Gonna go through the rym top 100 in order and give my thoughts/ratings for each, including relistens
1. Radiohead - OK Computer (relisten)
Easily one of my favorite albums of all time. Each song builds and breaks down in such a satisfying way and the whole mood of the album is vaguely nostalgic for me, making this such an addicting and wonderful album to come back to.
10/10

2. Radiohead - Kid A (relisten)
While not quite as consistent as it& #39;s predecessor, Kid A creates a unique, almost extraterrestrial atmosphere through it& #39;s use of electronics and a relatively diverse instrumental palette. The highlights are still some of the band& #39;s best.

3. Pink Floyd - TDSOTM (relisten)
What this album lacks in compelling songwriting is mostly made up for with a grand, cinematic tone and some stellar highlights on the back half. It does drag at points but overall PF& #39;s landmark record is still very good.

4. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (relisten)
This one grew off me hard. It& #39;s still good overall but the songwriting outside of the title track really failed to keep my attention, resulting in an album that sounds nice but never quite reaches greatness.

5. King Crimson - ITCOTCK (relisten)
I love the fantasy world ITCOTCK creates and the instrumentation throughout is beyond incredible. Admittedly the middle is kind of slow, but that& #39;s made up for with some fantastic bookends. Not peak prog, but still pretty great.

6. The Velvet Underground & Nico (relisten)
The juxtaposition of these simple, poppy tracks like "Femme Fatale" against the murky lyricism and subtle chaos of a "Heroin" or a "Venus In Furs" makes for such a unique and fascinating listen, especially for & #39;67. Great album.

13. GY!BE - LYSF (relisten)
I think I get the appeal, this just doesn& #39;t do anything for me. It often sounds good and there are a handful of pretty epic and triumphant moments, but most of the time I just find myself bored listening to this. Not bad, just not for me.
