Really unique and personal chart. Love how your top 2 are pretty much counter opposites

I see you listen to Sonic Youth a lot. Plus you have 'The Queen Is Dead' in your top 3! So you enjoy wonderfully crafted catchy songs as well as the loud guitars and distortion of Sonic Youth. In this case, I have the perfect album for you! One which combines the strengths of the two! It's called 'In The Belly Of The Brazen Bull' by The Cribs.

60/100 would be a good chart. At 55 there are still many merits present. The Queen Is Dead, The Wall, Ramones, The Modern Lovers and Pink Flag are all great albums

This list and I agree, everything I haven't listened to on this list I shall. Although I must say it does amaze me how many people with good taste don't have Who albums on their lists.
