Top 5 metal records of all time. Period. This record blew the doors open and combined melody and brutality in a way that had never been done before, and set the gold standard for melodic death metal. This record marks the year in which the basic, cookie-cutter, boring, worn out Nu-Metal was finally stomped down by the global movement of both melodic death metal and metalcore. This record, along with a few others, changed the world of music forever.
