Your 10 Favorite Albums

[Tumn]

Hard to make a top 10, but here's my #1 favorite

Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral

 

[outerone]

ulver - bergtatt

Oh man how did I forget this album, Im gonna have to edit my list...
This album is one of the most spiritual albums in black metal, the first track is just like nothing else.

 

[outerone]

Another labum list, I love it.

This rarely changes but as of 3-2007 it goes like this:
(not in order)

Amorphis-Elegy
Sigur Ros- Aegis Brujun
Dimmu Borgir- Puritanical Euphoric Misantropia
Arcturus- Sideshow Symphonies
Tool- 10,000 Days
Opeth- Blackwater Park
Radiohead- Ok Computer
Metallica-black album (rarely listen to this anymore but it did change my life more than most albums in my collection)
Ulver -Perdition City

and I cant decide on the final album, this will be divided between about 10 albums.

Im replasing Arcturus - Sideshow with Ulver Bergtatt
and my final album slot will be taken by Pink Floyds Dark Side of the Moon
