Hahaha, the bottom 10.

Good work, interesting list. Should probably take note of what I don't have there.

TockTockTock · 07-05-2011, 08:12 PM

It's just an okay list in my opinion. Nothing too surprising.

FaSho · 07-05-2011, 08:40 PM

I think there were a few surprises. Belle & Seb in the top 20 for example. I thought I was one of few here that really liked them, and even I wouldn't put that album in my top 20.

duga · 07-05-2011, 08:49 PM

I regularly listen to 64/100 of those albums...time to get crackin on the last 36....

NSW · 07-05-2011, 08:56 PM

Awesome list...how'd you go about putting that together?

I was actually kind of surprised to see Muse in the bottom 10. I was under the impression alot of people here liked them.

Well, even to Muse fans, the Resistance was a load of crap.

Fair enough!

I think I have about only 15 albums out of 100. Probably means y'all listen to much, much better music than I do.

Necromancer · 07-05-2011, 10:37 PM

I have 25 to 30 on the list, there's a Radiohead album listed every other 5. It sounds fixed to me! I just dont see that many (5) different Radiohead albums in the top 100. But, I have to hold into consideration that this is an MB poll, so..

METALLICA_RULES · 07-06-2011, 12:58 AM

No Metallica? Damn!

Nah jks, great list. I wouldn't have Hybrid Theory and Meteora in the bottom 10 though. Those two are Linkin park's best albums.
