50 Of Unperson's Favorite Albums

Make it stop

Nah, I don't see Zero Boys on the list

Cyborg is so great, I voted for that because nobody else probably will

I like this because it's extremely unperson, a little surprised by the Prince and Tricky. Also didn't know that 'Sister' is apparently the ILM consensus Sonic Youth pick.

Double Nickels

Yessongs was the one that surprised me.

Vote Yes!!

Between Miles and Minutemen, going with Miles

tons of contenders but any poll with Space Ritual on it is going to be Space Ritual.

Slayer! But could have gone Miles, Klaus or Herbie.

lotta sextant love on ilx!

herbie hancock over brötzmann, miles, and hawkwind

oh wait shit fun house is on here too. hmmmm

Amazing list, unfamiliar with half of these!

Check out Diabolical Conquest, especially the last track — one of the longest death metal songs ever (almost 17 minutes)!

I considered putting Edge of Sanity's Crimson on mine even though I haven't listened to it for years...would that be considered a 40 minute death metal song?

Slayer but Bad Brains was a very close second

yes I strongly considered the Bad Brains S/T

Minuteman by process of elimination (we have no overlap in taste)

15 or so albums I love on this list. Nice to see that Tricky album making an appearance!

minutemen is prob my fav but voted for pete rock and cl smooth cause i spun that recently and fell in love with it again

Earth, Wind & Fire – All ‘N All

yes

Might've gone with Capsule just based on the inclusion of Capsule but I'm way less familiar with that particular album. Pre-Millennium Tension is monumental and unstoppable so that

Lots of great stuff, but P.E. for me.

Number of albums heard: 19

Favourite: Of Human Feelings, possibly my favourite jazz album

Least-favourite: Slayer, I don't get it

Nicest surprise: Is This Desire, offputting though much of it is

Unheard, but most want to hear: Cyborg or Braxton

I'm a huge Yes fan but have little love for their live albums!

Yessongs was the first thing I ever heard by them in full, not counting "Roundabout" occasionally showing up on classic rock radio. I was very surprised by how hard it rocked, especially "Yours Is No Disgrace."

I have to vote for crescent mainly because the ballads are sooo good that I want to hear them on my deathbed - it's usually only the 4th or 5th or 6th coltrane album you hear about which is a real shame as it's more accessible than some of the more famous ones

interesting rollins choice, not an obvious one but I respect it

very nearly voted bad brains as one of the only punk albums that still hits me really hard - and the punks who reject the reggae tracks just don't get it man - but in the end I denied them over the gay weed incident

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

That top two is my Walkman every day of junior year of high school.

Based on how many if these I love, I can't wait to listen to the ones I've never heard.

missed the deadline, but would have voted for Reign in Blood.

I would’ve gone for Double Nickels if I’d seen this (though it’s not my favourite Minutemen album).

The Bad Brains ROIR tape is also great!

Nice to see Beg to Differ on a poll. Both that and Prove You Wrong are all time classics for me.
