That list is horrible. How the hell does Reign in Blood make the top five, let alone place above any Maiden album? Master of Puppets has the second greatest guitar album my ass. And just for having Korn on this last makes this list lose all credibility.

PS - Guitar One magazine sucks

Maiden and Priest should of been closer to the top. Some of those bands i've never even heard of. Guitar One needs to do some homework. guns[1].gif

I've personally never seen anything great about Sabbath's guitars. Classic, yes, but not great.

These guys are confused... They have Korn and Lamb of God on the same page with 2 Maiden albums, British Steel, and Master of Puppets ...

Ride The Lightning shouldn't be on there(waaaay overrated), The Dream Theater album should be Images and Words(jaw-dropping guitar work),and Pantera's Cowboy's from Hell should replace Vulgar Disply of Power.

Oh yeah, There is no Blind Guardian. Nightfall of Middle Earth's guitar stuff is awsome. Period.
