+8
Endtroducing was my #7. An ageless piece of musical experimentation that (along with J Dilla's Donuts, which I also voted for) showed how much art can be wrought from a method as easily-dismissed as sampling. It goes from contemplative and chilled to loud and bombastic to creepy and minimalist at the drop of multiple hats and yet it all flows together perfectly. Also gotta love how it samples both Twin Peaks and John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness.
Appetite for Destruction is...not very good. I still feel compelled to give it a listen every once in a long while, but it definitely feels like there are better places to get a fix of bone-headed hard rock (though there are also far worse, of course - I'll take this over just about anything by Motley Crüe).
Art Angels was my #35. It's an excellent piece of experimental dream pop that effortlessly bounces around between all sorts of vibes and moods (one example being the sequence of the upbeat melancholy of "California" to the urgent howl of "Scream" to the relentless catharsis of "Flesh Without Blood") and everything from Grimes' bizarre vocal range to the considerable variety of each individual track certainly make this a standout, especially considering how its generally pleasant and summery vibe contrasts quite heavily with most of the other albums on my list.
Wasting Light is one of the more surprising entries so far. While I was half-expecting the Foo Fighters to show up in some capacity, this wasn't the one I expected (though in retrospect it makes sense, I guess). I guess it's because most of their albums blur together for me (this one included) that I was surprised anyone felt strongly enough about it to get it on the list. I guess this means that we can probably expect The Colour and the Shape at some point.
Mezzanine is another all-around great album that I simply didn't vote for.
