These are the top 20, I didn't want to copy the whole list and make this entry too long. I used to read RS all the time years ago, it's probably been 4 years since I looked at it until today. This list is written by more than one person; which may explain Guns n Roses and No Age being on the same list. Steve Malkmus is still making records? AC/DC?

I thought most you guy shated that Metallica joint? And Chinese Democracy?! What the fuck? Although Black Keys "Attack & Release" has become top 10 of all time material for me...
"Coldplay: Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends"
this has to be the most terriblest album title of all time.... its like spinal tap for MOR alterna-whiny rock or something. "shark sandwich" wouldve been better
I really liked the first Cold Play album, but now they are really really awful. I saw the Black Keys recently here in NYC and they tore the roof off the place, incredible.
can somebody explain Lil Wayne to me? do i just not get it??
there was a pretty good documentary on VH1 Classic recently that traced newish british pop music from the Smiths through to the Stone Roses... into the classic 90s brit pop stuff (Blur, Oasis)... and then on to the current batch of Coldplay clones. Sort of a devolution here in the 00s; hopefully those limeys can pick it up again
I would love some of that 90's "Madchester" shit: Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets, etc... Anybody got that digitally?
Ator (do we have to use our top secret blog code names on here), you down to trade music? Or do you not really do MP3's?
Delayed response here, but Im always down for trading some audio files, even though I dont have THAT huge of a collection of MP3s at the moment.....
But anyways, what do you guys use to do MP3 swaps? Do you just zip them up and send them via email, or is there a particular website that works well for this?
