Title: Your Favorite Studio Album By Every Band You Like!
Post by: The Letter M on September 07, 2010, 09:09:26 PM
Okay, so we've had top 5's and rankings and so on and so forth, but here let's list our favorite album by each band/artist we like! For the sake of space, please do NOT include pictures of album covers. I know it looks cool when it's a top 5, but it might get unruly in here if someone posts a reply with 40 album covers in it. Stick to typed lists please! :tup

And for the indecisive, you can list one or two alternatives from your favorite bands... I'm sure I will! ;)

Also, your lists don't have to be in any particular order - if you want to do Top to Bottom, sure... or chronological... or alphabetical... or by genre... whatever you want! It's your list! And I ask that you please use the BAND/ARTISTS - ALBUM format so we can all easily read through everyone's lists. And as the subject says, this is for Studio Albums! No live or compilations, or EPs/singles/etc. etc., however, you can include special/deluxe/limited editions of studio albums, if you like!

Rush - A Farewell To Kings or Hemispheres
Porcupine Tree - Fear Of A Blank Planet (LP Version/Tracklisting which includes the Nil Recurring tracks)

For every band I like? I can't even begin to imagine the size of my list if I had time to do this.

Exactly. Perhaps if I should limit myself to my Top 20 bands or something.

I'll think about this during the next hours to see if I can do this.

You're asking for the moon here, there's no way I could pick a favorite Kaki King album.

Dreaming of Revenge is great but my favorite will always be "Legs To Make Us Longer" although "Everybody Loves You" Has Joi on it which is my favorite KK song.

You would just have to use more exclusive criteria, such as only using bands that you own their entire discographies.  On vinyl, cd, 8-track, tape, and digitally.

Then if that's still too much, use only bands whose album and song titles and track orders you have memorized, when those albums came out (either by just year or year/month or even by specific date), and who played what on each album.
