Yo, fasho, I have to tell you straight up this is probably my favorite top100 list from this place so far. Keep it up, mang.
Edit: also, now that I know how old you are, you remind me of that little critic from Hamlet 2. |

Back to the reviews: 76.Desperate Youth, Bloodthirsty Babes-TV On The Radio There's was a time around September when TVOTR were my top artist on lastfm. They have since then moved down to #66. This album will always have a special place in my collection for being one of the first bands I got into that wasn't 'alternative'. It sounded at that time like nothing I'd ever heard before, and I loved it. I own the bands entire discography, and this is definatley the album to get. It just sounds so sensitive compared to their techno-tinged beats and whatnot on other albums(not that I don't love that as well), and it pretty much a must have for anyone who likes bands like Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and other groups in that "scene". The first of many nostalgia albums on this list, I'd like to thank that old poster with the cookie monster avvy for sending it to me last year. 75.Rage Against The Machine-Rage Against The Machine When I heard Rage got back together last year, I was pretty happy, because Bulls On Parade and Down Rodeo were such great songs, then I decided I needed to haer a few more of their songs. I think this album definatley defines the sound Rage wanted to have, but failed to emulate in further albums. When I listen to songs from Evil Empire nowadays, I just find it lacks the raw passion and emotion this album has. I'm usally notone to get into political lyrics, but De La Rocha can lay down his opinions in pretty interesting and appealing ways. I hate to call Rage a 'rap-rock' band, because I feel they're more unique then that, but it's the only way I can think of to describe the sound.The only problem I have with this album is f*cking Tom Morello. his guitar playing gets so tiresome, and almost annoying after awhile. When I listen to an album like this, I wanna hear something that sounds like a guitar, but I feel Tim Commerford makes up for it, because he's one of my favorite bassists, and this is one of the few bands where the bass in the foreground of sound. Highlights: Bombtrack, Wake Up, Township Rebellion 74.Stankonia-OutKast This is by no means one of my favorite hip-hop albums, but it's a very important part of my collection. OutKast were on of the first rap groups I got into, and this album really solidified my love of the genre, and especially my love of collabs. A must-have for every hip-hop fan. Highlights: Ms. Jackson, B.O.B., Xplosion 73.(What's The Story?)Morning Glory-Oasis We've all heard Wonderwall a million times, but if you dig into this album you can find so really impressive music that you don't excpect to come fro mthe same band. The album definatley has it's misses, but when it hits it's hits hard. The last half of the album is full of great alternative which is just what the 90's needed to spice up the mundane, daily, beratement of grunge. This album came out at the right time for it to become as popular as it did. I love this album, becuase it's something I wan't excpecting, but none the less an album that I can listen to individual songs over and over, whih is an element that was missing form most music of that time period Highlights:Cast No Shadow, She's Electric, Champagne Supernova Last edited by FaSho; 07-01-2009 at 09:50 AM. |

This is definatley the worst-planned thread on MB. I didn't even have a real list when I started this. Considering I don't post nearly as much as used to, I might as well try to make some productive posts, and get back to this. I will start from 100, and am working on the list now. Excpect good things unless procrastination and laziness gets to me yet again.
