Post your favourite 20 albums and I'll rate your musical taste out of 10

Kold · 15-01-2010 4:33pm #1

Being a musical snob isn't easy. Sometimes I wish I could put my impeccable taste to the back of my mind and just enjoy the bad music but alas that is not the case.

Music is subjective? To an extent. However, I spend all my time listening to music and now wish to give back to the community by letting you people know where you are in terms of taste. So don't be shy, list your favourite albums and I shall give you a rating. You're welcome.

When are you going to name yours ?

Kold · 15-01-2010 5:12pm

Also, when listing your favourite albums, who actually wants to pare it down to 10!? Minus .3 from both your scores.

Guns & Roses was a huge penalty.

I think it was just the second cheeky girl one that did it for you, the first is a master piece.

Point Taken.

Pighead · 15-01-2010 5:53pm

Spiritualized: Ladies and Gentlemen we Are Floating in Space.
Suede: Dog Man Star
Belly: Star
Cerys Matthews Never Said Goodbye
The Pale: Here's One We Made Earlier
Justin Timberlake: FutureLoveSexSounds :cool:
Super Furry Animals: Fuzzy logic
Radiohead: OK Computer
The Beta Band: The three ep's
Belle And Sebastian: Tigermilk
Muse: Absolution

Pony Club: Family Business
Shed Seven: A Maximum High

Mercury Rev: All Is Dream
The Divine Comedy: Casanova
The Libertines: The Libertines

Cracking list Pighead. Must be at least an 8.

Yeah, yeah yeah. It's a safe list but fcuk you to all the haters out there. Nothing wrong with staying safe kids. It's the risk takers that end up dead in a pool of their own self indulgent snobby vomit when they're 27 years of age.

If safe means staying on this wonderful planet for nigh on 80 years then you can call Pighead safe until the cows come home.:cool:

lordgoat · 15-01-2010 5:55pm

What an amazing thread. Made me laugh out loud (or lol as internetters call it)

I really hope Karl posts his top 20. Pighead's would be fun too.

I'll throw mine into the mix at some stage over the weekend. Also what's your scoring scheme or does the almightly Kold brain just 'know' the score on looking at the lists?

Post your favourite 20 albums and I'll rate your musical taste out of 10
