Bruce Springsteen

1. Darkness on the Edge of Town
2. Born to Run
3. Magic
4. Born in the USA
5. Tunnel of Love

It was all pretty close, but I love the rawness and screaming of Bleach and creepy grunge vibes from In Utero, and in the end preferred them over Nevermind. Nevermind was absolutely LEGENDARY, and a lot of my favourite songs are on there. It's just that the album was a bit overproduced, as the band members said themselves.

The Nevermind demos however? Nothing in music has EVER come close to them. Absolutely amazing.

 

[Noneedforaname]

Judas Priest (well one of my faves)

1 Killing Machine/Hell Bent for Leather
2 Stained Class
3 Pa.inkiller
4 Sad wings of Destiny
5 Nostradamus

One of my faves also.

However, I'd go

1. Screaming for vengeance
2. British Steel
3. Unleashed in the East
4. Painkiller
5. Nostradamus

Sad wings and Defenders of the faith were next cabs off the rank.

 

[DESTRUKTOR]

2. British Steel
3. Unleashed in the East
4. Painkiller
5. Nostradamus

Killer!!! I love that you also found Nostradamus worthy of a spot in there. I think it divided a few, but it needs a good listening to before you can really judge. I didn't rate the 80's stuff as much, and therefore, have not listened to it nearly as much as the stuff listed.

 

[DESTRUKTOR]

KISS

1. KISS
2. Destroyer
3. Rock And Roll Over
4. Hotter Than Hell
5. Revenge

Too hard to attempt, but I love that you got Revenge in there also. I would also put KISS at number one, Revenge would be in there somewhere, but I don't know what else I'd include.
