ever ever ever?
only 3? it's a bit silly. There are twenty that i really couldn't seperate in terms of quality. The first three I thought of as genius albums were

Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland
Patrick Wolf - Lycanthropy
Bjork - Vespertine

But it's just impossible to say only three. Even though I just did, I already disagree with myself.

Re: Top Three Albums Ever

Yeah, although its probably down to the fact that it was the first sonic youth album i got.

Also unlike say for instance evol, which i absolutely love as well, it's never a slog to listen to it. Its a record that i can listen to whenever, whereas evol, daydream etc i have to be in the right mood for.

Re: Top Three Albums Ever

1. Explosions In The Sky - Those Who Tell The Truth Shall Die...
2. GY!BE - FAO (however the fuck you type it)
3. This one's tricky...it would probably come down to a toss up between TOTBL by Interpol, Feathers by Dead Meadow and Salvation by Cult Of Luna.

Erm.... 1. Stone Roses - Stone Roses (I know, I know, what can I say I'm a sucka for nostalgia)
2. Interpol - TOTBL
3. The Radio Dept. - Lesser Matters

Fuck, I can't do it, i'm still trying to shoehorn Galaxie 500 - On Fire, Underworld - Dubnobass, Yo La Tengo and Ride into there somewhere. Bum.
