The cover art basically tells you all you need to know. Scorpions’ Blackout is mouth open wide, glass shattering everywhere, fists permanently locked in pumping position hard-rock music. The riffs sound like they can fill every inch of a military-grade airplane hanger, and the skygazing refrain of the Eighties glam-metal staple, “No One Like You,” still inspires gleefully bad behavior no many how many times you’ve heard it pop on during an ESPN commercial break. Every metalhead needs Blackout on their shelf.
