What are your top 5 albums of all time?

[xJesusFreakx]

I know that this basic sort of thread has been done before, possibly multiple times, but new users are joining all the time, and the favorite albums could change for some people, so no reason why this can't be done again.

(To be honest, I just want a bunch of albums to check out because I'm in the mood to expand my rather limited knowledge of good music. I could see some good discussion coming out of this, though, as well as some discoveries for other people.)

Oh, and yes, this is "favorite," not "best." Important distinction for sure.

1.) dc Talk - Jesus Freak
2.) Brand New - The Devil and G-d are Raging Inside Me
3.) As Cities Burn - Come Now, Sleep
4.) mewithoutYou - Brother, Sister
5.) Thrice - The Artist in the Ambulance

There are recent favorites that I might rank higher than some of these, but they're albums that I haven't digested enough to consider all time favorites.


EDIT: This is somewhat out of date, but I'll go ahead and keep it here, just 'cause it's fun to see old posts and whatnot. Yep.

[joeag1985]

I hate making lists, especially with albums and the likes. There's just too many amazing collections of songs. But.... I'll make an exception just for this thread... Off the top of my head...

Vheissu
Kind of Blue

1. Foo Fighters - The Colour And The Shape
2. Cave In - Antenna
3. My Vitriol - Finelines
4. Rage Against The Machine - The Battle of Los Angeles

the first three are definite. anything after that changes pretty often

[Machu505]

1.) Cursive - Happy Hollow
2.) Andrew Bird - Armchair Apocrypha
3.) Weezer - Pinkerton
4.) The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium

2. Bright Eyes - Fevers and Mirrors

[Neo Cassady]

1. Bright Eyes - I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
2. Sigur Ros - ( )
3. Pink Floyd - The Wall

it changes often after those.

The Avalanches- Since I Left You
Pixies- Doolittle
Panda Bear- Person Pitch
Tom Waits- Rain Dogs
Björk- Homogenic

Wilco - Being There
Counting Crows - Recovering the Satellites
Operation Ivy - Energy (I consider it one album)
Rancid - ...and out come the wolves
The Get Up Kids - Four Minute Mile

....Weezer's Pinkerton would fall to number 6.

[FiveIronFlores]

dc talk!? really!!!? Artist in the Ambulance!!? really!!? I might be able to justify the others based on your explanation

I know that this basic sort of thread has been done before, possibly multiple times, but new users are joining all the time, and the favorite albums could change for some people, so no reason why this can't be done again.

[friskycurtain]

blink - TOYPAJ

[Greg.Kushlan]

dc talk!? really!!!? Artist in the Ambulance!!? really!!? I might be able to justify the others based on your explanation

Maybe those two albums came around at the right time and had a huge impact on the OP.

Thrice's AITA is one of my favorites because of the fact it got me into the underground and in some ways helped me become the person that I am today.

[xJesusFreakx]

Well, I'm not sure what this post is supposed to mean, but...

Thrice's AITA is one of my favorites because of the fact it got me into the underground and in some ways helped me become the person that I am today.

...what he said. I grew up listening to Jesus Freak. It was the album that made me fall in love with music, and I still love every part of it. As for The Artist in the Ambulance, the title track and "Stare at the Sun" are reason enough for it to be a favorite of mine. Those two songs hit me at just the right time lyrically, "Artist" especially, and they will thus always be among my favorite songs ever written.

1) Queen - A Night at the Opera

Everything else changes a lot.

[fly_guy]

1. The Early November - The Room's Too Cold

Ray LaMontagne - Till The Sun Turns Black
Radiohead - Kid A
Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Rx Bandits - The Resignation
The Beatles - Abbey Road

Thrice - The Alchemy Index (entire project)
mewithoutYou - It's All Crazy! It's all False! etc.

Two of these came out in the past couple months...I'm not trying to question your love for them, but don't you think you want to spend more time with the records before you call them two of the best albums you've ever heard in your life?

[JoshuaFiedler]

the Cure - Disintegration
Radiohead - The Bends

Like a year ago, maybe less, the music forum went through a series of 'The Music Forum's Favorite Albums/Artists of all time and of each decade. Search for those threads and you can spearhead your own.

