The New Pornographers' debut, Mass Romantic, stands as one of their best if not their best release for me and stands as a classic within the power pop genre with its energetic and uplifting soundscape and a sensual romantic lyrics make for a catchy and fun listen with many classics such as the self titled track, Letter from an Occupant and fantastic deeper cuts like Breakin' the Law makes the record great throughout and never boring.

L'Enfant Sauvage, is no where near my favorite from the legendary progressive death metal band and in fact, when it came out and i first listen to it i would of rated it a lot lower but I can't lie, this record has grown on me so much over the past decade with songs like The Axe, The Gift of Gift and the self titled, this record is one of their most heaviest and aggressive releases, whilst offering some really introspective moments and lyrics for a well balanced listen.

A great explosive, raw and noisy bluesy post-punk record by a combination of some of the best names from the 80's from Nick Cave, Rowland S. Howard, Mick Harvey etc. for The Birthday Party's last studio album which is a combination of intense drug filled insanity. Easily one of the most psychotic and chaotic records from the 80's

Lykke Li's 3rd studio album, I Never Learn is a powerful melancholic indie pop record which is both easy to engage whilst offering some amazing atmosphere and great lyrics for a soft spoken bittersweet 33 minutes, making the record not only dense with its content with so much to unpack but perfectly capturing that feeling of loneliness

Krokus' most regonizable album due Screaming in the Night and alongside other great classic heavy metal tracks such as the self titled opener and Eat the Rich make for a fun straight forward and catchy record which isn't as impress as other records in the same scope but for fans of early heavy metal and 80's hard rock such as Scorpions, Krokus is right up your alley.

Hey Mate,
I'm currently making a list compacted with AOTY user' top 10 worst albums and would love for you to contribute to that. The information if you decide to share will be used to create "The Average AOTY Users worst album" consisting of 50 albums. If you feel comfortable contributing please mention your top 10 worst albums in order from 1 being the worst and 10 being the 10th worst. It would also be highly appreciated if you are ok to give a few words why as well :)
Thank You So Much Have A Good Day!

Hi again, sorry to bother you.
As I was creating the list, due to issues that arose and just new ideas I got, I thought it'd be sick if each of the top 10 albums had a bit of a foreword in their descriptions. Anyways, getting to the point, I'd appreciate it so much if you could just reply with a couple of sentences on Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven regarding its importance in musical history, influence and, most importantly, why you love it/what it means to you.
Thanks so much for reading and replying, if you do. It'd mean a lot.

Hey, I hope you're doing well.
I'm making a list where, judging by AOTY user's individual top ten albums, I'm compiling a ranked community top 100. I'd love it if you could contribute by just replying with your top ten ranked from 1-10; I'm totally fine with being redirected to a ranked favourites list of sorts, if that's what you'd prefer.

Hey, I hope you're doing well.
I'm making a list and I'd love to know which album has had the greatest influence on your current taste in music? If you want, I'd also appreciate it if you could say exactly how it's made you grow/learn more as a listener (don't worry, you don't have to do this part).
Thank you for reading and answering, if you do.
