Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by chavaloricardin

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

Aquí, un intento de hacer una lista con mis 100 álbumes favoritos...
Nunca estoy conforme con esta lista y tengo que dejar muchos discos que amo fuera y eso apesta, por lo que este chart siempre está en constante cambio.

Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You

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. [First added to this chart: 12/10/2024]

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.

Jim Morrison podrá no tener la mejor técnica vocal, pero lo que transmite con su voz está fuera del otro mundo, líricamente es poesía hecha música y en la parte instrumental The Doors está a otro nivel.
"Light My Fire" y "break on through" son dos de mis canciones favoritas de toda la vida

Turn on the Bright Lights is the most emblematic album of the Post-Punk Revival and probably my favorite of the genre. The first thing I did after listening to this album was pick up my guitar and learn to play "Obstacle 1."

If you look up Indie-Folk in the dictionary, "The Glow Pt. 2" will probably appear as its definition. At times it is very calm as in "Headless Horseman", "My Roots Are Strong and Deep", "Instrumental" and "I Felt Your Shape". Sometimes it is more atmospheric; "[unlisted]", "(Something)" and "Instrumental-2", but it also becomes extremely chaotic; "Samurai Sword", "I Felt My Size", "The Glow Pt. 2", in the middle of "The Moon" and at the end of "I Want Wind to Blow".

Plus, it has one of the most iconic covers ever, with that adorable elephant lighting a bonfire in the middle of the forest, and the music on this album sounds exactly like that.

Además, tiene una de las portadas más icónicas de la historia, con ese adorable elefante encendiendo una fogata en medio del bosque, y ¿saben qué? la música de este álbum suena exactamente como eso. [First added to this chart: 09/01/2023]

Cada una de las canciones están perfectamente integradas en este álbum, que es imposible saltarse alguna, desde luego que tengo mis favoritas como "Death with Dignity", "Should Have Kknow Better", "Fourt of July", "The Only Thing" y "No Shade In The Shadow Of The Cross" pero todas las canciones aquí son tan profundas, introspectivas, deprimentes pero a la vez muy tranquilas y hermosas, simplemente un álbum perfecto.

Build to Spill is one of the most representative bands of nineties Indie-Rock along with bands like Pavement and Modest Mouse, and "Perfect From Now On" is a great example of what they can offer, songs with powerful layers of guitars and a lot of creativity. The songs on this album can be a little difficult to digest, but if you give it its due time I assure you that you will not regret it.

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!
