This is just a reminder that all finalized lists will need to be PMed to me or I won't be able to count them (far too much work digging through the thread and seperating lists I have from lists I don't).

Also, Alucard, it's impossible for me to score your list unless you put them in order from best to worst.

Thanks guys, and keep them coming.  I'll tentatively shoot for the end of September to have this list finished (depending how many lists I get before then).  For now, September 15 is the due date.

One question: Do jazz/fusion albums count that are on the site (e.g. Mahavishnu Orchestra or Santana)?

This is stupid hard now that most of the corner cases I listen to are actually in RIO/Avant. it is my loss but since I've cut out ze metal and have always ignored indie, hiphop and everything in-between I don't have much of a list - it'd be the work of a dabbler, with a Merzalbum, a jazz album I've accidentally liked, a few bad albums I've come to enjoy since I grew up with them, etc. I just won't bother since it'd be crap data.

If Residents, latter-day Kraftwerk and Slapp Happy are really prog then I am a total purist. ;P

With the sole exception of John Zorn, everything on the site outside of Prog Related/Proto Prog is voided from these lists.

Are they ever going to release the follow-up?</SPAN>

I've only heard Diary and LP2. I might get one of the later albums eventually. And I hope The Fire Theft is making a follow up, the first one was cool.
And Good News is not bad. I believe it very narrowly missed my list.

Good News is pretty good but definitely inferior to TM&A and TLCW

I simply like the songs, atmospheres, melodies, production and flow of Good News better than all of them. I've never really been a Modest Mouse fan, but something about the album really struck me. I learned to like The Moon & Antarctica, but still not as much as Good News.

And, moreitsythanyou, if you like The Fire Theft, and early Sunny Day you'll more than likely enjoy the last two SDRE albums. They are basically a combination of the two sounds. The Fire Theft almost continues the evolution of the band.

I've wanted to buy Aftermath for a while, but I always end up getting something else instead or forgetting about it.  Most of their late '60s stuff in general, but after that... eh

Nah, Sticky Fingers is a great album.  "Can't You Hear Me Knockin" has to be my favorite Stones track.

Nice list, but I'm assuming you mean Daydream Nation and not Teenage Riot.  That happens to me sometimes too. :P

Surprised at how indie these lists are too.  I need to spend some time exploring indie I've not checked out yet, I usually am either extremely impressed or totally apathetic, pagan god bless youtube and last.fm radio!

Am I allowed to post discography discs (as in, containing all recorded material by a band)? Because if not my list will be very, very flawed. A very good alternative would be to allow EPs.
