w/ random cool slide guitar licks..

"Lookin on back when I was young
I tried to sing it, but my song had been sung
And now I aint got no worries
Aint got no one to call my own
I said but when I got just a little bit older
All I got had come undone
Lets go boys

Fallin apart at the seams
Ah yea...."

Excellent song! I do have a bit of a soft spot for the first two Cinderella albums.. unfortunately I have them both on vinyl and no player, might have to add them to my crimbo list :D

My choices (can only pick a definite five tho):

Black Sabbath - Spiral Architect
Steve Vai - For The Love Of God
Metallica - Ride The Lightning
Ozzy Osbourne - No More Tears
Vicious Rumors - Don't Wait For Me

I'd probably say anything from Rage Against The Machine, Battle Of Los Angeles or Evil Empire.. Just nout from Renegades (shocking album imo).
 
Really difficulty as I generally listen to albums as a whole, but these are some that came off the top of my head:

Tool - Reflection
A Perfect Circle - Orestes
The Gathering - Nighttime Birds
Atrox - Unsummoned
Pink Floyd - Us And Them
Maudlin Of The Well – Heaven and Weak
Radiohead - Let Down
Kayo Dot - The Manifold Curiosity
King Crimson - Islands
Gorguts - Sweet Silence

Gorguts album "Obscura" is definitely the most mind blowingly technical metal I've ever heard and I'd go as far as saying they're on a whole new level compared to Meshuggah, who are awesome too btw.
