No.  This FM was a Canadian band that featured producer (and Invisible Man wannabe) Nash the Slash (who was known to the UK for his production work with Gary Numan, among others)

9. Rockin' the Suburbs - Ben Folds
10. Um... Hmm... I'll just say "Good News for People who Love Bad News" - Modest Mouse.


I don't think these are the best albums of all time, these are just my favorites.

Subject: Re: Top 10 Albums Of All Time

Written By: Apricot on 10/22/06 at 11:23 am

In my personal opinion:

1. Slender Sherbert- Momus
2. Oskar, Tennis Champion- Momus
3. The Lonesome, Crowded West- Modest Mouse
4. The Mollusk- Ween
5. D.o.A: The Third and Final Report- Throbbing Gristle
6. The Downward Spiral- Nine-Inch Nails
7. Self-Titled Debut- Tubeway Army (Gary Numan)
8. Knife Play- Xiu Xiu
9. Morrissey, You Are The Quarry- Morrissey
10. Commencement- Deadsy


If I had to guess what they'd be for the main population, it'd likely be "O.K. Computer", a few Pink Floyd albums, Revolver by the Beatles... and probably a Led Zeppelin one or two.

Rust in Peace - Megadeth
Reign in Blood - Slayer
Powerslave - Iron Maiden
Cowboys From Hell - Pantera

It seems "The Mollusk" is everybody's favorite Ween album, and I really can't see why. I mean... All the songs are good, but they've done better, in my opinion.
