I'm just listing my all time most favorite ALBUMS, and the Bands linked with them. This list is NOT exhaustive, but I will try my best to update this journal entry if needed.
Mostly you will find BLACK METAL (BM) bands, and their albums, but this list may also include other genres of METAL/Music e.g. Thrash, Melodic Death, Heavy Metal, Hard Rock, Glam Metal etc.
1. In the Nightside Eclipse, by EMPEROR.

2. Sventevith (Storming Near The Baltic), by BEHEMOTH.
