    Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not:

    Not a bad song on the whole album imo.

    The Magic Numbers - The Magic Numbers:

    Not a chance this one will win it, but this is a bloody good album.

    Kings of Leon - Because of The Times:

    Sick of them now, but I played and played this when it first came out. The intro to Knocked Up...... What a start to a song AND what a start to an album.

    i went for-

    Primal Scream - XTRMNTR

    Fugazi - The Argument

    Fight Like Apes- FLA & the mystery of the golden medallion.

    Dont think any of these will trouble the top 10 but they are the 3 i've listened to the most and that have changed my perspective on music the most.

    Cheers,
    Marky

    Instead of driving myself insane trying to pick what I considered the 'best' three albums I went with the three that personally influenced me the most over the decade.

    Muse - Origin of Symmetry
    Explosions in the Sky - The Earth is not a Cold Dead Place
    The Darkness - Permission to Land

    Reel Big Fish- Our Live Album is Better than Your Live Album

    Check this out (because I know you've never heard of it)

    Muse- Black Holes and Revelations

    I couldn't decide which Muse album to go with, Black Holes won the coin throw


    Streetlight Manifesto- Somewhere in the Between

    Again, check this out!

    Picking those was one of the most difficult decisions of my entire life :pac::pac:
