I've now completed the first 100 metal releases from Century Media Records. I believe this to be the only list of its kind, and I had to spend days tracking down releases to fill in missing label code gaps.

For anyone wondering, Century Media used two different coding systems for European (77xxx) and US releases (7xxx), but they clearly attempted not to double up on numbers. So in the image below, you can see that Morgoth's Feel Sorry for the Fanatic was released as 77119 in EU and 7819 in the US, so I've given it the joint code of 819 in my list. Power of Expression's X-Territorial was only released in EU on 77120, but they purposely didn't use the number 7820 on a US release. They applied this system to around 95% of releases, with only the occasional number being duplicated (example: 77150 is Gurd's D-Fect album in EU, whereas 7850 is The Spudmonsters' Moment of Truth in the US).

Anyway, I enjoyed making it, cause I'm a metal nerd.
