FO SHO. Jungle was so fresh and grimy when hiphop was shifting from the gritty basement bangers to get pretty, poppy & clubby.
That '95-98 niche window of music is extra fascinating to me, in retrospect. Also Astrogirl is one of my all time fav logos :love:

So, two categories for me:
1) Three albums that shaped me when I was like 10-12 years old and blew my world up
2) Three albums as an adult that have spoken to my inspiration for making music

Youth:
"Cheshire Cat" - Blink 182
"Dookie" - Green Day
Weezer's Blue album

Adult:
"Who Will Survive and What Will Be Left of Them" - Murder by Death
"Those Who Tell the Truth" - Explosions in the Sky
"Forse 2" - Alessandro Cortini (really the Forse series of albums but this one in particular)

So many great lists!
I am an evolving organism ergo constantly being shaped. I had a hard time picking 100...let alone 3. We used to make these on /mu/ back in the day. Don't know if people still do, haven't been there in years. These are all albums I revisit constantly (you will see some newer ones there).

I thought about posted 5 or 6 that I am enjoying a lot now and thinking about constantly. May do that next.
NOTE: I don't think this chart even scratches the surface. While editing I didn't include a single VENETIAN SNARES album (I could easily list like 6 of those). NOTE: I cheated and listed more than a few compilations. NOTE: Please excuse the labeling. No such thing as a 'second tier'.
