Top 11 Greatest Music Albums
by BlueFluffyDude 
Every Album on this list I consider a masterpiece. I see not one flaw within it and I believe it has shaped me, my music taste and my sound. But I believe I've heard nothing yet and this list will forever keep extending. They are in no particular order.

My favourite Metallica album. I love every Metallica album and I believe all of them have shaped me but this is one is my favourite due to every track being catchy and heavy.

My favourite Megadeth album, considered one of the best Thrash albums of all time and I couldn't agree more. Mustaine knows how to write complelling lyrics, riffs and he definitely knows how to create amazing melodies.

Bands with more than one album on my list should be considered legends, sure I'm biased but you can't deny that this album developed Metal as a whole in a huge way. The album is perfect on every level.

I see this album as the direct counterpart to Metallica's Black Album, it seems that for two Thrash Giants with different sounds within the genre they can both create very similar styled albums that are almost as good as each other and is very hard to decide which one is the best.

This came out when I was a child and I have grown up with Jack White's guitar bouncing around my brain. No matter what anyone says to me this album is amazing and has heavily influenced me.

Although this band has yet to create a bad album this is the cream of the crop. The album not only showcases hilarious and extremely singable songs but equally hilarious skits that if you listen to it enough you can also recite those word for word too.

Led Zeppelin are a band that can not be touched and will never be replaced. This album couldn't be any better even if it wanted to. Robert Plant shows me why he's my favourite vocalist of all time, listening to The Battle of Evermore for the first time made me understand how beautiful music really is.

And on the flip side to Led Zeppelin, Slipknot shows me how fucking disgusting and rage filled music can be and I love every second of it. Takes the first album (which is almost perfect itself) and cranks it up to 11.

Another album that came out while I was a kid and makes me wonder why I haven't gotten into Hip-Hop and Rap easier.

A lot of people hate Paramore and I don't understand, if you say it's because every song sounds the same, then excuse yourself because you are wrong. This album is perfect because not only is every song completely memorable by itself on the first listen but it is also extremely catchy and the band understands how to write good songs.
