Forums - General - Top 5 albums

I realize this thread had been done before but it was in the wrong section and it certainly was interesting.

Pretty simple, just list your top 5 albums of all time. Mine are:

1. Pearl Jam - Vs (I like almost all PJ albums equally but this is the one I've been listening to the most lately)

2. The Beatles - Sgt Peppers Lonely Heart Club Band (Rubber Soul closely follows)

3. David Bowie - Hunky Dory (too many to choose from here bu I'll go with the one I listen to the most)

4. Pearl Jam - No Code (Stepped out from their mould, and paid for it popularity wise, but it created a fresh new direction for them)

5. John Lennon - Plastic Ono Band (often overlooked by Imagine and Double Fantasy, but it is his most engaging works imo.

It's actually quite difficult to limit it to only five as it often changes, especially #5.



Around the Network

1. Beatles - Revolver
2. Radiohead - Kid A
3. Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde
4. Nirvana - In Utero
5. Operation Ivy - Comp



No order

Madvillian(MF Doom + Madlib)-Madvillainy
Public Enemy-Apocalypse '91-The Enemy Strikes Back
AC/DC-Back in Black
The Black Keys-Rubber Factory
The Shins-Wincing the Night Away(I don't always love this album so much. I have to be in the mood for some mellowness)

An alternate for The Shins would probably by Nas-Illmatic

Considering how similar all of DF's albums are, I'm surprised only one made the cut. :P
