2headedboy's "My All-Time Favorite 25 Alternative Albums"

The current culmination of collecting and listening to CDs, cassettes, and records over the past 25 years. Simply, the albums that have moved me, have inspired me, and have changed my life in some way. This list leans heavily on more recent work, thanks to years of drug use and short-term memory loss. Albums listed are not in any special order, except for number one.
