Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast
Metallica - Master of Puppets

Withholding my last nom for now because I gotta think about this one. We basically have four(ish, could argue five) eras to metal, and right now these noms cover two and a half. Early heavy metal/protometal, New Wave of British Heavy Metal, and the 'radicalization of metal' era that kickstarted with Thrash. This leaves the metal renaissance (kickstarted not by nu metal but by Panthera's Cowboys From Hell, commercially -- metal was completely alive and well as a scene but it had fallen off the map commercially for a while if we don't take glam metal as a real part of the scene), and current-millennium metal. I'm not sure what a good representative for the latter would be, but kinda lean towards it. It has to be something from the point where metal genres started intermingling, I think. Any ideas?
