Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by chavaloricardin Unknown

Here, an attempt to make a list with my 100 favorite albums ...
I am never satisfied with this list and I have to leave many albums that I love and that stinks, so this Chart is always in constant change.

No more than 2 albums per artist

I know, this isn't the most popular or influential album, and i don't really care, so why did I choose it No. 1? simple; This is the one that has had the most impact on me. Thanks to this album I learned to play the piano, and it also influenced me to start listening to alternative / indie music and other genres, to gradually get to know other bands.

What makes Hopes and Fears special? I think it's a misunderstood album, but its melancholic sound and minimalist production give it an organic and authentic sound, each small piano arrangement gives depth to each of the songs, Tom Chaplin's voice is wonderful and everything together gives that melancholic but hopeful atmosphere at the same time, that's exactly what KEANE wanted to convey with this classic.
Sometimes the simplest things can touch our deepest feelings, and KEANE only needed a piano, drums and a sweet voice to achieve it.

As if the above were not enough, at least 5 of my favorite songs are here (Somewhere Only We Know, Everybody's changing, This Is The Last Time, She Has No Time and Bedshaped).

I could spend hours talking about this album, but for the moment I can only say "thank you KEANE".

Nota en Español:
Lo sé, este no es el álbum más popular ni el más influyente, entonces ¿por qué la elegí como número 1? simple; éste es el que más impacto ha tenido sobre mí. Gracias a este álbum fue que aprendí a tocar el piano, y además me influenció para empezar a escuchar musica alternativa/indie y demás generos, para poco a poco ir conociendo otras bandas.
¿Qué hace especial a Hopes and Fears? Me parece que es un álbum incomprendido, pero su sonido melancólico y producción minimalista le dan un sonido organico y autentico, cada pequeño arreglo de piano le da profundidad a cada una de las canciones, la voz de Tom Chaplin es maravillosa y todo en conjunto da esa atmosfera melancólica pero esperanzadora a la vez, justamente eso es lo que quiso transmitir KEANE con éste clásico.
A veces las cosas más sencillas pueden tocar nuestros sentimientos más profundos, y KEANE solo necesitó un piano, batería y una dulce voz para lograrlo.
Por si lo anterior fuera poco, almenos 5 de mis canciones favoritas están aquí (Somewhere Only We Know, Everybody's changing, This Is The Last Time, She Has No Time y Bedshaped). Podría pasar horas hablando de este álbum, pero por el momento solo me queda decir "gracias KEANE".

I'm not sure if "Kid A" is my favorite Radiohead album, but it's definitely the one that has changed my life the most...
The first time I heard this album I couldn't believe it, it was fucking crazy!!!!! Every time I listen to "Kid A" it produces so many emotions in me that it is difficult to explain, it's so dense, atmospheric and depressive that I simply love it. I never imagined music could sound this way.

It's hard for me to leave out of this chart other Radiohead albums, "In Rainbows", "The Bends" or "Amnesiac" could easily enter at my top 20.

No estoy seguro si "Kid A" es mi álbum favorito de Radiohead, pero definitivamente es el que más ha cambiado mi vida...
La primera vez que escuché este álbum no lo podía creer, fue una maldita locura!!!!! Cada vez que escucho "Kid A" me produce tantas emociones que es difícil explicar, es tan denso, atmosférico y depresivo que simplemente me encanta. Nunca imaginé que la música pudiera sonar de esta manera.

Es difícil para mí dejar fuera de este chart otros álbumes de Radiohead, "In Rainbows", "The Bends" o "Amnesiac" podrían entrar en mi top 20 fácilmente.

Un album con un estilo barroco en forma de rock orquestal. Cada arreglo instrumental está cuidadosamente puesto aquí y en conjunto con la parte lírica, la cual trata temas sobre la infancia, madurar y la muerte, hacen de este álbum un excelente debut para Arcade Fire.
Todas las canciones son increíbles pero mis favoritas son “Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)”, “wake up” y “rebellion (lies)”.

English review
An album with a baroque style in the form of orchestral rock. Each instrumental arrangement is carefully placed here and together with the lyrical part, which deals with themes of childhood, growing up and death, make this album an excellent debut for Arcade Fire.
All the songs are amazing but my favorites are “Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)”, “Wake up” and “rebellion (lies)”.

