I think this would be the list. Not positive. I really want Miles Davis - Kind of Blue in here, and a few others but I'm not sure what they would replace.

Black Sabbath- Sabbath,Bloody Sabbath-if for no other reason than A National Acrobat Blind Willie McTell-The Complete Blind Willie McTell Tyrannosaurus Rex-A Beard of Stars Neil Young-Everybody Knows This is Nowhere Dinosaur Jr.-You're Livin' All over me *I really wish this was a top 10,because there's still the Kinks,Thin Lizzy,The Stooges,and Blue Cheer *
I had a rough time not putting either of these in my list. Wavering Radiant I think is their best album - although I think almost everyone will disagree with me. I think though that it's just more solid as a whole than any other album they have released. On a side note I saw them play during their last tour before disbanding.
Lateralus used to be my #1 album. I can't put it there anymore, or even in top 5, but it pains me to not put it in the list.

I agree with you on Wavering Radiant, it doesn't have a weak track unlike their other albums. Then again there's no real stand out track for me either.

I agree with both of you that it's their best album, and there really isn't a weak track. But that alone wouldn't be enough to put it in my top 5. The main reason is that I think that Hall of the Dead and Threshold of Transformation are 2 of the greatest songs I've ever heard. And Ghost Key is up there, too. I think they just really reached the pinnacle of what they were building towards for a decade, so I almost kinda get why they decided to quit. And I got to see them on that last tour as well, their last show in Boston. It was fucking amazing.
I know that people who have been with Isis since the beginning would definitly think their high point would be Oceanic or Panopticon (which are fuckin amazing btw), but Wavering Radiant is my favorite because of the positive energy and psychedelic nature of it. Favorite album to stone to.
And to the guy who posted this:
I discovered this two weeks ago and it is really good. A true blast from the past.
