Just to be clear off the top. I now feel there should be no ranting about what perfect is to you.
This is just a few suggestions on what albums [and certainly not singles] you feel were great. Albums that you feel all the songs worked well with each other, were in the right order for maximum power and you wouldn't change.
I'll start off with Gojira's 'From Mars To Sirius'. Every song right through this album keeps me going. 'The Link' by the same band I would say pretty much ties, but has a different overall sound to it, which keeps it a separate great album.
I know when most people come to Metallica, they either mention one of the first 3 or maybe the 'Black Album [Metallica]'. But I really feel that 'S&M [Symphony & Metallica]' made the most impact on me. It is THE album which got me listening to Symphonic Metal. Without it, I would never have found the likes of Nightwish, Epica, Kamelot, etc.
Which bring me to my third and final [for now]... Nightwish. The first of their albums I listened to, 'The Poet And The Pendulum' gave me those amazing shivers you find when you just get so deep into something. But I think more perfect was their album 'Once'. That was the album that just worked so well together all the way through. I can't wait for their film/album concept 'Imaginarium' next year! =D
