I think I saw them this year when they toured with Parkway. Played an alright set.

Not the biggest post-hardcore fan but that was pretty good. Kinda reminds me of From Autumn to Ashes.

Excellent albums there mate! Can't help but have a stab at em whilst adding my own 2 cents...

Seasons- Slayer just can't do any wrong imo. Dead Skin mask ftw!
Chaos A.D.- Awesome! Have been giving it a fair whirl lately, especially Slave New World
Not sure about the Ministry one
Screaming For Vengeance!- Mega Win. Hard to say which track is my fave from this one, whole thing is great. Maybe the title track or Electric Eye
As for the Sabbath album, I'm not sure but I'm inclined to say Dehumanizer. Probably my favourite Dio album, gotta be their heaviest and also one of their most underrated imo. Favourite tracks: Computer God, Master of Insanity
Rust in Peace- Epic to say the least. Best Megadeth lineup with Friedman ripping it up (both of them on Hanger 18!! -drool). Solid album and tracks like Tornado of Souls show why Mustaine is considered to be one of the best rythm guitarists in the world. Lucretia is one of my faves from them too.
Kill 'Em All- A very close second favourite of theirs for me (Ride the Lightning first). Fast as hell, pretty much invented the thrash metal genre with this one record. Four Horseman is my favourite 'heavy' track of theirs, can't go past the groove of Jump in the Fire or the punkiness of Motorbreath.

All in all mate, agreed, essential listening there!

yea man chaos AD is unbelievable, roots and arise stunning albums by sepultura too. also Ratamahatta has to be one of my favourite tunes of theirs also. roots, inner self, beneath the remains, dead embryonic cells, refuse/resist, slave the new world and territory are must listens