[batmannj]

Doing a top five is tough but here goes:

Incubus - Morning View
Norma Jean - Bless The Martyr and Kiss the Child
Underoath - Define The Great Line
mewithoutYou - Catch For Us The Foxes (honestly, I could rotate this record and Brother, Sister. Both are huge for me.)
Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest (This record hit me at a perfect time this year.)
Deftones - White Pony
New Found Glory - New Found Glory
Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
Anberlin - Cities

I know that was more than five, but those are the ones that have really influential to me. It changes often as I am sure it does for most people.

[SolitaryBlue]

damn, everyone keeps mentioning Brand New...
i can't pick my favorites of all-time but right now i really like these:

1. Brand New - The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me
2. Cursive - Domestica
3. The Strokes - Is This It
4. Metric - Fantasies
5. Jenny Lewis - Rabbit Fur Coat

[xJesusFreakx]

Jesus Freak was my jam in middle school. Now, not so much.

I think anyone who was a Christian and liked rock music in the 90s jammed to Jesus Freak at some point or another.

1. Emery - The Weak's End
2. Underoath - They're Only Chasing Safety
3. As Cities Burn - Son, I Loved You At Your Darkest
4. Brand New - The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me
5. Taking Back Sunday - Tell All Your Friends

That's a pretty unpopular album to be your favorite, lol.

Four out of ten isn't THAT much for my favorite artist of all time.

Fair enough.

I spilled it all over my beige v-neck and played it off as a deliberate, ironic new fashion trend.

... *goes out to buy a beige v-neck and a latte to deliberately spill all over it*

Two of these came out in the past couple months...I'm not trying to question your love for them, but don't you think you want to spend more time with the records before you call them two of the best albums you've ever heard in your life?

I definitely agree with this. There are albums I've just discovered, or that just came out, that I may like more than the albums in my top 5, but you definitely need some time with an album before you can consider it an all time favorite. The initial excitement has to die down so that you can see how much lasting value it has.

damn, everyone keeps mentioning Brand New...

[s.t.e.v.e.n.]

The National - Boxer
Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde
Counting Crows - August and Everything After
Bonnie "Prince" Billy - I See A Darkness
Radiohead - Ok Computer

My top 10 is always shifting but those 5 are certainly up there. Especially the top 3.

[micahistheballs]

I think anyone who was a Christian and liked rock music in the 90s jammed to Jesus Freak at some point or another.

Most definitely, but I was a tad late to the scene, but oh well. The first cd I ever bought was their greatest hits. Needless to say, I've drifted away a tad.

Boxer might be in my top 5 as well, but I didn't include it because I haven't had enough time with it yet to give it a fair ranking.

Their greatest hits were mine as well, but I got Jesus Freak right afterwards. Back in like 5th grade, my brother and I used to jam to a tape that just had "Jesus Freak" and Jars of Clay's "Flood" on repeat. Oh, the nostalgia those songs give me...

If only they could reunite so I could see them live, just once. Toby Mac does NOT work without Kevin and Michael. :/

[11:11]

In no particular order:

1) Brandtson- Send Us a Signal
2) Fall Out Boy- Take This To Your Grave
3) The Cribs- Men's Needs, Women's Needs, Whatever
4) blink-182- Untitled
5) John Mayer- Heavier Things

Honorable Mentions:

Gatsby's American Dream- Volcano
Jimmy Eat World- Futures
Forgive Durden- Wonderland
Acceptance- Phantoms

[Justin_stacy]

That's a pretty unpopular album to be your favorite, lol.


there have been worse examples so far....

blink-182 - enema of the state

afi - december underground

limp bizkit - significant other

korn - follow the leader


I feel sick just looking at those four. :tongue:

[Rawrr]

Modest Mouse- The Lonesome Crowded West
Modest Mouse- Building Nothing Out of Something
Modest Mouse- The Moon & Antartica
caP'n Jazz- Analphabetapolothology

The fuck? Did you even listen to that album?

[heroesofthepast]

The fuck? Did you even listen to that album?


yep
i admit it was...different from their previous albums
but after louder now i had essentially given up on them
new again really redeemed them for me
hence its position in my current top 5

[hailthewarrior]

That's a pretty unpopular album to be your favorite, lol.

