end of that

contribute to any you like or whatever

Well, they got a few right

Like Pink Floyd's - Dark Side of the Moon.

Although there-were many times my draw dropped and went "WTF!"

Led Zeppelin should have been higher And Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band should have been #1. And in all honesty (although I love them) Oasis shouldn't have been as high.

The Clash should have been higher as well, phenominal band.

where is RATM?? one of the best albums ever...

Oh yeh.

That album is better than the likes of Appetite For Destruction

I died when Queen weren't first!!!!! ='(

I am happy that The Beatles and Pink Floyd got high up the scale.
But damn me... the Strokes, Pixies, Jeff Buckley, The Who and Beck.. oh my god.. they were nowhere to be seen.

Praise the lord that stereophonics weren't there. HA! And Green Day... HA!!
Bloody power chords.

Yea, I was wondering where the who got to.

And no mention of Led Zeppelin - II

Which imo, owned, lots.

i still think that Oasis - WTSMG shouldnt have been in the top 20

I like Nirvana but he couldnt sing for shit :\

[offended]

Why?

[/offended]

his voice suited the grunge style

it was PERFECT for songs like You Know You're Right, Smells like Teen Spirit, and Rape Me (sorry... you know what song i mean lol)

but, still, in the end you cant ever fully agree with these top 10s 20s or 100s cos it, in the end, is simply another person's opinion

also, they only concentrate on a certain style of music

ie-where is Volume 3, by SK??
they wont consider that cos its not in teh mainstream of modern music, or in their eyes it isnt

how about The Offspring -Smash
are they forgetting that went quadruple platinum in 1 month?
thats 4,000,000 copies sold in less than 4 weeks??

that must have been quite a good album then

its never accurate, these surveys

[/offended]

i used too be a crazed nirvana fan, i have all the books, nearly all the bootlegs (outcesticides).

well whatever gail said, cos he types too much : P

yeah kurt had yon kickarse voice and u knows it!

who the fook are the libertines anyway?

MrBlack wrote:who the fook are the libertines anyway?

a relatively small band with the same style as the Strokes or Kings of Leon

i think the libertines are the ones with the junkie of a singer who spends most of his time in jail or rehab

no one spesch then...

Abba owns you so much.

Meh, shitty opinions.

Plus I would deem it literally impossible to compile a "top 100" album chart due to the huge amount of people in this world who have such varied opinions.

just get John Peel to do it!

Bless his little cotton socks
