Do one for best ever albums website too
I will say Jon, I don't play games much in general anymore, but the Minecraft soundtracks are some of the best ambient pieces ever made. I highly recommend volume one.
the track "aria math" alone will convince anyone of that fact
Both Volume One and Two called Alpha and Beta and his three latest tracks from Update Aquatic are all great in ambients.
Eh, Minecraft music is whatever. Some tracks are good but imo as overrated as the game. Fun game with friends tho
@@neonthunder3261 Sorry, but L
I was surprised to see Madvillainy at #3, it's a great hip hop album. It was my first real exposure to MF Doom. RIP
@@Noah.G Thanks
all caps when you spell the man's name
Hounds of Love by Kate Bush is amazing Jon! Especially if you enjoy Billie Eilish, Lorde, dream pop, art pop, alternative folk, etc. I think it’ll quickly become one of your all time favorites. Also, random fact, Big Boi is a huge fan of hers
Huge agree, hounds of love and soundtracks for the blind are my top 2 albums of all time
@@calebeedude5331 I can’t imagine Jon would vibe with SFTB all that much unfortunately
I would loooove to see a review on this!! Hounds of Love is a momentum in pop music history!!
I don’t really see the Bully Eyelash or Lorde comparisons but he really should check it out, crazy to me that as a music critic he’s never listened to any Kate Bush or Björk.
@@mirroredheart7292 Writer in the Dark definitely has a lot of Kate Bush influence
Fishmans is definitely worth a listen. They’re a legendary Japanese dream pop /dub/ rock band from the 90s, and their run from aerial camp to long season to uchu nippon setagaya is one of the best 3 album runs of all time, not to mention 98.12.28, one of the best live albums of all time and their last ever performance before the lead singer tragically passed away.
I would be so happy to see some fishmans content in future sometime🤧
It's so nice to see albuns from brazilian artists (Jorge Ben Jor, Novos Baianos, Racionais MC's) on this list!
There was also chico buarque and milton nascimento!!! Really glad for the representation
Ah, é!
And all of them were flatly ignored in the video. Brilliant...
The minecraft sound track brings such calming and nostalgic feelings for me personally and that's what puts it in the best for me
Black Country, New Road is a must listen!
I’m so glad to see Ants from up Here like already here. Yeah it feels like strong recency bias but it truly is a magnificent record. I’d be dammed to see a record this year knock it out as my favorite. I loved their debut but this new one was something special
You should listen to Homogenic, Bjork's best work along with Vespertine. Amazing art pop and experimental records.
In Rainbows pfp mhm
YESSS I AM OBSESSED WITH BJORK
Somehow didn’t fully realize you’ve never done a Beatles ranked and now I need that
Wait I never noticed that the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack was there. But I agree. It’s one of my favorite games of all time and the soundtrack is one of the reasons.
You should do a video like this for BestEverAlbums as well. They also both the overall list that most people see, but there’s also a way to see the top 100 according to user averages. You can do this with songs and artists as well (they also have an overall top artists list as well).
This guy just skipping over stevie wonder and madvillain like they’re a bunch of nobodies

8:17 You are missing out, the music is fantastic.
Definitely the biggest thing Jon's missing out on
Jon, please check out more King Crimson, especially Red, Larks’ Tongues in Aspic, and Discipline. The band truly is so much more than their (incredible by the way) debut; just one of the most freakishly talented and doggedly innovative musical projects I’ve ever listened to.
Skipped Kate Bush's Hounds of Love and Bjork's Homogenic... damn boy 💀
The biggest flaw with this list is the amount of reviews for some of the albums. You'll see one go from almost 2000 reviews to one with the less than 200.
Definitely make sure to check out Fishmans, especially their live version of Long Season! It's a one of a kind music experience
I can’t believe you never listened to hounds of love by Kate Bush 😳😳😳😳😳
Jon, for the love of god, do yourself a favor and listen to the Glow, Pt. 2 by the Microphones someday. It’s an incredibly dense album that many, myself included, were so overwhelmed by that it took multiple listening experiences to even pin down. There’s nothing else like it. Would love to see a review someday.
6:41
I’m speaking as someone who has The Smiths as my number one favorite band of all time now.
In addition to Morrissey’s voice, the band’s lyrics connected with me during some of the darkest and loneliest times of my life. I was going through a major heartbreak last year and songs like “I Know It’s Over” and “Unloveable” hit so close to home with me, it felt like I had wrote them. And other songs still hit me now like “That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore” or “Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want.”
I say all this because I feel like the biggest appeal to The Smiths at least for me is how down to earth and sincere their lyrics are to the point where you feel like you could have been the one to write them.
