[Jefferson Rank]

Weezer - Maladroit (Their best album btw)

um... no. Make Belive (Excluding Beverly Hills) is their best. Perfect Situation is their best song.

[handlikesecret]

anything by Thrice
...Is a Real Boy
Enema of the State
Bleed American

[bard]

um... no. Make Belive (Excluding Beverly Hills) is their best. Perfect Situation is their best song.
woah woah woah woah woah

you DID NOT just say that. i agree that perfect situation is a good song, but make believe is like, their least good album.

come on, maladroit had:

slob
slave
love explosion
december
death and destruction
burndt jamb

actually, they're all incredible on that album

have you listened to all of their albums?

[Jefferson Rank]

woah woah woah woah woah

Probably not. I know for sure that Make Believe is better then The Blue album and The Red Album, because those ones I own. and I can't stand the song Dope Nose.

[bard]

man, i don't like the LOVE that blue and pinkerton get because although they're good albums, they're not THE BEST 90'S ALBUM EVAR!!!!!!! like most people think.

re-listen to maladroit, read the lyrics, skip dope nose if you need to, but come on Beverly Hills? We Are All On Drugs? those are really bad songs.

[IWasaCamera]

Far too much Swiss Army Romance and Deja Entendu.

[handlikesecret]

Far too much Swiss Army Romance and Deja Entendu.
are you saying you listened to too much SAR and DE or that they're mentioned too many times in this thread?

[bard]

i also listened to a lot of deftones

white pony is their best album, and definitely in my top 20 albums ever. so, so good

[IWasaCamera]

are you saying you listened to too much SAR and DE or that they're mentioned too many times in this thread?
Wish I could say the latter but I'd be lying.

[handlikesecret]

Wish I could say the latter but I'd be lying.
woah, i just got a picture in my mind of you attending a Dashboard show and screaming the words of "Vindicated" with everyone else...weird.

it's okay though. if it's any consolation, you're ahead of me; as i still listen to both those albums. :shrug:

Nah, didn't care for Vindicated era Dashboard. I was all about Swiss Army and Places so I'd have been wailing "don't you seeeeee, don't you seeeeeeee that the charaaaaaade is overrr???"

[Charles777]

Freshman - Louder Now (Taking Back Sunday)
Sophmore - Where You Want To Be (Taking Back Sunday)
Junior - Drunk Like Bible Times (Dear and The Headlights)

[Charles777]

um... no. Make Belive (Excluding Beverly Hills) is their best. Perfect Situation is their best song.
Ugh, Beverly Hills makes me want to hop off a bridge

[handlikesecret]

Nah, didn't care for Vindicated era Dashboard. I was all about Swiss Army and Places so I'd have been wailing "don't you seeeeee, don't you seeeeeeee that the charaaaaaade is overrr???"
haha excellent. and i'd agree that the whole band thing with Vindicated, that's definitely where they started going downhill.

[IWasaCamera]

haha excellent. and i'd agree that the whole band thing with Vindicated, that's definitely where they started going downhill.
In my 16-year-old brain, incorporating the full band was an enormous affront to Dashboard's essence. No longer acoustic, no longer as melodramatic, no longer as appealing.

[handlikesecret]

in my currently 16-year-old brain, i'd agree.

[bard]

in my 22 year old brain, acoustic guys selling out is lame

[Firefly1628]

Hmm it would have to be:

Middle school- Dude Ranch,
enema of the state,

hooray for boobies (haha i know i was in 8th grade haha)


High school- 40 oz to freedom

Not at all, that was the #1 cd that got me through high school. it came out 3 days after my first offical heart break haha. it kept me sane

[avaluvr1]

I think all my music is what keeps me from going crazy at school. im actually in school right now listening to my iPod (teacher out of room) and I'm listening to Hearts Burst Into Fire by Bullet For My Valentine :)

[Firefly1628]

[gnarly sky]

High School: Brand New - Your Favorite Weapon, Taking Back Sunday - Tell All Your Friends, Brand New - Deja Entendu

College: Senses Fail - Still Searching, Aesop Rock - Labor Days, Immortal Technique - Revolutionary Vol. 1, 2.

