The Number of the Beast - Iron Maiden
This should be way higher. This deserves to be at least #5.
The best album ever, apart from Bruce Springsteen's Born in the U.S.A.
-
Rio - Duran Duran
-
Hot Space - Queen
Often viewed narrow-mindedly as the band's worst studio album. This is mainly due, I feel, to it being a radical departure into synthesizer pop after a decade of heavy rock.
They subsequently returned to their rock roots on the following album, The Works, and when you listen to Hot Space now, it's wonderful how alive Freddie's voice sounds. It also contains one of the best bass riffs ever in "Under Pressure." I really like this album... a lot.

Pornography - The Cure
-
Screaming for Vengeance - Judas Priest
-
The Dreaming - Kate Bush
Experimental and very unusual, but still awesome.
-
Combat Rock - The Clash
-
Blackout - Scorpions
One of their best albums! Songs like "Blackout" or "Dynamite" are pure energy, and "When the Smoke Is Going Down" is an amazing ballad.
Come on. Just number 10, really?
