Sonic Youth - [i]Daydream Nation[/i]
My Bloody Valentine - [i]Loveless[/i]
Neutral Milk Hotel - [i]In the Aeroplane Over the Sea[/i]
The Ramones - [i]Ramones[/i]

Yep, they're opening for the Dead Kennedies. Indeed, it's not that big of a deal, but it's still neat to have the chance to play with legends. Kerry King might be coming to the guitar store that I work at, too.

br3ad_man 10-22-2005 05:36 PM

That's pretty awesome. He says 'fu[color=white]c[/color]k' a lot.

Van Halen - 1984

Oasis' Be here now !!!

Rockafella 10-23-2005 08:02 PM

Dillinger Escape Plan - Miss Machine

I know I know, it's not THAT great of an album. But this was the album that not only opened the door of underground music to me but allowed me to discover a new world of amazingly talented musicians/bands that are not shown on the weekly top 40.

gatorz618 10-23-2005 09:13 PM

Incubus - Make Yourself

pikester 10-23-2005 09:22 PM

zerospace - kidney thieves

FUnkarockadrummer 10-27-2005 11:58 PM

most likely lateralus. Tool was my first concert i went for the tour of this album. This cd was probably one of the first i flogged to death but never really got sick of.

Getting into tool led me into other bands that were a lot more different from the nu metal i was listening to at the time. It was definately led me on to bigger and better things in a musical sense and opened my ears in a lot of ways. I dont listen to it much now but i still like to put it on every now and then.

Zmev 10-28-2005 03:29 AM

Velvet Underground - VU&N

Wilco - YHF

Spectrum 10-28-2005 04:40 PM

Of the albums I own and have listened to? That's still a hard one, with all those great Beatles albums floating around, and Yes' period of amazing (71-75), and all the like, but then you have masterpieces like Radiohead's [i]OK Computer[/i] and [i]Kid A[/i].

Man, it's a pretty tough fight in my mind between [i]The White Album[/i], [i]Fragile[/i], [i]Tales From Topographic Oceans[/i], [i]OKC[/i], and [i]Kid A[/i]. I think I am going to sit down and listen to all of them and get back to you guys on this.

mikeeegeee 10-29-2005 11:39 PM

ok lateralus 10-30-2005 08:36 PM

[QUOTE=Med57]Something odd happened to me the other day in that I suddenly wondered whether [i]OK Computer[/i] was really my favourite album of all time, or whether I'd just got used to thinking of it that way (I hadn't listened to the whole thing for a while). Then I put it on again and I realised that although it's not clearly above everything else like it used to be, I still can't really see anything else overtaking it anytime soon. :-\ So I'm still as hopeless a fanboy as ever.[/QUOTE]

Weird. Same exact thing happened to me with OKC. I still hold it in the same position, but the last listening experience wasnt too memorable. (I fell asleep in the middle of it)

fuzzymayo 10-30-2005 09:23 PM

What a mean question to ask:

Modest Mouse - Lonesome Crowded West, anything by the Decemberists, and Transatlanticism are close, Tool-Lateralus, Pink Floyd-Wish You Were Here are closer...but:

The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium

The music never ceases to amaze me, the story never ceases to intrigue me, and it's one of maybe 5 that I can listen to without ever getting tired of.
