    Top 10 in no order except The Beatles will always rate Number 1.

    1) The Beatles: Sgt Peppers
    2) Led Zeppelin: Led Zeppelin 4
    3) Pink Floyd: Dark Side Of The Moon
    4) The Who:
    5) Bee Gees: Spirits Having Flown
    6) Queen:
    7) Abba: Arrival
    8) E.L.O: Discovery
    9) Blondie: Eat To The Beat
    10) Fleetwood Mac: Rumors

    The Who & Queen make the list but there's no particular album that stands out.

    I take it this is a list of your favourites rather than, as mine was, a list of who you consider to be the best?

    You put Nirvana in yours ffs. Probably the most overrated band in the history of rock music.

    Thats what I get for being a fuckwit and not interpreting it as the bands I consider the best, not what my favourite 10 bands are. lol
    My bad.

    Is it not the same thing when talking something as subjective as taste in music?

  14. Julian BJ Taylor

    AFAIC U2 have never made anything that compares to Nevermind or In Utero.

  15. Verigoat S Verigotta

    Don't think so

    I know that most of my top 10 favorite bands are no where near as great or anywhere near the best in comparison to a lot of the ones listed

    I think you'd probably need to think a hell of a lot of yourself if you thought your own 10 favorites were also the 10 greatest/best of all time

    Either that or like Das who only discovered music that wasn't Indian a couple of months ago and then went to search for the top 10 greatest so he can pretend he has good taste in front of his friend

  16. Luffers JRE Luffman

    This is so difficult. I'll put my rough list down gonna include artists as well though...

    The Beatles
    Arcade Fire
    David Bowie
    Jimi Hendrix
    The Velvet Underground
    Neutral Milk Hotel
    Modest Mouse
    Why?
    Blur
    Radiohead

    No particular order. Not sure whether that really is my top 10 though, I'll need more time to contemplate.

  17. Luffers JRE Luffman

    Well I've taken it as my favourite top ten, to name the top 10 bands of all time would be a ridiculously long winded process. What would you judge them on? Their contribution to music? Their longevity? Their influence on future music? The amount of records they sold? Their popularity? The quality of their musicianship? The quality of their live performances?

    There are too many different categories they'd have to tick, I'm not a music expert/critic so I don't know enough about all the different styles of music to name a proper top ten. So I went for my top ten, which is all you can really do.

    Then you forfeit the right to criticise the lists of others, which you've already done.
