Best albums of all time

theres so many great records out there still to explore, but everyone has their favourites albums of time stuck in their mind.

my top 50 list.

1. joy division - closer - masterpiece dark dark and dark tragicilly ian curtis died after suicide just before his was going to an big us tour.
"love will tear us apart" is one of the best songs ever made and is truly all about the unique voice and style joy division and ian curtis was all about.

2. david bowie - ziggy stardust and the spiders from mars - the chamelon was the most entertaining and biggest rock star of the 70s and 80s.
helped his good old mates lou reed and iggy pop to break trough with their master pieces "transformer" and "the idiot" david bowie will never end up like paul mc cartney as a old boring dude how sell records and getting attention becouse of his famous past. david bowie is the man he will never be boring he always deliver the good stuff.

3. nirvana - un utero - the album was named " i hate my self and i want to die " how positive? well the record label didnt think so and nirvana must change the cover name and then in utero it is. a lot of people waited a nevermind 2, and it never came. and thats just the beaty how often has that happen rock bands with big sucsess trying to copy their style and then it goes wrong really wrong. what did nirvana do? they called up with legendary steve albini and made in utero a ****ing monster of a record a masterpiece.
nevermind sound kinda poppy now more thant 10 years ago, you listen to in utero and it still sounds like a monster. this was the sound nirvana were looking for. but the sales of this record was not as high as nevermind no surprise the radio chanels was thinking that the songs on in utero were to violent and noisy they instead played peal jam becouse back then pearl jam sounded a lot more softier than nirvana and they also sold more records.
but anyway this record is the best album of the 90s its representing evrything nirvana stands for the brutal drummings from dave christ exellent simple but fast and raw bass lines and at last kurts demon kinda voice put it all togheter.

4. - pink floyd - dark side of the moon pointed out as the best record of all time a couple of years ago.

5. - tool - ænima - the only band today that you can the pink floyd of today.
maynards genius lyrics and beautiful voice makes this album a classic.

6. - radiohead ok computer - the last good album of the 90s

7. - nine inch nails - the downward spiral - with the violent sound of a man gets beaten up as an intro orginally taken from geourge lucas master piece thx 1138 from 1970 and ending in " hurt " this is truly trent reznors best album.

8. - the beatles - sgt peppers heart club band - their best and finest hour

9. - led zeppelin - volume 4 best rock band ever makes their masterpiece and with the best rock anthem ever "stairway to heaven" it cant go wrong.

10. - ac/dc - back in black and they mean it. bon scott died but ac/dc didnt and thats good back in black is just the best party record you can find it will always make you happy.

11. - the beach boys - pet sounds
12. - the rolling stones - exile on main street
13. - husker du - new day rising
14. - the sex pistols - nevermind the bollocks

Dark Tranquillity - Damage Done
Arch Enemy - Wages Of Sin
At The Gates - Slaughter Of The Soul
Cradle Of Filth - Midian
Iron Maiden - Somewhere In Time
Dimmu Borgir - Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia
Testament - First Strike Still Deadly
Slayer - Decade of Aggression: Live
Children of Bodom - Hatecrew Deathroll

No order here except the first album is #1. Personally I think it's one of the greatest, if not THE greatest, metal albums ever recorded. I guess maybe I could add more but I dont feel I need to. Most of the stuff you guys listened is so mainstream O_O I dont see how anyone could think The Black Album was the best Metallica album...but I was raised with different beliefs in the muscial sense. Being as how my Dad knew Metallica and all

There's nothing wrong with that as long as the music is good. I agree that the "Black album" is not necessarily Metallica's best work though.

Pearl Jam's "Vs." - Almost all of their albums are awesome but this is the best of the best. A perfect mix of powerful rock and moving ballads.
Alice in Chains' "Dirt" - AiC's masterpiece.
Mad Season's "Above" - It's a shame that they only had one album. Layne Staley totally proved his songwriting skills here. A very bluesy, beautiful and sad album.
Temple of the Dog - Chris Cornell's tribute to a dead friend. I actually like it better than most of his Soundgarden stuff.
Queens of the Stone Age's "Songs for the Deaf" - Best f*cking rock album of the last 10 years. Period.

Oh I know it just surprised me, Im seeing alota CDs from the 90's and such. I like a popular band or two probly myself. I just didnt expect to see a bunch of popular 90's bands on his list o_O I liked the radio in the 90's it did me justice atleast until I found stuff I liked better

yes theres alot of 90s album but i dont favoirize the music erea of the 90s.
yes nirvana, smashing pumpkins, tool , alice in chains, radiohead and sonic youth sold many records and they went mainstream becouse of the huge sales of their albums.

my favourite music erea is proboly the 70s so if theres more album from the 90s i dont mean to say that music from that time was so much better than the others.

Thriller- Michael Jackson

The Marshall Mathers LP-Eminem

The College Dropout-Kanye West

Those are the only albums i can listen full through without skipping one track.

I never really understood why Nirvana was held on such a high pedestal
