    Posted: October 27 2007 at 18:27
This has been done before many times...but since the boards changed I'll start a new one.

1. Yes - Close to The Edge
2. Dream Theater - Images and Words
3. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
4. Porcupine Tree - Deadwing
5. Pain of Salvation - The Perfect Element
6. Pain of Salvation - Remedy Lane
7. Unexpect - In A Flesh Aquarium
8. Porcupine Tree - Lightbulb Sun
9. Death - Symbolic
10. Opeth - Blackwater Park

Besides the Top 6, this list can change very, very often. A top 50 is really the only way to show my taste. Way to lazy though.

The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway - Genesis (normally, I wouldn't put this one at the top because I thought it was too ambitious, but I'm kinda wearing Selling England by the Pound out so I think right now I favor this one...but I'm wearing this one out as well. =/)
The Yes Album - Yes
Selling England by the Pound - Genesis
Nursery Cryme - Genesis
Trespass - Genesis (I got this one in the mail today on vinyl, and it's great!)
Relayer - Yes
The Wall - Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
A Song for All Seasons - Renaissance
One - Neal Morse


I need to broaden my selection a little. =/

La Maquina de Hacer Pajaros- Peliculas
Crucis- Crucis

^Wow, or something. I didn't expect to see an MCR fan here! It's a brave move to include an MCR album in a list like this on this website. I quite like the song Dead! from that album by the way. Not much more though...

-

I currently feel like listing these:

Calvary - Outnumbered is Outflanked
Helmet - Meantime
Popsicle - Popsicle
The Chameleons - Script of the Bridge
Tool - Ænima
Ordination of Aaron - Completed Works
Kayo Dot - Choirs of the Eye
My Bloody Valentine - Ecstasy and Wine
Dinosaur Jr. - Bug
Three - Dark Days Coming

This list will change any minute. The Three in the list is not the New Prog band, but an old Post-Hardcore band who released a very good album in 1987.
