I’ll try not to be biased, and go by the world’s opinion instead of my own:
Red Hot Chili Peppers: Stadium Arcadium
The album gained the band seven Grammy Award nominations in 2007 including an award for Best Rock Album.
Black Sabbath: Paranoid
It includes the legendary singles “Iron Man” and “Paranoid” and is a defining moment in the history of heavy metal.
They defined a genre, and this album defined them.
Candlemass: Nightfall
A beautiful painting that with the the sound they were beginning to perfect.
Electric Wizard: Dopethrone
Dopethrone, along with Come My Fanatics, is often cited as Electric Wizard’s seminal release and the highpoint of their career. Reviewers have described it as “some of the absolute slowest, heaviest doom imaginable”, and have said “it may well be the finest record to emerge from the whole British stoner-rock scene”.
The best album by the Red Hot Chili Peppers is definitely Blood Sugar Sex Magik. It’s a masterpiece and a must-have. It’s my favorite album of all time, and was critically acclaimed and also a commercial success. It brought RHCP to the mainstream.
As for the person who said Stadium Arcadium….it was a good album, but I don’t think it deserved 7 nominations……BSSM or Californication did, though. I think it’s overrated.

Rammstein: Mutter
I’m gonna be a total butt and say an RHCP album too.
I like BSSM, Mother’s Milk and Californication.
For candlemass, I definetly recommend their album From the 13th Sun.
