Pitchfork Media's "Canada's Top 25 Albums of All Time"

Add to my lists | Print this list

Music365.com recently published their top 100 British albums of all time. Instead of voicing my obvious objections, I’ve decided to do something more positive. Well, okay, I can’t ignore the fact that <i>What’s the Story (Morning Glory)?</i> and <i>Mezzanine</i> beat out <i>Abbey Road</i> and <i>Sgt. Pepper’s</i>. What’s up with that?! The fact that you had to think for a second about who made <i>Mezzanine</i> proves my point. Also, where’s <i>Loveless</i>? Anyway, let’s bring the focus back to this side of the Atlantic. Let’s talk about the best Canadian albums of all time. Great albums need no further specification of band name. When I say <i>Cuts Like a Knife</i> and <i>Moving Pictures</i>, you know what time it is.
