    Aaahhh so hard! Especially cause I define 'Favorite Album' so strictly, ok here's a go NO ORDER, that'd make it harder.

    -Purple Rain, Prince
    -Initium, Samhain
    -Great Love Sound, Raveonettes
    -Raw Power, Iggy & the Stooges
    -Rocket to Russia, The Ramones
    -I Get Wet, Andrew W.K. [so what!?!]
    -Highway to Hell, AC/DC
    -LAMF, Johnny Thunders
    -Melissa, Mercyful Fate
    -Walk Among Us, Misfits

    Problem is, is some of my favorite artists don't make this because it's best 'Albums' and a lot of them had only singles to be later compiled into Best Ofs, which I don't count as albums. So here's some bests that just didn't get on the list due to that: Little Richard, Roy Orbison and Buddy Holly also the Ronettes.

    AC/DC - Back in Black

    Whiskey & Co - Night Life
    Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks
    Those Unknown - s/t

    oh god.... this is going to change in about 5 minutes...

    This is a horrible mean evil thread!!! :evil:


    edit: Paul's Boutique is a good one!!!
    I'm never gonna stop...

    Awesome! I've had a really hard time turning people on to that album for some reason. My favorite underground hip hop album of the past few years.

    both great albums but Dixie is non-stop the whole way. Avail shows in mid-90s was like attending church in virginia. I'm sure that if Tim Barry run for Mayor here he would win.

    AWK is a guily pleasure and put on a great live show. merch dude was a touring member of death and had the tardy brothers(obituary) in the band. wow.

    the trouble is band that I unfortuntely never got to see. Love that album.

    Your 10 favorite albums of all time.
    Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures
    New Order -Substance 87
    The Wedding Present - Seamonsters
    My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
    Bennie K - japanarhythm
    Velvet Underground - THE BEST OF THE VELVET UNDERGROUND (Words And Music Of Lou Reed)
    Jesus and Mary Chain - Darklands
    The Pixies - Trompe le Monde
    Dead Can Dance - Dead Can Dance

    This was not easy. After Bennie K, I decided to list albums to make the group of ten a little more well rounded. They are all still favorites but from Bennie K down, I could have put in other bands like Sonic Youth, The Ramones, The Clash, Echo and the Bunnymen, Liz Phair, Sowelu, move,...blah, blah, blah.....the list goes on and on and on...

    Funny enough, I saw Avail IN a church in like 94 or 95...

    Ugh! tell me about it!
    I turned down the chance to go to a gig in Boston they were playing, and the club they were meant to play another time closed down just before.
    I guess somethings are better imagined... (at least that's what I tell myself).
    I think that they were one of the most under-appreciated bands of the time.
