Voivod (Nothingface and Dimension Hatross)
Mercyful Fate (Don't Break The Oath)

Some big ass flame throwing guitar stuff:

Alcatrazz (Two w/ Ywngwie and one w/ Steve Vai)
1st Greg Howe and 1st Howe II
Tony Macalpine (Edge of Insanity and Maximum Security)
1st two instrumental David Chastain records
Marty Friedman (Dragon's Kiss and both Cacophony records)
Racer X (2nd Heat)
Leaving a lot out, but there was quite a bit of evil brain slice riffage from the above records. The Scorpions were stll okay through most of the 80's, But i dug em' a lot more in the 70's when they had Ulrich Roth.
