101Science & Faith - The Script

This is one of the best albums ever. The best songs on this album would be: Exit Wounds because I love the Guitar at the end, You Won't Fell a Thing because the instrumental at the start is a great start to the album. I also love 3. Nothing because it was one of the first songs I knew by the band and I've always loved it. Finaly another one I've always loved "Science and Faith"

128Reasonable Doubt - Jay-Z

Easily one of the best rap albums EVER made and it was his first which is even more amazing. Absolutely flawless flow, production and just everything. Love every song on it, listen to it if you like rap

Definitely one of the essential hip hop albums of all time. Easily Jay's best record, that cemented his place as one of the greatest. A flawless masterpiece from top to bottom filled with classics.

robertoantonioortuso

You gotta give jigga some props for this classic


129The Massacre - 50 Cent

Just a Lil Bit and Candy Shop are the two best in this album!

Kylermikkelsen

50 Cent is the king of music!


130The Bodyguard - Whitney Houston

This is the ultimate of all albums. Who can forget the song "I will always love you"

THE BEST ALBUM OF THE WORLD BY WHITNEY HOUSTON WITH I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU...
WHO CAN'T VOTE THE WONDERFUL WONDER OF THE WORLD?
VOTE! VOTE! Come on!

The BEST ALBUM of all time with the BEST VOICE of all time - the one and only Whitney Houston!!!

131Ready To Die - The Notorious B.I.G.

132Exile on Main Street - Rolling Stones

133A Rush of Blood to the Head - Coldplay
A lot of the albums above this, they just have two or three standout songs. This should be in the top ten because every track is a classic and is worth listening to.
amazing rock songs, brilliant performances, outstanding tunes and beautiful coldplay style, one of the best albums of all time, thats for sure!

crackinsteve

Best ALBUM EVER by far and away the BEST album EVER!

134Jedanaest I Petnaest - Stijene

135Weezer - Weezer

136Led Zeppelin III - Led Zeppelin

This album may not be their best selling album, but it is certainly their best album by far! It marked a milestone for the band, being their most acoustic and bluesy album, it holds my 1st and fifth favorite songs, which are since I've been loving you and tangerine, this album is much like bb king, Stevie Ray Vaughan and An acoustic version of all dave matthews band made an album. I am not happy with the first choice, although it is a good album it is not the best, although one of the best selling albums. Let the underdog win, how popular doesn't mean how good, how is there no zeppelin?


137A Decade of Steely Dan - Steely Dan

138Songs In the Key of Life - Stevie Wonder
This has some of the most beautiful music ever written on it. I find it incredible that it isn't on here already.

Daisymorot


144Rust Never Sleeps - Neil Young

145Black Holes and Revalations - Muse

Aww... COME'ON MUSERS! This is the BEST ALBUM EVER! Need some cooperation here... *waiting*.. "Why, why, why"..


146Flood - They Might Be Giants

It's twenty years old and not even Nevermind could replace this album as one of the most remembered in alternative rock (possibly ever). You cannot call yourself an alt rock fan with hearing the classics in this album (Birdhouse, Particle Man, Istanbul, Twisting, eta).

147U2 - The Joshua Tree

with or without you, still haven't found what I'm looking for and where the streets have no name : 3 of the best songs ever along a dozen other gr8 tracks= BEST ALBUM EVER!

The greatest alum ever,where else would you find some of the greatest songs ever...This would pass as a best of album for any other band in the world.

Every single song in this album has a deep meaning embodied in itself. It is probably the best album of the greatest mellow rock band and U2's class is reflected in this piece of musical art. I on behalf of all U2 fans across the globe salute these legends who are responsible to bestow us peace of mind and satisfaction of soul

148The Script - The Script

149Illmatic - Nas

How is this 74? Nas is an inspirational hero, who slayed Jay Z. Respect Nas.

This album was not only astounding on every level, providing it's audience with every single one of it's exceptional tracks, but it also revolutionized a genre, a remarkable feat that I can't speak for every album of this list, but I must say it's rather hard to believe that many others have done so as well.

This is the best lyrical album ever and all albums above are bob or rock album hip hop doesn't get support enough


F8CK U GUYS

175Toxicity - System of a Down

Every song has a message that it reveals, and most songs are underrated because of the album's singles.
This should be much higher people, vote!

This and Lateralus are the best! Lateralus isn't even on this list though! And Lateralus is probably BETTER than Toxicity!

moose4life19

I don't understand how this is so low and lateralus isn't even on the list.

176Grace - Jeff Buckley

177Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Songs like Scar Tissue, Otherside, Around the World, Road Trippin', Savior, and Californication make this RHCP's best album

RHCPfan

It had some of the greatest songs ever: Californication, Scar Tissue, Otherside, Around the World, Savior, Road Trippin'. It doesn't stop there.
Californication is the best song and album ever. Otherside is the 2nd best song on the album. Road Trippin', Easily, Around the World, Scar Tissue, and Get on Top are also signifigantly awesome!

178Dahlia - X Japan

179British Steel - Judas Priest

180Animals - Pink Floyd
I absolutely love pink floyd.
This is the best and most underrated floyd album by far. If you are into rock and find the floyd to mellow, then this is the album for you. Give it a go it might just change your life.
The climax of the lyric composition of Waters with the virtuosismo of Gilmour. A crude sarcasm to the capitalism and society. This is not an album for everyone cause is a critic to society and it's no made to satisfy the superficial-simple-musical'taste of most people. I'm sorry but its true. Songs about 15 minutes with gorgous guitar solos and clever lyrics. Salmos being talked by a robot, sound of animals in the middle of the songs, dogs being dragged by the stone, sheeps rising up against the dogs and pigs, pigs on the wing. Animals is like read a book. Matter of fact, it's inspired in an orwell book.

181Back to Basics - Christina Aguilera

i would like to see anyone try singin and writing like this girl.

All genre in here, I love this concept, and this concept about 20th century era is really amazing in every videoclip

Best concept, best vocals, best songs, especially "candyman"... She can hit E5 note, I really love TINA, she's great singer

186Out of the Blue - Electric Light Orchestra

187Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
Best album of all time. Second would be 2112

188Crash Into Me - Dave Matthews Band

Forget about their recent pop success. This is DMB at their greatest. Every song on this album is better than most bands best number.

Modern day classic, classic the day it was released. This disc had SOMETHING for EVERYONE !!!!!

1908701 - Usher

191Indestructible - Disturbed

192North Country - The Rankin Family

One of the Staples of 80's Rock. Def Leppard Blew down the doors in 87 with this album. For a while they were the biggest band in the world.


195Countdown To Extinction - Megadeth

If you like the metallica black album then you will definitely love this GREAT megadeth album!

Really good, probably the best triumph album, however doesn't have their best song (Hold On)
