Mine go like this:
3) Manic Street Preachers - Everything Must Go/ This iS My Truth Tell Me Yours. I can't decide between these two, they're both fantastic.
2) Radiohead - OK Computer. Truly fantastic, the best way I've heard it described is as "One of THOSE albums" and that's so very true. It just IS great.
1) Counting Crows - August and Everything After. My favourite band by a long way. The first listen of Round Here and I fell in love with them. Completely. I love every single song on this album, apart from one which I still like a lot. This is my favourite album ever and I doubt anything will change that.
1. Kyuss - Blues For the Red Sun. Pure deep dirty punk rock slurge. Black Sabbath if they took Peyote. Desert rock's defining moment.
2. Pearl Jam - Yield. 5 guys in a room making music. No hype, no pretense, just songs.
3. MSP - The Holy Bible. They were always gonna lose the plot after releasing this one. That Balaclava moment on TOTP. Nuff said.
OK Computer - Radiohead. They may make rubbish now, but it can't take away from this album.
II - Led Zeppelin. Because it has Moby Dick and Ramblin' and Whole Lotta Love and Hearbreaker
Pure Rock Fury - Clutch. Because Clutch rock and I like this one best.
1. Pavement - Wowee Zowie
2. Radiohead - OK Computer
3. Basement Jaxx - Rooty
> 1. Michael Jackson - Thriller
King of Pop. 'Nuff said.
yeah, but becoming the king of pop can't be that hard... especially when you see the likes of Steps, Hear'Say, S club 7 and all that pap getting big... I mean, Michael Jackson didn't have much competition...
King of Pop. 'Nuff said.
2. Feeder - Polythene
Their best album, and it's got "High" on it.
3. Matchbox 20 - Yourself and Someone Like You

Well, Steps do have deeply meaningful lyrics... they're so deep and meaningful, that they are the only ones who realise they are deep and meaningful. (even the people who actually wrote them didn't know they were deep and meaningful...)
I have nothing against Pennywise, either.
Good. Or I would have to kill you. ;-)
Anyway... other bands which I feel warrant a mention:
Bad Religion- Been around for God knows how long. Awesome band, real passion, real meanings.
Travis Cut- UK pop-punk at its best. Forget Blink, or Sum41, get this.
Greenday- been making some of the best pop-punk ever.
NOFX- Maybe they haven't changed that much, but they write some amazing, funny, serious songs.
Those are some of the bands that are truly great. They rate among the best (in my opinion) bands in the world.
· Radiohead - The Bends
· Radiohead - Kid A
· The Beatles - Revolver
I can't really pick between any of the first four Radiohead albums as each would probably be in my top 3, but currently The Bends and Kid A are the two records which get played the most in my record collection.
Revolver by the Beatles in another one of my favourite albums of all time - and definately one of the best Beatles albums in existence.
Erm...
Can't really place these in order...
The Offspring - Smash
Papa Roach - Infest
Nirvana - Nevermind
I WILL get OK Computer at some point, and from what i've heard that will probably be in my top 3.

I think this would be "better best forgotten"
