[beso negro]

Great job

No Nas or !!! make me upset

[Zebra]

I can't beleive how Songs for the Deaf placed so well.

[Zorg]

A little upset that The Dismemberment Plan isn't even on the list. Q_Q

[beso negro]

On further inspection, Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea is way too high.

[Little Man being Erased]

I can't beleive how Songs for the Deaf placed so well.
Yeah, I don't think it's even close to their best.

[beso negro]

Na, Songs for the Deaf is a solid album. Easy to get into.

[YDload]

pfft, Source Tags and Codes is way better than OK Computer. Radiohead sucks.

[Zorg]

It always makes me cringe to see a band like Oasis on the list and like The Microphones getting shafted.

Also OK Computer is too high.

[Jacaranda]

pfft, Source Tags and Codes is way better than OK Computer. Radiohead sucks.

123
Well I do like Radiohead but Source Tags is 10x better.

Not bias at all, though.

[morrissey]

It turned out pretty well overall but Songs for the Deaf at #3 is bull****.

[Zappa]

****.

[pixiesfanyo]

This list didn't turn well at all.

Horrible.

[SubtleDagger]

Terrible

Terrible

Terrible

[YDload]

true

not as bad as you guys are saying though

at least Sun Kil Moon is in the top 20. Might have never happened if you hadn't convinced me to listen to it. i mean, I alone couldn't have put it up to that spot, but it's formed a lasting impression on me so thanks for that :)

[Zappa]

Actually, all you successfully accomplished was further skewing a list based on whims by intimidating people into listening to something and immediately evaluating it.

[Little Man being Erased]

C'mon, the list is pretty good.

[Robert Crumb]

There are no Outkast albums on this list. List is null. **** you cunts.

Actually, all this turn out proved is that the jury is still out on a number of albums that haven't received the proper historical/critical chopblock that they deserve. And that there is an unspoken glut of of Queens of the Stone Age fans out there. I didn't think they'd do that well, but look at that.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm just happy that a Ryan Adams album at least made the list.

[Anxious]

I didn't participate whatsoever but it looks like a pretty crap list.

[pixiesfanyo]

The list is missing all the other genres, that made the other lists good.

The other lists were well rounded. This is all hipster indie ****.

[Anxious]

The list is missing all the other genres, that made the other lists good.

The other lists were well rounded. This is all hipster indie ****.

I'd have to agree.

[Little Man being Erased]

It's only hipster indie **** because that's what we listen to in this hipster indie forum.

[Anxious]

Well the people that bothered to make lists anyway.

[pixiesfanyo]

I don't listen to hipster indie ****.

[Little Man being Erased]

I don't either.

[StaticSynth]

pfft, Source Tags and Codes is way better than OK Computer. Radiohead sucks.

Jeez, you guys rag on OK Computer and over-praise Source Tags every chance you get.

Arcade Fire shouldn't be anywhere near the Top 30, oh well. Not a bad list overall.

[SubtleDagger]

The list is also lame because crap like Weezer and Opeth have high positions

Two QotSA in the top ten is ridiculous as is Oasis even being on the list

Also Jane Doe is at 28 which is way too low and it's the only Converge on the list -_-

[YDload]

Actually, all you successfully accomplished was further skewing a list based on whims by intimidating people into listening to something and immediately evaluating it.

nacho wanted to edit his list to put a Ryan Adams album at number two.

[Little Man being Erased]

And he bloody well should have.



P.S. Hi, this list doesn't match my tastes, blah blah blah, I'm a little bitch.

[Little Man being Erased]

But it's not hard to reorder the list when you have it formatted with the list format. You just have to insert the new line and delete a line from the bottom.

[morrissey]

Heartbreaker is so damn good let's be honest.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, seriously.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, I kinda stopped halfway through writing that and thought, "kinda pointless now, huh?"

[SubtleDagger]

format line line list insert delete abort abort bad command or file name

[Alf™]

Go QOTSA! An average turnout, not a real range of diversity there.

