This album was one of the first cassettes of real music I had as a kid, along with "Business as Usual" by Men At Work and "Eliminator" by ZZ Top. I have not actually revisited any of those albums fo...

I was late to the Fela Kuti party, having just heard of him within the last year or so. I'll say that this is not my favorite of his works (I struggle calling this a "song" at over 28 minutes), but ...

How am I supposed to follow that mess?To get back on topic, the morality meter in the game isn't really good/bad. Because this is the Persona team (which shares some DNA with the SMT games), it is m...

@allthedinos: Era Vulgaris is definitely a step below some of the other albums, but Rock Band made me love "3's & 7's". That song goes hard.

I thought I was going to be that guy, but two other people have already said they like Rated R better. That said, this is a really good album, but it doesn't quite keep me for every song. Mosquito ...

@shindig: Madness definitely counts, but it is an earlier generation. I'm a big fan of The Specials, whom would also fall into that category.

Hurrah for the return of the Archive! Not much for me to comment on here, but I do enjoy reading them.

I slightly cheated with picking this album. I had heard of Goldfinger before. I was definitely a ska fan and "Here in Your Bedroom" was popular enough on MTV and the radio. But THPS was the first ...

@broshmosh said:Honestly this sucks absolute balls. Can previously-purchased titles even be downloaded anymore?I would bet that Nintendo will do a good job keeping that available. A couple years ago...

@peezmachine said:I would expect to see a lot of Tales From the Borderlands alumni on this list.Hadn't thought about that. Jungle would have been a good one for the list for me.

@cyrusraven: I think either works, but we aren't looking for video game soundtracks. So said video game composers would have to have an album of their original works submitted. I'm not sure where so...

Also my first Opeth album. I was shocked... Not only by how much I liked it, but the vast number of influences I heard(or thought I heard, anyway). There were so many bits and pieces of other acts t...

@shindig: I agree. The album is pleasant enough, but there just isn't anything going on that grabs me and makes me pay attention. Even on past chill albums we have covered, there was usually some v...

@unclejam23: The story of Ziggy Stardust was definitely made up after the songs were done and dusted. The album has a loose theme of sorts, but the real storytelling came from the live shows and inter...

The spiral notebook for the original Fallout was always one of my favorites. Working Designs did some high quality manuals on heavy stock paper with images behind the text on the pages, but they did ...

Isn't this where we came in? First off, I'd like to express my condolences to anyone that grew up in England in the first half of the 20th Century. It sounds like it was a real bad time. I enjoy P...

I'm not someone that closely followed their catalogue, but I do think that their top three albums were in their first four released (Black Sabbath and Vol. 4, being the other two), and Paranoid may be...

Just wanted to note that this was a very entertaining write-up, and I'm looking forward to you resuming the Saturn countdown when you get there.

I came at this album from a certain angle, due to my past history and music fandom. Specifically, I came into this album seeing it as a response to David Bowie's Low, from 1977. I know that this is...

Pretty sure Alex used to coordinate most of those guest lists. Given the number of contacts he has throughout this corner of the entertainment business and the amount of effort that seemed to go in ...