In keeping with the theme of this video I'd love to see your top 100 albums of all time. That's a fucking project right there. Make it so.
Hey Jon, I saw that you skipped a couple records like “Acabou Chorare” and “A Tabua De Esmeralda”. As a brazilian fan of your work, I trully think you should give it a try. Those are some of the greatest records we have in our culture, and would be a great start of you want to expand you knowledge. Cheers🇧🇷🙌🏼
Also, “Sobrevivendo No Inferno” is a conceptual rap masterpiece. It’s the brazilian bible for the streets. That record is even studied at schools nowadays because of how impactful and honest it was and still is. Is worth a try and some research.
The Glow Pt2 may take a while to really “get” (it did for me at least) but I find I appreciate it more every time I listen to it. Beautiful in its subtlety and pure rawness.
The Moon is a masterpiece
@@jerrycoffey2234 cheers to that brother
i've been trying that album for so many nights now waiting for it to finally click with me, i know it will happen, just don't know when
I remember you saying that you hadn’t heard any of the albums in the low 90s, and I highly recommend the Sweet Trip album Velocity : Design : Comfort
totally agree. I listened to it for the first time this year and it's truly magnificent. Not to mention waaay ahead of its time with its glitchy production.
Sweet Trip's Velocity:Design:Comfort (#88) is definitely worth listening to if you like Aphex Twin or mbv
Omg Jon yes you do need to listen to Long Season straight away. It's such a treat
Listened, what a journey!!
@@BeyondARTV I love it even more live on Otokotachi no Wakare!!
Dude you absolutely GOTTA listen to The Glow Pt. 2. A lot of people release it closely to In The Aeroplane Over the Sea but I feel like it's a completely different beast. It's my favorite album of all time and idk I just think it's an experience and I feel like you might appreciate it
John you should do a ranked and top 10 songs of my bloody valentine. They’re apparently coming out with some new stuff in 2022 and there’s been a recent surge in shoegaze’s popularity and it’d be really cool to hear your opinion on them. They’re my second favorite band ever behind QotSA
He's definitely said before he's a fan of MBV
Was not expecting to see Wish You Were Here ranking that high above Dark Side of the Moon but it's very much welcomed.
Why doesnt he acknowledge Madvillainy 😭😭😭
Your commentary is vivid as always. I`ve got a good coffee in my left hand. Both things help me to enjoy this
list. I like it, but i don`t understand why the hype around Bowie is that strong, that they were putting him so
often on this list. But
this is just me. The list is inspiring.
I think this list sort of has a bias against the early 2000’s. Excusing rap and the very heralded stuff like Kid A. To not have Death Cab or hardly any of that era indie is a mistake imo.
Also I love that you call us neighbor at the start of the video. It makes me feel like a white dad in the suburbs. In a good way I mean
I disagree. When there’s many like Late Registratoon, Glow Pt 2, Velocity Design Comfort, Kid A, Vespertine, Funeral, Madvillainy, etc
I think you may have misread my comment: I think there needs to be more 2000’s like that on the list. You even listed Kid A which i already wrote haha
Definitely check out Marquee Moon by Television! One of my all-time favourites that I was lucky to see played in full live in 2016. Haha they may have been old but they killed it!
Please listen and review hounds of Love Kate bush it's another epic masterpiece of art rock highly recommend it
I love these videos
also, crazy how BCNR managed to get such a high position, one of the very few albuns in the last 5 years to get into the list, and it totally deserves it, this album is a complete masterpiece that will be remembered for generations I hope
The smith's praise comes by way of Johnny Marr, unique, tasteful, emotive , great guitarist.
Ask Radiohead who their greatest influence is...The Smiths. Amazing band - flawless guitars; exceptional poetry.
6:26 glad to see alive 2007 here. It was my favorite album for a while until i listened to Justice’s woman worldwide which is a very similar album
did you just skipped Madvillainy?
I’d probably put Melon Collie & the Infinite Sadness along with The Colour and the Shape somewhere on this list but I can’t say I disagree with hardly any of the placements here.
Björk is a fricking legend
Finally a critic that knows the Smiths are bloody awful.
The Glow, Pt. 2 and Long Season Are Must Listens.
I'm not even the biggest fan of neither of those bands but I can't believe this guy never heard of them😂
those 2 albums are all over the internet!
It hurts me that you skipped Deathconciousness on the list. Fantastic shoegaze/post-rock blemd
It's so satisfying hearing someone else being confused why The Smiths is always so praised.
