Very decent chart, but can I ask you a question? If you your username is the same as a song by the Stone Roses, then why aren't the Stone Roses on your list?

fair enough mate, i understand.. i'm not really into rock as such exclusively and i know some of my choices won't sit well with a lot.. i can see you're heavily into radiohead and joy division, bands i really can't stand.. but at least you have 3 or 4 great albums up there
