Yeah, if you hate music, I suppose it's better. |

Kraftwerk also owes Bambaataa millions, because who knew that anyone could actually make their stuff sound interesting? Call me a boring white person if you have to, but I actually like Kraftwerk. Bambaataa really is an unsung hero, though.

These aren't really in any particular order, cuz it changes with my moods. I just numbered them to figure out when I reached a total of 10. 1.)The Rolling Stones - Exile On Main Street 2.)The Black Crowes - The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion 3.)Tool - Lateralus 4.)Tool -AEnima 5.)Alice in Chains - Unplugged 6.)Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin II 7.)Soundgarden - Superunknown 8.)Neil Young - Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere 9.)Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young - Deja Vu 10.)Pearl Jam - Vs. I guess that's my list. A Perfect Circle's Mer De Noms, TBC's Amorica, and Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs and Englishmen should probably be in there somewhere too. And while #6 is my favorite Zeppelin album, in reality my favorite Zeppelin CD is Disc 3 of the 4 CD Box Set that came out back in 1990. Here is why: "Kashmir" "Trampled Under Foot" "For Your Life" "No Quarter" "Dancing Days" "When the Levee Breaks" "Achilles Last Stand" "The Song Remains the Same" "Ten Years Gone" "In My Time of Dying" I think that's pretty self-explanatory. The final track alone is worth the price of admission. |

4 Weird Al albums? One album by him on your top ten is far too many. Three of the four albums you listed by him I think are some of his worst, anyway (Poodle Hat, Running with Scissors, Bad Hair Day). He's funny but I get bored of it after several listens. |

I'm most outrageously disappointed by the fact that you have Nickelback, Dragonforce, and four friggin Weird Al albums on your so-called "Top Ten" list. |

Never listened to an album all the way through? Good God. Anyways, I'm having trouble with this one. Out of all the albums I've listened to, I'd have to say... (assuming this includes anthologies and collections) 10. The Sickness - Disturbed 9. Ten Thousand Fists - Disturbed 8. Phobia - Breaking Benjamin 6. Hey! Ho! Anthology - The Ramones 5. The Hits - Garth Brooks 4. 1 - The Beatles 3. Back In Black - AC/DC 2. Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols! - The Sex Pistols 1. Mmhmm - Relient K Relient K always makes me happy. No matter how I'm feeling, I just listen to some Relient K and I feel better. |

Disturbed is OK. Kinda too nu-metal for my taste though. Also, I'd like to add some to mine. The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Electric Ladyland Dinosaur Jr. - Bug Mudhoney - Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge Nirvana - Bleach |

I prefer metalcore over nu-metal myself, but I don't really have a lot of metalcore albums to choose from. Come to think of it, I should have put Scream Aim Fire by Bullet for My Valentine up there. |

I usually hate metalcore but I like nu-metal if it's good (i.e. Helmet). |

Meantime. Definitely Meantime. EDIT: Actually, it kinda depends. Are there any songs in particular that you really like by them? |

| Post subject: | Re: Top 10 Favorite Albums Ever |
Nope. I got several albums off of these lists recently. Now to comment on other people's lists: What is so great about In the Aeroplane Over the Sea? I listened to it, and I liked it, but it does have its flaws. Some of the shorter tracks are completely useless and go by faster than I can realize they're on (Fool, Communist Daughter, Untitled). Oh Comely is over eight minutes and has no variation whatsoever in the music, and by the end of the track I've gotten bored. Diary from Sunny Day Real Estate is a good album. I haven't listened to it enough times to really get into it, however. Pearl Jam doesn't do anything for me. They're good but I can't listen to Ten all the way through because I end up saying, "I have much better than music that I could be listening to." And then there are my honorable mentions to my list, number's 10 through 20 (in no specific order, but definitely below the first nine): 1983: Violent Femmes 1985: Psychocandy by The Jesus and Mary Chain 1989: Energy by Operation Ivy 1991: Slanted & Enchanted by Pavement 1996: Odelay by Beck and Sublime by Sublime 1998: Keasbey Nights by Catch 22 - The original will always be better. 2001: Veni Vidi Vicious by The Hives 2003: Funeral by The Arcade Fire 2004: The Slow Wonder by A.C. Newman 2006: Costello Music by The Fratellis - Yeah, it's just a fun album and it always makes me smile. |

Oh, Comely is supposed to but Mangum's voice as the centerpiece, as he sings himself hoarse with passion, it's not supposed to be beautiful musically, but in a more subtle disquieting way. It wouldn't feel right without The Fool and Communist Daughter. I didn't like Untitled so much though. Anyway. 10. Odyssey and Oracle - The Zombies 9. Pablo Honey - Radiohead 8. Planet of Ice - Minus the Bear 7. Pisces Iscariot - The Smashing Pumpkins 6. Push Barman to Open Old Wounds - Belle & Sebastian 5. OK Computer - Radiohead 4. Satanic Panic in the Attic - of Montreal 3. The Crane Wife - The Decemberists 2. Music has the Right to Children - Boards of Canada 1. In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel |
