    I didn't see a thread on this topic, so I decided to make one. Now, I love music about as much as I love movies, so I wanted to find out everyone's favorite music albums. You know, the ones where every single song is good, and no matter how many times you listen to them, they're still great. I'm limiting mine to a Top 25, and believe me, even that was difficult. I'm also sorting them by artist (Soundtracks are separate.) These are also in absolutely no order since that'd be impossible. Here's mine, and feel free to post yours! :thumbsup:

    AC/DC - Back In Black
    Christina Aguilera - Stripped
    Christina Aguilera - Back To Basics
    Christina Aguilera - Bionic
    Michael Jackson - Thriller
    Cyndi Lauper - She's So Unusual

    As in complete albums that I don't want to skip half the songs on? Mostly newer (and in two of their cases, really newer)...

    30 Seconds to Mars - This Is War
    Framing Hanley - The Moment
    Transmit Now - Downtown Merry-Go-Round
    Hawthorne Heights - Fragile Future

    A few Pink Floyd albums come to mind. Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, The Wall, The Division Bell are some of my favourites. The fourth Led Zeppelin album is awesome too. I've also got a soft spot for Stevie Ray Vaughn/Double Trouble's Texas Flood album.

    Everything by Lamb of God is great in my book, so I won't bother listing the albums.

    In Your Blood by Cadaveria
    Among Mortals by Vampiria
    Pray for Villains by DevilDriver

    There may be some more, but I don't feel like poking around my folders anymore.

    Humbug- Arctic Monkeys
    (yes i <3 The Arctic Monkeys)

    There are many more albums that i love, but i have chosen the ones that spring to mind as ones that mean something to me, the majority of those there are those that have influenced me musically, and that make me feel great. All the songs on all those albums listed, i am literally incapable of not signing out loud to :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I really don't have a lot of full albums because, when I do get a full album, I always end up listening to just a few songs on it and eschewing everything else. However, these albums are the exceptions.

    Yes, really. Though I prefer the movie versions to the album versions, I have to say, this movie just had amazing songs.

    I hate pitchfork XD but good selection.
    Also, if it's one thing that gets me hard, it's great vocal harmonies. Glad you noticed XD
