I actually have to work at my new job so I don't have time to think up an intelligent reply to the question posed by the thread title.  But aside from picking albums that are actually by different artists, atomic couldn't have screwed his up any worse.

I was sorta surprised to see Adele on that list. Weird.

I still think most bands worth a damn puts out more than one "great" record and usually they're back to back. And my point was suggesting that a lot of times it's more than one. You can take your pick.

Why would you be suprised by Adele.  She has sold 35 million albums between the two.  That is a good sign that a lot of people think they are great albums.  You would be more likely to question Husker Du who never had an album in the top 100 and weren't popular in the punk/hardcore scene back in the day.

I think its pretty remarkable that bands like Husker Du and Meat Puppets recorded albums on the extreme cheap, with no production budgets, no label promotion, nothing, and they're still relevant, discussed and beloved 30 years later. That is significant.

I agree that Adele is talented and her records will be listened to in the future, but you cannot compare her 'art' to bands that made music entirely on their own, without a legion of handlers and writers and promo people, that is still cherished by a significant number of people.

God you're naive. I feel sorry for you.
