Your 5 favorite albums....

Recommended Posts

First non-intro post here. In somewhat of an order:

1. "The '59 Sound" - The Gaslight Anthem

2. "Handwritten" - The Gaslight Anthem (It came out 2 weeks ago and I've probably listened to it 6 times already)

3. "Torches" - Foster the People

4. "Ocean Avenue" - Yellowcard

5. "Lost and Gone Forever" - Guster (Saw them live a few months ago and it was incredible. They're cool guys to talk to.)

Since picking just 5 is way too difficult...the runners-up include:

"Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix" (Phoenix), "(What's the Story) Morning Glory" (Oasis), "Coming to Terms" (Carolina Liar), "Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga" (Spoon), "Day & Age" (The Killers), "Franz Ferdinand" (Franz Ferdinand), "Young the Giant" (Young the Giant), "The Rock and the Tide" (Joshua Radin), "Ursa Major" (Third Eye Blind)

2. Rumpshaker - Suburban Legends (Favorite Band)

3. Turn the Radio Off - Reel Big Fish

4. A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar - Dashboard Confessional

I have also seen all of these acts live except for No Doubt, and after their new album comes out, I'm hoping they'll tour and I can rectify this :D

I was looking at this thinking "I have never heard of any off these bands", then I realised you had put the album names first and not the band name. Silly me.

I can't even choose my 5 favourite artists... no way I'll be able to decide my 5 favourite albums.

But I'll give it a try - in no particular order

#1 Muse - Absolution

#2 Seether - Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces

#3 Linkin Park - Meteora

#4 HURT - Vol I & Vol II (I'll count these as ONE album because I can't decide which to choose!)

#5 Kent - Vapen & Ammunition (Swedish band)

And also some of the famous albums/artists like Pink Floyd, NIN, CCR, Nirvana, Metallica, etc but they've been mentioned so many times already.

Ok lets see what I can come up with.

First up: Any Metallica album except St. Anger - it sounded like they were banging on tin cans. The others rotate in the favorite spot with Load and Death Magnetic #1 the most.

#2 Garth Brooks: The Hits. I am from Texas. Sue me.

#3 Godsmack IV: Especially the song Shine Down

#4 A soundtrack: Currently Firefly Sdtk, but it has been HP series, Batman series, The One, Last of the Mohican, Braveheart

#5 Pantera Cowboys from Hell. Cemetery Gates.

such an eclectic mix here, seems like the right place to ask for some recommendations. im looking for some more hip hop artists, as my range of hip hop is pitifully low. i dont really go for angry, "look at how rich i am and how many people im having sex with" stuff, im looking for artists that are more 'happy'. want to beef up the summer playlist with some good cruising tunes!

examples:

(stupid, but awesomely so)

In no particular order... and way more than 5...

Beastie Boys - Ill Communication & Check Your Head (but I really can't exclude any, to be fair. I celebrate their entire catalog.)

A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders (Low End Theory, too. Come on.)

Clutch - From Beale St. to Oblivion (Again- can do no wrong. Strange Cousins from the West and Elephant Riders... Not a bad album yet from these guys.)

A Tribe Called Quest is necessary in any hip hop fan's collection, in my opinion.

And go check out some Heiruspecs- the self titled album and A Tiger Dancing are both great.

Oh- and Del The Funky Homosapien!

I don't really listen to hip hop but I just find it awesome that you're listening to Snook haha. The only recommendations I'd have are Timbuktu (Swedish artist) and Maskinen (also a Swedish artist), but I'm not sure if you'd like them. Let me know if you want me to recommend some songs of theirs.