I don't like these kind of lists because they do feel very pretentious and always seem to favor certain bands. Radiohead, Floyd, Beatles, Bowie, Kanye and Kendrick for example always seem to be included. There's always classic rock, prog, new wave, art rock, indie and hip hop but they seem to pretty much leave out hard rock, punk and metal, and the only type of alternative rock is that super artsy stuff. For once i would like to see a band like Jane's Addiction, Deftones, Pantera or Soundgarden on one of these lists, just examples from the top of my head...
as usual pop and dance music is ignored too
I get what you mean. Despite this being a voting done by an online community, this is a "critic's darlings" list - and most of these lists are. I am just lucky that I really, really like stuff like that, so I basically agree . But it is ofc highly subjective.
Those bands you mentioned has extremely high ratings in aoty, their best albums are above 80 in user ratings.
smiths are pretty great
As a Radiohead fan, seeing their best three albums all in the top 5 is just so satisfying to me.
A lot of the Brazilian albums that came up on this list are phenomenal. The must-listen for me is Construção by Chico Buarque. I’m surprised most music nerds don’t know about it, it’s one of my favorites!
My personal top 10 (at least for now):
1. Gorillaz- Plastic beach
2. Kendrick Lamar- To pimp a butterfly
3. Devin Townsend project- Deconstruction
4. Mastodon- Crack the Skye
5. Kanye West- The life of Pablo
6. The Beatles- White album
7. Genesis- Foxtrot
8. Frank Zappa- Hot rats
9. Death grips- The money store
10. Betwwen the buried and me- Parallax II
Kind of disappointed you didn’t touch on Donuts- greatest instrumental hip hop album of all time with some of the greatest sample flips ever. If you haven’t listened it is an absolutely perfect record imo.
I am impressed that they picked Black Saint and the Sinner Lady from Mingus. Not his most accessible album, but I consider it his best.
This list is actually pretty decent lol
Why bad edit making NO mention of
"Hounds Of Love"
Kate Bush???
Due to my own personal musical tastes I haven't heard most of these albums. I do agree with what I have heard from this list though. I will say I'm not a huge hip hop fan but The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest is incredible.
DEFINITELY listen to the Avalanches comeback! We Will Always Love You is one of my all time favourites
Damn, you should finally give a shot to the #3 album here *madvillainy*
Also do absolutely check out *long season*
I checked out Long Season! That was a journey!! I dig.
@@BeyondARTV Check out Madvillainy too, great album.
@@stephenpaules3543 Bro he is ignoring it so hard. I think he hates it
Black Country, New Road has me thrilled, but not so much for the records they already put out (they're ofc quite good), but because of the ones they arguably will produce in the future. I think they are still not at the high point of their focus and succintness, but they will get there.
If you're insinuating anything negative about Isaac Wood I will have your head
@@man4437 Not at all, his vocals are an impactful layer and add to the over-all songs. My critique is this: On their first record they are all over the place, combining noise, klezmer, jazz stuff and post-punk/post-rock (interesting, but quite demanding), while their 2nd record is more homogenous, but very pop-music-adjacent. I just hope they go back to where they were with their 1st album, but try to reduce it down to certain aspects and then turn them into perfection, otherwise I can respect them, but then, they will just be Arcade Fire 2, which is not my style. Hope my ramblings were somewhat coherent.
Jon. You’re right in your prediction. You must hear Fishmans- Long Season immediately.
Also, you jumped right over Songs In The Key Of Life, one of the greatest collections of songs and sounds that will ever be. A must hear if you haven’t.
Being a fan of Deftones, Chvrches, the Cure and Poppy, I'm honestly SHOCKED that you are not a fan of the Smiths! Not even Half a Person or How Soon is Now?? (those two are bangers usually even to non-Smiths fans.)
Johnny Marr is incredible! Him in Modest Mouse slaps! And despite his attempts to be vile, Morrissey's goth-style lyrics are extremely universally relatable.
All of their albums should be in the top 100
I love hearing Jon pronounce Denis Villeneuve
Novos Baianos on the list! You should listen to them... As a brazilian, I am very proud of this band.
Homogenic is amazing you need to hear!
7:15 OMG! I'D LOVE TO SEE THAT!
The best album of all time is the black parade, damnit Jon we agree on something for once
Also speaking of albums, I know you’re not really a skillet fan but what do you think of collide, comatose and awake?
OK Computer and To Pimp A Butterfly are both in my Top 10 favorite albums(with TPAB as my 2nd favorite album of all time.) Great job AOTY
What’s ur fav
@@ldhdjzjjaklzjdbd6610 Hybrid Theory is my favorite album of all time, 2nd is TPAB, 3rd is Meteora, 4th is Science Fiction and 5th is OK Computer
@@musicworld-dh4iq interesting, u like linkin park quite a bit
@@ldhdjzjjaklzjdbd6610 yeah, they're my favorite band!
