  1. essential favorites

  2. exceptional

  3. Atari Teenage Riot: Delete Yourself - may be a favorite after another listen.
  4. Don Caballero: Don Caballero 2
  5. Bardo Pond: Bufo Alvarius, Amen 29:15

  6. good

  7. decent

  8. The Smashing Pumpkins: Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness - a truly iconic album from my youth; the talent is spread over 2 discs leaving the vision and sound diluted, but parts are still special to me.
  9. The Mountain Goats: Sweden

  10. everything else

  11. though some are better than others, order can be considered irrelevant

  13. Oasis: (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? - THE album from my youth. i have “played” this album 1000’s of times, though i did not listen to it that many times because most of the time it was on repeat in the my CD player and it would play whether or not I was in the room or was paying any attention whatsoever. at one point I probablyt considered every song on this album a masterpiece. i grew up, found it one day tatooed with scratches from here to eternity so I decided to buy another copy – trying to spark those good sounds from my youth and…nothing; these guys are imposters, a bad version of the Beatles whom they so desperately want to be but have no idea how to be, except for the their insane popularity especially in the U.K.

recommendations are highly encouraged!!! - no matter how obvious or obscure.

albums listed here or anywhere else are by recording dates, not release dates. if you know the recording date of an album that i have listed incorrectly, please let me know.

any and all discussion is welcome. :^)
