Top 25 Albums of 1996-2006 (x-post/Music Forum)
A few posters got together and decided to make a list of the top 25 albums from 1996-2006. A couple people haven't made their list yet, but so far we have 3: MacDaddy Warsaw, Soul Daddy, and me.

Didn't look at the lists yet.
Without order, I would say: OK Computer Twin Cinema Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Kid A Hail to the Thief Chutes Too Narrow White Blood Cells Elephant Room on Fire Marshall Mathers LP The College Dropout Late Registration Speakerboxxx / The Love Below Scenes From a Memory Lateralus Aenima Transatlanticism In the Aeroplane XO Figure 8 Either/Or I See a Darkness Gimme Fiction The Execution of All Things Keep it Like a Secret OK, there's my final 25. Slim Shady LP was real close. |

Re: Top 25 Albums of 1996-2006 (x-post/Music Forum)
Here is a small preview of what I believe CMI's list will look like.
Radiohead will definitly fill at least 2 slots, with OK Computer prob being #1. His love of Aeorplane makes me unsure if he will put this first or second, but I believe that objectively he puts OK computer 1st. Too close to call. Soft bulletin will most definitly be on the list somewhere, prob high up, but no Pink robot. I know no Death cab will be on the list and I doubt sufjan will make it either. Pure guess for his top 5 5. Soft Bulletin 4. Kid A 3. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot 2. Aeroplane 1. OK Computer |
