Sorry, I came up with this one well before Seeker's one. Anyway, take one of your favorite music artists, and rank their albums. The one rule is that the artist must have put up at least 5 albums. Include album years, if you can, and remove the remix albums, EPs, etc. I'll do a few:

Nine Inch Nails
2007 - Year Zero
2000 - The Fragile
2005 - With Teeth
1994 - The Downward Spiral
2008 - The Slip
2008 - Ghosts I-IV
1989 - Pretty Hate Machine
1992 - Broken

Radiohead (this one was hard, since they are all good)
2003 - Hail To The Thief
2007 - In Rainbows
2000 - Kid A
1997 - OK Computer
2001 - Amnesiac
1995 - The Bends
1993 - Pablo Honey

Chemical Brothers
2002 - Come With Us
1997 - Dig Your Own Hole
1995 - Exit Planet Dust
1999 - Surrender
2007 - We Are The Night
2005 - Push The Button

Bukem is really hit and miss with me. Journey Inwards has a few good songs (Close to the Source, Music, Undress Your Mind), but I wasn't really impressed with the whole album. Same goes for Logical Progression. Besides, it's a bit too traditional for me. If I want D&B, I always turn to the master: Amon Tobin.

I thought about including how I would possibly change your Radiohead listing but other than moving up The Bends and OK Computer I don't see any changes. Although what would I move down? Auugh.

Maybe it was a single. I think it had album artwork. My bad.

I didn't really care for SCIENCE. A Crow Left of the Murder would have been higher if they would have had better songs towards the end of the ablum. First 3 tracks kick all sorts of ass, then the rest of the album just kinda lulls itself to sleep.

Almost like Type O Negative's Bloody Kisses. The first half was much better than the second half.

Also, Radiohead kicks ass except for Pablo Honey. Never did like that album at all.

So you didn't like Point of View or Rhodes to Freedom? Feel What You Feel is one of my favorites. I know it's no drum and bass, but I like it because of the Jazzy feel to it also.

It's been ages, so I may need to listen to him again.

BTW, Everything Everything is probably my favorite Underworld album, actually. King of Snake on that album is awesome, and there's just a lot of good cuts there. (Made me wish I saw them in concert when they were still completely together.)

They have some good B-Sides, too, like the Tin There mix of Pearl's Girl, and their mix of Chem Bros' Leave Home. (Both have a similar 160BPM feel to them.)

I'm partial to the Born Slippy single with the 7 or 8 mixes on there. That is one of my all-time favorites.
