Serious to the groupies, at least.

That said, and back to topic, I would possibly would have voted for Back in Black. It's everything that a lot of other albums tried to be. Still, it would have won if it were not for the existence of Motorhead's Ace of Spades.

Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet

Aside from the obvious "Livin' On A Prayer" and "You Give Love A Bad Name," this album has hidden gems abound, such as one of the band's only experimental, synthy tracks, "Let It Rock." My mother and I also always loved the raw rock of "Wild In The Streets"

This was one of the very first metal albums I ever bought, got it when it came out and I bought it on the strength of its cover. Still a fantastic album today.

Dude, their first album was released in '76. Shouldn't that make them count as a seventies band?
