Northern Sage Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Unbelievably well composed songs written out of amazing poetry. The structure of the album is near perfect. Some of my favorite Dylan songs of all time (Tangled up in Blue, Simple Twist of Fate, You're a Big Girl Now, Shelter from the Storm). My only problem is Meet me in the Morning, which is just… annoying. Some of the best live recordings I've ever heard. These versions of See the Sky About to Rain and Hurricane outclass the studio versions by far. I don't even know what to say here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0SS Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 --- Some great albums here. I'd say Blood on the Tracks is probably my second favourite Dylan album, although I do like Blonde on Blonde immensely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L0SS Posted February 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Seems to be a lot of dark/metal music within the community, that's pretty interesting. I could never get into metal, so I can't really judge on that front. Tyler the Creator is solid though. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is a cracker, even if it's not quite my bag. It's nice to see a range of tastes here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Rai Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 While I wouldn't call any of the latter three the best albums I know (The ArchAndroid is miraculously good though), these are the four albums are can enjoy in full. This mostly shows two things: 1. I really like concept albums 2. I really like city-based concept albums. Other enjoyable stuff is Paul Simon's Graceland, Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Disclosure's Settle, and Frank Ocean's nostalgia, ULTRA. All of which have been mentioned. None of the rock music I like really shines though in this list, but while I can appreciate their musicality a lot, they don't come across as the most enjoyable for me. Strange one.

Zauls Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Underworld - Adagio Paradise Lost - Symphony X The Odyessy - Symphony X The Divine Wings Of Tragedy - Symphony X Dominate - Adagio Archangels In Black - Adagio Colony - In Flames The Power Within - Dragonforce Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia - Dimmu Borgir Avenged Sevenfold - Avenged Sevenfold Waking the Fallen - Avenged Sevenfold The Poison - Bullet For My Valentine The Black Parade - My Chemical Romance My music taste is relatively limited. I go for symphonic/neo-classical metal most of the time. That can be Black/Death/Power metal. A7X, Bullet and MCR are just some old favourites from years ago.

Sunn O))) Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Most of my albums are metal or rock because I could never get into hip hop, or other popular genres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Murphy ☆ Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 This album is legendary and has always been my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0SS Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 This album is legendary and has always been my favorite. Vaudeville Villian is his best, I reckon. Also Moog, I can't contemplate how I forgot to add The Velvet Underground and Nico to my list. I should be hanged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Murphy ☆ Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Vaudeville Villian is his best, I reckon. I couldn't get into any of his Viktor Vaughn stuff. Although Ode to Road Rage and Change the Beat are very nice songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0SS Posted February 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 I couldn't get into any of his Viktor Vaughn stuff. Although Ode to Road Rage and Change the Beat are very nice songs They are. Although obviously Mm... Food is a great album, I can see why people would view it as his best. I don't listen to him an awful lot, but he's definitely done some brilliant stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 As much as I like to tout myself as a music enthusiast, there is a relatively small amount of music I am familiar with. That being said... [spoiler Big pictures] [/spoiler] A few of my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agro Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 I'm rarely a fan of an entire album (for example, from the album Welche posted, I like the Wombat's "Tokyo - Vampires & Wolves". And a few of my favorite songs have all come from albums that I didn't like any other songs on or were just plain singles. (Madeon's "The City" and The Cold War Kids' "Miracle Mile") Simply from this past few years, in no particular order: Around the Sun - Monarchy Viva la Vida - Coldplay The Electric Lady - Janelle Monaé The Archandroid - Janelle Monaé Channel ORANGE - Frank Ocean Gossamer - Passion Pit Manners - Passion Pit Contra - Vampire Weekend Some Nights - Fun. Tourist History - Two Door Cinema Club Beacon - Two Door Cinema Club Wake Up - Youngblood Hawke Night Visions - Imagine Dragons Timez are Weird These Days - Theophilus London Symphony Soldier - The Cab Rokstarr - Taio Cruz (probably a guilty pleasure) Discovery - Daft Punk Random Access Memory - Daft Punk Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smesh Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Pharrell's new album is probably going to be one of my favorites. I'm suprised to see some love for Kanye here doe, I mean this is YCM.
