Captain Hollywood Project. -P |

I haven't listened to it in a while, but Peter Gabriel's Passion is the very best imo... it works for any mood, any feelings, any situation... it's good for background, or concentration... I love it to death!!! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Endtroducing....definitely.. |
||||||||
|
|

for me: Bjork - Homogenic First I only liked a few songs on it, (Pluto even scared me,I didn't dare to listen to that) but I learnt to apreciate this album,and now,I love every single song on it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Abbey Road by the Beatles is pretty much pefect... if it wasn't for Maxwell's Silver Hammer (which I like, but it isn't good ENOUGH), there would be no flaws. |
||||||||

The Downward Spiral - NIN I still listen to that album non stop. |
||||||||
|
|

sorry one more thing...this is my thought U2-achtung baby |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
AARGH GET THE WORD U2 AWAY FROM ME!!! ARGH!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey man,,,,,screw you! if your girlfriend broke up with you while listening to U2 brings back memorize then hey......she picked a good band. C'mon U2 is a great band. |
||||||||
|
|

|
Orbital-In-Sides |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
U2's Pop was pretty dope. As was Passengers. Ok Computer is the best album ever made |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ok computer is great.....Amensiac just does it for me even better. As for Pop yeah its good but not their best. that was a more fun cd. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's pretty cool. You're the first person besides my friends who seems to really like Amnesiac. Most people just overlook as "Kid B" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Autechre EP7 OR Mobb Deep The Infamous OR Nirvana Nevermind OR Metallica Master of Puppets |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hah, i'd never have U2 in my proximity, I hate them, well not hate, but generally loathe Radiohead on the otherhand, I agree OK Computer is amazing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well youre not the first to loathe the only band I've been to 3 concerts too but at least you like Radiohead. As for Shibumi( nice name) thanks for the acknowlegment, as for Kid B is that like a private joke between friends?? |

Carl Cox Mixed Live - ok, its a mix, but its great.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love U2... I think they're great... Actung Baby is excellent, Zooropa is really good, but a bit inconsistent I think... Pop is another excellent one!!! I think Pop is cool... they mix rock with clubby dance music... I dunno, I like it... their new album is pretty lame, every song just about has been worn out on the radio... I haven't heard Passengers, but I really should search it out and get it... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree with b3n - u2 are possibly the worst most contrived try to hard to be original band in the worl d - dreadful - they always sound fake whatever they do |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I somewhat disagree with you astrid-gil-botn. Their pre-Actung Baby music was quite good and very original for it's time. They were a band with a purpose...very political. After that though, they did what so many bands have done. They turn to POP shit and tend to go away. Just look at Metallica. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think their newest album is pop crap... decent pop I guess, but still pure pop... I think that Achtung Baby through Pop were great albums... they were radio friendly, sure, but they mixed in techno stuff with it... I quite like those albums actually... |
||||||||

LTJ Bukem > Logical Progression . nicest D&B album ever I agree Abbey Road is great for an oldie :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there always seems to be at least one song that fucks up an otherwise perfect album, but I think I can name a few pixies - surfer rosa birthday party - junkyard sonic youth - daydream nation brian eno - on land cocteau twins - treasure labradford - mi media naranja |
||||||||

Herbie Hancock- "Manchild" Before this, I listened to nothing but metal/punk/ and a very little Jazz. This is the album that made me fall in love with the back beat, and to this day has the funkiest smell that I've ever wiffed.... This is of course, subjective....I think everyone has had an album that changed the way they think about music.... |

Ola Bergman-The Great Family Hotel PERFECT!!!!! Absolute perfekt electro/IDM with melodies sent down from heaven. www.newspeakrecords.com |

"OK Computer + Amnesiac=best thing ever." That is a quote from god so it must be true. |

I Care Because You Do.... |

||||||||

YES~!!!!!!! I LOVE SAWII i lost disc 2 also AHHHHHHH |
||||||||
|
|

|

lp5 would be perfect if melve and caliper remote were replaced by another incredible track. |
||||||||
|

I Care Because You Do, LP5, SAW2, Feed Me Weird Things, Claro, and Pole's CD 1 are all in the running for me, but Massive Attack's Mezzanine ultimately takes the cake. here's my criteria: 1) Adheres a certain theme or aesthetic (which can be subtle) but varies enough to keep things interesting 2) Seems to tell a story, but is vague enough that several stories could be inferred from it 2) Can be approached both analytically and as background music 3) Emotional and passionate but not to the point that I can only listen to it in very specific moods 4) Has a definite introduction and closing, so that when it's over I feel like I've been on a journey or adventure 5) Timelessness - this is very rare, I can't quite put it into words but Selected Ambient Works II achieved it overall and Drukqs and Hangable Auto Bulb did in certain parts. Something to do with not only the notes and tempo, but the quality of the sound and production. |

The League Unlimited Orchestra - Love and Dancing. The perfect pop of the Human League remixed and mega-mixed (sic) into a supreme 35 minute journey of electronic music. I was given this as a present 22 years ago and it still gets played at least once a month. Any fan of electronic music should own this album. |
||||||||

perfect albums ? it's damn near impossible not to mention radiohead's ok computer and perhaps kid a as well. other perfect albums: saw2, white album (best beatles ever). throw in some ac/dc albums for good measure :) |
||||||||
|

Closely followed by Coldcut - 70 Minutes of Madness. Absolute class, head and shoulders above any mix album by anyone. Re-released recently aswell. |
