The Top 5 Albums Thread!

5. Only five. Therefore

Tom Waits - Mule Variations
Nick Cave - Henry's Dream
Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose
65daysofstatic - The Distant and Mechanised Glow of Eastern European Dance Parties

Largely because those were the first three I saw

Interested to see At The Drive In's Relationship of Command on a few lists that's a tough one to leave off

I'm pretty jealous I wish my teachers were that awesome. We got Andrew Lloyd Webber. I put Mule variations on the list because its quite long really any of his albums would do the trick for me

[CBGB]

As I said before I don't think this is possible but OK, I'm going to see if I can do this... deep breath...

In no particular order:

Richard Hell & the Voidoids - Blank Generation
The Action - Rolled Gold
Funkadelic - Funkadelic
The Only Ones - The Only Ones
Rotary Connection - Hey Love

To be honest, tomorrow it would be five completely different albums - maybe something from the last 30 years, even. But I absolutely love all of those...

Igor Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring

Stravinsky would love fuzz.

He was certainly interested in Luigi Russolo's "noise intoners".
