| Albums with essential vocals and/or lyrics
A list of albums which I consider to have indispensable vocals and/or lyrics.
The description below is my opinion on each one, respectively. | | 1 |  | Linkin Park
Hybrid Theory
The album that started it all for me.. Its pain originated lyrics and vocal performance converge perfectly together. The mixing is also flawless but that goes somewhat beside the point of this list. | | 2 |  | Mount Eerie
A Crow Looked At Me
Emotionally devastating. While usually journal/diary lyrics don't resist the test of time, this one manages to push meaning into the words it portrays. This album is so viscerally intense, it hurts. | | 3 |  | Daughters
You Won't Get What You Want
Probably my favorite type of writing lyrics. Picking vocals with substance over objectiveness, as the interpreted imagery of tormented souls invade the realization of perceiving the current events as a frustrating prisoner inside an inescapable body in a mad world full of ominous boarded windows aural lyrics. A Borderline masterpiece (yeah). | | 4 |  | Pig Destroyer
Prowler in the Yard
This whole album is very cinematic. The vocals work as chainsaws and the dark beautiful lyrics like a midnight sky with an enticing and addictive toxic air of melodic madness, merges into a perfectly shattered glass in this whole horrifying unsettling bloody canvas. | | 5 |  | Radiohead
Kid A
A very complex album, and intrinsically full of meaning. A dissociation-inducing experience from start to finish. The lyrics form very precise arrows of luminescence through the whole musical blind fog of alienation panic, where vocals serve to depict resignated cries for help echoed in a fabricated scenario of unknown simulated reality. I can't explain any better, sorry. | |
Trebor.

06.13.22 | albums where the vocals only vibrate at the fundamental frequency of the room they were recorded in, causing the walls to go MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM | JKing92
06.13.22 | YoYo, would you say that Michael Jackson - Thriller falls under this category? | parksungjoon

lol good one fr | YoYoMancuso
06.13.22 | YoYo, would you say that Michael Jackson - Thriller falls under this category?
Nah the walls on that album sound more like
S H A M O N E - A H | JKing92
06.13.22 | Well, in both cases, the walls would be starting something. | lifetheory
06.13.22 | I have no idea what you're all talking about, but thank you for not bashing my pretentious writing, even if I really deserved it this time..
I couldn't find a better word than "fundamental" and it already took me around an hour to arrange the title, lol, OCD stuff. | parksungjoon
06.13.22 | you're welcome buddy | InfernalDeity
06.13.22 | I think the word you're looking for is "essential" | lifetheory
06.14.22 | InfernalDeity: I thought about using that word, but it kind of gave me the feeling that I was saying these albums would be bad without them (since they'd be essential), which is mostly untrue. Although, "fundamental" is also very similar in meaning.. | lifetheory
06.14.22 | *[title perfectioning] - (After suggestion from user: "InfernalDeity", I decided to change the title "Albums with fundamental vocals and/or lyrics" to "Albums with essential vocals and/or lyrics") |