1.) An album has to be popular to be a favorite?
2.) It's their most lauded effort, and is pretty damn popular. "Walls" is still their most famous song BY FAR.

[11:11]

yep

If you say so. I don't understand it though, because there are some good albums in the rest of your 5.

[xJesusFreakx]

Kevin's the only one I can even tolerate solo.

I actually really like some of his solo material. I'm looking forward to his new album, which I think comes out this year. He's tolerable because he doesn't sound like a watered down dc Talk, lol.

1.) An album has to be popular to be a favorite?
2.) It's their most lauded effort, and is pretty damn popular. "Walls" is still their most famous song BY FAR.

1.) Not at all. Just an observation.
2.) I usually think of The Question as their most popular, though I do like The Weak's End more as an album from start to finish. Now that I think of it, though, it's not that unpopular. Not like I'm Only a Man.

[heroesofthepast]

If you say so. I don't understand it though, because there are some good albums in the rest of your 5.
:D thanks

[s.t.e.v.e.n.]

Boxer might be in my top 5 as well, but I didn't include it because I haven't had enough time with it yet to give it a fair ranking.

Obviously I'd highly recommend it.

[narcoleptic953]

Like a year ago, maybe less, the music forum went through a series of 'The Music Forum's Favorite Albums/Artists of all time and of each decade. Search for those threads and you can spearhead your own.

edit: Example http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=466921&highlight=music+forum+favorite

Ahhh, yes. I remember the music forum favorite albums threads. I posted my thoughts in a few of them, but I missed the boat on making and submitting lists for it.

[makeasound]

Autopilot Off - Make A Sound
Lostprophets - Start Something
The Beatles - A Hard Day's Night!
Midtown - Living Well Is The Best Revenge
Acceptance - Phantoms

[Justin_stacy]

well mate, why dont u go be sick! those are albums ive enjoyed at points in my life and thats my taste not yours so either go have a spew or piss of and listen to your own "high class art" music

...if an aversion to Korn and limp bizkit equates to 'high class art," then so be it.

:beerbros:

[AussieBoy]

...if an aversion to Korn and limp bizkit equates to 'high class art," then so be it.

:beerbros:

mate it just pisses me off, when people have a go at subjective opinions, i couldve fudged it like half the people usually do and put some other bands they i like in my 5 that may have "more cred" in snobbier circles, but i decided to be genuinely honest with the 5 albums ive listened to the most since i was a little fella and people like u have a go at it

im happy for people to have a go at fred durst, but u cant deny the band are talented musicians and make some fun tunes and Korn did some revolutionary things with to heavy music in the mid 90s

[kearn1tm]

Korn did some revolutionary things with to heavy music in the mid 90s

What did they do that was "revolutionary?"

[Thesleepingwell]

Top five is the following:

The Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
Type O Negative - October Rust
The Offspring - Smash
Paramore - All We Know Is Falling
Pantera - Cowboys From Hell

Oh and as Limp Bizkit is metioned...
'Significant Other' is in the top ten at 9.
So? I used to listen to this all the time.

[s.t.e.v.e.n.]

What did they do that was "revolutionary?"

Ha I was gonna be very surprised if no one questioned that.

I'm counting on a "it's my opinion" type of answer. Although the Korn video where the fly goes around landing on all the instruments and getting knocked around was...different.

[deanster321]

All I'm really sure of is that Watch Out! by Alexisonfire is my favourite album ever. I'll probably come back with more at some point.

[killerswells]

thursday- full collapse
circa survive- juturna
swollen members- balance
as tall as lions- s/t
every time i die- hot damn
boys night out- trainwreck
mute math- s/t
name taken- hold on
norma jean- redeemer

maybe not the coolest list ever. but every one of these has affected me at one time or another.

Leaving aside the fact that I don't understand how anyone even got through that album, it's still stupid to put it on there because it came out like 2 months ago. You shouldn't even be allowed to put albums that are less than 6 months old.

[FiveIronFlores]

Two of these came out in the past couple months...I'm not trying to question your love for them, but don't you think you want to spend more time with the records before you call them two of the best albums you've ever heard in your life?

