The KLF
5/5
There are some albums on this list that make me wonder how they justify their place on the list. The White Room is not one of them. Jimmy Cauty and Bill Drummond not only created a seminal album, but also an entire genre of music. This was one of the first pieces of performance art to crossover into mainstream music, through their clever use of pop hooks and twisting the commercialisation of music into something weird, something novel and fun, but also subversive and cool. Their use of samples, beats and synths all just works - it’s easy to dismiss it as ‘just another Brit electronica album’ but that misses the fact before the KLF they didn’t really exist as they do now - this broke the mould. The hairs on my neck still stand up when I hear the start of 3AM Eternal and What Time Is Love - powerful floor filling bangers that have stood the test of time. The KLF, also know as the Timelords, the Justified Ancients of MuMu - changed the face of music forever with one album. The White Room.

5/5
Now this is an album. From the riffs on NWO, to the groove of Jesus Built My Hotrod, to the searing noise of TVII and the darkness of Scarecrow, Jourgensen and Barker created one of the most influential industrial metal albums of all time. Picking up where A Mind… left off, this album is a sonic soundscape of hard hitting beats. Often imitated - never bettered.

Bland, soulless music for middle class dinner parties where the food is varying shades of grey, and the conversation dull. Utterly pointless drivel.
