I had the same reaction as everyone else when I first saw the list. But ignoring the fact that most of us know most of these albums quite well, there really are a lot of "amazing albums" here! I raised my eyebrows too at some of these choices, but it's a daily newspaper so after a little ...

I've like heard of a lot of these albums.

I think it was a very beautiful-looking movie. Cinematography, camera work, framing, etc. etc. all very top quality. Since I am not totally a fan of the original, I cannot in my right mind criticize "2049" anymore beyond that. Without spoilers, does anyone else think one of the female cha...

Yep me too. Really good stuff here.

Saw this yesterday and it will definitely take me multiple viewings to really appreciate this like the first movie if I do appreciate it at all. There are some really good things about this like the cinematography, the score for the most part although some of it is rehashed, Gosling was good. Leto n...

Of course there are good names among those indicted, but R&b is shamelessly left out. Where's Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston???? :( Yeah I was wondering about Janet because she was a nominee last year and not this year. Very strange. A little surprised about Mariah and Whitney ...

Damn, looks like we're in line for nearly all of REM's catalog. Had 3 R.E.M. albums so far. How much more are you expecting? Looks like there are three more to go. I don't really understand vv's comment, unless it's meant as a complaint that R.E.M. are going to wind up with a fairly large number of...

Most happy for Tears for Fears. Well deserved.

A little but it doesn't bother me. As I said before I look at this as a fan's poll so others on here probably don't see it the way we expect it to go and I'm fine with that.

Brings back memories. I know that much.

I honestly have never heard any of his music. I've seen his name or reviews of his albums on various websites but like Nick thought he was an old singer that some how resurfaced and had a resurgence. I will definitely give him a listen though.

Was going to respond to that didn't want to continue going back and forth but you said it best Nassim. Misogyny and braggadocio have been in hip hop since pretty much the beginning. It's just a lot more vulgar and frequent pretty much each decade. Well, maybe my phrasing was misleading but I think ...

I'm with you. These last two eliminates a huge chunk of the rap roster... While I do have a problem with Misogyny, ego and boasting can be fun. It's not like you could find any band/rapper who didn't do it anyway : Run DMC ? Because the rhymes I say, sharp as a nail Witty as can be and not for sale...

#398. Peter Gabriel | So (1986) Rank in 2014: #295 AM 3000 Rank: #230 What the hell? How did Peter Gabriel lose 100 spots during the "pop takeover" of the list?? Probably some 2015-17 releases and a different group of people voting pushed it down. It's still a great album and still in the...

Hmm, if Baduizm is that high, is it worth hoping the New Amerykah albums (Which I consider superior) are higher? Or have they already showed up and I missed it? I hope not because New Amerykah isn't superior. It's a good album but doesn't touch Baduizm. I like Baduizm, but IMO, New Amerykah is a lo...

I have to agree with you, there's no way The Low End Theory will get more participation than The Bends. I don't agree. People especially on here love ATCQ and love that album. Even so, Radiohead is one of the five most popular artists on this forum. My point is people will respond to ATCQ's The Low...

What do you mean by can't relate? Can't connect to those "new" artists as much as I used to with Ice Cube/Nas/ATCQ and even Eminem. Don't get me wrong, I am a white, middle class dude so there is so much "relating" I can do to hip hop artists. Age probably plays a part in it, bu...

GREAT batch! Delighted to see blink-182 here. blink-182, that's a another band that I chose to ignore. I'll revisit them like Linkin Park.

I think the thing that separates them for me is that Limp Bizkit and Papa Roach both represent this bullshit violent machismo. Linkin Park instead tackle the subject of depression and angst, I think in a lot healthier of a way. I think the moods between these bands is apparent in their sound (I don...

bootsy

I guess I need to listen to Linkin Park. I really have never given them much thought because they seemed to be in that Limp Bizkit, korn, and Papa Roach type sound which I wasn't a fan of but maybe they are different. They seem to have a better fan following than those bands.

Ok, even as a JT fan, that's a surprisingly high finish for The 20/20 Experience. Beat out a LOT of really good albums. At the risk of prolonging the discussion (not to mention coming off as a snob), it's irrefutable that certain polls are seriously skewing these results. Also, Meteora at #604? It ...
