I was sorta surprised to see Adele on that list. Weird.
I still think most bands worth a damn puts out more than one "great" record and usually they're back to back. And my point was suggesting that a lot of times it's more than one. You can take your pick.
Why would you be suprised by Adele. She has sold 35 million albums between the two. That is a good sign that a lot of people think they are great albums. You would be more likely to question Husker Du who never had an album in the top 100 and weren't popular in the punk/hardcore scene back in the day.
God you're naive. I feel sorry for you.

fuckin a atomic when you going to get it that sales do not equal quality? stop being such a low level troll and amp up your game.
the new kids on the block sold a trillion records.. i guess you think they're quality too?
You are being stupid for calling me a troll. My point is why would you be suprised that someone like albums that are almost universally loved? It is like saying you are surprised that someone think Michael Jackson's Thriller is a great album. Husker Du were loved by the critics and still didn't sell any records and plus they haven't done anything in 30 years.
I am sure if you talked to some women on their thirties they would have good things to say about New Kids on the Block and a vast majority would prefer them over Husker Du. Popularity is the only measurable argument you can make for something being better. The other things are just your opinions and aren't shared by many other people.
I am not arguing that it is wrong to think Husker Du's albums are great it is just an opinion you won't find many people agreeing with.
