| Top 10 Albums
Remake of RYM list, top 10 favorite albums and reasons why | 1 | | American Football American Football
Simply put, no other album makes me feel the way this one does, or as strongly as
this one does. Holds so many memories of listening to this over and over again, and
it helped sparked my interest in the emo genre as well. The ultimate "feels" album. | 2 | | Boards of Canada Music Has The Right To Children
Speaking of memories, this album is basically nostalgia put into music form. Listening
to this actually conjures up memories of childhood with its warm synth tones and
light, floaty atmosphere. | 3 | | Madvillain Madvillainy
Perhaps the most consistent album I've ever heard, Madvillainy is 22 tracks of lyrical
and musical genius. From MF DOOM's witty and humorous lyrical wizardry to Madlib's
jazzy, soulful production, Madvillainy is the product of a match made in heaven. | 4 | | My Bloody Valentine Loveless
More of a singular musical piece than a collection of tracks, Loveless seems violently
abrasive at first, but slowly reveals itself as an oddly relaxing album. Like floating
atop a vast sea of feedback and noise. | 5 | | Slint Spiderland
Spiderland is about as understated as music gets, defying any and all conventions of
rock music without seemingly even trying. Cold, monochrome, unfeeling; the music
of aliens. | 6 | | Godspeed You! Black Emperor Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas...
Slint's polar opposite on the post-rock spectrum, Godspeed's masterpiece is one of
the most epic, intense, powerful, cinematic, and emotionally-varied albums I've ever
heard. (F#A# Infinity comes in at a very close second, but I decided to leave it out
of the list in the interest of having one artist per entry) | 7 | | Nick Drake Pink Moon
Those sleepless nights spent by the late, great, then-unknown folkie Nick Drake in
producing this record certainly paid off. Emotionally stark and poignantly beautiful,
Pink Moon's musically stripped-down approach ultimately ends up being the key to its
strength. | 8 | | Radiohead OK Computer
I owe it all to this record, basically this is the one album that really got me into
music. OK Computer finds a unique style in-between Radiohead's previous
alternative rock sound and their subsequent full-on electronic approach. Brimming
with variety, this album is a rollercoaster ride of emotions, with an underlying sense
of fear and paranoia. | 9 | | DJ Shadow Endtroducing.....
Before this album I had very little interest in hip-hop, but this completely blew my
mind, as well as blowing any preconceived notions of hip-hop music out of the water.
Constructed completely from sampled music, Endtroducing stands as a strong artistic
statement that you can create new art from old art. | 10 | | Refused The Shape Of Punk To Come
With this record, Refused essentially take the genre of post-hardcore and stretch it
wide open, allowing elements of jazz, dub, electronica, and even Middle-Eastern
music to find their way into these songs. The perfect mix of punk spirit and artistic
ambition. | |
