@Josh : ah lool i see

Edit : Thanks Nik :)

:D thanks Nik! you put in a LOT of work into this and we all appreciate it so much!

brilliant job, top effort! :)

[honorable mentions - no arobtth, that is something hm!]

 

 

...

 

and thanks for the list ^ that's really helpful. ah mew, it seems like ages when you were revealing those lol good times.

  • Author

you are all welcome :)

 

i'd also like to thank all those people who submitted their lists, i know it wasn't easy compiling them, but i think it was worth ;)

 

next year - more lists - better results, i hope ;)

now ... Milan A.C :cool:

 

Byes everyone & good night Josh and Kathy :)

Good work Nik.

 

 

I think I lost all faith in coldplaying seeing Achtung Baby in 35th place. I'm going to have to start a campaign before next year's vote and prove how great an album it is.

 

 

*runs off in corner and crys while listening to One *

actually OKC was leading after the first 10 lists

 

btw the ranking was like this:

 

1. AROBTTH

2. OKC

3. Kid A

4. Parachutes

 

it changed around 40th-45th list...

 

 

 

See, THAT was the order I was expecting. Can't believe X&Y beat Kid A... well I can, but I don't have to like it. My Biggest problem is with how low Amnesiac and Agaetis Byrjun (sp?) Ended up. :thinking:

 

As for the Eraser, I have heard some Aphex Twin and Board of Canada and liked them, but they're missing something- Thom's voice. Musically I like it okay, but I really love it because it's the most beautiful I've ever heard his voice with the exception of a couple of Bends tracks. :nice: If he sounded like that at the time, he could record an entire album acapella and I would probably like it.

 

@Marek re: The Beatles. I hope one day you grow up and get a clue. In the meantime, thanks for the laugh. :lol:

 

Well, I guess we know who wins the Blur/Oasis thing on this board. Although Oasis have the distinct advantage of a clear album to start with. With Blur I didn't have a clue where to start, so I got their greatest hits instead.

 

Finally, @ Nik: Dude. :cool: Thanks so much. This was awesome.

Whot?! Why did the coldplay albums count? Its logical they ended that high, cause its on a coldplaying forum.

Anyway..Good list! :D

Yay for Me not voting for number 1 :laugh3:

 

Parachutes is a more compete album, but isn't good enough to make my top 10.

Damn. Its a shame I didnt do a list!

Thanks for doing this for us Nik.

 

Well worth it. :)

This is a glorious day! HAH! Coldplay beats Radiohead... Radiohead, IN UR FACE!

 

jeez, it's a Coldplay msgboard = the only place where a Coldplay album will ever make the top 10 :rolleyes:

 

Radiohead have pretty much PWNED this board - 4 albums in the top 7 :rolleyes:

i know i know. but it still feels good

 

now where's that pic boy? :whip:

It's a shame their isn't many "neutral" boards, with fans from all over the world with different musical tastes take part. Would give a better result IMO.

So Takk on 13 eh? oh my.. i seriously cant choose a top Sigur Ros album. its just too damn hard.. thats obviously one of the reasons i didnt do a list.

Nik thank you for doing all this! It was an interesting (although predictable) chart and I'm looking forward to the next year's one. if you need help, you prolly know how to find me. :)

Indeed, thanks dude. im definitly doing mine the next time.. would add more to thing.

pleasure ;)

 

apart from the top 7 which looks ridiculously biased and some really dreadful choices in the top 100, i think it's not a bad list at all.

 

this list is a milestone in a history of this board, because i don't think this' been done before. so yeah well done everyone who was involved :thumbsup:
