Don't laugh @bishopshodan 46 and 2 is a gem and the album itself is a goddam masterpiece. I regret my hurry to post a list without sufficient reflection.

Yah, this thread has made me walk down memory lane. Haven't listen to Tool in a while.

 

I'm listening to Ministry 'In case you didn't feel like showing up' right now  haven't heard it in a while also. Lovin' it. Stigmata ending is the best!

Some terrific albums in here that I wholeheartedly agree with and listen to pretty regularly.

 

Not surprised by Rubber Soul showing up several times. I am surprised by the amount of Paul’s Boutique showing up. Surprised and pleased.

@bishopshodan @drummerboy

Really like your playlists, even though drummers lacks diversity, it looks like a great night.

Kinda feel bad for not listing Lateralus.... I'd like to trade Nofx for Tool Lateralus. 

Final answer. Sorry Mike

Agreed.  It was more a skatepunk with a sprinkle of metal list.   I’m do a top 10 what I’m listening to right now.

Pretty surprised to see not one person listed a single album by The Who.

 

Who's Next': How The Who Achieved Their Only UK No. 1 Album

 

1. "Baba O'Riley"  
2. "Bargain"  
3. "Love Ain't for Keeping"  
4. "My Wife"  
5. "The Song Is Over"  
6. "Getting in Tune"  
7. "Going Mobile"  
8. "Behind Blue Eyes"  
9.

"Won't Get Fooled Again"

 

That is an absolute monster of an album. Perhaps I should adjust my list.

Nebraska is totally different than the rest of his catalogue. Just him, an acoustic guitar, a harmonica, and an 8-track recorder holed up in a hotel. Bare bones songs, and they’re haunting.

The Bends, to me, is the perfection of the whole Brit-pop 90’s genre... ... which I was big in to at that time. It will always be special to me.

I’ll give it a listen.

I think Radiohead’s “problem” (if they even have one) is that all their albums after The Bends is essentially music no other artist is capable of bringing to the masses as successfully as they can. The Bends, while great, is an album to me that I’ve heard other artists create as well, and some better. But again, it’s a terrific album.
