Top 100 Music Albums of the 2000s by Purplepash

I missed most of this decade album wise due to busy life and limited exposure to new music, and relied on purchased CDs and radioplay singles. So this chart is a mixture of the albums I did catch on to at the time and have loved for years, and the albums that are impressing me now as I explore this missing decade in my music history, and so will be a constantly changing ongoing project.

"Life is a waterfall
We're one in the river
And one again after the fall"

My favourite go to angry album to get it out and leave me in a good mood. Both political and personal, serious and lighthearted. Aerials is fantastic closer that sums up the album.

10/10 songs: Chop Suey, Aerials, Toxicity

Nice chart. I forgot how awesome that Grinderman album was! But where's the Queens of the Stone Age? Kid A and Songs for the Deaf are easily my Top 2 of the decade.
