|
|
When I was a bit younger than I am now, I would say to my friends that an album I'd just heard was great or excellent. Then I once thought about what I was saying and how I reached that conclusion. I discovered that if an album had 2 of the best songs I've heard for a while, I would label the album as great. Now I apply a little more logic to it. I label an album upon how many great songs are on it. Any I don't like scores it down, sometimes to average or poor, even if it has 1 great song on it (not hard really, just common sense that I didn't have when younger)
Using that same thought process, what album for you has everything, every song is good and the album will remain as a legend in your eyes?
One of mine is - The Prodigy (Music for a jilted generation)

It'd be very hard for me to pick just one album. A few of my personal favorites are
Rage Against The Machine's Self Titled Debut
Muse - Absolution
Nirvana - Nevermind
System of a Down's Self Titled Debut |

| Judging by the album as a whole, I would say Filosofem is my favourite. |

I lost the CD of it, so I downloaded it from Amazon the other day - been listening to it over and over, I just love the organ / mellotron / keyboard whatever the heck it is Rob Collins is playing. I wouldn't say every song on it is good, but even the couple that aren't fit into the whole ambience anyway.` Love it. _________________ No one has gone missing or died.

There hasn't really been an album I am into at the moment. I think the last thing I liked in its entirety is the score of "American Beauty".
I bought Charlotte Gainsbourg's "5:55" last year and like it. But I don't listen to it very often.
Apparently, the "Finding Nemo" score is on number 4 of my Last.fm charts. ^^ 806 plays.
Last year I listened to Echo and the Bunnymen's self-titled album a lot. And earlier last year the first two Dandy Warhols albums. _________________ EXPANDED CIRCLE OF FIFTHS

Rob Collins. <3
I like that album a lot. Also, the first album. I love the organ on every track on "Some Friendly". _________________ EXPANDED CIRCLE OF FIFTHS