[Kage]

I can understand most of my nominated albums not making that list, but this is an Alt&Indie forum. Shiner's The Egg should be on that list.

[Zmev]

No Jawbreaker = not official

[Eliminator]

haha

this list kinda blows

[Otherside]

I love how some people who are complaining didn't even make a list.

[BJ_maddog]

i can't believe that album over there isn't on the list


...over there...

[pulseczar]

I think the list is alright save QOTSA, Source Tags & Codes, The Bends and Weezer being so high

[dei]

What happened to Dismemberment Plan?

[mr_jackalope]

Source Tags and Codes? If You're Feeling Sinister? Endtro****ingducing? Funeral?

You guys serious?

[mr_jackalope]

Actually Pinkerton is the most baffling of the top 15, now that I look at it.

[Kyle]

Haha, I can understand Rated R making the top 10, but Songs for The Deaf at #3? That's just plain silly.

To be honest I think the list turned out quite well, there are always bound to be a few weird ones. The lack of OutKast is kinda upsetting....

[dei]

I think Pinkerton is a good record. Weezer's not the most indie band in the world, but that album had some good songs. "Across the Sea" is really good.

[mr_jackalope]

Fauxreal, are you fo real?

[mr_jackalope]

Oh god, did we rank The College Dropout? Legitimacy negated.

[beso negro]

Oasis even being on the list

what, pray tell, is wrong with oasis?

[dei]

I'm being serious. Pinkerton is a good record.
It was a good way for Weezer to go out.

[Kyle]

Weezer and Oasis are popular, they can't be on our list.

[Wanker]

that's what I'm here for man

but yeah guys that Sun Kil Moon album is phenomenal and you should all listen to me/YDload/asymm/br3ad_man/everyone

Do they have free downloads anywhere online?

[superpeer]

Haha, well I like it. I love Songs for the Deaf, Rated R and Pinkerton, they deserve to be on the list imo. But then I'm a R&M mod, so I have no cred.

I expected As the Roots Undo to rank higher. Endtroducing is a good winner, though.

[dei]

Weezer and Oasis are popular, they can't be on our list.
I don't want Oasis on the list either, but that's dumb way to think.

[Kyle]

I don't want Oasis on the list either, but that's dumb way to think.Yeah, sarcasm is a complicated thing.

[Iai]

NOTE: THERE IS NO IRONY IN THIS POST

Everything else Weezer did sucked ***, but Pinkerton is one of the 10 best records ever made.

NOTE: THERE IS NO IRONY IN THIS POST

[dei]

Blue isn't so bad.

[PinkFreud]

Too much Radiohead and QOTSA. Way too much.

[dei]

I didn't know Queens of the Stone Age made it onto the list. I really didn't read through it. I just hit ctrl + f and typed in a few band names.

That's really depressing.

[JonM]

There are no Outkast albums on this list. List is null. **** you cunts.That's because I didn't man up and remake my list. But other than that, I'm pretty pleased with it.

[beso negro]

That's really depressing.

QOTSA are never depressing. If you can't enjoy QOTSA, you may have a hearin' problem.

[SubtleDagger]

what, pray tell, is wrong with oasis?
Putting "pray tell" in a sentence like that makes me question your sanity

[dei]

QOTSA are never depressing. If you can't enjoy QOTSA, you may have a hearin' problem.
I think you're the one with the hearing problem.

[pixiesfanyo]

QoTSA rule.

But, not so much as having best albums of the decade.

[Matt?]

i think i just threw up a little. but then again i was too lazy to make a list.

[AlienEater]

This list isn't too great.

[Little Man being Erased]

Pinkerton is an awesome album. It deserves it's position on that list.

[pixiesfanyo]

Pinkerton is a solid album.

Certainly not a top 15.

[PECOAE]

I like the list

[AlienEater]

65 - 74 will be interesting.

[Eliminator]

I like the list

yours was the second worst

i shuold've made a list

[AlienEater]

who's was the first worst?

[Eliminator]

Alf's

[Kyle]

Wait, Dizzee Rascal didn't place at all? Wow, that sucks.

