Greatest Album ever?
 

Well, I was listening all of my music on my sexy iPod. And After I heard all of my albums, I have to say "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" was the greatest piece of work in Alternative rock, maybe even ever!

So... what's your favorite album?

(I understand it's a hard question)

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

Thats hard.. hmmm....

I really liked your selection, but I'd personally have to go with Sarah McLachlan's Mirrorball... I like live CD's like that, and she has a great voice and is a true poet in the music industry. So relaxing... good for making out....

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

I'll have to go with dark side of the moon, not only because it stayed at the #1 spot for a few years, but because it truly is, a masterpiece.

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

Right now, I like Houses of the Holy by Led Zeppelin.

My fav songs on the CD:

The Song Remains the Same
The Crung
D'yer Mak'er
The Ocean
Over The Hills and Far Away

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

"Achtung Baby" - U2

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

The Marshall Mathers LP - Eminem

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

The best zep cd by far.


Not better than (not to sound like a broken record, but....)

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

Way too hard to pick, but if I must pick one...

In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - Neutral Milk Hotel

Honorable Mentions: Soft Bulletin - The Flaming Lips, Black Foliage - The Olivia Tremor Control, and Deltron 3030 - Deltron 3030

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

Ooooh, that selection of yours deserves a big +rep. :D

This is a very hard pick to make, but I think I am going to say "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" also.

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

I wanted to add one more

Kid A - Radiohead

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

it's a tie between Daft Punk-Discovery, and the Spirited Away soundtrack(even though it's not really a music album)

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

The soundtrack is good, huh? It's one of my favorite movies, never noticed the music too much, maybe I'll watch it again and judge the music.

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

That's my choice too. :) I think every song blends together so well.

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

i think this should be in the music forum...but meh

mine would have to be the album that got me listening to rock......Queen's greatest hits

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

I'm pretty partial to the From One CD by Ra. It's a bit heavier than the stuff listed, but I was in a rut for a while and heavier music was good.

I just can't listen to Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness all the way through. It's good. I understand that. I mean, I have bought the 2-Disc set twice now (it was stolen from me the first time). And it's not a cheap album. But I really just don't think it's that good.

I really appreciate both of 3 Doors Down's real albums (not the new live CD all that much). And Norah Jones had a great first album (although, I have to say, I'm disappointed with her new one). And Lifehouse. Their first CD was great (again, really disappointed by the second).

There's just so much music I hardly know where to begin.

Re: Greatest Album ever?
 

Hmm this is a toughie. Like Really, there are so many albums and things I listen too.

Hmm... Probably I'm going to have to go with... Ta Dunh "The Aeroplane Over the Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel. I was thinking and I really can't think of a better choice.

Close followers include :
"Adore" The Smashing Pumpkins
"Donde Estan Los Ladrones?" (Where are all the thieves?) Shakira
"The Bends" Radiohead
"Clumsy" Our Lady Peace
"Beautiful Midnight" Matthew Good Band
"Counting Crows live at VH1 Storytellers"
"Jagged Little Pill" Alanis Morissette

Notes:
Kid A and all Radiohead albums after are lackluster compared to the other stuff. Not saying they aren't good, just not that great. I Think the whole of Adore is much better than Mellon Collie could ever be. Matthew Good Band is one of my favorite bands overall, check them out. They broke up, but I hear Matthew Good might be doing some solo stuff. I can only hope. And Don't joke about the Shakira. She's a genius in Spanish. English is an entirely different story.
