| Top Five Albums Of 2006
Well, 2006 is almost at an end. In my opinion, nothing really shined in music that year except for these five albums. | | 1 |  | Red Hot Chili Peppers
Stadium Arcadium
Everything that is good about RHCP are on the blue and red discs known as Jupiter and Mars. They do a little bit of everything, from their old funk of Blood Sugar Sex Magik to the soft rock of By the Way and the alt rock of One Hot Minute and Californication inbetween. The whole double album just feels like a collection of b-sides. | | 2 |  | Tool
10,000 Days
Does the same looking at the past kind of thing as RHCP did with Stadium Arcadium, but this time on one disc. "Vicarious" is a strong opening track, the really long songs are well made and the spots that are marked filler just do a good job at bridging the gap from one song to another (even though I didn't quite see the point in "Viginti Tres"). | | 3 |  | Stone Sour
Come What(ever) May
This band went into a more mainstream approach for their second album, but it worked. There are many good headbangers on this disc and "Through Glass" is probably the best song of this year, even though it takes awhile to get use to. | | 4 | | Buckcherry
15
Don't even think about getting the latest release from Jet, because this generic rock album actually has more potential to shine on. The lead single "Crazy Bitch" has everything that can make a rock song incredibly catchy and songs like "So Far", "Next 2 You", and "Broken Glass" are just as good a listen for a quick fix of hard rock. The only bad songs on 15 in my opinion are the three cheesy ballads ("Everything", "Carousel", and "Sorry"). | | 5 | | Tenacious D
The Pick of Destiny
Not as good as their self-titled debut, but it was good material for them to make a movie out of. With Jack Black's naturally born hilarity, you know this album will be rockin', 'cause it's f**kin' insane. Only thirty-four minutes in length, but this is a fun full-length album to be under the forty minute mark. | |

12.21.06 | Eh.. RHCP is a good call, but, Rise Against pwns everything on here. Maybe that's not your style, and I'd add Converge as well, but, I doubt you listen to them. Tenacious D's new album is bad, at best sadly. | Otisbum
12.21.06 | Finally, someone with a top of '06 including SS and BC. | Thor
12.21.06 | Stadium Arcadium is the most overrated album of the year. | barosjn
12.21.06 | I think it's overrated to say that Stadium Arcadium and 10,000 Days are overrated. | MrKite
12.21.06 | I think Thor is right. | NeverFading14
12.21.06 | Buckcherry and stone sour take suck to new levels. In Through glass when he says "And its the STARRRRS", It completly ruins the song, I mean it has nothing to do with the song. They just randomly threw it in there.
Buckcherry? Seriously dude. Their not even rock. Their just..like..Pop with a bit of distortion on guitars, I actually get a little sick when i hear them on the radio, and the music video with the two girls chasing the band is quite possibly the worst music video ever created, besides Call me when your sober by Evenescence. If i were in a band I wouldn't want two skanky blonde STD ridden bitches on stage with me. | barosjn
12.21.06 | The bridge in "Through Glass" might be too repetitive and kind of emo, but it works with the catchiness of the song. You are totally misjudging music. Stone Sour are a metal band, not an emo band or a mainstream radio rock band. And you probably can't tell rock apart from pop with what you ranted about Buckcherry. If you've ever heard that song "Crazy Bitch", you'd know immediately that they're hard rock. | teamsleep698
12.21.06 | yeah buckcherrys song crazy bitch is terrible, but ive never heard their album besides that. thanks for goin with 10,000 days, and about stone sour i guess they are ok/good | barosjn
12.21.06 | Fyi teamsleep, "Crazy Bitch" is different from the rest of the songs on the album even though some tracks match it musically. The band needed something catchy to put on the album to be its lead single and suprisingly, the disc's least radio-friendly song got the big amounts of airplay (especially at strip clubs). | tom79
12.21.06 | 'The whole double album just feels like a collection of b-sides.
That's a good thing? | barosjn
12.21.06 | Well, it's good because it isn't what RHCP have triumphed with before, but it showcases on two discs everything they've done in the past. | NeverFading14
12.22.06 | Dude, this one time i was lsitening to Stone sour, and it wasn't metal. it just sucked balls
Go listen to opeth | barosjn
12.22.06 | Stone Sour are totally metal. Best examples of this on Come What(ever) May are the first three songs ("30/30-150", the title track, and "Hell and Consequences"). | dude64
12.29.06 | Very generic
I don't like Stone Sour |
