There's nothing wrong with liking those albums, but calling them the best ever? C'mon really?
I didn't even hear those albums until I was in my late 20s, why? because I was too busy enjoying listening to music from my own generation. I didn't want my parents fucking cast offs defining what I liked. Don't just repeat what some fucking 40 or 50 something journalist says in some dinosaur rock publication, go out live it yourself.
Urgh people like that make me sick and are the reason there's so much terrible music around.

Meh. I guess I'm with you in the sense that my contenders for best album ever largely came out in my formative years, but is this really the music of
my generation? Most of the people making the music I loved so much back then were not from my generation, they're from some generation in between me and my parents. So what difference does it make for me to latch onto Robert Smith and Al Jourgensen verus Brian Wilson and John Lennon in terms of my generation? All of them are actually old enough to be my parents, technically speaking.
That said, I do get a little suspicious when people go for the easy choices though. I mean your favorite album doesn't
have to come from some Rolling Stone top ten list.
