Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by 
Spyglass 
My chart is ordered from best to worst. These albums I have chosen are albums that go above and beyond the boundaries of music, and have brilliance to share in whatever forms they take. All of the albums I've chosen are very special to me in one way or another, even if they're outside of my comfort zone, because a comfort zone doesn't matter when you're trying to comprehend all forms of music.
I've added little stories that describe my feelings when listening to each album. They're quite odd, but I love a little odd now and then.

"We all wither. There's no denying that. Try as you might with all of your studies and attempts to manipulate the universe around you. We flourish and we die. You say it's cruel pessimism. You always call reality negative." [First added to this chart: 11/10/2020]

Death Doom Metal / Gothic Metal
"Death really isn't that bad of a guy. He understands his job, and he has to watch people's lives unfold. He needs to make the decision as to whether or not people live or die. He once told me about how he often lets people live through great and terrible pains (both emotional and physical) so that the people he must kill have a chance to reflect on their decisions and make things better. And when they don't, he only feels guilty for allowing them to live. There were times when he begged to God to allow him to pass on his title to another, but then he would understand that for his prayers to be answered would mean that he would be passing this fate worse than death to another man. He told me that watching people make things right before they die was worth it." [First added to this chart: 04/03/2020]

"How's the groove treating you? Sorry about all the robots. I couldn't afford human workers. But they dance just as well, don't they?" [First added to this chart: 06/09/2020]

Americana / Country
"I can think of a hundred ways to hurt myself and make a million out of it. You just write country songs. Some people call it sadism. I call it a series of cruel reminders, nothing more." [First added to this chart: 06/08/2020]
