Welcome to my thread. I know most of you don’t know or care who I am, but this looked like a lot of fun, and I want to better establish myself in this community, so here I am. As per rab tradition, I’ll be listing 100 albums by 100 different artists.
Disclaimer: I’m not an indie kid. I don’t claim to have ultra-obscure tastes; I’m not going to list obscure artists just to show my musical diversity. This will be an honest list. There will be classic rock. If you want a list of artists you’ve never heard before, you’ll probably need to look elsewhere.
I’ll probably update this thread every other day.
100. Neutral Milk Hotel – In the Aeroplane Over the Sea (1998)
I must say, I expected the insane amount of hype given to this album to spoil my enjoyment of it, but surprisingly enough, I found that I really liked it. The music has a sort of strange, almost surreal quality to it, and it conjures up some wild imagery in my mind. Though Magnum’s voice took some getting used to, it really grew on me by the second listen.
Standout tracks – The King of Carrot Flowers Part 1, Holland 1945, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea
99. Incubus – S.C.I.E.N.C.E. (1997)
I love how spastic this album is. It’s in your face, it hits you hard, and its borabastic guitar and vocals really come alive. There’s definitely a funk and hip-hop influence here, kind of like a heavier version of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I don’t like this as much as I used to, but it still deserves a mention.
Standout tracks – Redefine, A Certain Shade of Green, Favorite Things
98. Mastodon – Blood Mountain (2006)
I’m not a huge metal fan, to be honest. What little metal I do listen to is usually to humor my boyfriend, who is a huge metalhead. That being said, this album really stood out to me. It’s pretty weird music compared to a lot of the metal I’ve heard, and a lot of the tracks feel almost trippy, for metal anyway. It’s hard for me to describe it as I’m not an expert on this sort of stuff.
Standout tracks – Colony of Birchmen, Sleeping Giant, The Wolf Is Loose
97. Weather Report – Heavy Weather (1977)
I don’t see this band talked about much, but they’re one of my favorite jazz acts. I’m a big fan of jazz fusion, so this album is a real treat. The instruments all stand out, particularly the keyboarRAB and bass (courtesy of the late, great Jaco Pastorius). It really grabs you and makes you want to dance along. It's not all upbeat either, "A Remark You Made" is one of my favorite songs to chill to.
Standout tracks – A Remark You Made, Birdland, Palladium
