    That's an impressive list like me the 80's was when some the best music was made and some bands made their best music. *Ride The Lightening*

    I wondered about that album in my hurry to make my list not realizing that album was released in 1989. I love that album from beginning to end. Nice to see a Megadeth album on a list, their new album *ENDGAME* is set for release in September. I hope Dave Mustaine recovers from a bad neck injury/surgery.

    Uhhh... I this is a lot harder than I thought it would be... Although right now, I'd probably have to say 'Damaged' by Black Flag.

    Haha, I've got a vinyl with Pre-My War demos on it. It's got Chuck Biscuits on drums and it's amazing!

    I think Joshua Tree (U2) or In My Tribe (10000 Maniacs) are mine. I would have said London Calling too-especially Lost in the Supermarket-classic!

    Oh god, Lost in the Supermarket has to be one of the best songs on that album! Absolutely brilliant song, even more phenomenal of an album.

    That being said, for the 80's, I think I would have to say Appetite for Destruction as my favorite 80's album...at least right now...it's kinda early, and I can't think of others...

    wait, never mind...

    I'm also a pretty big fan of Back in Black, though AC/DC, Zeppelin, and other bands of that kind were more of a high school phase for me. I haven't really given either of those bands, along with sabbath, a listen to for over 3 years. Not to say I don't love them, but they just aren't the style I listen to as much anymore.

    How about Dead Kennedy's ~ Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables? Has that been mentioned yet?
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.
