More Soup can seal the deal for me with MF Doom, but as for an entire album I wouldn't have a suggestion.

This thread isn't about listing timeless albums, just ones that are timeless on a personal level.

Wow; these 4 might also be in my top 10 as well! The only thing is I may have to replace 'Discipline' with "In The Court Of The Crimson King"

The 10 albums that I listed I don't plan on forgetting them anytime soon hehe

**Janszoon** · 03-23-2009, 10:10 AM

I tried to avoid the temptation of attempting to balance my list with albums from a variety of eras and instead went with my gut on what I like the most. Also, I tried to ignore the nagging thought of focusing on influence rather than just personal preference. So here's my lopsided, totally subjective list in no particular order:

1. The Cure—Disintegration
2. Television—Marquee Moon
3. Gang of Four—Entertainment
4. Brian Wilson—Smile
5. Swans—Love of Life
6. Tom Waits—Rain Dogs
7. Bob Mould—Workbook
8. Kill Me Tomorrow—The Garbageman and the Prostitute
9. Iggy Pop—The Idiot
10. Alien Sex Fiend—Curse
