We're on an important mission to secure rock's greatest albums for posterity in Norway's Global Music Vault, and we need your help.

Last week, I gave you a dozen iconic rock albums from the '70s to choose from; you can see which albums ended up with the most votes here. This week, we shift our focus to the '80s.

Take a look and choose the one album you'd protect from the apocalypse.
