Most Underrated Metal Albums of the 90s

The Top Ten

1 Burnt Offerings - Iced Earth

Such a good album... Even if "Dante's Inferno" was the only good song (which it isn't by any means) this album still would be underrated.

2 Nightfall in Middle-Earth - Blind Guardian

3 Mental Vortex - Coroner

4 Handful of Rain - Savatage

5 Vain Glory Opera - Edguy

6 Never, Neverland - Annihilator

7 The Great Southern Trendkill - Pantera

This album is better than Far Beyond Driven yet not as many people like this album even though it includes the song Floods which has the greatest guitar solo ever

8 None So Vile - Cryptopsy

9 Sound of White Noise - Anthrax

10 Divine Intervention - Slayer

The Contenders

11 Persistence of Time - Anthrax

12 Somewhere Far Beyond - Blind Guardian

One of the best and more challenging Blind Guardian albums (1992). Sadly, most people know only The Bard's Song from this album - a great acoustic ballad but it's not a metal song in the strict sense.

13 Obscura - Gorguts

14 Load - Metallica

15 Jugulator - Judas Priest

@ Visitor wow so apprently having a opinion means I'm retarded but anyway you obviously know nothing about Tim Ripper Owens if he's a terrible person then how come he sang a song called "When the Eagle Cries" which is a tribute to those who died in 9/11 and while I will agree Halford is better than Owens, that doesn't mean Owens is a bad singer he used to be in a Judas Priest Cover band and his nickname is a Judas Priest song.

Such a great album only hated because Rob Halford is not on vocals even though Tim Ripper Owens is almost just as good as he is

16 Reload - Metallica
