| Albums that should be considered classics on here
When i say classic i dont mean good or underrated, but an album that has held the test of time and has had a significant influence or importance for a given genre. All these albums/artists to some degree deserve the same love as something like radiohead on this site. imo ofc | | 1 |  | The Dubliners
More of the Hard Stuff
The dubliners were a important band in the folk revival era of the 60's, more specifically ireland. Their entire discography is gold, but this album in particular manages from front to back to entertain to no end, with tons of humor and bangers in the mix. Their influence can be seen in much irish folk after their debut, as well as some influence in american folk to a smaller degree. The Pogues have also stated this band as a huge influence on their folk punk sound, while the two bands played a live version of the irish rover together.(find it on youtube, great show :) ) | | 2 |  | John Fahey
Death Chants, Breakdowns and Military Waltzes
John fahey singlehandedly created the genre of american primitive guitar, which is a feat not many can claim. Though he was not without strong influence from others, particularly american folk music and country blues. I would say an artist that very directly takes influence from this kind of guitar pplaying is six organs of admittence on for octavio pas, where the same kind of droning bass lines accompany bluesy pentatonic licks. | | 3 |  | Lemon Demon
Dinosaurchestra
Hold your horses now, while this album might not be musically sophisticated like other albums that are considered classics, it is exactly that nature which makes it a classic. This album, as well as neil ciceregas other work, laid much of the groundwork for modern memes. He was one of the first and most popular to make the kind of youthful jokes and skits that would become immensly popular on sites like newgrounds. As for artist he has influenced, then you can just look at the entirety of the internet, as it's all memes nowadays. | | 4 |  | Meshuggah
Nothing
While this band is by no means unknown at all, it still stands underappreciated for it's influence on the modern metal scene. Not just in terms of djent and proggresive metal, but also metalcore, deathcore and to some degree the new resurgance of nu metal. | | 5 |  | Gore
Mean Man's Dream
While this band might not have had the biggest influence on sludge/noise metal, i still feel their early inovation of that sound should be praised more, as they were about as early as the melvins. Musically i can see why some might find them lacking, as the sound was very rough around the edges at this time, but that even more than not, cements them as an important player in the evolution of the genre. imo ofc, so keep it civil :) | |

06.22.21 | I most humbly beg to differ on 4, though that's just me of course.
I've always wished that Jane's Addiction and the Black Crowes got more appreciation here. Don't tend to hear them discussed much... | fogza
06.23.21 | I love the Black Crowes, although mostly the first three records. | chemicalmarriage
06.23.21 | Dude just rate them a 5 and they are now considered a classic at least by you. Your opinion is the only one that matters. I believe in you | GhandhiLion
06.23.21 | Death chants is good and all but it's not that significant | Koris

Yep. Nothing's Shocking is a fucking classic | JKing92
06.23.21 | Nothing but truth. "Summertime Rolls" is one of my go-to summer songs. | JKing92
06.23.21 | Precisely why I disagreed with their placement. Though, as mentioned, anyone is welcome to the opinion that they are underappreciated. | bigguytoo9
06.23.21 | Man NOTHING is my all time fave Meshuggah album. Ive seen them 5x and STILL hope each time they play Closed Eye Visuals but no luck so far. | rabidfish
06.23.21 | john fahey is considered a classic in its niche, tbh. don't get this need for validation from... who exactly? | Ryus
