| Break-Up Albums
Times have been rocky so I compiled a small list of good/bad break-up albums to listen to. Nick Cave's new album inspired this.
Do y'all have any good additions? | | 1 |  | Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
Skeleton Tree
Although the subject matter differs slightly, tracks like "I Need You" and "Girl In Amber" and "Magneto" really tear at the heartstrings of one whose heart is breaking. One to make you weep. | | 2 |  | Bob Dylan
Blood on the Tracks
To illustrate the array of emotions through his divorce, this Dylan album ranges through contemplation, self-worth, bitterness, anger, lust, longing, recollection, and heartbreak that comes with losing someone dear. One for gathering post-break-up feelings and thoughts and gathering this new perspective. | | 3 |  | Bon Iver
For Emma, Forever Ago
Famously retreating to a winter cabin, Vernon writes this album after his infamous breakup, creating a cold, beautiful, and solemn contemporary folk album that realizes your pace in this post-break-up world. One for reminiscing on why exactly this hurts you and feeling the effects of the initial impact. | | 4 |  | Fleetwood Mac
Rumours
Gotta be honest. Not the biggest fan of this album, but many people are. This album is considered a classic, and I do like "The Chain" a lot. If y'all don't know the history of this album, you should. If you haven't heard this album yet, you should give it a shot - even if you don't end up caring too much for it like me. Covers a spectrum of break-up emotions that are traditionally associated with this world of hurt. | | 5 |  | Catch 22
Keasbey Nights
Now for the F-U I'm free! section. This album is great about "getting on your own two feet" and embracing this freedom from the old "ball-and-chain". Great for a fast-paced, rebellious sense of liberation that comes from being single and free to venture the world. | | 6 |  | The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Are You Experienced
The deluxe edition, with "Stone Free" and "51st Anniversary". Placed on this list for the same reasons as Keasbey Nights | |
