Number eight
My top ten hard rock/metal albums of 1987 rolls on with number eight and it is...
Celtic Frost-Into the pandemonium
A rather ambitious album for this band and a bit of a departure from their previous material. They had violins, backing female vocals blended with orchestral arrangements, a drum machine on one track and more. Yet just about all of it worked and helped show how far a metal band could branch out. A stunning album that still holds up well today.
The hint for number seven is that the band took their name from a Russ Meyer film.

Like ABIGAIL, I thought this would rate higher on your list. I was never into Celtic Frost back in the day, I only got into the band sometime in the late '90s.
I'll guess Faster Pussycat for #7.
Steve
Heavy Metal Addiction
I'm with Steve on #7.
That's a bit more than a hint. Great album though.
Rhodeislandrock-I got into Celtic Frost in 1986 and this album was a bit of a shock when it came out. Still very good though.
Bob-You already have one right as well.
anony-Yes, it may be, but there will be some more difficult hints on the way so stay tuned.
So far so good. I like the extra comments with each post. I'll have to check out some of King Diamond's solo work.
you mean your hint wasn't leading up to Vixen? haha. just kidding!
took me awhile to get into this album but it's a great one
