Top 50 Albums Grids

Post by TheRoboteer »

On another forum I'm on there was a thread where people would create these grids of their top 50 albums of all time using this website: http://top50.topsters.de/

I'd be interested to see what everyone on here listens to (Though I feel that I'll probably be seeing a certain Scottish band near the top of everyone's lists :D) and rates highly. Apologies in advance if this has been done before or is against the rules or in the wrong section. I searched this topic and couldn't find anything along these lines

Here's my top 50 as of this year. I elected to include the old tunes tapes but omit the EPs:

Some albums should probably be a bit higher on here (I'd probably put Geogaddi around where Hunky Dory is in hindsight) and I also realised that I ommitted Old Tunes Volume 2 entirely, which would be solidly in the second-tier classics section, but I think it's a pretty decent look into my taste in music. Look forward to seeing what you guys listen to.
"It would be wise to remember that the same people who would stop you from listening to Boards of Canada may be back next year to complain about a book, or even a TV program. If you can be told what you can see or read, then it follows that you can be told what to say or think. "

These things are always way too hard for me. I always forget shitloads, then I hate my list, and delete it. So I'm not gonna bother to fill it in.

Would be cool to see other peoples lists though :)

Can't make one because I haven't made 50 albums yet.

I wonder how many others would contain mostly the same stuff in a different order on twoism.

Yeesh! That top 4 category makes this way harder! I will give this a shot in a couple days.

well this was a fun way to spend half an hour, though this website is buggy af.

The take-away here for me is that half of the 50 are from the 90s, but only 9 are from post-2000. So either I was more impressionable when I was younger, or music has just gotten worse?
