I'll do Elephant by The White Stripes.
This is going to be difficult:

1. Black Math
2. Girl, You Have No Faith In Medicine
3. Seven Nation Army
4. The Hardest Button To Button
5. Hypnotize
6. Little Acorns
7. Ball and Biscuit
8. In The Cold, Cold Night
9. There's No Home For You Here
10. I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself
11. The Air Near My Fingers
12. I Want To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mother's Heart
13. It's True That We Love One Another
14. You've Got Her In Your Pocket

Nice. My ranking might be quite the same.

I just can't resist:

Radiohead - Kid A:

In Limbo - 10
Motion picture soundtrack - 10
Idioteque - 10
The national anthem - 9 (the last 30 seconds are amazing, it's a 10)
Treefingers - 9
Kid A - 9
Everything in it's right place - 9
How to disappear completely - 8
Optimistic - 8
Morning bell - 8

Kid A has one perfect song, two really good ones, and a bunch of passable fluff filling it out.

Also, I love blaspheming.

I'm gonna do "This Year's Model" by Elvis Costello - by far his best (and most fun) end-to-end album.

1. Pump It Up (10)
2. This Year's Girl (10)
3. Radio, Radio (!0)
4. Hand In Hand (10)
5. No Action (10)
6. Lipstick Vogue (9)
7. The Beat (9)
8. I Don't Want to (Go to Chelsea) (8)
9. Little Triggers (8)
10. You Belong to Me (8)
11. Lip Service (8)
12. Night Rally (6)

And why not Ryan Adams' excellent Gold, as well.

1. Firecracker (10)
2. Goodnight, Hollywood Blvd (10)
3. New York, New York (!0)
4. When the Stars Go Blue (10)
5. Sylvia Plath (10)
6. Answering Bell (9)
7. Nobody Girl (9)
8. La Cienega Just Smiled (9)
9. Wild Flowers (9)
10. The Rescue Blues (9)
11. Harder Now that It's Over (8)
12. Touch, Feel and Lose (8)
13. Gonna Make You Love Me More (7)
14. Somehow, Someday (7)
15. Tina Toledo's Street Walking Blues (7)
16. Enemy Fire (6)

I wouldn't say it's my favorite Radiohead song or my favorite song on Kid A, but I think it kicks some undeniable ass.

Nas - Illmatic

1. Memory Lane (Sittin' In Da Park)
2. The World Is Yours
3. N.Y. State Of Mind
4. Represent
5. One Love
6. It Ain't Hard To Tell
7. Halftime
8. Life's A Bitch
9. One Time 4 Your Mind
10. The Genesis

I'm going to try Yo La Tengo, I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One:

1) Autumn Sweater
2) We're An American Band
3) Damage
4) Stockholm Syndrome
5) Deeper into Movies
6) Center of Gravity
7) Shadows
8) Sugarcube
9) Moby Octopad
10) Green Arrow
11) Return to Hot Chicken
12) My Little Corner of the World
13) One PM Again
14) Little Honda
15) The Lie and How We Told It
16) Spec Bebop

Hrmmmm.

Just since most people here probably know it I'll do LCD Soundsystem's "Sound of Silver"

Original choice, I know. But it hasn't been done yet.

1. All My Friends
2. Time to Get Away
3. North American Scum
4. Watch the Tapes
5. Get Innocuous
6. New York I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down
7. Someone Great
8. Sound of Silver
9. Us V. Them

"Watch The Tapes" is better than "Someone Great" and "New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down"? Ballsy.

I would have put "My body is a Cage" and "Ocean of Noise" much higher, myself...anyway, welcome to the forums!

I completely agree with Antichrist Television Blues as the best song on that album, and my list would look a lot like that.
