Sticking with the list, I guess i'd go with the Megadeth, though Extreme's album is up there in my favorite albums.

Images and Words came out in 1992, not 1990.

My bad, I thought this about 1990's albums, not the year 1990 itself.

I feel like an idiot now Ouch

I won't vote yet, because there's actually a couple albums on there I'll be listening to during my current big four thrash run (Seasons in the Abyss needs a revisit, and I've never heard Persistence of Time.) Right now  it's probably between Painkiller and Never, Neverland, with the latter probably winning, but I won't vote just yet.

Were I voting on this now I have to say that I think I'd actually go for Annihilator instead. Really addicted to that album right now.

^It was hard not to vote for some of these amazing albums, 1990 was probably one of the best years for metal.

Another vote for Megadeth but also excellent albums from Queensrhyche, Judas Priest, Extreme, Kings X and Slayer.

Not on the list...

Pantera - Cowboys From Hell
Forbidden - Twisted into Form
Obituary - Cause of Death
Vicious Rumors - Vicious Rumors

Has to be Rust in Peace. But there are so many classics on that list. Painkiller, never, Neverland, The American Way, Seasons in the Abyss, The Eye, Twisted into Form, Tales from the Twilight World, A Social Grace, Lights...Camera...Revolution, Coma of Souls, Persistence of Time, played to death the lot of them.

Fantastic albums not mentioned and further proof that we are still during metal's peak years. Making a top 20 of any of these years would be a REAL bitch. 

Gamma Ray's debut is a fantastic record, a great shame that it gets overlooked so much.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyyvsMC7vXc

Artillery - By Inheritance (one of the best metal albums ever recorded. Yes. That good)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5nl4P4CUkI

Lethal - Programmed (if you like Queensryche this is a must. Incredible vocals)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndifLvsHdYc

Bathory - Hammerheart. Really, really special stuff here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEuezn8lXqA

Vicious Rumors - Vicious Rumors
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGbk1qj9EI4

Riot - Privilege of Power (GODLY)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGwZ-bKT3YI

Realm - Suiciety
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4zo0ZVftBw

Sanctuary - Into the Mirror Black
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9fSLtNzRwQ

Atrophy - Violent by Nature (I prefer their debut but there are some amazing moments here, like the following song)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAa6fSQ0ITo

Exhorder's classic: Slaughter in the Vatican
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgLoFEU5mI8

Mekong Delta - Dances of Death (favorite MD album along with Music of Erich Zann)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O24PIlnfXvU

Ah, yes, tech-thrash was doing very well in 1990...
Obliveon - From this Day Forward
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM4YYKVQUt0

Anacrusis - Reason (not their best but still great tech thrash, shame about the production, I urge everyone to look into Hindsight, the re-recordings of their first two albums)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShCOCFxPDO0

Secrecy - Art in Motion
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6rq8-7vNTI

Demolition Hammer - Tortured Existence (thrash classic, aka as deathrash by some)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dqN9O2uSTs

Speaking of deathrash:
Sadus - Swallowed in Black
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTTAkxnFDwQ

Aggressor - Neverending Destiny (GREAT deathrash)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH7N4xkPqiA

Master - Master
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJsT5XN82KU

Merciless - The Awakening 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSopXxLi-Hk

tech-deathrash? Hellwitch!
Hellwitch - Syzygial Miscreancy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwO7K9Rk2gA

But of course 1990 was a great year for old school death metal (aka, the best death metal there is). Deicide and Death have been mentioned but this monumental piece has not:
Entombed - Left Hand Path
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6exw6xT0oo


Then a couple of oddities that deserve a mention:

Warrior Soul - Last Decade Dead Century (since bands like FNM and King's X have been mentioned, I take the liberty to include this fantastic and extremely underrated band that never quite fit in any box: hard rock, punk, metal, alternative, all of the above)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaDsh0IZ020

Similarly, Primus - Frizzle Fry
Mr Les Claypool. I love him and want to bear his children.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU0WbFBMwzs

Alice in Chains - Facelift (GREAT album)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Opzq-hxYgfE

Grunge, schmunge though, I have to close with pure heavy metal to make a statement! :P 
Leather Leone is a goddess. Chastain!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Py030IPP06A

What a year...

Hard not to vote Rust in Peace.   Runners-up Painkiller and Seasons in the Abyss.
