br3ad_man 02-21-2005 05:01 AM

All time, in order

1. Sigur Ros - ( )
I've had this record for about 6 months now. I can always come back to it, and while I don't listen to it all the time, it's always great when I do listen to it. The songs can mean anything I want them to, and there are only two that I am unimpressed with for the most part, but I can still listen to those now and then as well.

2. Blink 182 - Blink 182
Great album, inspiration songwriting and excellent "for the track" playing. I love the vocals too.

3. Between The Buried and Me - The Silent Circus
Great metal with awesome emotional stuff mixed in.

4. M83 - Dead Cities, Red Seas and Lost Ghosts
Two dudes on keyboards make some of the most beautiful and interesting music around.

5. Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left
Great folk from the 70s, with some good string arrangements. Very emotional.

6. Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
Classic. Nuff said.

7. Public Enemy - Yo! Bum Rush The Show
In my opinion, their best album. It's influence is still being seen today.

8. Explosions In The Sky - The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place
Beautiful instrumental post-rock

9. Frank Zappa - Hot Rats
This is a new one. It's great to just sit back and kick your foot to. Plus the guitarring and vocals are completely badas[i]s[/i]

10. Queens of the Stone Age - Songs For The Deaf
Good times. That's what this album is.

Runner up: Massive Attack - Mezzanine
