Chris Cornell - Euphoria Morning
http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...rning-Fron.jpg Hella dark alt. rock with really good vocals. Also dude drifts into some bluesy tunes and some acoustic stuff as well. This is easily my favorite album of all time. :cool: Dinosaur Jr. - Where you been http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/...ecords/925.jpg Most DJ fans will rave about 'your living all over me' or maybe 'bug' (which seems to be getting more popular, could be because of the reunion tour though) but myself this one is tops in my book. I just really like the production on it. Like it is still rough indie rock, but with a little more produced sheen on it. Sort of like Nirvanas 'Nevermind' Quote:
Pixies - Doolittle http://i967.photobucket.com/albums/a...-doolittle.jpg Dude this album has so much variety! You got the proto-grunge of 'debaser' and 'gouge away' to country like 'Here comes your man' to surfer rock like 'Wave of Mutilation'. Nirvana - Nevermind http://i819.photobucket.com/albums/z...-Nevermind.jpg This is THE album that got me into Alt. Rock. Total Classic. |
doolittle is my favourite pixies album.
ive just started listening to nirvana (Extremely late i know) im on the 7th listen of nevermind and im really enjoying it. |
I really can't say what my Top 10 is, so I will just post my most "listened to" since I have been on last.fm. This by no means replicates my exact favourites, some of these I don't even rate that highly any more.

The White Album by The Beatles
A Hard Day's Night by The Beatles Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter Give It Back! by The Brian Jonestown Massacre Is This It by The Strokes Bringing It All Back Home by Bob Dylan Turn On The Bright Lights by Interpol Loaded by The Velvet Underground Strange Days by The Doors Microcastle by Deerhunter At the moment, anyway. |
halycon digest isnt far away from being up there for me but i like to give albums a few years to see how they hold up.
deerhunter, pixies, stone roses,the clash just some of the bands that nearly make my top 10. |
Here's some of my faves in no particular order and not including the Manic Street Preachers cos I would be here for the rest of the year otherwise! lol!
London Calling - The Clash Heaven Up Here - Echo & The Bunnymen The Big Roar - The Joy Formidable The Soft Bulletin - The Flaming Lips Automatic For The People - REM Icky Thump - The White Stripes Infinite Arms - Band Of Horses The Trials Of Van Occupanther - Midlake Bryter Layter - Nick Drake Zeigeist - The Levellers |
Most of Radiohead's discography, excluding 'Pablo Honey', would be on my list, especially 'OK Computer'. Also, Bowie's 'Hunky Dory' is a memorable album, together with PJ Harvey's 'White Chalk' and Tricky's 'Maxinquaye'.

:yikes: You're the first and only person I've ever seen or heard say anything positive about this disc. Every other single comment I've seen has essentially called it a steaming river of melodramatic post-grunge poo. Whatever, dig it if you like it. :beer: As for my own top 10 albums. Eric Dolphy - Last Date Clutch - Blast Tyrant Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland Boards of Canada - Geogaddi Air - Moon Safari Mogwai - The Hawk is Howling RHCP - Freaky Styley Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon Monster Magnet - Superjudge Stan Getz / Luiz Bonfa - Jazz Samba Encore! |
Share What Ya Got - Defiance, Ohio
The strongest emotional connection I've ever had with an album. 'Road Signs' is beautiful. You're Living All Over Me - Dinosaur Jr. Made even better with the 'Just Like Heaven' covered added to the end. Goddamnit - Alkaline Trio The best breakup album, this band is too often written off as pop-punk garbage. Freaky Styley - Red Hot Chili Peppers I just find myself listening to this more than BSSM lately. Really the only Chili Peppers album I've been listening to lately. 'American Ghost Dance' is my jam. Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not - Arctic Monkeys Sooo much fun to drive to, which is kinda ironic since it's the one British band on my list haha. The Lonesome Crowded West - Modest Mouse They manage to experiment while maintaining the pop hooks. 'Trailer Trash' is so perfect. Foolish - Superchunk Superchunk's best album in a catalog with a lot of consistency. The Body, The Blood, The Machine - The Thermals The ideal balance of The Thermals's early rawness and recent slickness. Weezer (Blue Album) - Weezer 'Only in Dreams' is my favorite album-ender. The Marshall Mathers LP - Eminem I'm relatively new to hip-hop so I guess this is a noobish pick, but 'Bitch Please II' is so awesome. |

Anyway, here's my 10. Rumours - Fleetwood Mac Indiscreet - Sparks Avalon - Roxy Music The Wall - Pink Floyd Crimes of Passion - Pat Benatar Can't Buy a Thrill - Steely Dan The Slider - T. Rex Crimson & Clover - Tommy James & The Shondells Voulez Vous - ABBA The Stranger - Billy Joel |
I'm actually gonna have to replace the Clash's S/T with Bad Brains' S/T for the moment, though I should just make a new 10.

Difficult task, but...
1. Alexisonfire - Old Crows / Young Cardinals 2. Alesana - The Emptiness 3. Elliott Smith - XO 4. Blackfield - Blackfield 5. Franz Ferdinand - Tonight: Franz Ferdinand 6. Iron & Wine - Our Endless Numbered Days 7. The Pineapple Thief - Someone Here Is Missing 8. Opeth - Damnation 9. Porcupine Tree - Deadwing 10. Yes - 90125 |
I always hate doing this because I feel like I'm leaving something off but i can't help but find the idea intriguing.
1.)Converge - Jane Doe 2.)Nine Inch Nails - Fragile 3.)Mr Gnome - Deliver This Creature 4.)Tool - Aenima 5.)Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness 6.)Neurosis - The Eye of Every Storm 7.)The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute 8.)Godspeed You! Black Emperor - lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to the Heavens 9.)Marilyn Manson - Mechanical Animals 10.)Bjork - Homogenic Honorable mention - Chelsea Wolfe - Apocolypsis: Probably nudges it's way into the middle somewhere but I just discovered it a couple of months ago and am not sure if it will stand the test of time. For someone who prides their self on listening to a lot of different and new music my list seems oddly dated and homogenized :( |
