|
 | Warehouse Songs and Stories by Husker Du
Buy new: £7.27 / Used from: £3.99 At first every track sounded the same to me. After a couple of listens, every track sounded brilliant
|
 | Young Team by Mogwai
Buy used from: £6.13 'Like Herod' still makes me jump out of my skin even though I'm waiting for it ...
|

|
 | Split: Remastered by Groundhogs
Buy new: £4.88 / Used from: £4.45 Underrated blues rock from the early 70's - Split part 2 is a classic
|

Buy new: £6.78 / Used from: £4.79 Probably invented nice tunes on loud guitar...
|
 | The Sun Is Often Out by Longpigs
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £1.48 Absolutely stunning. Also check out 'Mobile Home' - a drunken Ziggy Startdust for the 90's
|
 | The Bends by Radiohead
Buy new: £6.68 / Used from: £2.99 'OK Computer' is probably my favourite guitar-rock album of all time, but this wins on the loud guitar front

|
![Time for the Rest of Your Life [VINYL]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41ZYPQ5QG2L._SL75_.jpg) | Time for the Rest of Your Life [VINYL] by Strangelove
Vanished in the great indie shakeout mid-nineties that saw off Longpigs et al - can't even find this on CD now, but still a genre-defining moment
|
 | Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea by PJ HARVEY
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.24 Spoiled for choice again - I love 'Is This Desire?', but the guitars win on this list
|

Buy used from: £43.88 Guitar-based funk from the other George Clinton
|
 | F# A# Oo by Godspeed You Black Emperor
Buy new: £10.98 / Used from: £6.79 I'm sure there's some loud guitar amongst the loud violins and loud cellos (and bagpipes)...
|
 | Peggy Suicide by Julian Cope
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £2.68 Julian Cope appears to have listened to some Velvet Underground...
|
 | White Light White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.95 ...Speaking of which, on 'I Heard Her Call My Name' Lou Reed appears to investigate just how out-of-it he can be while still playing guitar
|
 | The Decline of British Sea Power by British Sea Power
Buy new: £4.89 / Used from: £1.00 Just when we thought the indie guitar had died, this comes out to prove us wrong
|
 | Swagger by Blue Aeroplanes
Buy used from: £8.75 And a welcome return to these, apart from the copy control
|
 | Do Make Say Think by Do Make Say Think
Buy new: £12.69 / Used from: £19.24 Wrong photo, but this starts with 10 mins of F# minor - at last I can dispose of Wish You Were Here and its 10 minutes of G minor for tuning my guitar!

Listmania!
