2) Anthrax - I Am The Law
3) Anthrax - Indians
....
Balls to it: top ALBUMS of '87 (to avoid the top 10 being the track list to Among the Living)
1) Anthrax - Amongst the Living (contender for favourite album of all time)
2) DRI - Crossover (the album that named a genre)
3) Suicidal Tendencies - Join the Army
4) Death Angel - The Ultra-Violence (saw them play the album in its entirety for 25th anniversary)
5) Napalm Death - Scum (the album that INVENTED a genre)
Oh, and because I can: UK Number 1 on the day I was born:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
