Haha I promise I listen to more artists than just those 3, but I just love all those soo ya.

 

And, I'd just starve to death within the first week anyways, so I might as well take what I love, rather than just enjoy.

Okay, Rainplay, if you pick TKOL over Amnesiac you're not my friend anymore.

1. Rubber Soul

2. Revolver

3. Heck, I'll just take the White Album cause it's a double album and I can't choose (the whole thing could be Beatles albums...)

4. Quadrophenia (double album MHA HA HA!)

5. X&Y

6. Viva La Vida

7. Suck It And See

8. What's The Story Morning Glory

9. Don't Believe The Truth

10. Soft Parade for when I do my tribal island moon dance. (Cause I would be very lonely and my brain would be fried from eating seaweed and dead birds....)

 

 

I'm sure I'll look back at this and think I was crazy, but right now I'd be happy with these for like a year. While these aren't nessisarily all of my favorite albums, they cover a wide area of emotion and situations, so I could switch them off according to how I'm feeling/the season.

Great lists so far everyone! An interesting trend that I'm noticing is that the large majority of our favorite albums come from the 90s and 00s.

 

So my question is do you just not like the albums from the earlier years? Or is it that you haven't really had the opportunity to explore them?

 

I agree about the 90s having some great music! I think it was the last decade of great creativity before the multinationals started taking over (also record labels :/). Same can be said about movies imo...

 

As for earlier years, I think a lot of it has to do also with the music you grow up with and I assume there are not many members here who were growing up in the 60s or even 70s :)

 

I´ll have to think about my 10 desert island albums hehe
