Well I joined in with this live Mondays game so I may as well do it properly now. So I am dropping this journal and will try to update it every Monday. Hopefully I can keep it going. I wasn't sure if I'd listen to much this week and I ended up scrobbling 5 albums so it has started pretty well.

I will also try to keep each week within a general theme. This week began with Slayer because I've been on a thrash kick lately and you don't get much more thrash than Slayer. I then went a bit punk, thrash was influenced by punk and in truth I always thought that Danzig and Misfits straddle the two genres anyway.

1.) Slayer - Decade Of Aggression
2.) Misfits - Evilive
3.) Danzig - thrall-demonsweatlive
4.) The Damned - The Captain's Birthday Party
5.) NOFX - I Heard They Suck Live!

Live album of the week: Has to be Slayer - Decade of Aggression.


Bring on next Monday!

Here it is - a mega list of the best albums from the 1980's. I have used a ratings system to compile this list. All of the 24k tracks on my ipod are rated 1-5 stars. I have listened to 400-500 albums from the eighties(a lot of these albums several times) so it's easy for me to compile a list like this. There are no compilations or greatest hits on this list. No mini albums or EP's either, an album must have at least seven tracks to feature. In my opinion, there is only one album that I have ever heard that is perfection and every single track on it gets 5 stars. That album is at number one on my list. If you have never heard "Script of the Bridge" then please check it out. You won't be disappointed!

200 The Cult - Love (1985)
199 The Damned - Anything (1986)
198 Pixies - Surfer Rosa (1988)
197 Immaculate Fools - Hearts Of Fortune (1985)
