From /mu/: 265 albums
 

What do you guys think of this list? I find it to be pretty dandy. I'll probably end up using word to make a checklist so that I can go through the albums I haven't heard yet (about half).

I've probably heard 40-45% here? I'm not sure I understand whether this is a meme or a site.

Uh. I use RYM for this these days, in any event.

I believe /mu/ is 4chan's music forum. I've never been on it, I found this on Reddit.

:laughing: @ Pitchfork-core

Percentage drastically decreases upon closer inspection. I've listened to 68 of these.

Listened to 87 of these.
And reading /mu/ is like pouring acid in one's eyes. Just sayin'.

I have listened to:

All of the top category, sans King Crimson.

In Pitchfork-core:

Arcade Fire - Funeral, The Antlers - Hospice, Weezer - The Blue Album, Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs, Boards of Canada - Music Has a Right to Children, Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream, White Stripes - White Blood Cell, Weezer - Pinkerton, Death From Above 1979 - I'm a Woman, You're a Machine, Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary, At the Drive-In - Relationship of Command, Cap'n Jazz - Analphabetolagy, Nirvana - Nevermind, Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works, and Converge - Jane Doe

In the classics:

Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks, Big Black - Songs About ****ing, Jimi Hendrix - Are you Experienced? and Electric Ladyland, and Black Sabbath - Paranoid

In Hipster-Hop:

A Tribe Called Quest - The Low End Theory, Wu Tanc Clan - 36 Chambers, Dr. Dre - The Chronic, Madvillain - Madvillainy

Electronic:

None :(

In Metal:

Metallica - Ride the Lightning, Megadeth - Rust in Peace, Slayer - Reign In Blood, Black Sabbath - Master of Reality, Metallica - Master of Puppets, Electric Wizard - Dopethrone, Morbid Saint - Spectrum of Death, Melvins - Houdini, Sleep - Holy Mountain , and Between the Buried and Me - Colors

I got a lot of listening to do boys.

Just looks like the same bunch of critically acclaimed bands/albums that I see everywhere else on the net.

I don't see a single surprise there.

Loveless is too goddamn popular. I love My Bloody Valentine I do, but I have an affinity for all things shoegaze, so I think that excludes me from the "I'm so cool, look what I'm listening to" crowd. *grumble grumble*

Such is the case with all of 4chan, I'm guessing
