I have two more albums to add to that list:

D.R.I. - Definition
Opeth - Ghost Reveries

I'd get a different Opeth if you haven't heard anything by them before (My Arms, Your Hearse; Blackwater Park or Still Life. Ghost Reveries has goofy synths and isn't very good.

I will get the Rotting Christ, when it becomes available. But right now, what I have posted is what is available.

I'd still go with the Angel Dust album.

Also, if Ghost Reveries would be your first foray into Opeth, heed noodles' advice.

Yeah, I have not heard too much Opeth. So I guess I will be on the look for other ones then get GR later.

Ghost Reveries was the first Opeth album I got, and I rather liked it. Couldn't get into Blackwater Park though

I thought the best Opeth was Orchid the BP and SL are also very good though... Ghost Reveries on the other hand is mediocre.

I feel kind of bummed out. I had the chance to get Behemoth - Demigod (it's good right?) but I was too slow.

So far Morbid Angel is the one I am going to get. 8 people have recommended it. For Morbid Angel though, I am somewhat a "noob". I own only two albums, Altars of Madness (which I love) and Heretic (which I do not love). So if this is anything like their 1st one, I should of got it by now.

But here is how everything else looks:
Angel Dust - 6
Helloween (chameleon) - 1
Obituary - 2
Opeth - 1

I need to ask, is Pink Bubbles Go Ape that bad that nobody has recommended it?

Suicidal Tendencies - Still Cyco After All These Years is a remastered (or re - recored) version of the first album which is sort of hardcore punk (or at least what i percieve to be hardcore punk). If your gonna get an ST album get How Will I Laugh Tomorrow When I Can't Even Smile Today. Thats a top thrash album.


+1, i would only recomend Still Cyco if you like hardcore, How Will I Laugh is a fucking winner, so if you see it buy it.

About the other albums you listed, Morbid angel sound like a good choice to me, but if you could get two albums, DRI - Definition is the other i would suggest, while not their best album, Definition is a great adition to your thrash collection, IMO DRI are fucking amazing if you havent heard them before make this album a priority, if you like Municipal Waste then youre gonna fucking love DRI, these guys along with Cryptic Slaughter are the fathers of crossover thrash.

Haha, I was waiting for you to come in and say what I should get. So I think I will be getting the Morbid Angel and D.R.I. If I still have some cash and it's still there then I will get either the Obituary or Angel Dust.

Ok, I think I am going with Morbid Angel - Covenant and D.R.I. - Defintion. And depending on how much money I have left I will get the other Morbid Angel. I actually downloaded some Angel Dust and didn't like them too much. Not my style I guess.
