Alot of good ones there Ult.the Merciless Death cover I love and also the new Ultimatum cd.also worth a mention is AMULANCE-The Rage Within and the Aftermath

Good choices. I would have added some Maiden, if only for the fact that when I was young and didn't even know who they were, I saw their covers and thought "They must be cool"
