Top 100 Greatest Music Albums

This chart is very personal. I do not fancy gathering some most influential or most important or whichever items to the list.
There is no "one album for artist" rule, because I really like those placed into my chart. Maybe later it will expand, so I have some place to put the new interesting things. Sorry for now.

Placebo is the big and heavy love of my youth. I knew by heart many songs from first four albums. I've been at their show in Moscow in 2004 - 11 years passed away, wow... Stopped listening to their music after Meds - I also don't like what they are doing now.
Must-hear songs:
- 3. This Picture
- 5. The Bitter End
- 8. Special Needs
- 10. Second Sight
These songs are cool, too:
- every other song on this album, except Something Rotten (it really is) [First added to this chart: 02/22/2013]

Very cool list! We have a fair number in common, and others you include would be in my top 500. There are a couple I don't like, but everyone's tastes are different, and it's always interesting. I enjoy your commentaries as well!
