I'm going to listen to the top 3 upvoted albums and give you my honest unfiltered thoughts.

Please explain what makes the album special to you. For context, lyrics are very important to me, so I gravitate to music with good storytelling.

Alright! Results are in. I'll be listening to:

Lateralus - Tool
To Pimp a Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar
Pink Moon - Nick Drake
Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness - The Smashing Pumpkins

(I know I said 3, but I couldn't resist!)

The Mountain Goats- the Sunset Tree. It's a concept album, if you're a lyric person give it a listen. Regardless if it gets enough upvotes. Do yourself a favor, it's that good

Is this John Green's Lemmy account I'm replying to?

I have no idea who john green is. Enlighten me

Ah, sorry. John Green the author and YouTuber is a huge fan of The Mountain Goats. He's been known to talk about them quite a bit on the podcast he does with his brother Hank.
