No, this forum doesn't just hate people for the music they like.

These aren't my 4 favorites, but I think I would definitely take these if I had to take 4 albums to go live on an island.

(My very first cd) Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory
GranRAB Corps Malade - midi20
Red Hot Chili Peppers - By the Way

4. Surfer Rosa & Come on Pilgrim - Pixies
3. Either/Or - Elliott Smith
2. Shut Up I Am Dreaming - Sunset Rubdown
1. In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel
No piece of art, or any other influence at all really, has had the same impact on my life, on several levels, that Aeroplane has. There was a point on probably my twentieth or so time listening through the album, about a minute and a half into Two Headed Boy, Pt. 2, where Jeff sings "In my dreams, you're alive and you're crying/As your mouth moves in mine soft and sweet/Rings of flowers 'round your eyes and I love you for the rest of your life" and I felt like I had just been pinned against a wall and punched in the stomach. Like the only thing real in this world is Jeff's adoration for the ghost of this little girl, and everything that I had ever felt or experienced was totally cosmetic in comparison. It's still the only album that has ever brought me to tears.
EDIT: I know Surfer Rosa & Come on Pilgrim is like the direct oRABpring of two seperate EP's, but it's not technically a greatest hits album or anything, so it counts.

'hipster' is more a misguided state of mind I'd say, dress-sense/music taste/general opinion being variable on what is deemed to be non-mainstream and cool at the time. As for 'chav-emo' I would have imagined they were conflicting subcultures lol... BOLLOCKS
Top 4 that I have had spinning regularly for a while and not needed to take a break from yet:
Random Impulse - Full Metal Alchemist
Guided By Voices - Alien Lanes
Final Fantasy VII OST (be kind)
bIG fLAME - Rigour ('83-'86)

thats actually the song that made me buy the album. What you begin to discover is while that song never really looses any luster, other songs tend to get better every listen. Tracks 7 & 8; "Excuse You" and "Vulture Shark Sculpture Park" (respectivly) are some of the best things on the disc.
The latter has one of the best Flute Loops since the Beastie Boys "sure shot" and the assanines are kind of awesome.
With regard to "excuse you," that song sets such a mood that its nearly inmpossible of being disliked.
The songs actually share a rhyme, which I found entertaining because he has them back to back and clearly did so intentnionally, but the line is something like "a very goth towel, a terry cloth cowl, "he said 'I, hairy moth owl.'"
It likely looks stupid, but to hear it in context is nothing short of amazing.

Amon Tobin - Permutation
Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and The Sinner Lady
Dead Can Dance - Into The Labyrinth
Motorhead - No Sleep Til Hammersmith (Yeah live album, cheating, whatever)
Yann Tiersen is now moving up the charts quickly though. Hot Rats also unlucky.

Before I started expanding my music taste, these were the only albums I ever seriously listened to. That was when I was 16ish. It's almost a decade later and I still love these albums like the first day I heard them. Not my favorite albums of all time, but my favorite albums that I can play over and over.
4. Tori Amos -Little Earthquakes
3. Deftones - White Pony
2. Ani Difranco - Not A Pretty Girl

Traveling Wilburys; Vol. 1 & 3
Sex Pistols; Spunk
The Stone Roses; Turns Into Stone
Bob Dylan; The Bootleg Series, Vol. 1-3 (if I can only pick one disc, it'll be disc 3)
And if I'm not allowed to count the Wilburys albums as one (they'll both fit onto a single disc), I'll leave Vol. 3 behind.
