I voted Ten, but I could go without hearing any of these again for the rest of my life.

Yeah, I went with Ten too, but really would be okay if I never heard it again. Or at the very least, never hearing side one again.

The Flaming Lips

If it had been Dark Side instead of The Wall, I would have faced the rather of others and went with Pink Floyd.

This was actually kinda tough. I went with Ten, but there are still parts of The Wall that hold up well (the sound of the beach boys on The Show Must Go On in headphones still gets the armhairs up), and I really loved The Soft Bulletin for awhile, but I never listen to any of these anymore.

It sounds like this is the "Good albums I don't listen to anymore" group.

Flaming Lips, no contest.

I haven't heard that Wedding Present album, though. I should.

Goddamn you people voting for Ten.

The Wedding Present. The only thing that even comes remotely close is Pearl Jam. I don't like The Wedding Present's other albums though, but Seamonsters is one of my favorites of all time, oddly.

Ten. Seeing as I am in my late 20s, none of the others come close for me. The Soft Bulletin is aight, but I just haven't ever been a huge Flaming Lips fan.

Not a huge fan of any of these. But I do at least like the Lips' album.

I did. (i listened to it last week after Pink Floyd came up in chat and was surprised that I still liked a lot of it. "In The flesh" is awesome)
