Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by djirons 
A mix of the melancholic and the punk rush - depending on the mood. And some great 'lesser' albums that IMHO should be way higher in the overall chart.

A great barnstorming album. Best album of this millenium. Mittens, Silent Key and Getting Better are stand out tracks

Great chart, some of my favourites included and I would guess you may well have been born around the same time as me (1967) but I may be completely wrong!!
Not familiar with Frank Turner, so will checkout, as we have very similar musical tastes and a big hand to anyone who appreciates Half Man Half Biscuit!!
