Mr. Hakujin

Recommended Posts

For all you lazy mo'fos out there, here's some reference material:

 

Billboard's Top Selling 200 Albums of the Decade

 

Rolling Stone's Top 100 Albums of the Decade

 

Kirk Hammett's Top 25 Albums

 

Tom Morello's Top 25 Albums

 

Top Selling Albums By Year: 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 Find the rest of the decade your damn self! :D

 

So list your top 25 albums of the last decade. No cheating! Rank in order of importance from 1-25. No "honorable mentions" or going over the number 25 either!

Your smug lack of creativity and inability for a deeper personal introspection as it relates to music is what is ridiculous. I respect your opinion on music too much to let you get away w/ that cop-out. Go back and do it proper. :mad:

 

Here's mine (done proper):

 

25.) White Stripes – Elephant

24.) Kanye West - Graduation

23.) Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere

22.) Lady Gaga - The Fame

21.) Tenacious D - Tenacious D

20.) Black Eyed Peas - Elephunk

19.) Matisyahu - Live At Stubbs

18.) Green Day - American Idiot

17.) A Perfect Circle – Mer De Noms

16.) Audioslave - Audioslave

15.) M.I.A. - Arular

14.) Linkin Park - Meteora

13.) Bruce Springsteen - The Rising

12.) Norah Jones - Come Away With Me

11.) Flogging Molly - Swagger

10.) Jay-Z & Linkin Park- Collision Course

09.) Samurai Champloo - Departure [OST]

08.) Johnny Cash - Unearthed

07.) Regina Spektor - Begin To Hope

06.) Tool - Lateralus

05.) Rage Against The Machine - Renegades

04.) Yann Tiersen - Amelie [OST]

03.) Aimee Winehouse - Back to Black

01.) Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies

I honestly couldn't even begin to quantify which one is important to me as its all depending on my mood and such and it would change tomorrow. But as far as a block 25 of albums go, that would be it.

:mad: I suppose I can let you slide. But for a make-up assignment you have to write a brief description (one to two sentences) for each album about why you chose it to be on your list. I want it on my desk posted by tomorrow morning. :blink:

Most of the music in this decade sucked though. Minus Bjork and maybe muse, but from what I'm looking at with those links, Nsync, Britney, Eminem, Usher...really? Fifty would probably be up there though, most def.

 

Could a revision to the top 25 of all time or something be done?

I agree, we should do a top 25 albums of all time. I can only think of a handful that would be worthy enough to be on my list from this decade.

NO! The whole point of doing a "of the decade" list is because the decade is coming to a close. I see absolutely no reason why one of you can't start an "of all time" thread.

 

 

 

As far as putting them in order, I'm with DoJ. It's impossible and I won't be jumping through any hoops for you as punishment, Haku.

 

So, in NO ORDER:

1. Aphex Twin - Drukqs

 

2. Samael - Reign of Light (Fuck you Mort, I liked it... :welcome: )

 

3. Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth

 

4. Del - Deltron 3030

 

5. Saul - Self Titled

 

6. Hannah Fury - The Thing That Feels (C'mon people, it's a MAN-THING REFERENCE! How cool is that?!?)

 

7. Sage Francis - A Healthy Distrust

 

8. Clint Mansell - Requiem For A Dream OST

 

9. Eminem - The Eminem Show

 

10. Sleepy Time Gorilla Museum - Of Natural History

 

11. The Lonely Island - Incredibad

 

12. Rasputina - Cabin Fever

 

13. MC Chris - Knowing Is Half the Hassle

 

14. Asphyxia - Self Titled

 

15. Tool - Lateralus

 

16. System of a Down - Toxicity

 

17. Dethklok - Dethalbum

 

18. Outkast - Stankonia

 

19. M83 - Before the Dawn Heals Us

 

20. Polyphonic Spree- Together We're Heavy

 

21. Afroman - Because I Got High

 

22. Marilyn Manson - Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death)

 

23. EL-P - Fantastic Damage

 

24. White Stripes - White Blood Cells

 

25. Saul Williams - Amythyst Rockstar

 

That's just off the top of the noggin'. I have a feeling I may have forgotten something epic. May revise when it's not so late.

Not impossible, just difficult, ya fuckin' crybaby. I swear, buncha ninnies afraid of a little self-examination...

OK, Lonley Planet over Tenacious D? White Blood Cells Over ELephant? Afroman over almost anything else? Forget what I wrote earlier; you're obviously coming from a very sad, dark place and don't need to put yourself through the torture of any deeper self analysis. Good luck with all that.

Don't you dare yell at me! Unlike everyone else here I know where you sleep. And I can make your life pretty miserable if I want to. So with that being said, you need to rethink your tone and rethink your words when dealing with me.Love you!

I'm not afraid of self examination, I'd just find it impossible to accurately compile them in order that'd be relevant to more than a day or two of my mood.

 

And if you're going to take a pop at peoples music, the flogging molly being your number 1? Lady Gaga being in there at all?

 

Stones in glass houses there Mr. Hakujin?

i can see you wanting to pitch in w/ logan as he's got domestic issues to contend w/, but you're not really the one to do it, mr. "i require mood stabilizers to arrange albums in order of importance."
