SwallowARazor: Favorite Albums

KritikalMotion 08.14.08	6 and 7 are good, but Doppelganger and Miss Machine/Calculating Infinity kill them. 10 is my favourite album.
SwallowARazor 08.14.08	Well, it's a good thing that I have all 3 of those albums, Doppelganger, Miss Machine, and Calculating Infinity. And they're all great, but I thought Ire Works was a more cohesive album, and Manipulator was my first album by them. Definitely magical for me, however good Doppelganger is.
botb 08.14.08	1 is one of my favorite albums. 5 is a nu-metal classic, imo. 6 is great but not their best. 7 is awesome, but not their best. HUGE props for 10, as I recently checked it out a couple months ago and have been listening to it nonstop since. 8 and 9 are good too.
KritikalMotion 08.14.08	Good reasoning razor. Ire Works was solid for me and i liked Manipulator but feel that its just a step to their next work.
Cuban Pete 08.14.08	1 is good but alaska slays it need 3 4 is good but i prefer elephant and icky thump 5 is their second best to the s/t need 6 7 is good but doppelganger is better, just like the rest of the commenters are saying, but your reasoning for prefering it is good. need 10.
chaoticmelody 08.14.08	Entire list is awesome! Very confused with the album choices on 3, 5, and 7 as I think that all 3 bands first and self-titled albums are their strongest by a long run. 6 is a close call with Calculating Infinity and 10 is a close call with Art Damage. Don't know if you havent heard earlier stuff from these bands or if you just prefer the ones on your list. If you haven't heard the old stuff definitely give them a listen!
SwallowARazor 08.14.08	Tera Melos's first album bugged me because of the 28 minute noise track, that and the quality of songs on Drugs was better than the first. Toxicity was much more accessible, and more tasteful than SOAD's s/t. And compared to their newer albums, Fall of Troy's first album sounds like a completely different band; their first album is special to me though because I have a signed copy of it. And Art Damage just doesn't do it for me. I just can't get into it after listening to 'Mouth'. But I do have all the albums you mentioned, excluding Art Damage.
