| | 15 Classic Albums | | 1 |  | Hanoi Rocks
Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Roc
Sleazy, raw and ready for a Friday night out on the town, this classic helped usher in the "glam" generation. Recommended track: "Tragedy" | | 2 |  | Motley Crue
Too Fast For Love
By far the best release in the band's illustrious discography. A perfect combination of hard rock. metal, a punk attitude and pop sensibilities. | | 3 |  | Burzum
Hvis Lyset Tar Oss
Lead by Varg's one of a kind voice, this is some of the most dense, emotionally satisfying black metal ever to exist. | | 4 |  | Spite Extreme Wing
Vltra
These guys while consistently amazing throughout their short discography, never really got the attention they deserve. Vltra is their magnum opus, combining black metal, punk and classic rock in a daring combination that pays off in dividends. | | 5 |  | Buckethead
Electric Tears
Far removed from the robotic shred that dominates most of his other albums, Electric Tears is a great exercise in chill guitar based bliss. | | 6 |  | Viggo Mortensen
Pandemoniumfromamerica
A colloboration between Buckethead and Viggo Mortensen, this one of kind album is filled with weird ambience the haunting prose of Mortensen. | | 7 |  | Deviser
Unspeakable Cults
Refined, classy and majestic black metal. | | 8 |  | Carcass
Necroticism:Descanting The Insalubrious
Carcass's first (and only) album played in a pure death metal style, this release sees them start to incorporate the melodic edge that would follow them on subsequent albums while retaining the crushing of traditional death metal. | | 9 |  | The Black Crowes
The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion
Probably still drunk from last night | | 10 |  | Damian Valles
Bow Echoes
Guitar based ambient that incorporates elements of classical amongst other genres. Really great stuff, the music will strike you at your core. | | 11 |  | Jonas Helborg
Octave of the Holy Innocents
Really awesome acoustic jazz from this Swedish born bassist. | | 12 |  | William Fitzsimmons
The Sparrow and the Crow
Probably the thing I enjoy best about William Fitzsimmons are his lyrics; he's not subtle, he doesn't write with crazy metaphors, everything is just upfront and honest. He also happens to be one of my favorite vocalists, his soft, whispered voice is just crazy alluring. | | 13 |  | OutKast
Stankonia
"Ms. Jackson" by itself brings this up to a 4 and the other songs are just icing on the (ice-cream) cake. | | 14 |  | Parliament
Mothership Connection
Shut the funk up, you know you love it too. | | 15 |  | Peaking Lights
Imaginary Falcons
Unusual lo-fi ambient that has some crazy addictive pop (AND REGGAE?!) hooks and ridiculously haunting female vocals. | |

06.29.10 | THANK YOU for 9. I did an entire Black Crowes discog and I think maybe 10 people commented on it total, band needs way more love.
THIS ROOM SMELLS LIKE HOTEL ILLNESS | Hyperion1001
06.29.10 | I've heard some of this, but 6 is pretty interesting, you know, with Aragorn making music and all. Also, for 3, Det Som En Gang Var never loses it's touch.
In the vein of 13, list needs more GZA's Liquid Swords.
Cool list, some stuff here that seems like i'd enjoy it. | TheSpirit
06.29.10 | @BigHans- The Black Crowes are criminally underrated.
@ Hyperion- I think I have the 3 Burzum albums rated as classic, but Hvis is my all-time favorite for them. | BigHans
06.29.10 | I don't know much about William Fitzsimmons, but I heard a song on last.fm called When You Were Young that was fucking awesome.
Oh, and of course, MOTLEY ftw. | TheSpirit
06.29.10 | Hell yeah Motley. Honestly if I didn't think I'd get flamed for it, I'd probably have six more of there albums on here. And William Fitzsimmons is really really awesome. | BigHans
06.29.10 | Fuck anyone who flames hair metal. | vanderb0b
06.29.10 | Got 8 not too long ago, such a great album. | Hyperion1001
06.29.10 | Burzum can very quickly go from completely boring to great. Hvis Lyset Tar Oss and Det Som Engang Var are his best (when i said Det Som earlier, i meant the song on Hvis, not the album).
However, i may be one of the few people who actually kind of enjoy his ambient records. Hermo-r A Helfer is one of my all time favorites. | TheSpirit
06.29.10 | I don't hate his ambient stuff, but at the same time I really need to be in a weird mood to give it a listen | FadeToBlack
06.29.10 | used to love Necroticism, but Symphonies is probas my favourite now
good list | bloc
06.29.10 | I'M SORRY MS. JACKSON!!!!
I AM FO REALLLL | TheSpirit
