Been working on mine. Since it entered the 2000's, it's gotten very difficult to pinpoint ones I really liked lol

91. nirvana - nevermind
92. babes in toyland - fontanelle ... runner up: rem - automatic for the people
93. smashing pumpkins - siamese dream ... runner up: nirvana - in utero

07. tegan and sara - the con
08. amanda palmer - who killed amanda palmer
09. flyleaf - memento mori
2010. the indecent - her screwed up head

i have to think more on the rest of it, more than i thought i would.

When you said movie soundtracks are usable, it got much easier post 2000's for me

I have not cared about albums since the 90's it's hard to even pick something I moderately liked

yeah, there's still albums that i know i really like, from the 2010s. i just can't pick out one for every year, there. yet.

I could do the legwork, but just add me to the Metallica, Pantera, Slayer, Maiden group for my list with pinch of the Crue, Def Lep, Guns, ACDC, Halen and the Jovi and you got it, more or less. And then Avenged for anything post 2000.

Phil Collins can take a slot too. I don't jam Sussudio every day for nothing.

These crack me up

I'm not particularly a big fan of Third Eye Blind, but this has been on repeat for quite some time recently.

Another newer favorite of mine.

Supertramp is so great it just gets better with time
