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.

Berlin School
"My extensive studies have taken me into the greatest frontier of all time. In our industrial years where aliens were first being theorized, we considered that the greatest frontier was the farthest reaches of outer space. Ladies and gentlemen, I have discovered that the greatest frontier is not out there in space, but deep inside your own minds. We use 10% of our capabilities, but imagine what the other 90% is doing, and what we can achieve by exploring it." [First added to this chart: 11/10/2020]

Power Metal
"We wave our torn flags with six-chorded metal rods. We summon eagles onto out arms with our battle cries, and launch forward into battle with the lightning of the gods as out weapon of choice. The blood of our enemies need not stain the ground, for the storm will cauterize them from the inside." [First added to this chart: 04/10/2020]
