Top 40 Greatest Music Albums by Matteo92
This is actually just a part of the chart that I am aiming to build. Since I think that every single genre and every single decade deserves to be included in a chart, I tried to include at least 1 album representing it (to the extent possible within the limits of my musical knowledge). Enjoy!

great list, would be great to see it expanded to 100!
No full rating until you have the 100 albums. And you really have some great taste in music, I'm surprised to see The Glow Pt.2 and Suicide on here.
Basically what Hazey said. This reminds me of my chart about a year ago, I'm sure that was my exact top 40 just reordered xD
your little top 80 extension (that I didn't see at first) is actually really good too. Yeah, we have a lot of common. Would be nice if I could find some recs from this, and I've added it to my favourites as I'm eager to see how this progresses! Keep doing what you're doing, because you're doing great :)
I've also heard and enjoy everything that's here, quite a bit, you have a very nice taste :D
I like your chart a lot: it's a mix of albums I really like and ones I need to check out soon. Nice work.
Whilst there isn't anything entirely original about this chart, I can assure you that you'll fit right in with BEA forum regulars with your taste. Plus, there's not a single album that I dislike and has also made my chart in one way or another. I would like to see this expand because I know you're eager to make a name for yourself here. ;)
Thank you, I hope I will be able to keep up until 100 when I'll eventually reach the 4th level :D
Keep going! Not rating until expand at least to 40, but until now, it is really nice!

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
