Chewer March Madness Takes on the Readers of Rolling Stone

flyarz · March 23, 2003, 1:09am

Rolling Stone polled its readers in 2002 for the Top 100 albums of all-time. It had a lot of bad choices, but it is a very accessible list, which is something I wanted so that as many people as possible could vote.

So reply here if you want a First Round game. One game per person.

I’ll start:
2. Appetite for Destruction (Guns N Roses)
15. Hybrid Theory (Linkin Park)
Winner: Appetite for Destruction

Somewhat tough choice but the Nirvana Unplugged, while great, was more of a tv event. I’m not a big Pink Floyd fan but this album was pretty good

Winner: 3. Dark Side of the Moon (Pink Floyd)

Never was a big Smashing Pumpkins fan, but their double CD MCATIS was damn fine (though I think “Siamese Dream” is their best). Dylan’s “Highway” is a great album as well, but “Blonde on Blonde” is his best.

In a close one, the Smashing Pumpkins take it.

flyarz · March 23, 2003, 4:28am

For Scott:
6. Weezer/Blue (Weezer)
11. Definitely Maybe (Oasis)

For Starving Dogs:
7. Siamese Dream (The Smashing Pumpkins)
10. Grace (Jeff Buckley)

7. Siamese Dream (The Smashing Pumpkins)
10. Grace (Jeff Buckley)

sigh. my hatred of the Smashing Pumpkins knows no limits. I hate, hate, hate them. With that said, Buckley just isn’t my cup of tea.

Siamese Dream (The Smashing Pumpkins) wins
~based on maybe one or two songs, tops~
