15 Of The Best
15 of my favorite...kinda ranked | | 1 |  | Thrice
Vheissu
I doubt many people with agree with me here, but I think it's the perfect mix of melodic and aggressive thrice. Case in point: Between the End and Where We Lie and Of Dust And Nations | | 2 |  | Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here
Does this need explaining? | | 3 |  | Megadeth
Rust In Peace
Progressive-like thrash metal. Easily the 'Deth's best album. | | 4 |  | Pink Floyd
Animals
Once again...I don't think this needs explaining. | | 5 |  | Steely Dan
Aja
Steely Dan is one of the most overlooked bands ever. The title track is as perfect as music can get, the jazz influence on this album (and the band in general) works so well to set them apart from other 70s rock acts. | | 6 |  | Thrice
The Illusion of Safety
This album blew me away when I first heard it. And it still does even today. | | 7 |  | Oasis
Whats The Story Morning Glory
Oasis had it perfect for a little while. Then perfect got boring, and people wanted better than perfect, which, well...can't be done. | | 8 |  | Fleetwood Mac
Rumours
Oh what an album. Just goes to show that when people are miserable they tend to write better music (sometimes) | | 9 |  | John Mayer
Continuum
Mr. Mayer finally gets it right with a great album of relaxing, relatively bluesy guitar and catchy tunes. | | 10 |  | Cut Copy
In Ghost Colours
Possibly the best synth work of this decade. | | 11 |  | Joe Satriani
Surfing With The Alien
Some of the best instrumental rock ever | | 12 |  | Herbie Hancock
Headhunters
My personal favorite fusion album ever. | | 13 |  | Guns n' Roses
Appetite For Destruction
It's raw, it's pure, and it's pretty damn good. | | 14 |  | Thrice
The Artist in the Ambulance
Not quite as good as Vheissu or Illusion, but still fucking awesome. Hoods of Peregrine is extremely underrated. | | 15 |  | Coldplay
Viva la Vida
Say what you want...this is a solid album in my book. Songs like 42, Strawberry Hill, and the title track are true standouts. | |

07.13.09 | 9 is great, 14 > Illusion, 15 absolutely rules, 13 is shit, Oasis were never perfect, 1 is brilliant | handoman
07.13.09 | a lot will agree with 1. i havent heard a lot of these | GoodApollo12492
07.13.09 | all good but 5,8,9, and 12 | theacademy
07.13.09 | 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 14 = great
13 = best
15 + 9 = embarassing | BallsToTheWall
07.13.09 | Hey bro, Beleif is an amazing song. 2 is perfect. As is 14. Might up that to 5. | Chewie
07.13.09 | great list, props for 12 | ninjuice
07.13.09 | Continuum is awesome idiots.
Same with Vheissu and Viva La Vida. | Yotimi
07.14.09 | Not bad, but 10 has far from the best synth work of this decade. It's a pretty straightfoward electropop album (still pretty good though). | strikey
07.14.09 | theacademy have you even fucking heard Viva La Vida? Guessing not, looking at your ratings. What a state. | theacademy
07.14.09 | fucking TRUST ME, I"VE HEARD IT
all the middle-age to menaupausal women i worked with last summer played that faggy shit NON-STOP.
and thanks for taking the time to look through my ratings | strikey
07.14.09 | cant honestly say i enjoyed doing it, it gave me a headache.
however much you dislike 15 though, it's hardly embarrassing. it's widely accepted as a good album, even by people who disliked their previous stuff ^^ | nodnerB
07.14.09 | The song Viva la Vida sounds insanely like Take That. | theacademy
07.14.09 | if listening to it gave you a headache too, then why u bustin my balls, bro? | Fxxkit13
07.14.09 | Yay threee! | strikey
07.14.09 | i meant that going through your ratings gave me a headache; i love the album. | Aids
07.14.09 | Some awesome albums here, good list. And theacademy, you're an idiot. I hate when people go on lists and just tell people which albums suck. It's so pompous. | theacademy
07.14.09 | right, because its just me:
strikey 07.13.09 9 is great, 14 > Illusion, 15 absolutely rules, 13 is shit, Oasis were never perfect, 1 is brilliant
GoodApollo12492 07.13.09 all good but 5,8,9, and 12
theacademy 07.13.09 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 14 = great
13 = best
15 + 9 = embarassing
nobody cares that i heaped praise on much of this list...the only thing that keeps coming up is that i took a shot at Coldplay's record...jeez | Fxxkit13
07.14.09 | dont worry coldplay sucks anyway
| theacademy
07.14.09 | well yea, thats a given | Masochist
07.14.09 | LOL...I love that you have both Joe Satriani and 'Viva La Viva' on the same list :-P
Anyways...#'s 1, 2, 4 (presumably), 6, 7, 9, 14 and 15 all rule. Extra props for #9, that one is very underrated on this site, despite the fact that a lot of people like it.
Good stuff. | ConorMichaelJoseph
07.14.09 | 2, 3, 4, and 13 rule. 15 is grand too. | MetalMassacreAttack
07.14.09 | Good list, nice name.
Respect for: 2,3,7,11, 13 |
