Nothing, I was just a bit confused about your slightly odd range of genres, it seemed you liked prog and hard rock, but also nu-metal. There's nothing wrong with that, it's a matter of taste. And if you prefer "A Thousand Suns" to "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", that's up to you (and I'd probably agree with you).

TheNiceGuy

Oh ok I get you know. The list is a little eclectic but to be honest I prefer that variation to say, a list with only 10 Metal albums or 10 pop albums for example.

I see where you're coming from, and this is why I hate Rolling Stone magazine, their "Best Albums Of All Time" list seems to comprise mostly of Beatles albums and 60's pop.

TheNiceGuy

I guess most of The Beatle's albums in the top 10 deserve to be there except Rubber Soul which is a bit overrated in my eyes.

I am intrigued. How can all the Beatle's albums be classed as top 5/10 albums/ best of albums in these lists. Do you not find that they have become completely over played and that so many other bands would at least deserve one of those slots.People always seem to go for the obvious Smiths, Pixies, Beatles ensemble but I a sure if you even looked at the past few year you would find a multitude of amazing albums;

The National – High Violet
Arcade Fire – The Suburbs
Foals – Total Life Forever
Elbow – Build A Rocket Boys
Mumford and Sons- Sign no More

Or prior to this
LCD Soundsystem – Sound Of Silver
Florence & The Machine – Lungs
Damien Rice – O
Bon Iver – For Emma, Forever Ago
Amy Winehouse – Back To Black
Arctic Monkeys – Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not
Queens of the Stone Age- songs for the Deaf
Foo Fighters- In your Honor
Nirvana-Nevermind
The Smiths- The Queen is Dead
The Strokes- Is this it
kings of Leon

In No Particular Order:

"Telephone Free Landslide Victory" by Camper Van Beethoven

Necromancer

(1990) Holy Water by Bad Company, which featured Brian Howe on lead vocals.
Brian Howe was also featured on 1984s Penetrator album by Ted Nugent.

(1989) Badlands debut album which featured Ray Gillen and Eric Singer, who previously played together in Black Sabbath. This album also features guitarist Jake E. Lee (Ozzy Osbourne) and bassist Greg Chaisson.

(1984-1986)The Firm were a British rock supergroup comprising former Free and Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers, ex-Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, ex-Uriah Heep and Manfred Mann's Earth Band drummer Chris Slade and bass player Tony Franklin. Page and Rodgers originally wanted former Yes drummer Bill Bruford and fretless bassist Pino Palladino in the group however, Bruford was contracted to another label and Palladino had tour commitments with singer Paul Young.

(1987)(Contagious by Y&T is the eighth studio album by American hard rock/heavy metal band. It is the first Y&T studio album to feature a different line up since their debut album, with Jimmy DeGrasso replacing Leonard Haze on drums after he left the band in 1986. Y&T disbanded in 1991 after the release of their 9th studio album titled Ten, the same year Pearl Jam also released their debut album entitled Ten.

(1986) The Best of Nantucket is a compilation of popular songs from North Carolina music group Nantucket. It covers material from all studio albums by the band from 1978 through 1985. later album releases include, Still Live after All These Years (1995), The Unreleased D.C. Tapes (2006), and Nantucket Original Archives (2010).

This is just an example of a few albums that actually contained good hard rock, before the takeover of grunge in the early 90s. There is good rock during this period if you just look for it. Its my opinion a lot of these bands and albums are forgotten from this particular era, and often overshadowed by grunge from the 90s.
