| 5.0 classic |
| Blur Think Tank |
| For me this is the best Blur album. It's experimental stuff but it just works for me. I like most of the other Blur albums too but this one sticks out for me. |
| Bob Marley and The Wailers Legend |
| This album is one of the best albums ever period. It's lifechanging music if ever there was any written in this world and the message is love, peace and unity. I can live with that. |
| Bob Marley and The Wailers Exodus |
| Bonnie 'Prince' Billy Lie Down in the Light |
| Brand New The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me |
| Counting Crows August And Everything After |
| This album came out when I was like 16/17 and I just loved everything about it and still do. The lyrics are beautifull and the song arrangements and composition stunning. |
| David Bowie The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars |
| Destroyer Kaputt |
| Eels Electro-Shock Blues |
| Godspeed You! Black Emperor Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven |
| This is just a stunning, stunning piece of music from start to finnish. The stories that are being told through these amazing compositions need to be told. The emotional content is translated so expertly by this very talented bunch of musicions. Going to see them live next year....Can't freaking wait! |
| Guns N' Roses Appetite for Destruction |
| This album is still one of the best rock albums ever. What happened to the band and Axl is sad to say the least but this album will stand the test of time. The rythms and melodies on this groovy record are timeless and Axl's voice and emotional content are stunning. |
| LCD Soundsystem LCD Soundsystem |
| LCD Soundsystem This Is Happening |
| Over halfway through 2010 and I have to say this is probably my favourite album for the year. As much as I love some of the other stuff like Broken Social Scene, The National, Caribou, Big Boi, Bonnie Prince Billy and many others (It's a great year for music) This one stands out! I rate LCD Soundsystem as one of the truely great bands of the last decade. I saw them live not that long ago and they absolutely blew my mind. It's one of the great musical experiences out there. What a gifted bunch of people. And apart from the great music it's the lyrics that as you delve into them make it worth your while. 5 out of 5 and than some! |
| Leftfield Leftism |
This is one of the best albums ever. Period.
Every single song on it is a five for me. And even compaired to the best electronic music made today it stills stands the test of time and is still better than most. |
| Miles Davis On the Corner |
| This stuff is just so funky! The first song is one of the finest pieces of music I've ever heard. Miles is associated with complex stuff but this one is straight forward and right in your face. Any one with even a slight interest in rock or funk should definately check this one out. |
| Modest Mouse The Moon & Antarctica |
| Neil Young Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere |
| I love Neil Young's music and on this album there is not a single track that's not anything less than wonderfull. |
| Neil Young Greatest Hits |
| Neutral Milk Hotel In the Aeroplane Over the Sea |
| For me this is an album which needs to seep into your soul slowly. You need time to get used to the sound of his voice and the lyrics. It's a great album to enjoy with good head phones because the sounds coming in through both sides complements eachother. Every single song on this album is amazing imo. |
| Paul Simon Graceland |
| I remember, when as a kid one day I was travelling through Scotland with my dad and my brother, and the driver had this strange but wonderfull music playing. I asked my dad what it was and he asked the driver: Paul Simon's Graceland he said. He said he'd been playing it for weeks and weeks and loved it. When I came home I got it, started listening to it and have been in love with it ever since. It's such a beautifull, happy, uplifting album. And allthough the songs seem simple they are not. They grab you with their hooks, rhythms, sounds and noises in the background and those great lyrics. This is an album to listen to and to charise for life. At least I will. |
| Pearl Jam Ten |
| Radiohead The Bends |
| Radiohead Kid A |
| Radiohead OK Computer |
| Radiohead In Rainbows |
| Shearwater Rook |
| Sigur Ros Agætis byrjun |
| Sigur Ros Med Sud i Eyrum vid Spilum Endalaust |
| Simon and Garfunkel The Concert in Central Park |
| Sufjan Stevens Illinois |
| This album is quite unique. The songs are composed with such creativity and you can listen to it time and again and be surprised again by the music. Plus you can dig into all of the different topics the sungs go into if your curious. Truly an album that deserves the title "classic". |
| Sufjan Stevens Seven Swans |
| For me this is Sufjan Stevens most beautifull record. The guitars, the singing, the compositions there all stunning. The lyrics are beautifull. There are so many highlights; The electric guitar on 'Sister' is heavenly, A good man is hard to find is such a beautifull song and 'He woke me up again' with that lovely guitar picking and those beautifull lines: But I was a sleep and he woke me up again. Illinois might be a more complex record and in my opinion certainly a master piece for sure but so is Seven Swans. |
| Supertramp The Very Best of Supertramp |
| Talking Heads Remain in Light |
| The Flaming Lips The Soft Bulletin |
| This album took a while to grow on me. The singing anoyed me for some time and the sounds of the instruments did not quite click with me but than one night as I lay listening to it on the headphones it just clicked and than I loved it and I thought it might just be absolutely beautifull. An album to be explored for a very long time. |
| The Mountain Goats The Sunset Tree |
| The National Alligator |
| The Prodigy Music for the Jilted Generation |
| The Velvet Underground Loaded |
| Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Greatest Hits |
| U2 Achtung Baby |
| U2 The Joshua Tree |
| Wilco Yankee Hotel Foxtrot |
| This is one of those albums which prove that the album is definitaly not dead. It is the only way in which a story can be told. The songs work best when heard together. For me it's the perfect companion to the Flaming lips' soft bulletin. It is also one of those albums where you just like with great books f.i., have to put in some work to really get it. You need to listen to it again and again untill you can't seem to go a week before listening to it again. |
