omik11303 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I'll be participating. I have a running list going on a Word document actually, but I'm pretty sure it's 25 albums in no particular order. It'll be fun to pare it down to the top ten.

GreatGreenOne77 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I was really excited to see yours because of your age. I love that it is pretty diverse too, having Dylan and Misfits on the same list is badass. If I had to live off one Dylan album it would be Slow Train Coming, even though there are so many other songs I would miss. And fuck yes Beastie Boys. I fucking love that, dude! Bro, I walked around the entire summer between 5th & 6th grade with a copy of Licensed to Ill copied over another tape so my parents wouldn't know I had it.. Now that I'm grown and pick out all the parts about getting drunk and smoking angel dust I see why my parents didn't want me to have it that young lol.. But I had no idea what that shit meant, it was just the shit and you were not cool if you weren't in to Beasties.. Thanks for love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappingtheyears Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I can't tell you how fucking hard it was for me to choose between Foo's S/T and Colour. Like, holy fuck. That was painful. Also, I love you for having Foo, and Nirvana. Linkin Park threw me a bit. Haha. I was so torn between the two. Honestly, deciding between the two is what took the longest when compiling the list. There are definitely songs I would miss off Colour, but songs like Big Me, Alone + Easy Target, and Exhausted are too good to ever pass up. As far as Linkin Park goes... hahah. I don't think I'll ever get sick of that record. Kind of a nostalgic record for me, but whatever. It has definitely has stood the test of time. I can still go back and jam it and be just as stoked as I was when i first listened to it 15 years ago. Can't stand anything they put out after Meteora, though.

Gastr del Sol - Camoufleur 5. Have A Nice Life - Deathconsciousness 6. Björk - Post 7. DJ Shadow - Endtroducing..... 8. Slint - Spiderland 9. The Cure - Disintegration 10.

FUCK YOU. I Am Hollywood over Suck Out The Poison, interesting. And Foreward is an interesting choice. Picking my favorite Moving Mountains album would be tough, but I think Pneuma squeezes by the winner. Foreward would be a close second. Waves would be second if it were older.

Foreward would be a close second. Didn't really follow He Is Legend after I Am Hollywood, which is an album I've listened to a thousand times, and it never gets old. I thought about Foreword vs Pneuma for a couple of minutes and actually put Pneuma first, but I would be lying if I said it's my favorite.

I didn't think I Am Hollywood was that strong. It's definitely been a while since I've heard it. You should listen to Suck Out. The album is damn solid. It all flows really well, the theme is fantastic, the mastering is great. Definitely an album I visit regularly, especially if I'm in a heavy mood. I love the raw energy of Foreward, but Pneuma, there is just something about that album I can't shake. Gun to my head Pneuma wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omik11303 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Actually wasn't too hard. Very few albums fit into my "couldn't live without" category.

(2010) Moving Mountains - Foreword (2008) That's an interesting list for sure. Some of those take me by surprise considering what threads you frequent. I didn't know you were such a big Moving Mountains fan, so that's badass. Glad to see Jakob made the cut, but I'm surprised Blueneck didn't. And you still don't have that Deadhorse album? I might have to part with it and let you have it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 <p> And I thought making that Top 100 playlist on iTunes was tough ... The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (well, it'll be 5 years old soon enough, so I might as well include it already) The Beatles - Rubber Soul Nick Drake - Pink Moon The Doors - The Doors New Order - Substance 1987 Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures Michael Jackson - Thriller Coldplay - Parachutes Iggy & the Stooges - Raw Power Isn't that New Order record a greatest hits compilation?
