Well, even if we don't, I'm going to try to get the ball rolling anyways... lHere's some rules, to start: Cut-off date for each poster's personal Top 10 is 6th July Points system - 10 points to 1st place, 9 points to 2nd, etc, down to 1 point for 10th. No compilation or "best of" albums (Live albums are valid, however) And I can't think of any more off the top of my head.... So, here goes, to start us off! 1 - Sound of Silver - LCD Soundsystem 2 - Remain in Light - Talking Heads 3 - Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots - The Flaming Lips 4 - The Blue Album - Weezer 5 - Kick Up The Fires, Let The Flames Break Loose - The Cooper Temple Clause 6 - London Calling - The Clash 7 - The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses 8 - Natural History - I Am Kloot 9 - Automatic for the People - REM 10 - The Moon & Antarctica - Modest Mouse Jesus, that was actually much harder than I thought it would be... The top 5 were almost impossible to rank one above the other, and there were about another 9 albums that could have occupied the rest of the spaces... and I'm still not sure I've made the right choice... oh well, c'est la vie... hope other people actually join in now, else I'm gonna have just wasted half an hour of my time.... We've got everything Down to a science, so I guess we know everything? Pinkun Poster's Top 10 Albums of All Time... Vote Here!! http://www.pinkun.com/cs/forums/1257396/ShowPost.aspx    Report

They are not listed in order of preference. A couple of corrections. I mispelt Led Zeppelin - I always have had difficulty with the correct placement of double letters in words, and I should have typed Workingman's Dead instead of what I did. Also the V in van in the great German composer's name should be lower case. There, I think that's enough corrections for one day. I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.    Report

Fair enough, i will change the Charlatans album as you appreciate the choice of Unkle.  Am off to London in July to see them at Somerset House on the Strand - should be a good night!  Never get out of the boat unless you are going to go all the way.    Report