(And Deja and YFW still, to this day, has a strong rotation.)

[gnarly sky]

They love spiders and leaves.

[Regards]

lol, My progression has been wierd to say the least.

Freshman year: System Of A Down- Self-Titled, RATM- Self Titled
Sophmore year: Korn- Self Titled, Deftones- Around The Fur
Junior year- At The Drive-in- In/Casino/Out, Glassjaw- Worship & Tribute
Senior year- At The Drive-in- Relationship of Comand, Emery- Weak's End
1st year of college- Devil Wears Prada- whatever their first cd was called, Underoath- Define The Great Line

now its pretty much all the mwY albums & Lifestory:Monologue.

lol, looking back on what I could've been listening to is sad.

[kearn1tm]

I was in high school from 2001-2005, and was enamored with Deja Entendu, Tell All Your Friends, Full Collapse and Take This to Your Grave until the end of junior year. That summer, I fell hard for The Shins and Wilco, ensuring that Chutes Too Narrow and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot dominated my playlist.

Those six albums were the works that I played the most frequently and meant the most to me as a teen. My tastes have evolved greatly since (though I'm still fond of those Fall Out Boy muppets, The Shins are fun for a listen, and Yankee Hotel has taken on greater importance as I've aged).

[|adr3naLine|]

Just about everything Blink-182 has been playing all high school. If I had to pick one I'd say Untitled or Dude Ranch.

[Bloodsucker II]

i can't think of a better album than Catch For Us The Foxes.

out of any time period, genre, whatever.... that album is number one

epic win! I just got this on vinyl yesterday, it's awesome.



As for high school, Misery Signals - Controller, As Cities Burn - Son, I Loved You At Your Darkest/Come Now Sleep and mewithoutYou - Brother, Sister/Catch For Us The Foxes have helped me out during school.

Edit: I forgot Brand New - The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me and Underoath - Lost in The Sound Of Separation

[mycuban]

Thursday- War All the Time
Brand New-Deja Entendu
Cursive- The Ugly Organ
Elliott Smith-Either/Or
City & Colour- S/T
MewithoutYou- Brother, Sister

Say Anything- ...Is a Real Boy

[Jefferson Rank]

Ugh, Beverly Hills makes me want to hop off a bridge

I know, right? I've just heard it way to much. 2005, that's all I remember people around me playing. Eventually I got to a point where I didn't like Weezer in general, just because of that song.

I got over it though.

[Cody Nelson]

Lydia's 'Illuminate' has been one of the only things I listen to for the past two years. And The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me.

[zeropunk16]

High School: AFI - Sing the Sorrow, Alkaline Trio - Good Mourning and Co&Ca - IKSOSE:3

Yeah, we're definitely new best friends.

[Pat k]

High school was easy and fun, so I didn't rely on records to "get me through." I listened to a lot of Alkaline Trio, a lot of Gorilla Biscuits, New Found Glory, and then Simon and Garfunkel.

[murrich]

2007 - Vheissu

2008 - Rain Dogs, Bridge Over Troubled Water.

[ohheroine]

High school was all about North, Everything in Transit, The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most, Full Collapse, and Frogstomp. I discovered so much good music back then.

College is mainly tjust he glass passenger

both Everything In Transit and The Glass Passenger would be on my list too. amazing albums.

[Cody Nelson]

Haha! I'm down with that. :-)

[Kbm600]

Lydia's Illuminate helped me through most of last year. As a whole however, .Moneen.'s The Red Tree and Finch's What It Is To Burn have always been depended on for the past couple of years.

[bard]

Fixed.
i know, i know. i just put norma jean cause it's easier.... that's how i have it in my iPod

[spriltsc]

a day to remember- homesick, has been getting me through this year.

[xJesusFreakx]

i know, i know. i just put norma jean cause it's easier.... that's how i have it in my iPod

Yeah, Norma Jean is more recognizable, and it's pretty much the same thing, but someone had to be the douche to point it out. ;-)
