So I like the idea, and I'm not trying to be a dick, but why RYM's top 1000? Seems to me that that will just generate in-depth discussion on already canonized albums that don't really need it and won't really lead to many interesting discoveries. It seems an awful lot like devoting an entirely new project to doing what the Album of the Day system already does.

Just my two cents, anyhow. Good luck with however you end up going about it, should be an interesting project any way you slice it.


We've actually got it sorted out so that we do more obscure albums as well as your typical classics.

Cool, I'm interested to see how it plays out. Maybe you could announce which album you're listening to and then let other users join you in listening/commenting, if they like.


I'd definitely join in and throw around a few thoughts!

Have you started this yet? If not, when do those you involved in this plan to start? And will you only go through albums you haven't listened to yet?

I'll go ahead and ask them in the group and get back to you if they don't soon.

I'll try and do some of this. Just one thing, though: there has to a small amount of albums set aside per day, maybe around three, so people can still listen to other albums when they want and also so people can catch up if they're too busy.

We're aiming to do one a day but no more than 3.

Yeah, that seems alright. I'm just wary that if people are only doing one a day then it'll take over two and a half years to finish...

Well to get some discussion going. Aren't the textures on OK Computer so unearthly at times? I mean yeah, they get a bit heavy handed at points but the opening to Subterranean Homesick Alien are just stunning.
