Getting just one second place was enough to put an album in the top 100

From here forwards it gets more interesting

[sventington]

Hooray for Condor Moments! All is well now.

[Qúentin Räikkönen]

None of mine are on yet.

[New Born Lee]

For god's sake, I bought Vespertine today. It'll probably be up there on my list, too.

[Dawnthief]

2 of my albums on there already

[Ghosty Ghost]

It seems a bit pointless to me to have albums that were only voted by one person, perhaps a top 50 would have been better. But, since it's up there already, where is my Sleater-Kinney album artwork?

I thought a top 100 would be interesting, but problematic, hence my lack of effort in presenting 100-70.

Erm.........I found some artwork but it was way too big

56. Amplifier - Amplifier (2004)

Originally released by Music For Nations on June 6, 2004, it was re-released by the German-based label SPV in May 2005 after the collapse of the former. The Music For Nations release came in two formats: jewel case with 10 tracks, and digipack with 13 tracks. Unlike normal special editions, the 13-track version's bonus tracks are in the middle of the album, apparently forming the "true" album as the band intended it. The SPV release contains a bonus EP with four additional tracks (all previously released) and videos of two songs from the original.

55. White Stripes - Elephant (2003)

Despite this change, Heather Phares of Allmusic believed the album "sounds even more pissed-off, paranoid, and stunning than its predecessor…Darker and more difficult than White Blood Cells". The record garnered much critical acclaim upon its release, and went on to win a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album in 2004.

The record is also available as a vinyl LP with a free MP3 download coupon.

52. Sigur Rós - Með Suð í Eyrum Við Spilum Endalaust (2008)

Originally Posted by Wikipedia

All the lyrics for the album were originally intended to be in English, but in the end the band decided that Icelandic felt more natural to them. Some lyrics were translated back into Icelandic, while some songs got completely new texts. It is the band's first album to feature a track sung in English ("All Alright"). The first track on the album, "Gobbledigook", premiered on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 music show in the UK on May 27, 2008. "Festival" was premiered on Colin Murray's Radio 1 show on June 3, 2008.

In general, the music continues Sigur Rós' departure from their generally ethereal and minimalist music, being (as the title and cover suggest) more playful and fanciful than their early work, featuring more traditional guitar melodies, acoustic instrumentation, and folk-oriented compositions following in the vein of their later albums.

51. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium (2006)

Originally Posted by Wikipedia

Stadium Arcadium is the ninth studio album by alternative rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, released on May 5, 2006, on Warner Bros. Records in Europe and May 9 in the United States. It sold 442,000 copies in the U.S. in the first week and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. The album produced five singles: "Dani California", "Snow ((Hey Oh))", "Desecration Smile", "Hump De Bump", and "Tell Me Baby". According to the band's vocalist Anthony Kiedis, Stadium Arcadium was originally scheduled to be a trilogy of albums each released six months apart, but was eventually condensed into a double album.

The record was critically praised for integrating musical styles from several aspects of the band's career. The album gained the band seven Grammy Award nominations in 2007 including an award for Best Rock Album. It was the most nominations that the band had garnered in their 25-year career. Kiedis attributed the album's success to less abrasive dynamics within the band, saying that the band's "chemistry, when it comes to writing, is better than ever. There was always a struggle to dominate lyrically. But we are now confident enough in who we are, so everybody feels more comfortable contributing more and more valuable, quality stuff"
