The 10 greatest albums of...

[Gorilla Stomper]

... the past 20 or so years. Genre doesn't matter, it is simply your opinion.

Debate is welcome, obviously flaming is not, keep it clean, Celebrity Deathmatch style. Post pics if you want, but keep them really small, preferably 128x128.

Heres my contributions, in sort of chronological order starting at 1990:

(1990) Pantera - Cowboys from Hell, (1992) Alice in Chains - Dirt


(1994) Madball - Set It Off, (1994) Machine Head - Burn My Eyes


(1995) Down - NOLA, (1998) Madonna - Ray of Light (like I said, genre doesn't matter)


(2001) Slayer - God Hates Us All, (2004) Mastodon - Leviathan


(2007) Behemoth - The Apostasy, (2008) Origin - Antithesis


So theres my 10.

If the layout is confusing, sorry, but I didn't like the length of the thread so I put the pics in pairs to save space.

10. Frightened Rabbit - The Midnight Organ Fight (2008)
9. Biffy Clyro - Infinity Land (2004)
8. LCD Soundsystem - Sound Of Silver (2007)
7. Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake Its Morning (2005)
6. Daft Punk - Discovery (2001)
5. Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (2006)

I doubt many people will care for my choices much so I won't bother with pictures, I'm not a big fan of the 90's by the way. Hence the mainly 00's focus.
