I think Priest's "Epitaph" from AoR mentions a few previous song titles.

That would be Eulogy; Epitaph is on Sad Wings of Destiny.

How about "It's the Little Things" from Alice Cooper's Brutal Planet?
I'm not terribly knowledgeable about Alice Cooper's back catalogue (in fact, I only own two of their albums on CD), but I always kind of got that vibe from the lyrics. Like a tribute to your past songs.

Thanks for the reminder, that one name-checks a bunch of previous song titles from their earlier albums.

Journey Into Jade by Cathedral. I think it mentions every album they have done up to 2010.

I forgot Dies Irae by Artillery:
I realized this when I listened to the Legions CD this morning.

Metallica - St. Anger
I suppose I can count Exodus' "Blood In, Blood Out" as referencing everything Exodus did when Baloff was recording and touring with the band.

Alice Cooper's Dragontown (the song, not the album) has some references to songs from the Brutal Planet album:
Open any door Remember everyone you met before Oh. There's a wicked young man Cooking slowly the frying pan And the family of bones are back together sleeping all alone Then there's Alice, dear And all the little things that got him here

I know Devin Townsend cross references his own work a good bit of the time. I know there's a line in Color Your World on the Ziltoid album that's extremely similar in lyrics and performance to a line in the SYL song Wrongside.
