I really like Dead Can Dance, this is one of these kinds of topics that I would have most looked forward to as I have especially been into DCD over the last few years.

I have done this chronologically and it was pretty easy because I still have so much of this quite fresh in mind.


- Dead Can Dance - "Ocean" (1984)
- Spleen and Ideal - "Advent" (1985)
- Within the Realm of a Dying Sun - "Summoning of the Muse" (1987)
- The Serpent's Egg - "The Host of Seraphim" (1988)
- Aion - "Mephisto" (1990)
- Into the Labyrinth - "The Carnival Is Over" (1993)
- Toward the Within - "I Am Stretched on Your Grave" (1994)

Here is a playlist of my choices.

EDIT: While I have avoided this, were I to rank the albums, it might be...

1. Spleen and Ideal
2. Dead Can Dance
3. Within the Realm of a Dying Sun
4. The Serpent's Egg
5. Toward the Within
6. Into the Labyrinth
7. Aion
