what do you think the best albums of all time are?

i think "led zeppelin 2", "led zeppelin 4", "dark side of the moon", and "are you expirenced?" are the best.

Neutral Milk Hotel's "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" has been considered by many to be one of the best albums of the last 10 years.

I whole heartedly agree.

Others include:
<ul><li><B>Wauvenfold</b> "3 fold"<li><b>Radiohead</b> "OK Computer"<li><b>The Mars Volta</b> "De-loused in the Comatorium"<li><B>The Smashing Pumpkins</b> "Siamese Dream"</UL>

As with most threads like this, too many to list.

dark side of the moon is awesome. I just wish I had it on a cd.

The Wall was pretty good too-- it sorta like looped and stuff.

ones that bear repeated listenings are Rush of Blood to the Head, by Coldplay, and Sing the Sorrow-- AFI

although I generally prefer the cds i make myself

WRONG.

Oh, and if you're going to put The Doors, at least mention LA Woman before The Doors.

Deep Purple - Machine Head
Genesis - Selling England By The Pound (one of the best prog albums ever)
Gentle Giant - The Power And The Glory
Jethro Tull - A Passion Play (everyone's going to disagree on this one)
King Crimson - In The Court Of The Crimson King (one of the best debut albums ever)
Pink Floyd - DSotM
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
Pink Floyd - Animals
Pink Floyd - The Wall (the best concept album ever)
The Who - Who's Next
Yes - Close To The Edge

Those are my favorites off the top of my head. I'm not going to impose best albums of all time on you guys.

It's gotta be Silverchair's Diorama, for me. Comparing that to their previous cd, it's a huge change. Probably not a welcome one, for some, but I think it's genius. Particularly "Across the Night". Beautiful.

Most albums by The Smashing Pumpkins are pretty damn good as well. I couldn't specify one particular album, though, because they're blending all together in my head...
