Top 100 Music Albums of the 1980s by adbrack1988

The 80s are by far my least favorite decade. Most of my favorite 70s artists fizzed out by this time and I can't get into anything with that infamous 80s production. Tom Waits, early metal and some spillovers from 70s bands are about all I've gotten into, so please help me out if you have any recommendations.
