I know everyone is going to disagree with me on this, but
for some reason I think 311s album "transistor" is the best.
Now the floodgates of hatemail have been opened...

Tiamat - a deeper kind of slumber is a great album. tiamat
is actually a metalband but that record was something else.
i really recomend it for you who are into pink floyd. its a
depressive piece.

trent's a genius... :)

i still prefer the fragile because it reminds me of good
memories, and because it's a bit more varied... i love the
way somewhat damaged, the day the world went away and the
frail express hate and frustration then fading away to let
place to a kind of resignation and peace, with a bit
sadness... my fav NIN songs are still ruiner and the
becoming, but i think the fragile is as much a masterpiece
as the downward spiral...

although the downward spiral is deeper and is a concept-CD,
which the fragile isn't...
