The Tuesday DiScussion: What are your six best albums of the last six years?
The Tuesday DiScussion: What are your six best albums of the last six years?
crablin by Colin Roberts September 26th, 2006

The most impossible-to-answer question of all time? No.

As we glide closer to the majestic month of October, we find ourselves drawing ever-nearer to what those who inhabit the DiSopolis would call 'DiS is Six'.

Yes, correct. DrownedinSound.com (you're looking at it!) turns six in October; this, you should know by now. What you may not know is that to accompany our array of gigs - look out for full details sooooon - we'll also have a good deal of birthday-related content on the site, including our top 66 albums of the past six years. Ambitious? You betcha.

Today though, we'd love to know what your top six albums of the last six have been. We invite you to scan your iTunes, flick through your vinyl and ponder over your CDs to establish the six albums that have shaped who you are today. The six records that have meant the most, forced you to dance, brought on tears and induced a smile.

So, comment below. List away and argue, please. We'd love to know the music that has influenced your lives and resulted in your being here today, perusing DiS.

The run down of our 66 albums of the past six years - those records that have been essential to the existence of DiS; those that still stir our stomachs and twist our hearts every time we hear them - will begin next week. Look out for it - it's sure to have given us headaches and sleepless nights enough to warrant digesting and discussion. As certain members of the DiS team might have been overheard saying: "It'll be mint."
