100 albums you should remove from your collection immediately
According to this article and list anyway.
In the main, we have not selected easy targets for removal -- we know that you know that the Milli Vanilli album you've got stashed away in a shoebox isn't exactly kosher. Nope, we chose critical darlings and must-have releases from the past and present. Some will bristle at our audacity for questioning the worth of any Beatles release or blithely pissing on Jane's Addiction's "masterpiece." Some will maintain that we're not qualified or that we'll never make an album as great as Dark Side of the Moon and accordingly should shut our traps. The approval an artist seeks by releasing an album is not guaranteed, even if music moguls, "tastemakers," and critics agree that it is merited. As music listeners, we've taken on the very modest project of flipping through our collections, listening to them, and separating the good stuff from the bad. If the creators of the "greats," the "classics," and the "hits" want to ensure that their efforts get the praise they deserve forevermore, they should take care that they are only accessible to sympathetic critics and fans. |

I just read through this list carefully.
I currently own ONE of the listed albums. At one point I think I had two others on tape. I've never heard of a quarter of the artists, and couldn't connect songs to half the ones I have heard of. Either I'm not even remotely with it, or I just have really good taste. |

Albums I have out of that list.
Beastie Boys: Paul's Boutique, Check Your Head, Ill Communication Pink Floydark Side of the Moon R.H.C.P.: Blood Sugar Sex Magic Love&Rockets:Earth,Sun and Moon Mogwai:Come on Die Young The Beatles:Sgt.Pepper's NIN:Pretty Hate Machine(atleast I think I own it) Jane's Addiction:Nothing Shocking Guess what, I'm keeping them all so he can go fuck himself. Any rock album can look childish , pretentious and especially out of fashion from a certain cynical point of view. But if you buy music because you care about what other people think, you're just a lemming who needs to be put out of your misery anyways. Man, I'm suprised The Cure's Disintegration didn't make the list....he must secretly have a soft spot for that album. |
