This is kind of a spinoff from my top movies thread that ultimately ended up failing, but I learned what works and what doesn't so the process will be different and hopefully more successful this time.
I thought this would be pretty interesting to 1) get a general idea of the Facepunch community's music tastes and 2) serve as a simple reference to look at if you want to ask Facepunch for music recommendations
[release][h2]How this works:[/h2]
Post an album to nominate it in a format similar to this
[quote][IMG]http://puu.sh/6fZk[/IMG]
[B]Album[/B] by Band[/quote]
Then once it gets 5 agrees it'll be added to a Google Forms list for future voting. Unlike the movies thread, negative ratings mean nothing and amount of agrees past 5 don't matter at all.
After a week or so of nominations (depending on how many there are) I'll put up the Google Forms page for about week and then count up the results. Depending on how many albums are nominated I'm thinking the list will either be a Top 105 or Top 205 (Top 100/200 + 5 "Hall of Fame" albums that get the most votes). Then I'll probably just rip off the cover grid format 4chan uses for album lists since it seems to be the most effecient system.[/release]
[release][h2]Rules (READ THIS BEFORE POSTING)[/h2]
-[B]ONLY ONE ALBUM NOMINATION PER POST![/B]
-No compilations like "Greatest Hits". Live or Unplugged albums are OK.
-Soundtracks are OK as long as they're OSTs
-EPs, mixtapes, etc. are also OK
-You can nominate as many albums per artist as you want, but only the top two albums chosen from that artist will get added to the list to promote a more diverse list of artists. For example, if album A, B, and C by a certain artist are nominated then all will be put in the Google Form selection but if say A, B, and C get 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place respectively then C will be omitted from the list.[/release]

One of the albums that got me into hip-hop. I love those guys.
Looking at OP's picture, I wish we had record stores like that down here, I saw one that was purely records when I was in Washington DC, it was awesome. Best record we place that I know of down here is a damn FYE in the mall...
Nominating a recent favourite of mine.
