Since a lot of people already said Lateralus, I'll be original (kinda...) and go with Cynic's Focus for the 6 star slot.

Ayreon - Into the Electric Castle would have to me my first choice. 

That said there's definitely a few that are equally deserving.

Anubis Gate - The Detached
Blind Guardian - Imaginations From the Other Side
Wuthering Heights - Far From the Madding Crowd
Epica - Design Your Universe

Oh wow that's funny, last night when I was re writing my review of The Mantle, I actually thought
"This deserves a 6 star rating"

I kid you not LOL

So there be my answer.

This should be little surprise to anyone who knows me
Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament. The real Big Four of thrash metal!



Listen to doom metal, worship Satan

Im allso one of thos that love 10.000 days, but its not up to Lateralus standards but almost. Its my second favorit Tool album for sure, and ill take it over Aenima anyday.

The sixes:

Metallica - Master of Puppets (consider this my one answer)
King Diamond - "Them"
Megadeth - Rust in Peace
Flotsam and Jetsam - Doomsday for the Deceiver (this one actually scored 6/5 in Kerrang! in 1986!)
Death - Individual Thought Patterns

...and for non-metal, Mr. Bungle - California

Que?
Back to the topic, I think a lot of Opeth's stuff definitely warrants at least a 5.5 star in some cases.

^ I don't speak latin very well either, despite that I've been learning this strange language for 3 years at school and half a year at the university Embarrassed 

But as you said  it's time to end the offtop.
I think there is no album I would rate with six stars. Maybe Led Zeppelin III and IV out of sentimental attachment, I don't know. I guess I don't have one favorite album anymore. It used to be MAYH by Opeth and Lateralus but now I can't say they're are absolutely flawless. Is it normal?Confused

^ I don't actually speak latin, so it took me a while to find out what that phrase meant. Tongue

Nonetheless, I wish I spoke latin so I could say We are derailing this thread LOL
Lost respect for these archives when I saw Creed added, among other bands. Not going to be foruming here anymore. You can keep my reviews if you want.

Quality does not always = level of popularity (except for DT because they're awesome Tongue).


has nothing to do with popularity, it has to do with sheer lack of value
 
Taste is taste my friend. The way forward is to accept that people have different tastes and that they might not be equal to yours. That�s why it�s so interesting to read both positive and negative reviews on the same album. A negative review can sometimes be very educational for a hardcore fan while the positive review sometimes bring things to light that the critic hadn�t thought of.
