I thought I'd make a new musically based thread, seen as there arent really any active currently, and without music, there would be no Boss.

My Top 10 is:

1. My Bloody Valentine - Loveless/Slint - Spiderland
3. The Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
4. Explosions In The Sky - How Strange, Innocence
5. Dinosaur Jr. - You're Living All Over Me
6. Fugazi - Repeater
7. Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation
8. Archers Of Loaf - Icky Mettle
9. Slint - Tweez
10. Black Flag - The Process Of Weeding Out

\I'll post it now before I change my mind
\\Edit - too late

I know what you mean, it took me a while to put mine down and i've edited it several times. Although, it's good to get a discussion going. I might have a listen to some McLusky, some guy said to me they were 'Fugaziesque' and Fugazi are one of my favourite bands (as seen in 'The List').

Wow - a real toughy...

Like a lot of things with me (e.g. certain foods, movies, etc) I keep coming back to my favourites. I think I tend not to buy newer albums as I think they won't stand up to my favourites. Same as when I go to, e.g., an Italian restaurant I'll always order the same dish as I know I love it and am sometimes too "scared" to try something esle. That's probably a bad thing but anyway, it's just me...

So, here goes (in no particular order)...
Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds (I really LOVE this album)
Pink Floyd - DSOTM
Pink Floyd - WYWH
Pink Floyd - Animals
Led Zeppelin - III
Australian Crawl - Siroco
Greg Koch - The Grip (a newish one!!!!)
Crowded House - Crowded House
The Doors - L.A. Woman
The Doors - Morrison Hotel

This will most likely change but those Pink Floyd albums will ALWAYS be in my Top 10. David Gilmour is simply "sublime".

Hmm, maybe anything by Pink Floyd should be retired from this category. Hey, it would free up at least one more album for each of us to pick!
