Favourite Album Of All Time

Postby Joshua Christopher » Sat Apr 02, 2005 5:15 pm

Pretty easy. What's your all-time favourite album?

Mine would be "Sea Change" by Beck. It's the saddest and most beautiful thing that I've ever heard, at the same time. I hope everyone gets to hear it. : )

One CD I never get tired of popping in is Colds Year of The Spider album. It really is an amazing album. Cure My Tragedy, Rain Song, and Black Sunday are all awesome tracks.

Oy, I have to pick just ONE?!

Hmm...well, I have always enjoyed listening to No Name Face by Lifehouse. I never get tired of their songs. Ditto for Stepping Up to the Microphone by Newsboys. Both are awesome albums with a lot of "classics"

Hm...that's difficult...but probably ONE of my most favourite albums ever would be Plain White T's "Stop" just because sentimentally it holds a lot of memories...and always makes me feel happy when I listen to it...even though I've over played it...a lot.

At present, it's both discs of Metallica's "S & M". Orchestral metal...it doesn't get much better than that.

Hmmm...
Mortal... the "Fathom" album. Beyond good, beyond great, in the realm of simply brilliant...

Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison (LIVE)

There are few things I dislike more than country music which why I still wonder why I love Johnny Cash. From Gospel Music to some pretty violent songs (for its time, that is). Still Cash's unique voice and the great music (along with its setting) makes this a memorable album.

That's tough...Blindside's self-titled is probably it, though. That, or Five Iron Frenzy's "Our Newest Album Ever".

For orchestral metal, have you ever tried Rhapsody, Nightwish, or Blind Guardian?

It's incredibly difficult for me to choose one album for this. I suppose that one safe choice would be Black Label Society's album 1919 Eternal. Or maybe Nightwish's album Once......gah! See? I can't do it.

If soundtracks count as albums, definately "FLCL OST Volume One: Addict". I mean, it's all by the same people, so it kind of counts. I literally could listen to it every day for weeks on end.
Think happy thoughts.

Oh, SO many possibilities, but I'd have to say that my number one fave is Revolver by The Beatles

Dead Poetic - Four Wall Blackmail, and New Medicines.
MxPx - Let It Happen

Oh, I love you. *glomps*
and did you know that...I think it was George Harrison...said that Revolver is like part II of Rubber Soul? Truly two of the best albums of all time.

I shall note all of the above for future perusal. Thanks guys!

My favorite is Transistor by 311. I like early 311 more than their recent offerings.