The Stranger is close for me too. Not enough Billy Joel appreciation around here, haha.


Also, can we make a few rules for this thread and stop people from posting albums from the last 6 months? This thread is about all time favorites, not stuff you're currently spinning. It just seems stupid to me for people to post stuff that might not even stand the test of time for them. This rule could go in with others (like not being allowed to choose greatest hits albums and stuff.)

None of us have the slightest idea. Which is so unusual. I seriously have no idea.

Face to Face - Big Choice
Blink-182 - Dude Ranch
Millencolin - Pennybridge Pioneers

...and 100 honourable mentions

[Cheesus]

[s.t.e.v.e.n.]

It seems you've only ever heard of Andrew McMahon and Nate Reuss

[chipdip18]

So Ryan, when you making the big thread?

[DogSizedBird]

1. Fear Before the March of Flames - The Always Open Mouth

Yeah, this list is kind of obsolete now. I still consider all of these favorites of mine, but that's a very broad category. Jesus Freak is still at the top, and The National's Boxer is directly below it, but the rest is far too variable to be condensed into a simple list like this.

[T-bag]

1.Ozzy Osbourne - Under Cover
2.Milli Vanilli - All Or Nothing
3.Neil Young And The Shocking Pinks - Everybody's Rocking
4.Beck - Midnight Vultures
5.Oasis - Standing On The Shoulders

[cwya]

1.) ...Is a Real Boy- Say Anything
2.) Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Vol. 1: From Fear through the Eyes of Madness- Coheed and Cambria
3.) Rise or Die Trying- Four Year Strong
4.) Minor Threat's Complete Discography
5.) This spot will be a tie between two of my favorite guilty pleasure pop punk bands; Can't Stop Won't Stop- The Maine and The Party Scene- All Time Low

This list changes weekly, no doubt.

2. Bright Eyes - Lifted...
3. Biffy Clyro - Infinity Land

5. The Clash - London Calling



Only picking 5 albums is ridiculously hard and inaccurate though.

[T-bag]

London calling was the 2nd worse album the clash ever released (second only to combat rock,which was a pile of bollocks). It's just radio rock. You Can find london calling on "Hits for your dad" Compilations.

2. Boston - Boston

1. Jack's Mannequin - The Glass Passenger
2. Jack's Mannequin - Everything in Transit
3. The Format - Dog Problems
4. Something Corporate - North
5. Something Corporate - Leaving Through the Window

I wanted to put Aim & Ignite, but I felt it was too soon for it to be considered a favorite of all time.
good list, and i agree about aim and ignite.

my list goes as follow (in no particular order):

mae: the everglow
motion city soundtrack: commit this to memory
say anything: ...is a real boy
fall out boy folie a deux
jack's mannequin: the glass passenger

but it changes often.

Actually, we don't even drink in Australia. We're a dry country. I don't understand why all these bars and grills have popped up using an "outback" motif.

We do like to murder though. That's a pasttime.

[Cuddleworthy]

We do like to murder though. That's a pasttime.

well that makes sense since your country/wannabe continent started out as a dumping ground for british convincts

[kearn1tm]

well that makes sense since your country/wannabe continent started out as a dumping ground for british convincts

That's not what happened, bro. It was an Island Revolt with certain sects of Norse Gods rebelling against others. Shit's punk like Sex Pistols and Chumbawumba.

[myplanforescape]

Jesus and Mary Chain- Psychocandy
I Hate Myself- 10 Songs
My Bloody Valentine- Loveless
Blood Brothers - Burn, Piano Island, Burn

How could I flame a 13 year old kid who's actually got an interest in music? I can't say those are my fav albums in the world, but hey. Don't let anyone bash you for your taste. I actually really admire young kids that are actively seeking out music. In this shithole of a city, they ALL listen to Kottonmouth Kings, ICP, and various Top 40.

Like what you wanna like, kiddo. By the time you're 20, you'll have such a great knowledge in music that you'll have the right to flame whoever you want. :)

As for my Top 5 of ALL time? Well, I'm gonna list some that I don't listen to anymore, but they've been so influential that they need to be in my Top 5.
