Just a personal, list of my favorites (there's more, just gotta get those points am I right?). Also, pretty sure I mention the Arctic Monkeys like once. Would love recommendations.

You can never convince me that there should be FOUR Beatles albums, a Nirvana album, and an Arcade Fire album above this one.

Although it's significantly less likely that you could convince me that RATM ever released an album better than this one.

Can't go wrong with the Velvet Underground. Great chart even if I think that your criticism for the Arctic Monkeys is a bit unfair.......

Thanks man, I try to keep it that way, when I don't rant about the perceived injustice in the rankings of my favorites, I should probably add something about how it's sad how ignored the Blues is.
