Top 10 albums
 

Yes I know these threads can be boring, but I've just created the Playlist in iTunes...so I guess we'll let Commudus decide.

Automatic for the People - REM
Destroy Rock and Roll - Mylo
Doolittle - Pixies
Funeral - The Arcade Fire
Good News For People Who Love Bad News - Modest Mouse
Hot Fuss - The Killers
Silent Alarm - Bloc Party
The Colour And The Shape - Foo Fighters
Thunding, Lightning, Strike - The Go! Team

Seems to be definite bias towards recent albums and American bands - don't know why.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

yeah these are all really new...though most are pretty good, I wouldn't consider any (except automatic for the people or MAYBE funeral, but both are bit of a stretch) of these to make any definitive top 10 list.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

I still can't believe people think that the Killers are that good. They still just sound like an artificial 80's band to me.

LOL! You suck at listening to music.
arcade fire, mirah, fiery furnaces, devendra banhart, go team!, joanna newsome, streets, kanye west, interpol, franz ferdinand, iron and wine, animal collective, dfa compilation #2, modest mouse...

all those are easily twice the album hot fuss is.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

Nice list except for The Killers. I really can't express in words how much I hate them.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

I really like the colour and the shape too.

Other favorites of mine are:
Blood Brothers - Burn, Piano Island, Burn!
Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol II
Bob Dylan - some compilation with 30 songs on it
Blues Brothers - The Definitive Collection
Jimi Hendrix - Are you Experienced
Kenny Rankin - Like a Seed
Kiss - Alive!
No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom

half good, half bad. The posturing really annoys me after a while though.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

there are much better bands than the killers out there with the same kind of sound.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

i've tried and tried to listen to the blood brothers, i even saw them open up for cursive one time.

i just cant dig it for the life of me. and their stage antics drove me nuts. i thought you had to be in the rolling stones to act like mick jagger, but i guess not.

maybe its the selection of tracks i've heard...

i'll give it a go some other time only because i always hear such good things about them, but so far im not convinced.

I don't like anything they've done except for Burn, Piano Island Burn! If you heard the other CD, give B,PIB! a spin. There really are some great tracks on it.

And what were the blood brothers doing opening for cursive?! I found out about them, like a lot of other people, when they opened for AFI.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

um, this was like 2.5 years ago?

Re: Top 10 albums
 

I'm just saying the Blood Brothers seem like a wierd fit for Cursive.

Try Kanye Wests' College Dropout.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

yah it was. the other opener was eastern youth, who i thought were pretty cool considering i dont understand japanese.

but the crowd was definately an odd mix.

the weirdest line up i ever saw billed was grandaddy opening for get up kids. i always wondered if it was a misprint.

Re: Top 10 albums

Nirvana- Nevermind
Led Zepplin- IV
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Beastie Boys- License to Ill
Guns N' Roses- Appetite for Destruction

You obviously do not like rock 'n' roll music. Go away troll.

Anyone who says gross to Physical Grafitti or Wish You Were Here deserves to be banned. Commodus?

This is pretty f'n good. The Bon Jovi selection is a bit odd...if you like that sound/era - I would have gone with Def Leppard - Hysteria in that spot...but neither are probably on par with the rest of this list.

Or just tag it on the end; we're after 10 albums, not nine.

Re: Top 10 albums
 

i dont know man, most of these albums have little or no appeal to me, i guess it took me awhile to make this list, since its kind of retarded to even do this anyways, but here it goes.

freddie king-texas cannonball
pink floyd-wish you were here
led zeppelin-houses of the holy
yes-the yes album
stevie ray vaighan-texas flood
steely dan-the royal scam
steel pulse-handsworth revolution
joe satriani-surfing with the alien
jimi hendrix-are you experienced?

it seems like everyone is really into modern rock/emo/brit pop so ill add one in that vein:

boy sets fire-the day the sun went out

evan sent me a killers song last night and after a few listens ive decided im neutral to disliking it. they show flashes of talent a couple times i guess, but whats the incentive to pretending youre british?

yea i almost put moon and antartica in instead of GNFPWLBN. that blink 182 is goodish, but IMO its a few strong opening tracks and a very mediocre middle/end.

as for The Killers being album of 2004, I'd forgot that The Go! Team and Arcade Fire were from 04 as I bought them in 05, so its the 3rd best album of 04.
