Therapy? is a criminally underrated band. Their sound is as simple as original, I can't think of any other band that sounds like them.They took British post-punk, American grunge, something of metal and punk rock to create their musical identity. They intend to release their 14th record in 2014. Although their last two albums have been disappointing, I can't wait to hear new songs from them. 5) Infernal Love Release Date: June 12, 1995 4) Nurse Release Date: January 12, 1993 3) One Cure Fits All Release Date: April 24, 2006 2) High Anxiety Release Date: May 20, 2003 1) Troublegum Release Date: February 7, 1994

Title: The Clash - Westway to the World Release Date: January 1, 2000 A documentary about the Clash, one of the history's most influential bands. All the band members participates in the documentary, top scenes are Topper Headon apologizing for his drug addiction and Joe Strummer almost crying when talking about the end of The Clash. It's a must watch for the band's fan. Reality: 9/10

Bad Religion is one of the bands that defines punk rock for me. Greg Graffin's lyrics always make me think, whether they're are about politics, religions or human relations. Mr. Brett also wrote some of their best and more melodic songs, like "Skyscraper". In fact, Bad Religion is a band with a rare chemistry between their members, who have been together for such a long time and still can write memorable songs. So I've decided to list their best albums which was a really complicated task. Also I've made two playlist dedicated to them on Spotify, 'best of' and 'underrated classics': 5) Suffer Release Date: September 8, 1988 4) The Gray Race Release Date: February 27, 1996 3) Against the Grain Release Date: November 23, 1990 2) Recipe for Hate Release Date: September 21, 1993                                           1) The Empire S...

Opeth is one of the best bands of the 21st century, their blend of heaviness and beauty in music is something really special. Even in Heritage, where they took a whole new musical direction, they still delivered some memorable moments. Of course Heritage couldn't make it to the Top Five. The competition was just unfair given Opeth's other albums or observations as they like to call their records. Let's go to the rank: 5) Deliverance Release Date: November 12, 2002 4) Damnation Release Date: April 22, 2003 3) Watershed Release Date: June 3, 2008 2) Blackwater Park Release Date: February 27, 2001 1) Ghost Reveries Release Date: August 30, 2005

I'm starting a new thing on the blog, the Top Five. I pick a band or a style or a subject or anything at all and rank their five best albums. To kick off the Top Five, I've chosen The Who, which is, in my humble opinion, the best band the world has ever seen. Pete Townshend was a music visionary. Hope you like Top Five! 5) Sell Out Release Date: 1967 4) The Who By Numbers Release Date: 1975 3) Tommy Release Date: 1969 2) Quadrophenia Release Date: 1973 1) Who's Next Release Date: 1971
