All the while bundling it into a cinematic world of just trying to finally break free and make something of oneself. An absolute marvel and achievement.Kendrick Lamar To Pimp a ButterflyNas IllmaticNirvana NevermindIt's Kurt Cobain's dynamic, poetic lyricism and Dave Grohl's pounding, thunderous drum play that doesn't just bite you into place - it spellbounds.Nirvana In UteroEven with the impressively mangled but coordinated production, it's Cobain's descending spirit and fractured soul that strengthens and cradles the record's core.Oneohtrix Point Never ReplicaPortishead DummyQueens of the Stone Age Rated RQueens of the Stone Age Songs for the DeafRage Against the Machine Rage Against the MachineRise Against The Sufferer and the WitnessSol Invictus In the RainA storybook odyssey that feels and acts like its titular self. The melancholic tone, the pain. Sol Invictus delivers a masterpiece that relishes in its agony and unleashes cathartic freedom from one's own soul. An absolute masterwork.System of a Down ToxicityThe Stooges Raw PowerThe White Stripes White Blood CellsTool Lateralus4.5 superbBruce Springsteen The Legendary 1979 No Nukes ConcertsEminem The Marshall Mathers LPGorillaz Demon DaysLinkin Park MeteoraMore mature and introspective than it's undeniable dynamo predecessor, Meteora is packed to leave a punch to its own ego and unleash the truth behind the rage that inspired itself and Hybrid Theory. In my honest opinion, this record leaves a powerful impact that shows Linkin Park at the height of their game. A true gem.

It's the well lit safe house of the self-loathing cynical misanthrope, and you know what, I absolutely loved it.Mastodon Once More 'Round the SunWith Mastodon's technical wizardry and masculine but glossy production, Once More 'Round the Sun's shine sparks off each track like a ray coming off the beaming sun.Nirvana MTV Unplugged in New YorkOutKast StankoniaParamore All We Know Is FallingPlacebo Without You I'm NothingPlacebo Sleeping with Ghostssix impala RUBBERThe Smiths The SmithsThe Smiths Meat Is MurderThe Smiths The Queen Is DeadTool UndertowTool 10,000 DaysTycho EpochTycho created one of the most chill but subversively exciting records I've ever had the fortune to listen to.

In fact if you take out MVP tracks "What I've Done", "Bleed it out" and "Given Up" you have one album that when compared to LP's previous efforts feels like LP-lite.Nickelback The StateRed Hot Chili Peppers The Red Hot Chili PeppersSaliva Back Into Your SystemThe Knife Shaking the Habitual2.0 poorNickelback Silver Side Up
