While I'm fired up and reviewing classic albums that shaped the post-hardcore and modern hardcore scene, I'd like to review my favorite album from this era, that being Songs About Fucking by Big Black.

What I believe to be the top 100 albums in the scene, remember, this is my list, not yours
For some reason the ranking is reversed, the top here is at last place and the number 1 is at the bottom
