AMAZING albums you're sick of talking about

Everyone break out your 5s and 4.5s. What albums do you LOVE that get bumped on Sputnik maybe too much to a point where you basically have nothing left to say about them? Albums that are fairly new (from the last 5 years) don't count.
1Cocteau Twins
Heaven or Las Vegas


I adore Heaven or Las Vegas, but I swear I have no new notes on it that haven't been expressed 100 times.

Treasure is getting there too.
2Radiohead
In Rainbows


The entire discography except Pablo and Hail honestly has been talked to death.

Yes, even Amnesiac, King of Limbs and A Moon Shaped Pool.
3Talking Heads
Remain in Light


Duh it's a masterpiece. Yeah "The Overload" and "Seen and Not Seen" are basically the only ones people aren't gushing over. Yeah it influenced about 1,000 artists. Blah blah blah. It's a hard 5, agreed. But like I wanna talk more about anything else. Maybe the album that inspired the list.
4Massive Attack
Mezzanine


When's the last time there was an original take on this hard 5? Maybe a troll could come in and claim "Man Next Door" is the best song on the album. That hasn't happened yet.

I might still somehow have some new thoughts on Dummy, so I'll leave it off.
5Frank Zappa
Hot Rats


This man has more classics than most people have albums, bump one of those instead of Hot Rats (which is also a classic,) but how many times can I say "side A > side B" or "Willie the Pimp is so ahead of it's time" etc.
6Bjork
Vespertine


Homogenic too. Though I do have a slightly rare take that "An Echo, A Stain" is the best Bjork song ever. Is that rare?
7Kate Bush
The Dreaming


Hounds of Love probably too. "OMG I LOVE CLOUDBUSTING" same same same, but like...
8Pixies
Doolittle


Probably doesn't help that this is only my 3rd favorite Pixies album.
9Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here


unclereich is right

PsychLizard is encouraging me to include basically of Floyd's discography, but I guess mostly the 70s albums san like Obscured by Clouds
10Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin II


unclereich is right again

Though maybe Presence and In Through still have some juice in them. And I guess Coda lol
11Megadeth
Rust In Peace


TheSonomaDude picked this

Don't listen to metal, but I bet he's right
12Metallica
Master Of Puppets


TheSonomaDude picked this

Don't listen to metal, but I bet he's right. Have heard Ride the Lightning, bet that also qualifies.
13Opeth
Blackwater Park


Demon of the Fall loves Opeth and is sick of discussing them
14Portishead
Dummy


Demon of the Fall again, and okay okay maybe he's right
15Mastodon
Crack the Skye


Demon of the Fall again again and uh, sure! "Yes! A Mastodon Guitar Solo" is a good Sput meme though.
16Tool
Ænima


DoofDoof only seems to really like Ænima, but this applies to Lateralus way more.
17Slayer
Reign in Blood


DoofDoof adds our 3rd thrash album to the list.
18The National
High Violet


DoofDoof, I know nothing about this band, but I'll take your word for it based on their reputation
19The Beatles
Abbey Road


FowlKrietzsche goes for the lowest hanging fruit, but is he wrong?
20My Bloody Valentine
Loveless


DoofDoof is right. Though my one caveat is I can make people angry in this thread easily and that's kinda cool lol
21Kendrick Lamar
To Pimp a Butterfly


FowlKrietzsche goes spicy with a 2010s choice
22Cryptopsy
None So Vile


foxblood says this
23Neutral Milk Hotel
In the Aeroplane Over the Sea


Butkuiss picked this, but I'm not sure if I find this "amazing"
24Godspeed You! Black Emperor
F♯ A♯ ∞


Good pick Butkuiss
25Death Grips
Exmilitary


Butkuiss pick, but also maybe the most disagreeable one yet

at least 2 people disagree lol
26Brand New
The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me


onionbubs's choice and it makes sense yeah
27Madvillain
Madvillainy


Flashmobba's choice
28AC/DC
Back In Black


vult picked this

Uh maybe in real life? idk
29Guns N' Roses
Appetite for Destruction


vult picked this

Possibly in the real world, but not on Sput... album page is only 34 pages despite being super famous
30American Football
American Football


Futrues picks this but with the clarification that it was more in the past
31Deftones
Saturday Night Wrist


AlexKzillion picks this. I'm sure White Pony and some others also fit
32ISIS
Panopticon


Icebloom picks this and Oceanic. I don't know ISIS well, but I can see it based on how much I've seen it bumped on the front page
33The Cure
Disintegration


Icebloom says this and hmmm sure
