That was one of the best years in music 'till now so take a look at the best of the best according to my humble opinion.
Your own opinions and comments are more than welcome so I could check if I forgot something...
July 26 UPDATE: After careful thought and listening I have replaced "Malice - License to Kill" with "Running Wild - Under Jolly Roger". I hope you agree...

There are a lot of other genres that had great releases in 1987, but I have a feeling you might agree with a few of these picks. -

Manowar - Fighting the World
This was their 5th and weakest release until 1987. A few good songs and lots of fillers.
Anthrax - Among the Living
I forgot that! It would possibly appear in the next updated edition!
Guns N Roses - Appetite for Destruction
I confess I forgot that masterpiece too..
Neurosis - Pain Of Mind
This is a 1988 release... and not one of my favs anyway. -

King Diamond - Abigail
absolutely brilliant piece of horror heavy metal! I wish I had it on vinyl, that would be so awesome. CD is too digital for a tale dated back to the 19th century.
Candlemass - Nightfall
I prefer Tales Of Creation, but Nightfall is good too
