I don't know if this has been done before but maybe a mod could organise a Ultimate album section with everyone posting their top five, this in turn creating say a top 100. It would be interesting to see the results as most popular polls have the same old albums at the top (PET SOUNRAB, SGT.PEPPERS etc) and I don't think it's a true representation.
Anyhow here's mine:
1.PINK FLOYD-ANIMALS...
My god this is going be harder than I thought! Will get back with the other 4!
Mine:
1.PINK FLOYD-ANIMALS
2.PORCUPINE TREE-DEADWING
3.MY BLOODY VALENTINE -ISN'T ANYTHING (I think i'm the only person who prefers this to LOVELESS)
4.JOSE PADILLA-SOUVENIR
5.SLAYER-REIGN IN BLOOD
as others one or two may change, but if I really had to only have five albums these would be it.
NaS- "Illmatic"
Lupe Fiasco- "Food & Liquor"
Mos Def- "Black On Both Sides
Black Star- "Mos Def and Talib Kweli Are Black Star"
Wu-Tang Clan- "Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Charabers"
Sublime-Sublime
Facelift-Alice in Chains
A Crow left of the murder-Incubus
MTV Unplugged in New York-Nirvana
From the Muddy banks of Whiskah-Nirvana
Ten-Pearl Jam
Make yourself-Incubus
I advise y'all if u dont have any of these recorRAB, they are all awesome
Unfortunately you have to count every album and award the points accordingly-it could take a year.
If two seperate posters have a certain album in their top five EG THE DOORS for arguments sake they get points accordingly between one and five, so the doors may have already earned 6 points- a first place and a fifth place!.
Wait, but how would I know who gets what points. Wouldn't it make more sense to give every album 1 point than if two people nominate one (like the doors) give that 2 points for both people?
