These are my 2 choices as well for Maiden. As much as I love 7th son, I won't say it's flawless. And Somewhere in Time probably isn't flawless either (Deja Vu being the weakest song, but it's still decent). These 2 albums (P/S and PoM) I do feel are flawless. When I was young I wasn't a big fan of Sun and Steel, but the song has grown on me over the years. And both albums end in epic songs. What more could you ask for?

Cool concept. Now, I know you're a huge WASP fan and I'm a bit surprised you didn't include them on this list. For me The Headless Children and The Crimson Idol is an amazing sequence of releases (I'd even extend it to Still Not Black Enough and KFD. I know I'm a minority but I prefer that spree to their first three records....90's WASP is seriously underrated). I also think Sabbath doesn't have solely two back-to-back perfect albums but 5! IMO from Paranoid to Sabotage everything is top notch, but if I had to pick just two it had to be Vol 4 and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. When it comes to Paradise Lost I think there's a spree of 4 absolute masterpieces from Shades Of God to One Second. I don't care much if the latter is almost devoid of metal elements, the damned thing is beautiful to a point I believe the band's highest point was between Draconian Times and One Second. Maiden is another case of a crazy long array of flawless releases: from their debut to Seventh Son everything is amazing in my opinion (though if I had to pick two back-to-back, they would be without shadow of doubt Powerslave and Somewhere In Time). As for Judas Priest, Screaming For Vengeance and especially Defenders Of The Faith is a great pick. But the Sad Wings/ Sin After Sin/ Stained Class is ridiculously majestic (with that in mind my back-to-back pick is Sad Wings Of Destiny and Sin After Sin). Yeah, Metallica IMO is a no brainer: Ride/ Master and Justice are way ahead of anything the band has ever done before and since. Yet Justice is my favorite from the catalogue and Master my number two, so my pick is obvious.

Talking about Screaming for Vengeance/Defenders of the Faith, I personally treat them as two parts of one masterpiece. Probably due to the fact that I first listened to them day after day and due to the fact they are similar enough in style and yet slightly different, my brain treats them as two parts of one recording, starting with the more melodic Screaming and ending with more "metallic" Defenders. I even have a cassette where the A side is one album and the B side is the other, they are inseparable for me to that extent 😂
