seeing that my album collection is rapidly growing, i'd like to see what your favourite albums you have in your collection. how about we make it a top 5 (needs not to be in any order) to simplify peoples list; if you want to add a 6th or 7th, by all means. i'll start:

*pearl jam "ten"

*bjork "vespertine"

*dido "no angel"

*the strokes "is this it?"

*diana krall "live in paris"

i have roughly 60 albums or so, so some were quite obvious to me.

discuss. cheers!

I know that's more than 5, but that's how hard is is for me to choose a limited few.

I have about 500-600 albums. Sometimes it gets hard to figure out what I want to hear.

* Hooverphonic - The Magnificent Tree

You can pretty much never go wrong with Hooverphonic. 'cept I prefer Blue Wonder Power Milk and A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular.

Here goes:

The Used: The Used, Greener with the Scenery sounds really good on my new setup.

STP: Core, DVD-Audio. There's so much more detail on No Memory compared to the CD, it's sickeningly good smile.gif

Thievery Corporation: Sounds from the Thievery Hi-fi

Ashen: Pull and Repel, No Other Comfort

Mocean Worker: Mixed Emotional Features

MOLOKO-Statues

Neil Young-Greendale

Tom Waits-Real Gone

Dirty 3- Whatever you love you are

Pearl Jam-VS

Damien Rice-O

The list changes daily except for vs. thats always there, but everything else changes

Well, like most people here choosing five is doing a lot of other records wrong, but here's my all time favourite list...at this moment ;-)

The Mars Volta - Deloused in the comatorium

Tool - AEnema

Kyuss - Welcome to Sky Valley

DJ Shadow - Endtroducing

Godspeed You Black Emperor - Levez Vos Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven

P.S.: Hooverphonic is OK for a Belgian band, but check out the likes of 'the Evil Superstars', 'dEUS' and 'Millionaire'... Belgium might be a shitty little country but it still has very good beer and a couple of brilliant bands!!!

I like these threads. It gives me something to go on when I'm getting "the itch" for "new" music.

Cori, that Opeth stuff is...well...spooky.

Andy

I'm diggin' Radiohead. I might not have tried them if it wasn't for this thread.

Thanks,

Andy cool.gif

I'll keep mine short and sweet:

Paul Oakenfold - Perfecto Presents Another World

5 years ago, I stumbled upon a CD...i bought it. Hated it for 5 months. And then something happened.....I got addicted to it for 5 years and counting.
