Interference's Top 100 Albums of All Time - Sign Up And Discussion Thread

[the tourist]

I just sent my top 50.

 

[the tourist]

19 of them probably have a chance to make the top 100.

 

[cobl04]

How the fuck do I pick between these five Bowie albums?

 

[LMP]

Innnnnformant!

 

[phillyfan26]

I just tried making a top fifty, and the end of it feels ... weak. Hmmm.

 

[cobl04]

Maybe an astroturf hit will help.

 

[phillyfan26]

It's such an artificial high.

I ended up not including any Simon and Garfunkel albums on my list because I felt like I only had room for one and I couldn't decide which one I loved the most. I had the same problem with Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. I also hated having to decide between UF and War as the third U2 album to be included my the list. I finally bit the bullet and listed UF.

I don't think I included any albums from this decade on my list. I guess when you are my age, not matter how much you love Arcade Fire or the White Stripes or Muse, or even the latest albums by Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello and R.E.M., they just can't compare to stuff you have been listening to for the past 20 or 25 years.

Bookends made my top 50.

I'm pretty psyched. My list kicks ass. I have 58 Live album complilations - all by the Greatful Dead - and it's just them covering the soundtrack to "Singles". I am totally gonna win this bitch.

What's the prize anyway?

 

[redhotswami]

um I was kidding, dude! Did you honestly think I was gonna put fucking Snow in my Top 50 albums of all-time? I don't know whether to or

i thought you were serious too. which en vogue album made it to your top 10?

If you managed to include this, you win at life:

LemonMelon, I see that you have one of my top albums as your avatar...

 

[UberBeaver]

If upon my death I am handed that album, I will weep for my wasted life and beg God for forgiveness, knowing that it is too late. Dylan and The Dead is not an album of purgatory, but of Hell.

 

[LMP]

Bookends made my top 50.

Same same.

 

[AtomicBono]

. I haven't heard them myself, but if either of them is better than their third album, I don't know how it's possible not to like them

they're not, imo. the third album is my favourite. Velvet Underground & Nico comes close though, forget all the haters up in here

I decided to only have one album per artist...maybe. The only problem with that is I have trouble really getting to 50. I get to 40-something and it feels weak after that.

I went with two per artist.

Uh, no live albums allowed.

 

[corianderstem]

You thought he was serious, huh?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

how do you know he isn't being serious?

how do you know I'm not being serious?


I know, I just blew your mind...

 

[UberBeaver]

Uh, no live albums allowed.

But they're by The Dead. They're not just "Live" albums.


Cori - I am ALWAYS serious. ALWAYS.

 

[U2isthebest]

I have my first 25 done.

 

[AtomicBono]

That sounds good. That'll make my list stronger I think.

Evil Empire. Completely solid throughout, though it doesn't have the big hits (except Bulls On Parade). It's the band at their tightest.

 

[corianderstem]

Cori - I am ALWAYS serious. ALWAYS.

Today is opposite day, and "always" means "never."

 

[the tourist]

Only one more week, eh?

 

[joyfulgirl]

My ADHD has not allowed me to get past 20.

 

[UberBeaver]

Today is opposite day, and "always" means "never."

So by your rationale my original statement would read:

cori, I am NEVER JOKING, NEVER!

See? I am always serious.

I think I might just lash out on a best of... but having said that they don't have a huge discography.

I used Killing in the Name and Bulls on Parade to pump me up for my Italian exam

 

[LemonMelon]

Yep, and I only have about 14 lists.
