Let There Be Rock is the best Bon-era AC/DC album, therefore the best AC/DC album overall. I like Annihilator and all, but considering my progressive Daddening in general, I can't but vote for the more Boomer choice. Doesn't really matter which version, though I like the Australian version more (never was a fan of Problem Child even on its proper album and Crabsody is kinda endearingly weird and distasteful).
Not voting in the second pairing - I want both bands gone in about the same amount.
LedZep's IV is a cool album, but a very uneven one. Levee, Black Dog, Evermore are all great, but Stairway is overplayed, Rock 'n' Roll is way too generic, Hop and 4 Sticks even more so (almost mind-numbing in their monotony) and Going to California is very overlong. And I got kinda fed-up with their acoustic shtick after the previous album. That Blind Guardian album might not be precisely better per se, but I guess I like it more, nowadays.
As for the fourth pair, yeah, me voting for Pearl Jam. As if that would ever happen. Avantasia is a magnificent, catchy cheese, the beautiful Euro-power-metal approach that gives me pleasure anytime.
