50 Albums You Should Own...


Johannas

Recommended Posts

My turn :D

 

Well i've been waiting to post a list for some time, it's a shame the last list didn't get any more comments but it was left long enough.

 

Here's the list, i was going to add a description to each album but i don't have the time to go into that much detail.

However i strongly recommend you check out the songs i suggested in the top 10 bands - (and comment!)

 

Quite alot of the bands are from here in the UK so may not be known on such a global scale, but who knows!

 

Any questions just ask, would be good to get a discussion going aswell for once.

 

[Edit: Drafted this out beforehand, with no hindsight that the formatting would be messed up. Please ignore the fail code errors :XD:

Your list seems pretty narrow in focus. If you were to recommend to someone ONLY 50 albums to own, wouldn't you want to recommend a wider variety?

 

My music taste is quite genre specific, i admit. I thought long and hard about what you said however i wouldn't be in the position to post albums on my thread if i didn't like them.

 

The albums i would recommend would be a slightly different list

 

Hell - Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Guns n Roses are all great bands - they all have some great elements to them, however i don't like them as much as the others so they're not in my list.

 

If i was to recommend albums to influence people, i would include The Beatles, The Who, Led Zep, GnR, ZZ Top, Thin Lizzy, Bee Gees. But instead my list is of my favourite albums.

Sorry - sounds a bit waffled :s

 

Fair point?

The variety comes from all the different users posting their favorite music, which tends to be genre heavy, and, in turn, giving us a broad array of music that we may have not heard before. See how that works? :)

I am going to comment on your Blink 182, since I like them quite a bit.

 

The best song on TOYPAJ is RollerCoaster.

 

And instead of Enema of the state, I very strongly reccomend the Mark, Tom, and Travis Show: The Enema Strikes Back! It is a live CD with many songs from Enema, but more fast paced and MUCH better vocals. It also has good songs from Dude Ranch and their best from Cheshire Cat, Carousel.

I have all the blink 182 albums :thumbsup:

 

The problem when recommending a song is that i could've easily recommended 5 or 6 songs on every album for the top 20. I just chose the song that i thought gave the best representation of the band for people that hadn't heard them before.

I think all the songs on TOYPAJ are awesome, in fact at college the other day everyone wore their old school uniform for charity and i listened to the whole album - took me back a bit lol

Yeah Meg and Dia have something interesting about them. Singing like no other, and cool lyrics.

 

I know alot of people in this forum like Jesu - if you do i strongly recommend Aereogramme (http://www.myspace.com/aereogrammeofficial) and Prego (http://www.myspace.com/pregomusic) They are slightly less heavy but equally as interesting.

It seems like people have lost interest in these posts? Or maybe people don't bother about less well known members.

 

Well, the list... I have to say that i'm not a fan of it. I remember some years back when this type of music was "in" and alot of kids listened to it, but i never did. Don't know, i just can't swing with it =)

But either way, nice work!

J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff movies

Je trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vie

Je ne me reconnais plus dans les gens

Je suis juste un cas désespérant

Et comme personne ne viendra me réclamer

Je terminerai comme un objet retrouvé

Not really as much discussion value when there's no description of any of the albums to encourage people to listen to them.
