Great year. I think the two albums that impressed me the most were "Dimension Hatross" and "The Land Of Rape And Honey"...just because they were trying different things.

Favorite overall album of the year was "South Of Heaven".

Wow that was tough! Went with Sanctuary in the end, but those albums by Helstar, Exciter, and Judas Priest are all regulars in my cd player as well

O:M is the one album from that poll I don't care as much about. If I were to put all 15 in a list from favorite to least favorite, O:M would be at the bottom of the list. Not sure why, but I never could get into it like I did their EP, Warning and Rage. I thought it was weak in comparison. I don't hate it, and have grown to appreciate it over the years, but it's not a favorite.

O:M was the "ROAD TRIP" cassette whenever Shiney and I were traveling back and forth to school (between PA and Boston, MA). It ended up in the tape deck on almost every trip!! \'arry \'eadbanger

Had to go with Queensryche. I was never a huge fan of the band, but that is one of my all time favorite albums.

half the list was thrash so I dont count those cuz they were on another thrash list. Of the remaining, it was torn between 7th Son and Fates Warning, and I too went with "No Exit". "Ivory Gate" is untouchable.

I'm not sure which.

Tough call between Seventh Son and Keeper Pt. 2 but I had to go with the former because The Evil That Men Do is my favourite song of all time.

Maiden and QR are neck and neck. I honestly thought that Maiden would run away with this poll.

Touch choice but I will go with the Maiden album I know by heart. I can recreate the entire album in my head without listening to a single note.

After re-listening to both OPERATION: MINDCRIME and SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON, I've determined that OPERATION: MINDCRIME is the superior album.


QUEENSRYCHE - OPERATION: MINDCRIME
