O perfil @Discographies do Twitter está se tornando um viral para os fãs de música. Seguindo a ideia de resumir grandes obras em apenas 140 caracteres, os caras fazem uma pequena descrição de toda a obra dos artistas de forma irreverente e muitas vezes engraçadas.

Cada número representa o trabalho de forma cronológica dos músicos. Por exemplo: 1 significa o primeiro álbum, 2 o segundo, e assim sucessivamente.

Selecionei abaixo alguns dos tweets mais interessantes de resumos de bandas/artistas. Está em inglês:
