Pantera "Cowboys From Hell" -- Has a lisetniung quality of a seasoned metal band. Very good all the way through and heavy as shite for an awkward, unlabeled 1990.

Uhhh...I don't know how to tell you this Man, but Pantera has a dark and borderline secret past.

Agree with you on Plastic Ono Band. It's arguably Lennon's best work, surpassing The Beatles because it's a cohesive work.

Others:

Hendrix first album, mentioned once before.

Modern Lovers. First and only album from the original band is great.

The Velvet Underground & Nico.

Elvis Costello - My Aim is True.

Elvis Presley Sun Sessions. His best work.

My best friend was in Razor White with Phil when he left for Pantera. Pantera put out some shitty metal before Cowboys. Amazing how well they put everything together for Cowboys. And Vulgar might be my all time favorite album.

Power Metal is a legitimately great album and features some of Diamond Darrell's best work. Not to mention Phil's vocals were still good.

Forgot about that one. Good call.

I would like to throw out Korn's debut album. It was just different when it came out.

Great one! Saw her at the House of Blues in New Orleans when the album came out. Put on quite a show for a 17 year old in such an intimate setting.
