TOP 100 ALBUMS TONIGHT; STAY TUNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fatbob]

[315] Faith No More | Angel Dust

Good shit.

[KyleRayner]

im like 99% sure you are just doing random albums until at least your top 50 or so, support evidence:

1:you made a topic saying soundsystem is the best butyou ranked it lower here bubs, i smell something fishy
2: the presence of ministry, dillinger and placebo and isis, those dont seem like they would be anywhere near your top 500, judging from everything else you recoment etc, ministry and isis especially, and dillinger for that matter

just my musiings

and mezzanine and angle dust need to be higher foo

and which weezer-weezer, i assume blue,

[Shiny]

kraftwerk - "trans europe express" is key

[Nate]

all you did was copy and paste the rolling stone article and then changed it around. Nice try

[Alexnova]

all you did was copy and paste the rolling stone article and then changed it around. Nice try
