Gonna try to make an Ultimate Metal Mixtape using these parameters:

1. Holy Wars...The Punishment Due-Megadeth
2. Slaughter of the Soul-At the Gates
3. For Whom the Bell Tolls-Metallica
4. Hell Bent For Leather-Judas Priest
5. Stargazer-Rainbow

I did it pretty fast and didn't spend a whole lot of time thinking about it but I think it's a pretty good introductory course all things considered.
