align

4.Before The Dawn - Deathstar Rising

5.Beyond Creation - The Aura

Purely subjective list based on personal preferences for the year, unrelated to mass opinion of an album or a band's abilities (e.g. Trivium, Oranssi Pazuzu) - many albums lined up to listen to so will increase in size. Also, not entirely in order, middle order mainly just an approximation.

1.Sylosis - Edge Of The Earth

2.Protest The Hero - Scurrilous

3.Infestus - E x I s t

4.Amorphis - The Beginning Of Times

5.Ouroboros - Glorification Of A Myth

This list will expand later and the positions here will probably change a bit as well. An interesting feature is an album in top 10 from a band that's not featured on Metal Storm yet.

1.Amorphis - The Beginning Of Times

2.Omnium Gatherum - New World Shadows

3.MyGrain - MyGrain

4.Constantine - Divine Design

5.Chaos Divine - The Human Connection
