00:00Number one, Judas Priest's Sad Wings of Destiny, one of the best albums they've ever written.
00:05Hands down, one of my favorites from Judas.
00:08It has every element you want to hear, from beginning to the end.
00:12It's a perfect album.
00:13My second album would be Metallica, Ride the Lightning.
00:17That changed my world.
00:19Being introduced to that was the beginning of my love of Metallica,
00:23going back in time with their discography,
00:26and then moving forward to this day, I'm still a massive fan.
00:31Ride the Lightning.
00:33So number three, I'm going to mention Chromag's Age of Quarrel.
00:37This album absolutely is still one of the heaviest albums I've ever heard in my entire life.
00:43It has everything you want to hear as far as lyrical content,
00:47believability, and the groove is just unbeatable.
00:51So Chromag's Age of Quarrel.
00:53I would have to go with, it's not a metal band, but they're a heavy band,
00:57and I just saw them not too long ago.
01:00It would have to be the Jesus Lizard.
01:02They're incredible.
01:04Everything they've ever done has been my favorite album.
01:08For me, that groove section, drums and bass are one of the best in the business,
01:13but the creativity and the aggression and the attitude behind them
01:18is something that is unbelievable and unbeatable.
01:22The Jesus Lizard, that's my top.