[PECOAE]

yours was the second worst

i shuold've made a list

My list was awesome.

[Eliminator]

O

[dei]

Link me to his/her list.

[AlienEater]

It's not difficult to find.

[PECOAE]

Link me to his/her list.

So you can, as they say, critique it?

You're a hipster. As am I.

Nothing anyone can say can demean my taste in music.

[dei]

I'm a hipster?

Oh my God, your list is horrible.

[PECOAE]

I'm a hipster?

Oh my God, your list is horrible.

IT BURNS

I'M MELTING

you suck get out of music

[dei]

I wish I could report people for having poor taste.

[PECOAE]

I wish I could report people for having poor taste.

why would you do that?

the thought police would have you in seconds

totalitarian son of a gun

[Eliminator]

pecoae stop trying

[dei]

Please.

[PECOAE]

thats true i dont need too

fauxreal = suck up

and pretty bad one.

why suck up to eliminator?

[dei]

Because I want him to like me.

[PECOAE]

i don't even have to answer that to insult you

[Eliminator]

fauxreal i love you

foreal

[dei]

:)!

[PECOAE]

fauxreal i love you

foreal

I don't see why he should be happy.

Anyway, back to the results.

The Strokes Room on Fire is awesome.

[dei]

No. Even looking at it from the perspective of a Strokes fan, it's still not that great. You could put it like on the lower half of your list if you're really that into it, but it doesn't deserve the top position on anything other than worst of the year lists.

[Matt?]

hahahahahaha the more i look at it the more confused i am.

the top twenty is mindblowing.

[PECOAE]

No. Room on Fire is their best album; it has the most diverse songs, and is just plain transcendent. It's not as robotic as Is This It? or as prog-inspired as First Impressions of Earth, and its got soul.

Reptilia blows the mind.

[Little Man being Erased]

I'm glad I don't have an opinion.

[Matt?]

This list didn't turn well at all.

Horrible.

seriously it is mindblowingly horrible. laughable almost. it's upsetting

[Jacaranda]

omg a list you don't agree with omg freak out

[Eliminator]

omg people that don't like a list omg

[PECOAE]

i like teh list

[Matt?]

omg i don't like a list omg wtf

[dei]

what's a list?

[PECOAE]

omfg dont you know a list is listing stuff duh doiii

[Zesty Mordant]

in comparison to the lists shat out by Rolling Stone, Spin, Pitchfork, AllMusic, Blender, etc....this list isn't all that bad.

Sure there are a lot of genre omissions, but no one seems to be complaining that Nirvana, White Stripes, Tool, The Mars Volta (ie. the usual outrages) have placed big or at all on the list.

But for the record, lists are just a bad idea in general

[Eliminator]

yeah but none of those bands placed #3

[Zesty Mordant]

I think Songs for the Deaf should be up there. Not #3 but at least in the top 10.

omg alterior motives

TMV deserves to be on this list.

I don't know why Nirvana would be.

Tool is gay.

White Stripes I have no problem with.

[beso negro]

TMV deserves to be on this list.

um, I'll take that as a joke.

hahahahahaha the more i look at it the more confused i am.

the top twenty is mindblowing.

get over it.

[Eliminator]

you're a joke

[pixiesfanyo]

i'm too indie to like TMV >: |.

i bet most people in here still like DiTC anyway.

because, i can bring up the thread from when it came out and everyone was wet about it.

[Kyle]

Is De-Loused not on the list? Because that would be kinda sad.

[beso negro]

I think the main problem was that some people just didn't sort their lists.

[Little Man being Erased]

Yeah, that probably didn't help.


And De-loused is on the list.

[Happymeal]

Opeth at #26? oh man..

[Zesty Mordant]

TMV deserves to be on this list.

I don't know why Nirvana would be.

Tool is gay.

White Stripes I have no problem with.

bah, I'm not saying who should be on the list but that the usual suspects that frequent lists in the first place (and that always seem to cause controversy) are missing.

why you have to go and makes things so complicated?

[Otherside]

why you have to go and makes things so complicated?


