Just so you know, some of you made errors such as repeating a number/skipping a number or repeating an album. In cases like that I'll just keep going in the order listed and just skip over any repeats of an album and take the higher as where it's supposed to be.
Great lists so far guys!

Sorry, the other contest (which also uses the word "Ultimate" to add confusion Wink) pushed my lil' thread in to the depths of obscurity.
So then...bump

Hi Moreits,

I updated my list I posted on December, 21st.
What shall I do with this update? Shall I edit the original post (that will be an awful lot of work because I did add almost 100 new albums) or shall I make a new post of the latest version of my list?
I'm running still,
I shall until,
one day I hope that I'll arrive

You can edit your original list and just let him know. If it's easier, you can always just post a new one and make sure you make it clear to disregard the original.

And just to let you guys know, there is now a week left until the deadline. He means everyone.

Excellent thread, I can't wait to see the final list. The most interesting part for me is seeing which non-prog albums make people's lists.

I think this experiment could lead to a much more accurate ranking of albums than PA's rating-based top 100 list. I think too many people throw around 5-star ratings on this site. Almost every album you look at, the majority of the votes are "5- A masterpiece of progressive music". Not every single album can be a masterpiece! The system in this thread should make it easier to differentiate scores between the great albums and give a good idea of what the members really think are the "best of the best".

Of course, for it to reflect the members opinions accurately, we need to have a large number of people submitting lists!


Anyway, after much deliberation, here are my Top 50 Albums...

01: Kayo Dot - Choirs of the Eye
02: Yes - Close to the Edge
03: Tool - Aenima
04: Sigur Ros - Agaetis Byrjun
05: Between the Buried and Me - Colors
06: Magma - Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh
07: Symphony X - V: The New Mythology Suite
08: Jaga Jazzist - What We Must
09: Yes - Relayer
10: Godspeed You Black Emperor! - Slow Riot For New Zero Kanada
11: Anglagard - Epilog
12: Anglagard - Hybris
13: Joanna Newsom - Ys
14: Dilute - Grape Blueprints Pour Spinach Olive Grape
15: Tool - Lateralis
16: Magma - K.A.
17: Symphony X - The Odyssey
18: Between the Buried and Me - Alaska
19: Sigur Ros - ()
20: Megadeth - Rust in Peace
21: Faith No More - The Real Thing
22: Akron/Family - Akron/Family
23: Radiohead - Hail to the Thief
24: Kayo Dot - Dowsing Anenome With Copper Tongue
25: Rush - Hemispheres (26)
26: Metallica - ...And Justice for All (25)
27: Pearl Jam - Vs.
28: Radiohead - OK Computer
29: Dream Theater - Metropolis Pt. 2
30: Do Make Say Think - Winter Hymn, Country Hymn, Secret Hymn
31: The Dillinger Escape Plan - Miss Machine
32: Silencio - Dead Kings
33: Mr. Bungle - California
34: Sleepytime Gorilla Museum - In Glorious Times
35: Opeth - Ghost Reveries
36: Blind Guardian - Nightfall in Middle-Earth
37: Blind Guardian - A Night at the Opera
38: Sufjan Stevens - Illinois
39. Sufjan Stevens - Greetings From Michigan (unranked)
40: Unexpect - In a Flesh Aquarium (39)
41: The Mars Volta - De-loused in the Comatorium (40)
42: Rush - Moving Pictures (41)
43: Rush - Permanent Waves (42)
44: Hella - Hold Your Horse Is (43)
45: Jaga Jazzist - A Livingroom Hush (44)
46: Metallica - Master of Puppets (45)
47: Return to Forever - Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy (46)
48: King Crimson - Red (unranked)
49: Radiohead - Kid A (48)
50: Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Yanqui U.X.O. (unranked)

Dropped off: Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy (47), Godspeed You Black Emperor! - Lift Yr Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven (49), Bohren & Der Club of Gore - Sunset Mission (50)


I was tempted to follow a few other people's leads and include stuff like Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" and Holst's "The Planets", because I think those are some of the all-time greatest musical works. But in the end, those are pieces of music, not "albums", and I do think there is a huge difference, so much so that you can't really compare the two.

Good point about the classical pieces.
If you list a specific recorded performance and the performers ie (SF Symphony Orchestra) then you have listed an album. ...nag nag nag...

This is a good standard, but I won't be picky if you say "The Planets" or "symphony" or whatever you wish.

Absolutely right, Mr. Shakes.
 
Only one week left so get those votes in! If you need more time, just tell me and an extension could be in order. Great lists this weekend!

Hi Moreitsy,

Here’s my update on the list I posted on December 2007, 21st (so that list can be considered obsolete). I decided to post a complete new list because I did add almost 100 new albums.

It was both great fun and frustating making the list. Great fun because it made me listen to albums I hadn’t heard for ages. Frustrating because I’ve still got dozens and dozens of albums I would like to include in the list (but I haven’t enough time to give them a proper listen/rating right now). So bands I’ve only just discovered recently (like Nektar and Bacamarte) have to wait for a next time.

Good luck with compiling all the lists. I’m really looking forward to your compilation of the top albums of the site’s members!

Hey moreits, My original 50 are the same, but I have added 51-Dead Kennedys-Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegtables and 52-Hendrix-Axis Bold as Love and 53-Metallica-Kill em All
It is interesting watching this develope, looks like Thick as a Brick may take the big prize. Also Soft Machine 3 is going to be very high as well as Quiet Sun and Zappa's One Size Fits All.
Looks like Metallica may top the non-PA bands.