You can tell which albums the hipsters think they should be listening as opposed to the ones they actually like.
While we’re on the topic of Resident Evil. I’m wondering what you thought of the latest one.
Game or movie? Game I really enjoyed for the part (Village) movie I haven't bothered seeing lol
@@BeyondARTV I was referring to Village. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Maybe I should check it out sometime.
Sad The Strokes Is This It wasn’t on there as it’s usually in lists like this
You skipped over Nick Drake :o
Not to be too nit picky, but “Deni Villeneuve” is pronounced “De-nee Vill-noov” 😅
What do you think about korn?
No Michael, no Madonna, No Sly and The Family Stone?
the smiths are the greatest band ever. best way to realise this is to have a good cry at 2am with how soon is now? on repeat.
Minecraft has an amazing soundtrack. Volume beta is one of my fav albums
Lost Highway and The Crow also have superb soundtracks.
I've never liked Minecraft at all but I recently got the Minecraft DLC for Smash Ultimate for my brother's birthday, and the tracks included are pretty good.
AOTY is a great site tbh
Bro listen to the glow part 2. It's so good
Surprised to see some Brazilian records there, maybe it's a sign John should listen to some MPB? Also, Sobrevivendo no Inferno by Racionais Mc's is a GREAT rap album!
I'd like to shine a light on some Beach Boys albums that came after Pet Sounds, but are kind of forgotten:
Wild Honey, an amazing Soul-influenced record
Sunflower, the album that kind of invented Dream Pop with 'All I Wanna Do' and 'At My Window', which is one of the most beautiful songs ever
The Beach Boys Love You, A unique influence of punk-influenced upbeat songs and Synth-Pop-Ballads. Very bad lyrics, but an interesting insight into the mind of a mentally ill genius.
Muitos álbuns brasileiros na lista, gostei
Glad to see Godspeed on here!
fantastic album
All these game soundtracks but no FEZ? Any love for Disasterpeace out there?
Definitely give the minecraft soundtrack a chance. I doubt you’ll ever play the actual game but definitely try to play it with your friends. You might like it but if you have the music on at the background. I reckon you’ll enjoy it.
I love seeing Super Mario Galaxy and Minecraft soundtracks here, but I would probably swap their placements on the list. Both Volume Alpha and Beta just narrowly edge out SMG’s soundtrack IMO.
Is it bad that I think that Untitled Unmastered is better than TPAB? Like I know it's a TPAB b sides album, but the lyrics and the sound is just more raw, unfiltered and experimental in my opinion. I love hearing how tracks 3 and 6 were probably precursors to King Kunta and For Sale respectively. I gives me like a real insight into the craft. And track 7 with the kid's choir just floors me everytime I hear it. And this isn't mentioning how tracks 1, 2, and 5 are some of my favorites on the entire album (4 and 8 are amazing too). I just think that it's imperfections make it the perfect album for me :)
Dude.....go listen to Marquee Moon!!! Easily in my top 3 favorite 70s albums
Rumours is in my top 10 albums of all time and “The Chain” is in my top 5 songs of all time.
The way you pronounced Denis Villeneuve made me laugh, I feel bad now :(
OMG yes... Try Fishmans... Their catalogue has the best live album ever... Hope if I can see some fishmans content in future...
Dumpster fire of a list
;( sad that you skimmed over my favorite album of all time, David Bowie's Low. Great video otherwise lol.
Listen to the glow pt. 2, very very good
You gotta listen to Hounds of Love!
You skipped all the brazillian albuns, I assume because you didn't listen to them, so I'll recomend here! You should really give "clube da esquina" and "sobrevivendo no inferno" a spin, one is MPB the other hiphop, check the lyrics, they're insane all time classics that usually people stay in their "only english speaking music" bubble and miss
Some nice entries, a surfeit of Radiohead, but no Pixies, Sonic Youth, REM, Smashing Pumpkins, Depeche Mode, The Strokes, Placebo, Neil Young, Chemical Brothers, U2, Soundgarden, Beastie Boys, Blur, PJ Harvey, Massive Attack, Garbage, Beck, Stone Roses, Jane's Addiction, Pearl Jam ... Maybe in the top 120 edition.
TPAB is an absolute masterpiece but Illmatic should be higher. Gkmc was quite unexpected
Never heard a song by Kendrick Lamar!
It is a good list, but think like the imdb100, only a certain type of person will rate music online and so you get quite a bias.
