This is a list comprised of my personal favorite albums. I tried to keep a limitation of two albums per band, but some musicians such will appear on the list at a higher frequency due to having multiple bands. Small reviews for each album will be added eventually. Please note that this list is still under heavy construction, and is no where near done. Many things are probably missing, and some albums may not remain for too long. My goal is to get 100 albums, but if that becomes too difficult I will chop the list down to 50 (or maybe 75). If you can think of any album you think I may be forgetting (read: an album you think I find to be one of my favorites, not your's), don't hesitate to remind me of it's existence.

And by "enjoy", I mean "suffer through, eagerly awaiting the end ... whether the close of the album or my own imminent demise, so long as the misery stops." woe is me. and woe is you, too.
