Cannibal Corpse's "Tomb of the Mutilated", Cattle Decapitation's "Monolith of Inhumanity" and Napalm Death's "Utilitarian". \m/
That Napalm Death is fantastic. Hell they've been consistently putting out excellent album after excellent album for the past decade now!
I got "Scum" today. They are awesome. Cytotoxin's "Plutonium Heaven" also came but I haven't had a chance to listen yet.

The first two Napalm Death albums (Scum and FETO) are absolute classics, Harmony Corruption is pretty great and I like Utopia Banished well enough. Most of the 90s albums (Fear, Emptiness, Despair through roughly Words From the Exit Wound) are decentish but mostly forgettable and nowhere near as good as the earlier stuff. They really got back on track with The Code is Red I think and have been putting out seriously kick-ass material ever since.
I really love crusty stuff. I'm especially a fan of any sort of good death metal/grindcore mix. Brutal Truth, Necroticism-era Carcass, modern Napalm Death, arguably early Bolt Thrower if that counts, etc. Swedish Death Metal too (Entombed, Dismember, Unleashed, you know all that stuff), since a lot of it rose out of the Swedish crust punk scene anyway.
I'm not a big fan of thrash, but I FINALLY got around to buying Slayer's "Reign In Blood". They're really the only thrash band I like, honestly.

Iced Earth is one of my all-time favorite bands. The Dark Saga (Spawn themed), Something Wicked This Way Comes (Gospel themed, but not Christian worship music), and Horror Show (Monster themed) are their best albums, IMO.

Yeah, I am inclined to agree with you there BurningDoom, though I never really thought of Something Wicked This Way Comes as Gospel themed, that's an interesting description. I would add though that while Burnt Offerings and Glorious Burden don't rank among the band's best albums, they do feature some of their most epic tracks. Dante's Inferno and the Gettysburg Trilogy are heavy metal masterpieces. They are worth the price of those albums alone
