Top 25 Greatest Music Albums by kryptos006 Unknown

Listen, I know what you all want. I have known from the beginning. You don't want me to make a list of my favourite albums; you want a list of obscure albums so that you can locate more obscure music and further deepen your claim for maximal hip-ness. This is not something for which I strive. I don't care. Music is my life-blood, not my banner of coolness. I have long since known that I was going to have to make a list like this, but have put it off because, well, I'm lazy. And I'm still lazy. This is only a top 25 because I don't have time to make a full 100 with this premise.

Alright, here is the idea. This list is made up entirely of albums that are not in the BEA Top 500, but still kick some ass. I also have taken the liberty of only including one album per artist. Some of these albums are still what you would call classics, but for some reason they are not in the top 500, so they are eligible for my list. I might eventually further restrict it to having to be without the top 1,000, but for now you will have to live with this.

I hope you all understand why this should not be the model for this site, though. This is a site that aggregates your favourite albums to make a list of the greatest albums of all time. If you have all these people competing in a big dick contest to show off to their friends, you can see how that makes the list inaccurate. But, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, I suppose. So, here you go.

"Metronomic Underground". It's true, that song is one of my top ten favourite songs of all time. (Note: So you don't think that all of my favourite songs are fairly loosely structured, this list also includes "Climbing Up The Walls" by Radiohead, "In The Backseat" by Arcade Fire, and "Happiness Is A Warm Gun" by The Beatles). Emperor Tomato Ketchup is one cool album. [First added to this chart: 01/12/2016]

Fun and refreshing. I, too, love Squeeze and the Specials. Came to realise that my chart is more generic but I just put my honest-to-God favourite albums I have enjoyed over the years. Some of my taste has been influenced by music media but most of my picks were just honest ones. Still your picks are very good. Respec'! And your comments are funny man.

The Last Will and Testament of kryptos006, the best thing to happen to BEA since circlejerking hipsters.
