Kreator without a shadow of a doubt.

I have been on quite a Rage kick lately though.

I voted Warlock, their albums "Triumph and Agony" and "True as steel" are great!
Wouldn´t Scorpions be considered more Hard Rock than metal?

Scorpions are definitely a metal band ... although they started out as a rock band in the early 70s.

Do you know In Trance? It was published in the early 1970s (1972, I think) and isn't metal at all. And what do you mean by "afterwards"? If you mean 1990s, then I would somewhat agree.Wink

  1972 is the year of Scorpions first album (brilliant album BTW - IMHO). If I remember right, In Trance was released in 1975. Great album too.

I would have voted for Scorpions if they were on the list.
Their latest album, "Unbreakable" is really excellent and a strong return to form.

  I did not list Scorpions because, subjectively, I don't consider them as "metal". It's just hard-rock IMO.
 
  Unbreakable is great indeed. Probably their heaviest album.Clap

  Yes, of course.Big smile I was a fan of them as a teenager. I got most of their albums. I still enjoy them a lot, although I don't listen to them that often these days.

It's strange ... some people consider Deep Purple to be metal (I don't), some consider Scorpions to be rock (I don't).LOL Apparently both are both!

Blind Guardian...

I can't say, if I like Gamma Ray more than Grave Digger or Grave Digger more than Gamma Ray... And I like also Accept and Kreator... I can't vote...
