Favorite Albums of All Time
1Eyedea & Abilities
By the Throat


Intelligent, emotional, and unique - its everything you could want from an album. From Eyedea's genius lyricism to Abilities' instrumental ferocity, this album grabs you (by the throat lol) and doesn't let you go till the end. you've probably heard other bands attempt a rap/rock fusion before (RATM, Beastie Boys etc.) but trust me - you've never heard this.
2At the Drive-In
Relationship of Command


What can be said about this album that hasn't already been said? Its a classic and a must have.
3Fear Before
The Always Open Mouth


Another modern post hardcore classic. With this album FBTMOF takes the experimentation to an almost "Radiohead-esque" level. Also contains one of my favorite songs of all time, My (F***king) Deer Hunter.
4Battles
Gloss Drop


This album is just pure fun. The sharp math rock of the first album has evolved into an odd mixture of friendly pop melodies and prog rock tendencies.
5Nine Inch Nails
The Downward Spiral


Dark, edgy, and gripping, this album hits all the right notes for a perfectly consistent listen. Abrasive when it has to be and beautiful when it wants to be.
6Pixies
Doolittle


It was a toss up between this and Surfer Rosa, but ultimately, this is the Pixies record I always come back to. It is emotionally resonant and extremely visceral, just as the Pixies should be.
7Radiohead
OK Computer


Narrowly beating out in Rainbows, I decided to choose this album. I, like many, believe this to be Radiohead's magnum opus. The band crafted a beautiful record that touches on themes we are all familiar with (fear, paranoia etc) and combines them with a great blend of electronic and rock instrumentation.
8Deftones
Saturday Night Wrist


Most people would put White Pony, SNW has always been my favorite Deftones record
9The Blood Brothers
...Burn, Piano Island, Burn


Insane. That's the one word i would use to describe it. The band's manic approach to post hardcore perfectly capitalized on the sound that Refused and At the Drive In had created.
10Thrice
Vheissu


A brilliant portrayal of how to experiment with your sound as a band. Thrice really out did themselves.
