Top 40 Greatest Music Albums by 
tangerinu 
To make up for the lack of space, I have limited myself to one album per artist. This way I have managed to assemble a more diverse list. I picked my favourite album by each of my favourite artists and ranked them.
I muchly appreciate feedback and am more than happy to talk about any of these artists - I also really look forward to recommendations!

Maybe this is a little high on the list, but Corin Tucker's pre- Sleater-Kinney album contains one of my favourite songs of all time, Complicated. For a riot grrrl album, it's the best, and several of the songs helped me when I felt bad. Its chords are well-chosen.

Nothing compares to the feeling of being in freefall as Jeff's voice reaches unimaginably powerful high notes and the straightforward, expertly written guitar slashes at your heart in Grace. If you haven't listened to this, you really are missing out.
