Beatles - Rubber soul The Best of the Doors Alisha's Attic - Illumina Meredith Brooks - Deconstruction Catatonia - International Velvet Pulp - Different Class The Pretenders - Packed! Green Day - Dookie Garbage - Version 2.0 Suzanne Vega - Tried and True.

That was easier than I thought. Which would yours be, Meghan?

Only ten? Damn.
(in no specific order and sometimes no specifiying)
1. Live Secret Samadhi because I love LIVE and this particular c.d. is sitting in front of me.
2. KMFDM XTORT, Light, or Adios. those are my 3 favorite KMFDM cd's and I wouldn't care which one I had to listen to.
3. Sonic Youth Jet Set trash and no star because it's a good c.d. and the second song on it is cool as hell.
4. Guster Lost and Gone forever because Guster rules and they need to play in Cleveland.
5. Any Nirvana Album but if I have to choose the unplugged album. It's Nirvana 'nuff said.
6. Rage Against the machine Rage Against the machine I like all the others don't get me wrong but this one I listen to the most.
7. Any of the 4 main Korn albums
8. Atari Teenage Riot Burn berlin burn or 60 second wipe out. I need some anarchy.
9. Smashing Pumpkins Pisces Iscariotbecause this has some really cool songs on it. OR Mellon Collie b/c I love that c.d. and it's REALLY scratched up from listening to it so much.
10. At the drive in In casino out b/c it's a really good emo punk band that plays good shows.
