    4. The Smiths 'The World Won't Listen' - technically not a studio album I know, but I'm having it.

    it's a compilation LP, pure and simple. Wonderful but not as good as their other compilation Hatful of Hollow.

    Psychocandy by The Jesus & Mary Chain is the greatest album ever made

    followed closely by Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures, Beach Boys Pet Sounds and The Fall's Hex Enduction Hour
    with The Smiths The Queen Is Dead, Dexys Midnight Runners Don't Stand Me Down and My Bloody Valentine's Isn't Anything bringing up the rear

    I'm glad at least John2 went for some real alternative music, and not the general mainstream. I'm not in the running, but I have to respond with a High Fidelity-style Top 5 of my own...

    1. Mansun - "Six": Quite simply, the greatest album ever written. Most people who disagree have never listened to the album.
    2. Garbage - "Version 2": Ok, this is verging on commercialism, but its just too good to leave out.
    3. Billy Talent - "Billy Talent": Angry punk at its best.
    4. Mew - "A Triumph For Man": First international release from a Danish band that are like a cross between Sigur Ros and Muse.
    5. U.N.K.L.E. - "Psyence Fiction": No explanation should be necessary.

    And even at that, I had to leave out A Perfect Circle, God Is An Astronaut, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Idlewild, Cave In, Biffy Clyro, Interpol, Whipping Boy, etc...

    God, I'm such a music nazi...
