See how subjective music is ;)

In my opinion, Sgt. Pepper is much better than Siamese Dream (I can't believe I'm comparing those two...), it's one of the greatest pieces ever written and it (well, actually the Beatles themselves) had quite a big "impact" on my life...

 

....ah, btw, I'm 29...

 

It all depends on the person I suppose.  I'm a big Beatles fan, but I'm an even bigger Pumpkins fan.  To me it's very silly to argue with anyone about which band or album is better than another.  Very subjective indeed.

They told me that the classics never go out of style, but they do, they do. Somehow baby, I never thought that we do too.

My vote goes to Refused's The Shape of Punk to Come.

This letter has some of my favorite albums making this the toughest decision yet. I put this just a notch above Songs to Fan the Flames... given it being more of a consistent album. I really cannot dismiss how much this album has influenced me from not only a musical standpoint, but a personal standpoint as well. Blending elements of Ink & Dagger, Fugazi, thrashy NYHC bands like Sick of It All, Nation of Ulysses, Snapcase and more this album really reinvented the genres of punk, hardcore and post-hardcore. Simple, yet very much complicated aggressive music with a strong political alter-ego.

Honorable Mentions:

Refused - Songs to Fan the Flames of Discontent

Gorilla Biscuits - Start Today

Cock Sparrer - Shock Troops

Specials - Specials

Sick of It All - Scratch the Surface

Slayer - South of Heaven

The Appleseed Cast - Sagarmatha

Bush - Sixteen Stone

Propagandhi - Supporting Caste

Millencolin - Same Old Tunes

The Mountain Goats - The Sunset Tree

Hot Snakes – Suicide Invoice

Ugly Casanova - Sharpen Your Teeth

Kid Dynamite - Shorter, Faster, Louder

Quicksand - Slip

Ceremony - Still, Nothing Moves You

Pixies - Surfer Rosa

Portugal. The Man - Satanic Satanist

The Adicts - Sound of Music

Sorry bro, I didn't realize we couldn't express opinions around here. These opinions are done silently through the up/down votes and they're not stirring up any trouble. I didn't realize life revolves around these up/down votes. My bad.

Beatles superfans are some of the worst to argue music with. They always turn it around and go "come on, you don't like the Beatles? Look at the rest of the world! Look at this list that has them as the number one band ever! Look at how many albums they sold! There's no way I can be wrong."

 

You don't get that nearly as much when you critique Dylan, the rolling stones, the who, Zeppelin, etc,..
