I don't have a lot of full length CDs, I usually only get to hear other stuff through my friends. I'm just too cheap to by CDs on a regular basis.

[GRIFT]

10. Tool: Lateralus

9. Our Lady Peace: Naveed

8. The Clash: London Calling

7. Nils Lofgren Band Live

6. Townes Van Zandt: Live at Union Chapel, London, England

Chumbawamba - Pictures Of Starving Children Sell Records

Björk - Debut

SunnO))) & Boris - Altar

[Toa]

Emperor - Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk

Death - Symbolic

Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast

Ministry - Psalm 69

Dir En Grey - Vulgar

Marillion - Misplaced Childhood

Manticora - Hyperion

Ulver - Bergtatt

Tool - Lateralus

Faith No More - Angel Dust

In no particular order. There's a good handful of other albums I'll probably regret not putting on there in a minute or two, but the list changes so often that it doesn't really matter. Angel Dust and Lateralus are probably my decisive top two, though.
