    Blizzard of Ozz is a great album, but it isn't in my top ten. Black Sabbath is for sure! Rainbow - Long live rock 'n roll is a superb album as well.

    Ten of my favourite albums I consider heavy rock:

    - 500 ft. of Pipe - 2001 - Dope deal (check out their cover of Donovans Sunshine superman!)
    - The Atomic Bitchwax - 1999 - The atomic bitchwax
    - Black Sabbath - 1971 - Masters of reality (but the first two as well :) )
    - Blue Cheer - 1968 - Vincebus eruptum
    - Halfway to Gone - 2002 - Second season
    - Greenleaf - 2001 - Revolution rock
    - Lowrider - 2000 - Ode to Io
    - Nebula - 1998 - Let it burn EP
    - Orange Goblin - 1999 - Time travellin' blues
    - Sonic Flower - 2003 - Sonic flower (check these Japanese guys out!)

    I still like it too. But they're not really my absolute favs.

    Of Orange Goblin I would pick The big black now for example. And Halfway to gone wouldn't be in the top 10 at all :p

    I am confused. I am sure you have some rules in your head that you didn't put down but there are more heavy metal bands from the USA than British. Or was that not nu metal not thrash not industrial ect ect ect.
    Kiss and van Halen are just as heavy as a few you mentioned.
    As for my list just because something is original dosnt mean it's better and secondly many on your list I would never consider hard rock so some i like I may not think are hard enough but maybe you would.

    Refused- the shape of punk to come
    Metallica- master of puppets
    Static x- Wisconsin death trip
    Led zeppelin- iv
    Flyleaf- self titled
    Korn- life is peachy
    Nirvana- incesticide
    MOD- USA for MOD
    Godsmack- self titled
    Tool- undertow

    This is all just off the top of my head. If I was home and could look through my CDs it would likely be very different.
    Edit: I refuse to number them they are all equally as good if I am in the mood for that cd.
