Blogroll Madness: Extraneous Listing

Recent stumbles around the Internet have led me to a particularly self-centered meme for music addicts, in which one picks an album for every year of one's life. Of course, I found it on the AV Club blog but apparently it was also posted on Idolator. This exercise has proved difficult for me, since I only became culturally aware/obsessed in the past five years (and have been trying desperately to make up for it ever since.) Anyway, here's the list, and perhaps Mr. Combustible can cook one up as well. Isn't it great to think you know a little bit about music and suddenly realize that you don't at all?
