[EnderDove]

Top 5 in order:

Weezer - Pinkerton
Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism
Weezer - Blue Album
The Decemberists - Picaresque
Say Anything - ...Is a Real Boy
Just wondering.....I always see how alot of people have Transatlanticism listed about The Photo Alum or We Have The Facts..., so I was just wondering if you people havent listened to the older Death Cab cds or just dont like them as much. Just wondering, it seems as if some people just started to listen and havent listened to the older stuff which I think is better.

[chaoticXpunk]

Mine, in no particular order...

Jimmy Eat World - Clarity
Muse - Absolution
Texas Is the Reason - Do You Know Who You Are?

[dude45230]

Just wondering, it seems as if some people just started to listen and havent listened to the older stuff which I think is better.

I've got every Death Cab CD all the way back to You Can Play These Songs With Chords. The Photo Album definitely would be a close 6th on this list, I just like Transatlanticism better overall, mainly for the epic title track. Each song on Transatlanticism was my favorite song in my entire CD collection at one time or another for the entire year after I bought the CD, so I think it's just a little more complete than their older ones, even though they're quite awesome as well.

[punkerx99]

Sorry, but I have to put 6 instead of 5. No order:

Green Day- 1039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours
Refused- The Shape of Punk to Come

Lifetime- Jersey's Best Dancers
Gorilla Biscuits- Start Today

involving death cab:

i like alot of the older stuff a great deal but as a complete album i felt Transatlanticism was the most solid all the way through..i also like "Something About Airplanes" alot & You Can Play These Songs With Chords (a b-sides record that's A+ to me)...i have 7 of their records (couple EP's) and all are nothing short of studly...

[GothamCity_hXc]

I cant really name my fave five albums ever, so ill be cool and name the 5 albums i like to listen to at night time!


Interpol - Turn On The Bright Lights
The Postal Service - Give Up
Amusement Parks On Fire - S/T
Radiohead - The Bends
Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary

[Love As Arson]

If Fall Out Boy is on your list, then you have no concept of good music whatsoever.

[level4loser]

top 5 albums-

led zeppelin- II
the beatles- the white album
pink floyd- dark side of the moon
radiohead- ok computer
john coltrane- a love supreme

fuck that other shit. i love saves the day. but they dont have shit on zeppelin. and if you put fall out boy, i will hunt you down and kill you.

[Love As Arson]

If you say Deja Entendu, then I'd suggest you listen to any record by Morrissey and The Smiths, and you'll find that they are infinitely better than that album. The originators are always better than those who simply copy.

[punkerx99]

if you put fall out boy, i will hunt you down and kill you.

Come and get me sukka.

I also put Refused, Gorilla Biscuits, Lifetime, Thrice, and Green Day. Deal with it.

If Fall Out Boy is on your list, then you have no concept of good music whatsoever.

Wrong.

[allelish]

[Love As Arson]

Come and get me sukka.

I also put Refused, Gorilla Biscuits, Lifetime, Thrice, and Green Day. Deal with it.



Wrong.
No, I am right, as I have better taste in music, while yours is sub-par. Listen to some good music, then maybe your opinion will matter. Until then, it is invalid.

[djUbilla]

If you say Deja Entendu, then I'd suggest you listen to any record by Morrissey and The Smiths, and you'll find that they are infinitely better than that album. The originators are always better than those who simply copy.
Disagree, I'll take Deja Entendu over The Queen is dead any day. Any other Smiths albums I should check out?

[level4loser]

Come and get me sukka.

I also put Refused, Gorilla Biscuits, Lifetime, Thrice, and Green Day. Deal with it.


ill give you the benefit of the doubt for refused and gorilla biscuits. lifetime is decent.

[djUbilla]

scene points for liking audio karate. even more points just for knowing who ultimate fakebook is.
Dude that album is amazing. What happened to them? I know one of the guys is in Black Pool Lights, a new band with Suptic from TGUK, but what about the rest of them.

And Lady Melody is pure rock beauty. I love that album. Oh wow, how I love that album.

[aminorthreat55]

Driving in Silence-Complete Discography
Ted Leo/Pharmacists-"Shake the Sheets"
Less Than Jake-"Borders and Boundaries"
The Clash-"London Calling"
Rival Schools-"United By Fate"

This was so difficult for me to do, but I think that's more or less it.

If Fall Out Boy is on your list, then you have no concept of good music whatsoever.
Hahahaha yes. I am not a fan of them at all. So many better records out there.

My honorable mentions:

Midtown-"Living Well is the Best Revenge"
Green Day-"Dookie", "American Idiot"
Thursday-"Full Collapse"
Rancid-"...And Out Come the Wolves"
Saves the Day-"Through Being Cool"
Northstar-"Pollyanna"

[YourLatestVicti]

jimmy eat world-clarity
brand new-deja entendu
u2-the joshua tree
mae-destination beautiful

U2 and the Police kick major ass. Those two records and the Foo Fighters- Colour and Shape should have been on my list.

[Candy_Warhol]

you know I've never listened to Ted Leo, any specific tracks that are good?

biomusicology
or me and mia

[YourLatestVicti]

If you say Deja Entendu, then I'd suggest you listen to any record by Morrissey and The Smiths, and you'll find that they are infinitely better than that album. The originators are always better than those who simply copy.
I've listened to both the Smilths and Morrissey and while I like them I like Deja Entendu much more.

[aminorthreat55]

you know I've never listened to Ted Leo, any specific tracks that are good?
Me and Mia, Shake the Sheets, Biomusicology, Ballad Of the Sin Eater (esp. live), Where Have All The Rude Boys Gone, Timorous Me, and I guess thats a good start.

[FinchBulldog2]

Your Favorite Weapon = Deja Entendu

They are both great in their own right.

[allelish]

don't get me wrong, i love deja as well...but there's a lot of people who think deja is better than your favorite weapon. and in my opinion, it's the other way around.
After thinking about it, i think you may be right. I think i enjoy your favourite weapon more. Eventhough Deja is bezerk also.

[Shoes]

don't get me wrong, i love deja as well...but there's a lot of people who think deja is better than your favorite weapon. and in my opinion, it's the other way around.
I agree, YFW is very underrated.

kid a is tight

ice age comming ice age comming

[aminorthreat55]

Deja Entendu is more depressing to listen to and Your Favourite Weapon is more fun. They're both good. I prefer the fun one and thats what it comes down to for me.

[aminorthreat55]

My friend and I would walk down to the beach last summer and sing those songs at the top of our lungs because they're so much fun. You can't really do that with the songs on Deja Entendu.

[Web250]

Deja Entendu is more depressing to listen to and Your Favourite Weapon is more fun. They're both good. I prefer the fun one and thats what it comes down to for me.

Excellent way to put it. If im in a ehhh/not so happy mood, DE is the way to go. If i'm feeling like partying and having a good time, or just screaming lyrics at the top of my lungs, then YFW is the key.

[marbury1414]

Taking Back Sunday- Tell All Your Friends
The Smashing Pumpkins- Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
Pink Floyd- Wish You Were Here
The Vines- Highly Evolved (the second one kinda sucked, but honestly this is one of my absolutely favorite cds)

[rossman692]
