This thread is a matter of opinion..not about what is generally accepted as the best rock albums ever.....and if you think that your list is delving a little deeper then you're some kind of moron

Hahaha...its certainly more diverse then the "music" you posted.

*edit* Fuck it. It's not worth the time.

i wouldnt consider lucinda williams "rock"

Yeah, its the only one i debated listing, but its certainly the most "rocking" of her albums.

[Whodinihimself]

Hahaha...its certainly more diverse then the "music" you posted. Tool? The Mars Volta? The Offspring? UGH.

Id be more then willing to call out a few more people on their shitty taste. Just try me.

Yeah, its the only one i debated listing, but its certainly the most "rocking" of her albums.

Whats wrong with Tool?...just because a band is well known and mass marketed doesnt void their contribution to "rock"...and as for my list, I just posted most of the albums that take me back to my teenage years..and the ones that fall into that category are usually what I consider to be my favourites.

oh and dont try to come off as a stuffy, eltitist rock-snob...its not like youve made any contribution to the history of rock...and trust me, youre no more in-the-know than anybody else here...its the fucking internet...we can hear everything...so eat a dick pipe down

[Whodinihimself]

this is the purest rock album ever released:

Whats wrong with tool? Wait...it doesnt make your ears bleed?

As far as posting albums that "take you back", it's the same thing i did.

And where did i come off as an elitst (a term which gets thrown around far to frequently) . It's not elitst to listen to better music then you do. You can talk about opinions all day long...

[greentea]

tool is a prety dope band.

ha!..you might listen to the music, but you dont hear it...youre too busy giving it a grade.....and fuck me if I'm wrong but, didnt i see The Traveling Wilbury's on your list??..you might aswell put Velvet Revolver or some other super-ultra-mega group up there too....actually...no...I like the Wilburys..they did good things...i take that back....and I actually like your list too...I just went with what I liked as a teenager...if i was to post a list of albums I favour now it would've been different..

"...are you reelin in the yeeeeeeeeeeears?....storin away the tiiiiiiiiiiiiime?" lol
