Broadening my music tastes

[Herr Tubthumper]

I was thinking about putting Favourite Worst Nightmare in there, by far their best album.

Interesting. I only started liking them upon this album. Whilst I appreciate the talent of the first albumn it was not my cup of tea. I thought I was on my own with this. I will not say Favourite is their best though; I think the current album is.

And Exile was generally panned when it first came out. It's funny how things turn out.

 

[Mellotron]

The Listening - The Listening LP (think a modern version of Pink Floyd mixed with middle era Radiohead)
David Bowie - Low
Arcade Fire - Funeral

As were Raw Power, White Light/White Heat & Dub Housing, 3 that would have made my top 20.

Really? I think their new album is their 3rd best. For me it goes 2nd, 1st, 5th, 3rd and then the 4th. The 5th definitely revived them though, the fourth was a travesty.

Paul's Boutique is another. The general view I and many had when it came out was wtf have they done? Generally seen as a classic now.

London Grammar and Disclosure are the two musical acts I'm loving ATM. I recommend if you like electric / deap house.

 

[happypig]

Lysergic Emanations by the Fuzztones
Setting Sons by the Jam
Bringing It All Back Home by Bob Dylan

Tomorrow it might be completely different (I've amazed myself that London Calling isn't in there but I've been taking a break from the Clash for a while)

 

[MACCAPACCA]

Radiohead : In Rainbows
Beach Boys : Pet Sounds
Undertones : The Undertones

 

[Bill Cassidy's tie up]

Cream Disraily Gears
Stanglers Norvis Ratticus (or whatever it was called)
Dexys In search of the young soul rebels

It's difficult to argue with any of the choices in this thread....except maybe Marillion

I was listening to Dirt on Sunday and just thought this album is just so complete . Not a bad track on it . I also agree the same with Appetite........, So today my favourite three complete albums are ;

Dirt -Alice In Chains
Dark Side of the Moon -Pink Floyd
Never Mind the Bollocks ,Here's The Sex Pistols-Sex Pistols.

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Cream Disraily Gears
Stanglers Norvis Ratticus (or whatever it was called)

Rattus Norvegicus ? Blimey, takes me back to my school days.

Sorry to hijack a thread briefly, but this is incredible and hopefully of interest to the muso contingent on NSC...

In Rainbows was very close for me but i just think the live in basement recording of The King of Limbs is just brilliant.

This is my favourite selection on page 1 of this thread.
Exile on Main Street really is a stand-out album, and might just make my top three
Radiohead would make my top three bands, but probably not top three artists (which includes solo artists), although I'm really not sure I could identify a favourite album
I like Aphex Twin, but not as much as you

Glad you liked it, it's an eclectic mix.