Nunca imaginé que un álbum doble me gustara tanto…

Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe in You, es un álbum tan aclamado que aparecía en todas las listas y rankings de mejores álbumes de 2022. Pero a pesar de todas las buenas críticas, y que los géneros relacionados a este álbum como el Indie-Rock / Indie Folk están entre mis favoritos, el hecho de que fuera un álbum doble, me hacía evitar escucharlo.

Y es que, generalmente este tipo de álbumes son largos y suelen tener canciones de relleno, por lo que me cuesta mucho trabajo mantener mi atención durante todo el álbum. Pero en el caso de Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe in You, está tan bien cuidado y es tan cohesivo, que escucharlo fue como si; el reloj se hubiera detenido, sin darme cuenta que el tiempo seguía pasando…

No recuerdo ninguna canción mala o que estuviera fuera de lugar, sino todo lo contrario, cada una de las canciones merece su lugar, especialmente; Time Escaping, Certainty, Little Things, No reason, The Only Place, solo por mencionar algunas, interpretadas por la íntima y delicada voz de Adrianne Lenker. Pero sin duda, el punto más alto del álbum se encuentra en Simulation Swarm. Cuando se reprodujo esa canción, me quedé congelado sin saber por qué, de repente sentimientos de nostalgia, introspección y melancolía se apoderaban totalmente de mí… Simplemente una de las mejores canciones que he escuchado en años!!!

Creo que, a partir de ahora, tendré que estar más abierto a escuchar discos de larga duración porque pueda que me encuentre maravillas como ésta.

El último álbum grabado por The Beatles aunque "Let it be" se lanzó después!!! como sea, representa la cúspide de toda la evolución musical que tuvo esta gran banda desde el inicio de su carrera, cada canción es perfecta pero "here comes the sun", "come together" y "something" siempre estarán en mi corazón. Abbey Road es por mucho mi álbum favorito de The Beatles.

English review:
The last album recorded by The Beatles although "Let it be" was released later!!! Anyway, it represents the peak of all the musical evolution that this great band had since the beginning of their career, each song is perfect but "Here comes the sun", "Come together" and "Something" will always be in my heart. Abbey Road is by far my favorite The Beatles album.

The first time I heard Joy División was in the video game "Tony Hawk's Project 8" for the PS2 and I fell in love with the song "Interzone".
So, when I heard Unknown Pleasures for the first time, I was shocked... the whole aesthetic and dark atmosphere of the album left me totally impressed.

Hip-hop is a genre that I rarely listen to, but the first time I heard this Entroducing... by Dj Shadow it blew my mind... I couldn't believe that I liked an instrumental hip-hop album so much, so that thanks to this album I started to give hip-hop a chance.

El hip-hop es un genero que escucho pocas veces, pero la primera vez que escuché este Entroducing.... de Dj Shadow me voló la cabeza... no podía creer que un álbum de hip-hop instrumental me gustara tanto, así que gracias a este álbum comencé a darle una oportunidad al hip-hop.

A more accessible album than its predecessor "Perfect From Now On". It is full of great songs like "The Plan", "Center Of The Universe" or "Else" but without a doubt the one that stole my heart was "Carry The Zero", it is easily one of my 5 favorite songs in life.

Hola, te escribo como respuesta al comentario reciente que pusiste en mi perfil en mi lista de albumes. Muchas gracias por el comentario. Además, consideraré comentar cada uno de los albumes como me recomiendas.
En cuanto a tu lista, también me ha gustado, veo que es muy variada y que te gustan los álbumes clásicos de bandas.
En relación a Keane, ese disco me marcó bastante en su momento, y todavía lo disfruto cuando lo escucho. Además veía necesario meter discos españoles ya que también han tenido gran peso en mi vida. De ninguna manera voy a dejarlos fuera por ser españoles, para mi siguen siendo de gran calidad. Como ves, yo no valoro la calidad general de un disco, sino lo que me ha hecho sentir ese disco, que es lo que realmente veo importante.
Un saludo

This is a good 50 - I know and love almost everything here. Special shout out to Keane at number 1 and also Travis.
Let me recommend 2 albums based on what you have and your comments - Neutral Milk Hotel In An Aeroplane Over The Sea - sometimes takes folk a while to really enjoy as it is kinda tortured folk; and Bon Iver - For Emma Forever Ago, lo-fi folk.
Get up to 100!
