My favorite music albums

London Calling

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:16:26 GMT

More than just a regular punk album. Clash manages to use many different music styles and instruments fantastically. I'm still amazed that all 19 songs are good.

Symbolic

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:17:11 GMT

My favourite album from my favourite band. Not so much death metal anymore but it still has excellent guitar riffs and solos, thought provoking lyrics and Gene Hoglan's drumming is out of this world.

Human

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:17:38 GMT

Almost as good album as Symbolic. All songs are excellent but I find little problems with production in this one. Still it's almost perfect.

Closer

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:17:47 GMT

Excellent post-punk album. This is exactly how depression sounds. It's good they added synths in this album because it makes this even more depressing.
Also the drum beats are clever and Ian Curtis is actually quite bad singer, but he is the only one really can sing these songs with his cold and out of tune-sound.
Excellent listening to me when I'm depressed myself.

Loveless

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:17:57 GMT

This may be the BEST album of all time for me. No one has ever made anything like this one. Guitar sounds are amazing.
There are much shoegaze in this world but nothing comes even close to this one. This is an album you must hear, I cannot describe it well how excellent this is.

The Velvet Underground & Nico

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:18:06 GMT

Here we have touching songs (Sunday Morning, Heroin), excellent and catchy rock (Run Run Run, I'm waiting for the man) and guest-star Nico's perfectly performed songs (Femme Fatale, All Tomorrow's Parties, I'll be your mirror).
Whole album is actually kind madness all the time with VERY provoking lyrics about sex and drugs and it isn't even an easy album to listen. Whole album sounds so jagged and unclean but that is why this is a masterpiece.

Remain in Light

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:18:20 GMT

Funny and funky music with David Byrne's maniac-sounding voice. Excellent fast and slow songs.

Paysage d'Hiver

This traps you in the hell for over 50 minutes. Very depressing stuff and perfect record for ruining your day :)

Unquestionable Presence

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:18:27 GMT

Kind of underrated album and band in my opinion. Very technical death metal with excellent song structures and time signatures. It sounds like a chaos but it never gets out of the hand. Lyrics are excellent also.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:18:45 GMT

The Beatles' magnum opus is as good album than it has been said. So simple music but songs have been made so well with excellent instrumentation that you cannot dislike this one.

Revolver

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:19:07 GMT

Same as above, simple songs but they are played well.

Magical Mystery Tour

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:18:53 GMT

Underrated album in Beatles' catalogue. Sgt. Pepper's "sister album" which is exactly as good as Sgt. Pepper.

Low

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:19:19 GMT

Bowie's best. First half consists of catchy pop songs and the other half consits of ambient tracks. Although I like ambient songs too, I still wished the whole album was made like the first half. It still is an excellent album.

Hvis Lyset Tar Oss

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:19:29 GMT

I remember when I was listening to this with my iPod and I was walking outside in cold and dark autumn evening. It was one of the most horryfying moments in my life maybe. This album really gets you distressed but I actually like to get "bad" feelings from music too.

OK Computer

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:21:12 GMT

All has been said about this one. All I can say is that it's an excellent album. I like Electioneering-song very very much.

Kid A

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:21:17 GMT

To me this is even better album than OK Computer. It's excellent avant-garde with many great moments. I remember how surprised I was when I first time heard the trumpets (or what horn they were)in "The National Anthem".

Individual Thought Patterns

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:19:38 GMT

Maybe the most technical Death-album. The bass sound here is amazing.

The Man-Machine

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:20:46 GMT

Catchy and minimalistic electronic music. It's an easy album to listen to even the first time you hear it, but it never loses it's charm.

Leprosy

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:19:43 GMT

Brutal death metal this time. Drum sounds are awful but you get used to it and songs are pure gold like always in Death's albums.

Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:19:53 GMT

Black Metal with synths but it never gets too cheesy or commercial-like music in my opinion. I prefer to listen to this one in cold winter evenings more than any other albums.

What's Going On

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:20:02 GMT

The lyrics are quite naive but they come straight from the heart so you got pay some respect for them. Really touching soul album.

In the Court of the Crimson King

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:20:11 GMT

Progressive rock classic. You cannot listen to this one many times in a year, but when you can, it's excellent. Even the ending of Moonchild fits well on this album.

Red

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:20:16 GMT

I actually like this more than Crimson's debut. Starless is maybe the band's best song.

Music from the Motion Picture "Purple Rain"

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:20:28 GMT

I don't like the title track very much but the other songs are catchy. Let's go crazy is one of the world's best songs to listen to when it's summer.

The Dark Side of the Moon

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:20:22 GMT

Actually very easy album to listen to and that is why I like this Floyd album. Time is one of the best songs ever.

It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:20:59 GMT

Favourite Public Enemy album. Lyrics are excellent filled with attitude. I like beats and Flavor Flav is excellent in this album.

The Queen Is Dead

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:21:29 GMT

Album filled with catchy pop songs. Morissey's voice is odd but he manages to use it so perfectly I consider Morissey actually very good vocalist.

Goo

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:21:33 GMT

Many Sonic Youth-fans seems to dislike this a lot because there aren't much noise and guitars sound normal and it's too mainstream-sounding. That's the reason I actually like this a lot maybe.

Daydream Nation

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:21:41 GMT

Though I like Goo the best Sonic Youth album, this is pretty good also. Songs are excellent and noise sections fit quite well in "Silver Rocket" and "Total trash" songs

Rain Dogs

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 10:21:54 GMT

Many minimalistic and short songs singed by one-of-kind singer: Tom Waits. What else can you wish for?