I SEE THE WAY YOU'RE ACTING LIKE SOMEBODY ELSE GETS ME FRUSTRATED

@ Belle & Sebastain

[Little Man being Erased]

I noticed that no-one actually had Endtroducing... as their number 1 album, but it was highly ranked (top 10-ish) by nearly everyone.

[Little Man being Erased]

controversy

[Kage]

Beelzebub.

[Robert Crumb]

Why does Cracked exist?

[pixiesfanyo]

It's MAD for gay people.

[Zmev]

Endtroducing > any single B&S album

[Robert Crumb]

Cracked was the magazine stupid kids brought to elementary school. Me, I had old MAD issues from the 70's because I'm crazy hardcore. Kurtzman 4 lif.

Also, I'd probably concede that Endtroducing... is a more significant album than anything B&S ever put out, but I'd rather listen to Dog on Wheels EP over any four Shadow tracks ever committed to plastic.

[Zesty Mordant]

I must've lived in poverty when I was younger 'cause my parents always bought me Cracked and not MAD.

[2muchket!]

Muse not in the top 20, not happeh.

[Alf™]

Alf's

:lol: It wasn't that bad.

[Little Man being Erased]

Muse not in the top 20, not happeh.
You should be glad that they're even on the list at all.

[androo]

this lists are completely useless in my opinion. Basically no one agrees with the list, so whats the point? People just argue and whine about how their ****ty favorite band isnt on the list. I guess its kind of cool to see what a groups opinion is, but at the same time, if everyone disagrees with it to some degree, its pretty useless. make your own top # lists.

[SubtleDagger]

It matters because it's A/I where everything must be jocked

[Bartender]

We did. That's kind of how this list was constructed.

[Eliminator]

at least the ****ty lists generate some discussion

You should be glad that they're even on the list at all.

Exactly.

[superpeer]

I like Muse. :(

girly rock ftw

[team_racket]

deftones and boards of canada too low, and neutral milk wayyy too high. relationship of command shouldnt even be in there.

[PECOAE]

Muse is awesome.

Whether people agree or disagree with the list is neither here nor there. The point is that this list is about as good a representation of the entire group's top 100 albums of the decade as you're likely to get with not too much effort.

[Little Man being Erased]

Hey Nacho/Robert Crumb:

How many points did Double Nickels on the Dime score in the 75-84 list?

[PinkFreud]

deftones and boards of canada too low, and neutral milk wayyy too high. relationship of command shouldnt even be in there.
...But the Deftones should be higher? You're insane. And also have bad taste.

[something vague]

Quick YDload, ban him for being a troll!

[SubtleDagger]

...But the Deftones should be higher? You're insane. And also have bad taste.
White Pony is amazing

RoC is ATDI's worst album

[androo]

i dont disagree, i just dont really like these types of lists because its stupid to compare artists that dont play similar music. Alternative/indie is so broad. If it was like, best indie electronica or something more specific it would make a little bit more sense, but how do you say that 1 band from one genre is better than another? not a big deal

[mr_jackalope]

Thing is, it wasn't "top 100 A/I albums of 95-04", it was a list of your favorite albums, regardless of type, for that time period.

I'm glad we've gotten some hard-hitting commentary from androo in this thread. I was on the edge of my seat.

[Jawaharal]

Ugh. This list is pretty bad.

Songs For The Deaf #3? Porcupine Tree in the top 100!?

[Little Man being Erased]

i dont disagree, i just dont really like these types of lists because its stupid to compare artists that dont play similar music. Alternative/indie is so broad.

We're not comparing albums or saying one album is better than another. Each person who creates a list is nominating their personal favourite albums. Opinions, y'know? Nothing more, nothing less.

[EightMilesHigh]

DJ Shadow is cool.

yeah but he's not that amazingly mind-blowingly good.

[Robert Crumb]

Hey Nacho/Robert Crumb:

How many points did Double Nickels on the Dime score in the 75-84 list?

