Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by r0b07 Unknown

DISCLAIMER:

These are my favorite records. If I had to pick the "Greatest Album Of All Time" based on cultural impact, sound quality, variety, and catchiness, it would be Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon". That being said, I still prefer "The Wall", and it's not even in my personal Top 10.

Each Band/Artist gets 1 spot on this list, otherwise this would be majority Metallica, Megadeth, and Iron Maiden records, which would make for a boring list.

Speaking of which, I have a massive bias towards Heavy Metal, Hard Rock, Punk, Shoegaze, and Synthpop. I have a bias against all of the other genres of music.

I also have a massive bias towards the 1980s and 1990s (which I believe to be the peak of American and British Music Culture).

This list steers away from Live Albums and Compilations as much as possible.

Great list. Good to see lists of a heavier nature. Nice to see some L7 in there. Look forward to seeing it when expanded out to 100.
