Mine - would have to be Running Wild. Branded and Exiled.
Now days - you get a boat load of songs - perhaps fillers.
Back then - some bands felt 8 songs were enough.
Four songs - on each side of the black vinyl.
I believe Branded was recorded in Berlin - in 1985.

Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell
Death - Leprosy
Death - Spiritual Healing
Death - Human
Destruction - Release From Agony
Devastation - Idolatry
Disciples of Power - Ominous Prophecy
Disciples of Power - Invincible Enemy
Fates Warning - Awaken the Guardian
Gorguts - The Erosion of Sanity
Iron Maiden - Powerslave
Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Kreator - Terrible Certainty
Megadeth - Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?
Metallica - Ride the Lightning
Metallica - Master of Puppets
Morbid Saint - Spectrum of Death
Opprobrium - Beyond the Unknown
Skeletal Remains - Beyond the Flesh

I won't count Heathen - Breaking the Silence, because even though the vinyl and cassette version have eight tracks, I've always owned the CD version, which includes the band's self titled song, and is one of the album highlights. Otherwise, that would obviously count.

Some of my favorite albums have only 8 songs. Two that come to mind immediately are Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy and Opeth's Ghost Reveries.

I love most of the albums mentioned in the posts above. Two that I don't think that were mentioned that are great are:

Aerosmith s/t and Get Your Wings

I'm a big fan of only have 8 or 9 tracks, and 10 tops. Unless you have some really serious songs to add to the mix, like Appetite for GNR, then anything over 10 is really too much.

I think the more the better. Beats having to hunt down those extra tracks on b-sides and compilation discs with unreleased songs as perks.

Album with 13 songs of which 8 are awesome > album with 8 songs with no filler.

I already mentioned I prefer the shorter album anyway--but also, I mean, if songs are not good, I don't even see the point of owning them, just because a band you liked recorded them. Which is subjective anyway, which I guess it also an issue, even when it comes to what would you excise from a 13-song album. We might disagree on the strongest 8 tracks.

Gotcha. I have the reissue with bonus tracks and it has eight regular songs and the rest are demos so that's where I came up with eight. Strange.
