Blame @Yesiamaduck. He made me do it.
And thank @Funkhouser for the gargantuan effort in compiling.
One album a day is the only way this is going to work then. Feel free to listen along.
Reading through the list I realised I’d probably heard around 50-60% and found something to like in most of them.
Join me and become the embodiment of this message board… begins tomorrow and runs until we have listened to all 391 fucking records, or I get bored and it dies.
Gonna drop this here so I can find it easily.
And the most up to date list (new and improved with scores!) is right here…
Also… remember the albums on this list are here because they mean something to someone in the community. Maybe even something profound. Try not to be a dick if you hear something you don’t like
I am so sorry to anyone who attempts this. If you’re going through all the 1 pointers in the order on the list then you will run into a section which contains a consecutive 8hrs 55mins and 4 seconds of my (last minute panic) choices. No one here deserves that fate.
It’s not too late to delete this thread and pretend it never happened.
Fittingly for this site, we open with Radiohead. A bit of a surprise to see this so low - was under the impression it would be bothering the top 10. I agree though, OKC and Kid A are much more interesting.
Almost don’t need to listen to this, as I know it so well I can play it front to back in my head without prompting… will listen later on though because although it has had some of the more interesting edges sanded off, it’s still very very lovely in a lot of the right places.
