Best of Terrorizer Top 50 Punk Albums Of All Time

Why would they leave out a no9? Is that an unlucky number in punk?

Of those I own 31 and have heard 46!

Tell me about these:

23. Septic Death - Now That I Have The Attention What Do I Do With It?
43. Throw Bricks At Coppers - How Many More Brutal Fucking Police Murders?
47. Crumbsuckers - Life Of Dreams

Any good? I like some other Septic Death stuff, don't know that album though. Never heard either of the other 2.

You tell me! You gave me the list ;)

Weird list but I guess the only way for something like this not to be 'weird' is to be totally canon, so kudos I guess. Whoever parachuted Hard Skin onto there is a hero. I think 'Cut' is probably my favourite thing on there though

I have a boot of that Septic Death album. I like it. Really ratty quasi-crossover type stuff

I assume that's meant to be the Slits' Cut - it said The Stilts on the list I got it from...

I wouldn't have picked that Conflict album - Increase The Pressure or It's Time To See Who's Who instead.

Is this actually a new list or are we doing Terrorizer Wednesday?

I have a Septic Death comp (on mp3) called Crossed Out Twice or something similar - dunno if that contains anything from the album here but that was cool.

The latter. Blame Herman!

no Pink Flag? bleh. if London Calling is on there then that one should be, too.

Dead Boys - Young, Loud And Snooty

I shan't need anyone
I shan't need Mummy or Daddy...

lol I knew I'd missed some more typos, the list was full of them.

Mummy's Little Monster? Is Mike Ness an anglophile, I dunno?

haha thats a good one. Im still voting dead boys though.
I think i know about 24 of these.

Bad Brains - Rock For Light over Bad Brains - Bad Brains = RONG

number 9 must be flipper or the dicks!

Yeah that was def the one that stood out as a not-commonly-held opinion

xpost

'Generic' would actually be something I'd half expect to see in a list like this but the chance of a bunch of Britishers putting a Dicks album in is pretty remote

I'd like to know what no9 was. If we pretend it was flipper then i want to change my vote!

oh wait there is no number 9 option. Damn

48. MDC - Millions Of Dead Cops

MDC play over here, I don't think the Dicks ever have.

That was my reasoning, I think a lot of anarcho/crusty dudes are into MDC, Dicks probably not so much

This is a terrible list! No X-Ray Spex, Adverts, Vibrators, Buzzcocks, Wire, Siouxsie, Jam, Saints, Slaughter and The Dogs....

Adverts were terrific.

ohh i didnt know MDC played there, fair enough

plastic surgery diasters, by a hair.

it makes absolutely no sense that this is placed lower than bedtime for democracy, which is by far and away DK's weakest effort.

I dunno, they certainly weren't breaking barriers w/ that one but if I was gonna do like a CDR of DKs stuff it would definitely have a fair few tracks from BFD on there

agreed. not saying it's a bad album as such, just not great compared to the rest of their stuff. there are certainly two or three classics on it.

plastic surgery utterly destroys it, is all.

i can't vote in these things. too many good records. and then you throw fun house in there, i mean, really. i can't choose between death church and from the cradle to the grave. that's just silly. to give one example.

You can just play them all to keep in with the spirit of the colonels poll then!

My heart says Damned Damned Damned, my head is too busy choosing between Cut and London Calling.

"This is a terrible list! No X-Ray Spex, Adverts, Vibrators, Buzzcocks, Wire, Siouxsie, Jam, Saints, Slaughter and The Dogs...."

Not to mention Adam & The Ants, Alternative TV, Angelic Upstarts, Blondie, Boys, Devo, Dickies, Dictators, Heartbreakers, Richard Hell, Lurkers, Modern Lovers, Penetration, Pere Ubu, Rezillos, Ruts, Patti Smith, Stiff Little Fingers, Stranglers, Subway Sect, Suicide, Swell Maps, Talking Heads, Television, Undertones, X....

Stupid that they think that Rocket to Russia is better than the debut. Just stupid. "The Ramones" is the best punk album of all time.

Terrorirzer are morons.

i like Terrorizer. it's a good magazine.

Maybe so, but these lists blow chunks.

no Screamers no credibility

this list is just weird. not really bad. it just feels really random. it's actually a lot like a list i might make. go thru your records until you've got 50 that fit the bill.

"no Screamers no credibility"

they never made an album!

To be fair they'd have to have actually released an album to be eligible!
Although I doubt Terrorizer would have included them anyway.

xxpost

yeah, it's not a bad list - most of these I either own or want to.

No Minutemen, no credibility.

(Okay, I'm half-joking. But only half.)

"this list is just weird. not really bad. it just feels really random."

I'd be prepared to wager that it was produced by someone (or someones) who is (or are predominantly) (a) British, and (b) at least a couple of years younger than I am (I'm rapidly approaching 45).

"No Minutemen, no credibility."

In this company, I'd suggest: no Minutemen, no Circle Jerks, no Descendents, no Flipper, no Fugazi, no Mission Of Burma, no Meat Puppets, no Replacements, no Sonic Youth: not American (or if they are then they're engaged in some strange inter-state one-upmanship that is beyond my comprehension).

Well Terrorizer's a British metal mag. Most of the stuff on that list has a bit more cachet with metal dudes than most of the stuff people have deemed notable by its absence. Not all of it (eg Slits), but most of it

Aaaaaah. Now that you say that, I can't help but wonder how Cut managed to sneak in there at all.

It also makes me wonder why Killing Joke aren't on there....

It's a strange omission, esp as KJ get loads of terrorizer coverage.

Alex check no 50.

Terrorizer list >>>> Kerrang list. Although there's some great albums on the K list that aren't on the T list (yes, including no. 50!)

I'm guessing that's from about 2001? Right now I would rather listen to Dookie than a hueg swathe of either list

One of my ten fave albums of anything ever is still the Pistols'. Where can I shoplift that Discharge record from? (I live in Seattle.)

"It's a strange omission, esp as KJ get loads of terrorizer coverage."

There's no 'Joke here either: "Terrorizer" magazine's "Best Album Of The Eighties"

There is on Best Album From Terrorizer's Most Important Albums Of The Nineties

"London Calling". A great album that is so much more than just punk.

I thought Geir would've voted Scum

London Calling features a song not written by the artist. Surely this cannot be forgiven?

Also the Misfits were quite melodic, no?

Only heard some danzig era songs and they sounded pretty melodic .

V. odd list. Still, at least they are all Punk albums, and there's no contrarian inclusion of Scritti Politti et al.

Voted for the ol' warhorse most folk here seem to love to hate, waiting to see if I'm the only one.

V. odd list. Still, at least they are all Punk albums, and there's no contrarian inclusion of Scritti Politti et al.

Someone is bound to complain now you pointed that out.

Hey, wouldn't be ILM otherwise, amiright?

How very true.

i'm kind of shocked no minutemen or wire. barring either "pink flag" or "double nickels," i'm voting for "machine gun ettiquette" for no other reason than it's fucking awesome.

It truly is fucking awesome.

No Husker Du.

No credibility

For those who exceeded the time limit, the correct answer is Rudimentary Peni - Death Church.

Hows post-danzig Misfits stuff?

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

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

wow

ilx goes sXe

List makes a lot more sense in that order.

A few of the albums with 0 votes surprises me.

I always thought Out of Step was an EP.
