Apparently the best Metallica album is the SF... and their second best is Master Of Puppets...
These guys are douchebags...

No Megadeth, no Emperor, no Death (Scream Bloody Gore, Human, Spiritual Healing), no Black Sabbath (Master of Reality!!!), no Bathory, no Ulver, no Dream Theater (Images and Words is a fucking masterpiece!), no Kansas (Leftoverture!!!), no Iron Maiden (Do I have to list albums? Really?), no UFO, no Primus (Sailling The Seas of Cheese, Antipop)

They included some post-rock albums like Mogwai's Young Team but they left out anything and everything by Godspeed You! Black Emperor (F♯ A♯ ∞, Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven). It doesn't make sense...

For a "rock" website, they surely don't know their rock very well...

I think you've got to judge the validity of this list in context, NME is music magazine for 13 year old indie kids so it's obviously going to lean more towards the type of music they plug every issue. All lists like this are completely subjective.

If that were the case The Beatles would definitely not be anywhere near the Top 10.
They're "too mainstream".
