|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1. (=) | The Colour Of Spring | Talk Talk | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2011 ~ The best 8 track sequence for an album ever. From beginning to end, this is my favourite album to discover more with each listen. | |||||||||||||||||||||

2. (=) | Disintegration | The Cure | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2004 ~ Influential to many artists over the years but personally, an important album. This album signified the end of my teenage years and inspired me not only in my acting but in my writing. | |||||||||||||||||||||

3. (=) | In Rainbows | Radiohead | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2007 ~ 10 tracks, no filler. Unlike other Radiohead albums, each song has its place in the order and can equally be listened to outside of the strucutre. Reckoner is a highlight. | |||||||||||||||||||||

4. (=) | Ravedeath, 1972 | Tim Hecker | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2012 ~ This album is the one that got me into ambient and drone music. A soundscape that is driven by pure emotion. | |||||||||||||||||||||

5. (=) | Absolution | Muse | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2003 ~ If the world was collapsing around me, the soundtrack of the demise would be Absolution. Even though they may show strong influences from previous bands, their talent is not lost on many listeners and fans. | |||||||||||||||||||||

6. (=) | Echolalia | Something For Kate | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2001 ~ My favourite and what I believe to be the best Australian album of all time. Each song is a story and the maturity within this album from Dempsey and co. is obvious. | |||||||||||||||||||||

7. (=) | Wish You Were Here | Pink Floyd | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2007 ~ A recent rediscovery that lends itself to criticism over its length. However the five songs are crafted in such a way that the bookends of Shine On You Crazy Diamond seem to go forever and fade in eternity. | |||||||||||||||||||||

8. (=) | Teenage Snuff Film | Rowland S. Howard | |||||||||||||||||||
| Initial listen: 2011 ~ An unknown entity for the most point, Howard's first solo effort is incredible on multiple listens. Brooding, dark, painfully honest and all Rowland. | |||||||||||||||||||||

Was fortunate to live in Australia for awhile. Fell in love with the music scene immediately. Changed my entire outlook to the point I abandoned pop radio in favor of "alt rock". Been searching out great music ever since. Thanks for posting such a great chart - gonna have to check out your Aussie bands now.

Correction: it's a great list for albums of any shape or stripe, and Teenage Snuff film is an underrated classic

Lots of unknown stuff here for me to check out. I listened to Teenage Snuff Film a few weeks ago and I think it's a great album.

an_outlawHey, I was going to recommend Lifeblood many times in the past because I thought it would be a sound from the Manic Street Preachers that you would like. Then I saw it on your best of 2004 chart today :)

I owe you a debt of thanks for several albums which I saw first on your chart. Particularly Teenage Snuff Film and all those Elbow albums.
