I don't think I have anywhere near 161 albums! Ouch In my defense, I'm still in school so I don't have a job.

I'm a massive Manic Street Preachers fan, Everything Must Go would be my favourite, but The Holy Bible atmospherically is better, lyrically their also the best.
 
And Coheed's third album was a real life changer for me, it will always be something special to me.
 
And yea I have all The Smith's albums, and I do like Meat Is Murder, I need to give it another listen cause it dragged on a bit for me at times, but I think I'll need to get into it more, the same with Strangeways


I agree, C&C's third is a masterpiece.  I also loved the album when I first heard it, and it still holds up extremely well years later.  I haven't heard any other Smiths album besides "Meat Is Murder," so I'll check out some of their other records.
