Top 100 Greatest Music Albums
by Robertstorm 
I go back to this chart from time to time and I´ve realized that in order to make it helpful for anyone who wants to find an interesting album or gem it should be a "Music I am listening to now" list. Not only because we all have already heard the classics, but also because it is helpful for me, so I can find myself starting to put down some albums which I thought were amazing and know i don´t feel the same. For instance, I was starting to think Kanye West's Dark Twested Fantasy was the best Hip Hop album ever a year ago, but actually I don´t think it is like that anymore. Thus I am finding and exploring new albums, to destroy whatever prejudging thoughts I have of greatest albums ever, and put in my head a best album each week ;)
It would also be interesting whether instead of giving me a useless rating, anyone who finds this chart recommends me a new album, so I can expand my knowledge in this fantastic world. Thanks for reading and excuse my English

I like this chart a lot. It's cool cause it's less the best albums of all time and more just giving recognition to some of your favorite bands out there right now. I love it. Pretty interesting seeing Made Violent coming in 4th place. I would reccomend you Muse, Arcade Fire, and Animal Collective.
