Top 27 Greatest Music Albums
by MamboCalamari Unknown

The title "Greastest Music Albums" is a little misleading, but of course I cannot change it. These are just my favorite albums of the moment, as I cannot claim to know that many albums well, but I will be using the Overall Chart to discover many new albums.

I simply cannot stop listening to this album. My love for variety, piano in rock, progressive rock elements, and emotional vocals are all perfectly reflected in this album. I love every second. The B-Side "Fury" is great if you're already a fan. [First added to this chart: 09/05/2013]

This is the most "fun" album I've ever listened too. I especially like seeing this album live. "Citizen Erased" is fantastic, and "Micro Cuts" is especially fun to sing along to. [First added to this chart: 09/25/2013]

The incredible diversity on this album is the main appeal. The Beatles were all I listened too when I was 7 years old, and I always felt a special connection with this one. [First added to this chart: 09/25/2013]

When I was first getting into music, I asked my mother what her favorite album was. It was "The Bends." (No crap, why else would I tell you that) I ended up listening to it for a month straight after she showed me it, and it's still one of my favorite. [First added to this chart: 09/25/2013]

Putting Muse over Radiohead is like putting The Monkees over The Beatles.

Good start, some really good albums there. If you are looking for more progressive type rock from the 60s/70's, have a listen to King Crimson or Yes. Or for for more modern Ive been listening to Riversides latest album Shrine Of The New Generation Slaves which is quite good.

Try some more music of the 60's and the early 70's like the velvet underground, the doors or the kinks