2136

[Matt?]

how does this not have "only built 4 cuban linx" anywhere.

jesus that is like a top twenty maybe even top ten album

[Zesty Mordant]

^^
Hell, Illmatic is not on that list, that's even more of a shock considering how many people love that album.

[SubtleDagger]

Illmatic was '94

People keep forgetting this

[pixiesfanyo]

Truth.

[Little Man being Erased]

2136
Schweet.

I'm thinking after the 65-74 list, I'll post the top 100 for 1965-2004.

[PinkFreud]

White Pony is amazing

RoC is ATDI's worst album
Eh. I disagree on both counts.

[beso negro]

^^
Hell, Illmatic is not on that list, that's even more of a shock considering how many people love that album.

No, but Stillmatic should have been on this.

The absence of rap on this list is the most appalling thing.

[SubtleDagger]

Stillmatic was alright but definitely not one of the 100 best of the decade

[team_racket]

...But the Deftones should be higher? You're insane. And also have bad taste.

i beg to differ. white pony was unique. roc was an absolute yawn-fest.

[Bukowski]

**** nas
**** deftones
**** at the drive in


where's the Unwound niggas?

[Sam]

Granted, I have no room to talk because I didn't submit a list, but...that list is humorously bad.

[Zesty Mordant]

Illmatic was '94

People keep forgetting this

....no you shut up

[mick7]

Can safely say I'm happy that Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, Muse and Tool made it - nice list!

[YDload]

wow, a 2001 veteran. welcome back :)

[Matt?]

**** nas
**** deftones
**** at the drive in


where's the Unwound niggas?

as much as unwound rules i dunno if i would be able to justify putting it in my top 100.

but seriously

**** deftones

[br3ad_man]

I think the list is pretty decent really. Except for Tool.

[convulsion]

Tool is a good band.

[mick7]

wow, a 2001 veteran. welcome back :)

I was always still here but just never thought about posting until a couple of days ago when I realised how good MX used to be!

Deftones are awesome BW.

[sobelecta]

This an awful list. QOTSA? Pah.

[Bukowski]

as much as unwound rules i dunno if i would be able to justify putting it in my top 100.


fair enough, but I can honestly say I'd take my 2 favorite Unwound albums over any of the top 14 in this list.

[Luxor]

Endtroducing is number one ROFL

yea ok

[PinkFreud]

i beg to differ. white pony was unique. roc was an absolute yawn-fest.
Agree to disagree. I can't stand Chino Moreno or anything he sings on. Just awful.

[team_racket]

live his voice is patchy. on record his voice is beautiful. if you had mentioned any other atdi i would respect your opinion, but roc is just rubbish. even the band hated it. and just becasue you cant stand moreno, doesnt mean anything he has done doesnt warrant a place in that chart.

[Matt?]

um in an era this broad filled with gems, i can't really find anything in the deftones good enough to warrant a spot on this list. i thought they were good when i was like thirteen.

also they sucked live. terrible.

[Hedgedive]

Discovery (Daft Punk) should've ranked higher, and I think Homework should've made the list somewhere (at least near the end).

I think RoC deserves its spot.

I listed Acrobatic Tenement and the Vayay EP on my list. I just prefer RoC. A lot. Dunno why, I just do. I don't really care what the members thought of it. ****, Cedric and Omar just released Amputechture which is a completely awful album. If they thought that was good enough to release I will completely disregard their opinions from now on.

I hate Chino's voice recorded. It's all preference though.

[team_racket]

i guess. opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.

[SubtleDagger]

I don't have a spatula

I use tongs most of the time

[Jacaranda]

RoC is AtDI shining moment every prior to it was just building up to it and then everything after it is just going suck more and more. Sparta as a whole and then De-Loused to Frances to the last awful one.
The Deftones are good for what they play but other then that they are nothing special.

[Zorg]

Needs more of The Microphones. Also The Moon and Antarctica should be higher.

[Cygnus Inter Anates]

lol @ Mogwai's worst album being on here

[SubtleDagger]

Mogwai has a worst album?

