Amy at no.1- can't argue there.
But so many bad albums listed where the explanation doesn't hold up.  Surely there's room for two U2 albums in there.  I'd go with HTDAAB and SOI.

Incredibly uninspiring list if you ask me.

Bailed on that shit real quick. If they really think there's 95 albums from the 21st century better than Miss E, there's no hope for them.

It's missing Gillian Welch's Time (The Revelator), Green Day's American Idiot, Mulehead's Rocket Surgery, Carly Rae Jepsen's Emotion, Jason Isbell's Nashville Sound, Alvvays' Antisocialites, and another Arctic Monkeys record or two.

I was panicking for a while but like buses, my non U2 favourites - Arcade Fire, PJ Harvey and Radiohead - arrived together. I love Stories From The City... but Let England Shake is a few notches above it. Very surprised it ranked higher here.

There should have been at least one other Arcade Fire album here - The Suburbs particularly.

Let England Shake is a fair few notches above Stories - very surprised to see them the way round they are here.

Just another fact to show how worthless and stupid the liberal Guardian is. Definitely an embarrassment to the United Kingdom.

It is hardly a shock that they have found 100 albums from the least nearly 20 years that they consider better than any of the stuff u2 have put out in that period.

I can name at least 20 that have been released in just the last year or so, just from the relatively small pool of records i will have heard.

Well, if you feel that way, its amazing that you would bother to spend any time here. I certainly would not bother to read and post on an artist forum if I thought their work over the past 20 years, 5 albums + non-album tracks was that bad.

We've had this discussion before - nothing has changed since the last time we had it!

Agreeing to disagree is the best thing here i think, pal.
