Hideous that Bnob Dieln occupies the top spot, cringe af at this listing. Kate, Bowie, Moz, Lou, and Ian are the only saving face of an otherwise despicable lazy list

Having Bob number one spot and Cohen on this list is definitely a tell

Agreed but lets not pretend like their best and most boundary pushing moments werent written primarily by Cale
And Metal Machine Music, while good, becomes far less impressive when you discover what Cale was doing this whole time pre-TVU. It's practically Reed covering Cale