I really haven't heard anything that great from them so idk

[Zappa]

lol @ Mogwai's worst* album being on here

*only good

[Cygnus Inter Anates]

lies lies lies

young team is their only worthwile album

[Zappa]

Young Team is tedious trash. I really wonder if anyone would like it if it wasn't "supposed to be" their best.

[SubtleDagger]

I think Weezer being so high is much more of a crime than Mogwai getting an album in, as little as I enjoy Mogwai

A CRIME I SAY

[Cygnus Inter Anates]

QOTSA and Muse being on this list is worse

[PECOAE]

No.

[SubtleDagger]

QOTSA and Muse being on this list is worse
Muse yes, but they're not that high

QOTSA I agree on but I'm tired of bringing it up since apparently the forum is insane about them for some extremely odd reason

[Matt?]

2 qotsa in the top ten.

hahahahahahahahaha

[PECOAE]

You mean:

MUAHAHAHAH!!!

[Matt?]

hahahahahahhaha i like cryptopsy but it's wierd that they are on this list.

something about this list makes me keep looking at it. i'm not sure if i have fully absorbed the madness that it is.

[Luxor]

QOTSA is good shiet.

[sobelecta]

Naaaaaw man. Shurrup man.

[AlienEater]

They're good.

[convulsion]

i recently started heavily getting into the QOTSA it might be the Marijuana or they're that good.

[SubtleDagger]

QOTSA are decent but uh that doesn't mean they have two albums that are in the top 100 of the decade

Or the top 20 for that matter

[convulsion]

well somebody thought so.

[beso negro]

QOTSA are decent but uh that doesn't mean they have two albums that are in the top 100 of the decade

Why the hell not?

Oh that's right, top 100 lists are for pretentious ****.

btw where is your list?

[Eliminator]

haha

[Kyle]

Hey, if lists were only for pretentious ****, then this one would look a whole lot different!

QOTSA are a good band, but I personally think there are much better releases below them in the list.

[convulsion]

the majority doesn't think so

[Kyle]

Yeah, but;
A) Quite a few people didn't order their lists, which may have caused innacuracies.
B) The reaction in this thread seems to suggest if more people had taken the time to submit a list, then the results would have been quite different.
C) My oppinion is more important than any majority

[Jacaranda]

Meh I'm surprised at how bitchy everyone is getting. The first two weren't exactly perfect yet people took them as they were; a popularity contest with numbers attached to them.
srlsy guys.

[Eliminator]

yeah srsly guys i mean jeez

[SubtleDagger]

Why the hell not?

Oh that's right, top 100 lists are for pretentious ****.

btw where is your list?
I was too busy to make a list

Not that not including QOTSA on it would have stopped morons from getting it into the top 20

[Zebra]

Meh I'm surprised at how bitchy everyone is getting. The first two weren't exactly perfect yet people took them as they were; a popularity contest with numbers attached to them.
srlsy guys.

My thoughts exactly.

[Eliminator]

well when a popularity contest doesn't involve QOTSA and Muse ring me up

[Zorg]

The other lists didn't have as much bitching because the albums that landed in their top spots were pretty much canonized in the the "good" music category.

These albums are still all pretty much up for debate.

[AlienEater]

And come on Rated R is a great album.

[Eliminator]

Is it a Top 10 album?

[Little Man being Erased]

Yes.


Time for 65-74?

Yes.

[Zebra]

Yes.


Time for 65-74?

Yes.

Yes, it's definitely time.

[Rejd]

Actually, all you successfully accomplished was further skewing a list based on whims by intimidating people into listening to something and immediately evaluating it.

I think you have a good point.
Another way of doing this could be to have everyone not posting their lists directly on the forum, but sending them to Little Man Being Erased.
Then when the results are presented, the nominees could be listed separately as well.

Just a thought, but I like it the way it works now.

[d0ped0g]

The reason why everybody is bitchy and moany is because all you guys disagree with the opinions of the masses... that's why we're in alt/indie right?!

But all of the EXTREME indie kids are even disagreeing with their own group, even though its an opinion of a collective mass of mass opinion disagreement!
