I could've easily added #12, 14, 19 and 28 on my 100 list.

I see you dig the Afghan Whigs enough to put them twice on your list.

I concur.

Bold #3.

Easily my favorite by one of my old favorite bands but I don't believe it will make my 100.

My love for this record still grows to this day, and it could arguably make a case for tying for #1 at some point down the line.....

I think it's relatively easy to rank your Top 20; maybe Top 30...

i am curious, among all the lists, who actually ranked all 100, and if so, how'd you go about it?


I went about it in more of a "If I was stranded on an island..." and could only bring 109 cd's with me, these are the ones, I would take.... (as of today at least)...

I don't know... I tried to seriously rank the top 50, but I found myself switching albums after that as well (ex: 76 bumped to 52, or something). I'm not sure what exactly motivated those moves, though.

Something like figuring I had listened to an album placed lower more than an album I had originally placed higher and switching them. Kind of. Or something.

My 1991 self would have loved this list, and we probably would have had the same #1. Haven't listened to Mindcrime in a coon's age, though.

Gotta give you extra props for Helloween, Veruca Salt, and Shout at the Devil.

Considering their life expectancy, propensity for domestic violence and solvent abuse, how long is this exactly?

Yea, I understood what you were implying in your bad joke post, but it obviously wasn't what I meant in my original comment. But thanks for playing.

I honestly thought that's what you meant and was beside myself with laughter that someone would use such a proverb. We don't get (rac)coons 'round here. I understand they're some sort of mischievous squirrel-like dog thing that lives in trees.
