04.14.08 | cool idea, I think that with a little effort from everyone, this could get off the ground. Now saying your favorite album of all time is a hard thing to do. Let me get back to you, because im not quite sure. |

You could just go to "Top Albums" and choose "All Time." Might be easier. |

04.14.08 | yea man, I know what you mean. As I was typing this up I was thinking to myself "How am I gonna choose MY favorite album?!" so yea take your time. I kinda feel like someone who actually participates on this site should be in charge of something like this but whatever, sorta just wanted to get the idea out there |
steadyeddie
04.14.08 | I kind of meant to try and narrow it down as much as possible to just one album? i know it seems impossible but i'm sure everyone has one album that's got a special place in their collection. or even if its just a recent favorite album |

04.14.08 | Yah the idea is kinda cool, but the majority of the responders are going to shoot off comments like "wtf dude you're so gay just look at the site's top rated albums" so this would be better as a journal entry. |
stoopkid
04.15.08 | Jeff Buckley - Grace |

04.15.08 | te site's top rated albums often are not very true. Ex: an album with 26 votes is very high but an album with 600 votes is lower by a poin. That doesn't seem very fair.
For me it's Frances the Mute by The Mars Volta.
I'd also include Relationship of Command by At the Drive-In if only because it's where the site gets its name from and it's near flawless. |

04.15.08 | Sevendust- Animosity....yeah I know people are gonna be like wtf but I don't care. |
jrowa001
04.15.08 | Opeth - My Arms Your Hearse (kind of tied with BWP but i think this one is a tad better now). |
steadyeddie
04.15.08 | Yea, I'm not on here enough to know simple little things like you can find this out by clicking the top rated albums (even though that makes a lot of sense), but it would be a cool way to put a name to the ratings if you get what I mean. Instead of just stats, you'll see who likes what album, and you'll be able to see it right away by lookin at a list. thanks for the input jrowa, willfellmarsy, stoopkid and paynetiger, we'll see what everyone thinks before I do anything else. I'm inclined to agree that the Top Rated albums listed don't realy reflect everyone's favorite album at the moment, but if you guys don't like the idea its cool, it was just a thought |

04.15.08 | Stop trying to justify your idea - we get it, and its a good one. This is really tough. Theres a big difference between what I think is "the best" album and "my favorite" album.
Alright, I know you only want one, but forgive me for giving you two:
Ride the Lightning - Metallica
Operation: Mindcrime - Queensryche
