Albums that, in my opinion, should be owned by fans of music

A Listmania! list by C Knapton (Gateshead, Tyne & Wear United Kingdom)
 
Earth Versus The Wildhearts
1.  Earth Versus The Wildhearts by Wildhearts
The list author says:
  "The album that makes me regret my youth. Being too young to have caught the Wildhearts from the beginning, I have to find all their releases now. This is easily my favourite record of all time."
£7.99   Used & New from: £1.22
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (26 customer reviews)

Korn
2.  Korn by Korn
The list author says:
  "Say what you will about Korn, this album rocks, and easily beats anything they've done since (although I hope Untouchables will rectify this). Simply containing the mega-anthem "Blind" is enough."
£3.79   Used & New from: £0.76
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (58 customer reviews)

Lateralus
3.  Lateralus by Tool
The list author says:
  "This, being my favourite of the 5 albums Tool have made, is representative of Tool (in this list). Tool are my 2nd favourite band, after the Wildhearts, and all of their stuff should be owned."
Used & New from: £5.14
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (134 customer reviews)

Obsolete
4.  Obsolete by Fear Factory
The list author says:
  "Although my favourite FF track (Linchpin) is from a different album, this concept album is my favourite. Each track is a mini-story, and the tracks combined tell a whole story."
Used & New from: £2.00
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (14 customer reviews)

Nothing/Ritual/Janes
5.  Nothing/Ritual/Janes by Jane's Addiction
The list author says:
  "Boxed set of a fantastic band's best albums. Ritual de lo Habitual and Nothing's Shocking are personal favourites, but it's all good. Also seem to be greatest inspiration to my next choice"
Used & New from: £8.36
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Anyone
6.  Anyone by Anyone
The list author says:
  "Very psychadelia, Jane's Addiction type music here. All the songs are like likkle masterpieces. You're basically spoilt for choice, but don't let that put you off."
£4.49   Used & New from: £0.01
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)

Boy Hits Car
7.  Boy Hits Car by Boy Hits Car
The list author says:
  "Its a cliche, but there are no bad tracks on here. Every one brilliant, making this one hell of an album."

Land Of The Free
8.  Land Of The Free by Pennywise
The list author says:
  "I've heard many people say "Land of the Free? is just power chords". Well, whats wrong with power chords?"
£9.90   Used & New from: £2.26
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (10 customer reviews)

Statement
9.  Statement by Nonpoint
The list author says:
  "This is not just another Stateside nu-metal album. Its a very good Stateside nu-metal album. Not all the songs are great, but many are, especially the almost epic "Double Stakked"."
£10.75   Used & New from: £0.61
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Reign in Blood
10.  Reign in Blood by Slayer

Art Of Drowning
11.  Art Of Drowning by A.F.I.

£8.65   Used & New from: £3.23
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (20 customer reviews)

Broke
12.  Broke by (Hed) Pe
The list author says:
  "This was one of my early favourite albums, and still blows me away whenever I listen to it. Can't wait for their next effort. (ps. the password for the secret track, is in the lyrics for "I Got You".)"
Used & New from: £1.88
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (18 customer reviews)

Primitive
13.  Primitive by Soulfly
The list author says:
  "A great album from the former Sepultura frontman. Each song is a nice blast to the ears (and vocal chords, if you try to sing along, as I discovered.)"
£5.49   Used & New from: £3.56
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (33 customer reviews)

Rage Against The Machine
14.  Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine

4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (141 customer reviews)

Blood Sugar Sex Magik (U.S. Version)
15.  Blood Sugar Sex Magik (U.S. Version) by Red Hot Chili Peppers
The list author says:
  "RHCP's best album,for me. Although Californication comes close because of "Otherside", this album manages to be slightly better by virtue of "Under the Bridge"."
£5.66   Used & New from: £0.59
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (91 customer reviews)

Frequencies from Planet Ten
16.  Frequencies from Planet Ten by Orange Goblin
The list author says:
  "Orange Goblin are one of the last true *rock* bands on the planet. They live the life, not as well as Keith Moon did in his heyday, but they do. And they have a kick-ass riff on "The Astral Project"."
Used & New from: £5.90

Best of the Beast
17.  Best of the Beast by Iron Maiden
The list author says:
  "As much of a British institution as the Royal Family, Maiden deserve respect. This album really is their Best of, with all the anthems everyone loves (the exception being "Wicker Man",released later.)"
£13.50   Used & New from: £2.92
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (22 customer reviews)

Terria
18.  Terria by Devin Townsend
The list author says:
  "A monster of an album from the Canadian madman.My personal favourite is the 9 minute "Earth Day" .All the tracks are epic in scale, and heavy as you like."
£9.11   Used & New from: £8.99
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (11 customer reviews)

Stop Thinking
19.  Stop Thinking by Clam Abuse
The list author says:
  "Ginger of the Wildhearts and Anti-Product genius Alex Kane go all acoustic in this very strange album. Just couldn't resist including this classic, probably the heaviest acoustic album ever."
Used & New from: £2.98
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

SG5
20.  SG5 by Silverginger
The list author says:
  "Another of Ginger's bands, making pure sing-a-long rock. Personally, I prefer the Japanese release, but this will be easier to get hold of for most people. The live show is fantastic too."
Used & New from: £2.33

Refining the Theory
21.  Refining the Theory by Miocene
The list author says:

5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (10 customer reviews)

High As Hell
24.  High As Hell by Nashville Pussy

  "Any good redneck (and most bad ones) need this album. I ain't no redneck, but this album is so desperately low down and dirty that you just can't resist."
£10.86   Used & New from: £7.73

Mutter
25.  Mutter by Rammstein
The list author says:
  "Theres lots of albums I haven't had space to mention, such as Rammstein, and many more that I haven't got yet, such as Five Pointe O, Cyclefly and Vacant Stare."
