Re: Greatest 100 albums of all time
Fuck that shit.
Appetite For Destruction is the best album ever, and also in the top 5 there should be Led Zeppelin's IV, Black Sabbath - Paranoid, Deep Purple - Made In Japan and Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced.

Re: Greatest 100 albums of all time
Hendrix at 98 and Oasis number 1 ??? For sure.
But it's good to see NME is still spouting shite after all these years.

Re: Greatest 100 albums of all time
Parallel Lines, Blondie at 45, and Led Zeppelin II, Led Zeppelin at 44?????
Fucking bollocks to that. Who writes this shit?
Led Zeppelin II should be 45 with Blondie at 44.
The rest of it looks pretty much spot on to me.

There are many, many records that are more deserving than that. Jive Fucking Bunny and the Bastard Mastermixers for a start, although "Doggystyle" by Snoop would probably have more credence.

I'm afraid you're showing your age or letting the tabloids cloud your judgement. The Libertines were one of the best bands ever. |

hahaha, 26, working for a alternative music magazine and already showing my age...damn. don't get me wrong, they were a good band, they are simply the beneficiary of an NME stoke-fest. NME and Pitchfolk are always good to read for a laugh. |

Re: Greatest 100 albums of all time
I read this in the paper today and whittled it down to a top 72. It is clueless people wo have been asked. I think it is 1000 radio 1 listeners.
Now Definatley Maybe is a quality album, don't get me wrong, but to say it is better than any Led Zep, Floyd, Hendrix is fucking bullshit man
Below are the ones i kicked out:
15. Up The Bracket, The Libertines
20. Is This It, The Strokes
21. Hot Fuss, The Killers
27. Employment, Kaiser Chiefs
30. The Libertines, The Libertines
32. American Idiot, Green Day
33. A Rush Of Blood To The Head, Coldplay
34. Parklife, Blur
38. Franz Ferdinand, Franz Ferdinand
49. X&Y, Coldplay
51. Hopes And Fears, Keane
52. Parachutes, Coldplay
64. Come On Over, Shania Twain ( This epitomises the whoile shambles of a top 100 )
67. Kasabian, Kasabian
82. Up All Night, Razorlight
83. Ray Of Light, Madonna
86. Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, Arctic Monkeys ( The BIGGEST pile of over-hyped shit ever)
91. Final Straw, Snow Patrol
The above SHITE has placed thre following into the silliest positions I have ever seen these albums placed
95. Kid A, Radiohead
97. The Smiths, The Smiths
98. Electric Ladyland, Jimi Hendrix
99. Rage Against The Machine, Rage Against The Machine
100. Hotel California, Eagles
This riled me big time. If you wanna throw new albums lik ethey have doen, How about Pearl jam and Tool's new albums, in fact if the fucking spice girls can get in why not throw Milli " Fucking " Vanilli in.
