Top Ten Metal Albums of 1989

The Top Ten
1 Annihilator - Alice In Hell

Without a doubt, the best. All time favorite.

2 Sepultura - Beneath the Remains
3 Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness
4 Exodus - Fabulous Disaster
5 Overkill - The Years of Decay

This is by far the best! Not just on the list, but Overkill's best album in general. Love the progression, mixed in with thrash.

6 Kreator - Extreme Aggression
7 Voivod - Nothingface

It's insane how catchy this album is on first listen, despite the extremely complex and jazzy nature of the music.

Seeing Voivod here is a pleasant surprise - very good job Ananya, cool selection.

Monster album by a great band!

8 Savatage - Gutter Ballet

I was pleasantly surprised to see this band here - this album really deserves to be in the top 10.

9 Blind Guardian - Follow the Blind

Some Blind Guardian classics came from this album - Valhalla, Banish from Sanctuary

10 Severed Survival - Autopsy
The Contenders
11 Skid Row - Skid Row
12 No More Color - Coroner

Easily the best album by the band and one of the best thrash albums ever made.

My fave song from this album - Tunnel of Pain.

13 Agent Orange - Sodom
14 Symphonies of Sickness - Carcass
15 Climbing the Walls - Wrathchild America
16 Junkyard - Junkyard
