does not compute

how did a good album get in your top 10???

I'm a big DD&HSW fan, seen them live several times (best live band ever possibly) have all the albums, except the new one and all of them up to the new one, and have 3 DD t-shirts. I was one of about 10 people that saw them at the opening of Virgin Cinema in 1996. Ahhh those were the days, I remember all my friends except my girlfriend going to see the final gig by the Bloody Mary's that was on the same day.

Cheers

Stuart

X-Japan - Art Of Life

Iron Maiden - Number Of The Beast

Well it had to be. Impressive list despite Sonic Youth' date=' Pavement and the Pixies.[/quote']

I wasn't too sure about the pixies, but i'm at work and done it quite fast, i mihgt change it when i get home. Pavement and sonic youth cant be moved though.

I couldn't possibly leave out any of the three radiohead albums i picked though, and i've never heard of only one album per artist. ALthough when they were doing a top 500 songs at ateaseweb.com and aked users to do a top 200 i think you were limited to 20 per artist.

Queen Adreena??! Blimey. Your list is a mix of the ridiculous and the sublime.

Well I got Taxidermy last Saturday and have barely stopped listening to it since. Then I got Drink Me (their second album) today, and it's more of the same, except with even harder riffs. And I'm seeing them in King Tuts on Friday after my last exam. Apparently Kate Jane Garside goes all over the fucking place.

I daresay it'll fall off the top ten within a few weeks though.

What else is ridiculous in that list like????

Good to see a few votes for The Velvet's 'Loaded', I think it's a brilliant record from start to finish. 'Sweet Jane', 'Rock and Roll', 'New Age' and 'Oh! Sweet Nuthin' are absolute classics! C'mon Lightbody, where's your 10? And it better contain the greatest bass guitar album ever!!!!!

"Can I have your autograph?" He said to the fat blonde actress :D
