jaybrant Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I'm assuming all genres of music are included in this correct? Illmatic is easily my fav album and I personally think it's the GOAT. I was actually thinking of going with Illmatic but I'm going with... 22. Sublime - Sublime Some could argue 40 oz was better but personally self titled has my heart for many different reasons. haha Stillmatic is up there for me as well.. I remember thinking "wow.. Jay just killed Nas no way is he gonna be able to top that" Then I heard Ether and I kinda changed my mind. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.A.C.O.L.B. Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 threads like this are great to weed out those who bother to read the OP, and those that don't. I say we ignore those who don't follow the rules. Start giving people passes and all hell is going to break loose. Sitckboi's got the proper list. ---------- Post added February-16th-2012 at 02:22 PM ---------- How do "Greatest Hits..." albums fit in? I got the band/group I want to go with on my next entry, but I'm struggling on which one of their albums to go with. Their Greatest Hits compilation covers all my favs. Is that a no go?

Thanks to Stickboi for keeping a list. I'm down with greatest hits albums. They are a good way to get introduced to a band you might not be terribly familiar with.

Forehead Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 How do "Greatest Hits..." albums fit in? I got the band/group I want to go with on my next entry, but I'm struggling on which one of their albums to go with. Their Greatest Hits compilation covers all my favs. Is that a no go? I'm on board with ignoring people who don't follow the rules. As for the Greatest Hits album, I'd pass on those, or I would have done "One" by the Beatles. I picked what was in my opinion their best album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtdrums Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 May I make one suggested addition to the rules? Only one album per band/artist. I think bands that create or change genres should certainly be heard to totally round out one's experience. This band has changed heavy music forever, and inspired the invention of a complete subgenre of metal (djent). While I realize that I am in an extreme minority in actually enjoying this band, they are one of the most influential and creative heavy acts in the history of music. 16.

Actually, yes, I do enjoy being ignored :yes:... Anyway, I saw posts like this: 1. Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland (1968)2. Talking Heads- Remain in Light (1980) 3. Oceansize - Effloresce (2003) 4. The Rolling Stones - Let It Bleed (1969) 5. The Beatles - Rubber Soul (1965) 6. The Clash - London Calling (1979) 7. Chicago - Chicago Transit Authority (1969) 8. Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (1965) 9. Megadeth - Rust In Peace (1990) And didn't bother seeing how many of those listed were theirs and how many belonged to others ... But fine, I shall edit my post, sir!!

Sometimes a "Best Of" album captures a musician or band far more perfectly than any single album ever could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teller Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I'd vote against the one-album-per-band amendment. $.02 And can we PLEASE put Sgt. Pepper on there? I followed the &^$%^%$# rules!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks. ---------- Post added February-16th-2012 at 02:12 PM ---------- Also, how about an accompanying discussion thread? In case there are albums we haven't heard that we have questions about or whatever. It'd probably be best not to clutter the actual list thread.

deejaydana Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Here's one from a great band (at least in my world): 21. Radiohead "Kid A" (2000) How many bands can really 'change' their sound? This one is arguably their best (and they've got some great ones). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Who- Who's Next Certain bands maybe greatest album is ok, but only a couple exceptions, I personally don't think Third Eye Blind belongs, but to each their own. If anyone seriously suggests Nickleback they should get a perma-ban IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
