    I forgot one.......

    Skyclad - Jonah's Ark

    How could I forget that!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,005 ✭✭✭Creature


    I agree that The Downward Spiral is a most excellent album. Trent Reznor is a musical maestro.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    Iron Maiden- Powerslave.

    It's an excellent band in utterly top form. That's the album that made me an unashamed Maiden fanatic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 378 ✭✭wiped


    oooohhhh that's a b**ch of a question .... but I'd probably go for Floyds : The Wall.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,848 ✭✭✭✭Doctor J


    No way I could stick to just one, or even ten...

    so, in no particular order, here's just a few...

    Masters Of Reality : The Blue Garden
    Black Sabbath : Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (though all of Sabbath's work is of merit)
    Atheist : Unquestionable Presence
    Death : Human (See Sabbath remark)
    Cynic : Focus
    Watchtower : Control & Resistance
    Obituary : Cause Of Death
    Overkill : The Years Of Decay
    Flotsam & Jetsam : Doomsday For The Deceiver
    Sleep : Dopesmoker
    Mindfunk : Dropped
    Metallica : Master Of Puppets
    Anthrax : Among The Living, WCFYA & Stomp 442
    Led Zep : DVD
    Deep Purple : Machine Head, Fireball, In Rock
    Megadeth : Peace Sells, Rust In Peace
    Slayer : Reign In Blood
    Sacred Reich : Surf Nicaragua
    Trouble : Trouble (see Sabbath remark)
    The Obsessed : The Church Within
    Alice In Chains : Dirt
    Celtic Frost : Morbid Tales
    Death Angel : Act III
    Coroner : Mental Vortex
    Faith No More : The Real Thing
    Judas Priest : Painkiller
    Kreator : Renewal
    Ozzy : Blizzard Of Ozz & Diary Of A Madman
    Smashing Pumpkins : Gish
    Kyuss : Sky Valley

    There's loads more, but that's a decent enough start, I'd recommend those albums to anybody.

    Jesus DocJ! Couldn't you keep it down to 1?

    Anyway, my fav:
    "Six", by Mansun.

    Kinda like 'trip-rock' if there is such a thing. They got £25,000 to make the video for the single Legacy. They bought 4 "Ken" dolls (from barbie), and made a £400 video about the life of a band using said dolls. They blew the rest on drugs. Legend.

    Damn, forgot to mention Six, an album from the very top drawer! Little Kix was such a disappointment after that. :D

    For the moment it's Queen Adreena's Taxidermy, although that will probably change within the next few months. I'm quite fickle.

    "Black Market Music" was such a let down after "Without You I'm Nothing". You think the two compare?

    "Thirteenth Step" is fast becoming one of my favourite albums (although I still prefer Mer De Noms). What is The Used album like? I only have "The Taste of Ink", and I liked that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    The rest of 'the used album' is nothing like Taste of Ink, it is WAY better ~!
    it is AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!! man, buy it now ! if your not sure, download maybe memories.

    Hmmmmm, Its in its own Category, sure WYIN was mind blowing but nothing compares to Taste in Men and Haemoglobin, Some may say SWG is better than BMM but i think it was just the sate of mind i was in when BMM was released and i went to see them live at that time, so totally fell in love with the album.
