    of all the "Best Album" Threads of all time this is the worst.

    "The Strokes - Room on Fire" FFS!

    "Stone Roses Second Coming" :eek:

    the mind boggles.

    Weezer's Blue album and Pinkerton for me. Either one can claim top spot depending on my mood.

    As albums they are totally the only complete albums where I love everything and not just preferential playing of a few choice songs. There's no such things as fillers on a weezer album

    Great choice!

    By favourite I guess I have to list my most consistently listened to over a period. In no order other than roughly as they came out / I got them/ or as they come to me as I list...;)

    Nirvana Nevermind
    Pink Floyd Dark side...
    Samshing Pumpkins Siamese dream
    Stone Roses Second Coming
    Air Moon Safari
    Massive Attack Mezzanine
    Groove Armad Vertigo
    LCD Sound System
    Beatles Revolver

    I know its a lot but they all seem to be on a constant cycle of listening over the last 10 years.

    I couldn't beat that list

    My alltime fav is
    Paul McCartney and Wings Venus and Mars. Every song is so far ahead of its time!

    Also Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits. Every song on that one is awesome as well.

    I must agree with some of you others, too though.

    August and Everything After is in regular rotation on my player. As is Achtung Baby.

    It's the albums that touch your soul every time you hear them - the ones you replace if you kill them. Those are the top ones.

    Dark side of the moon-rubber soul-ziggy stardust-blood on the tracks. Music to listen to for life.

    I know what you mean about Bowie....my favourite changes all the time, while zZggy is up there at the moment it's Hunky Dorey.
