Metallica - AJFA
Dream Theater - SFAM
Jeff Buckley - Grace
Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home
Sigur Ros - Takk...
Keith Jarrett - The Köln Concert

My most listened album in the last ten years is almost definitely Ben Howard's I Forget Where We Were.

I would also add that I have constantly listened to The Grateful Dead a LOT since 2010, and the same with Damien Rice since about 2007 or 2008. But I listen to little if any studio material by either.

SFAM

Blur: The Great Escape and Leisure

Hard to say. I imagine it's one of these:

Metallica - Master of Puppets
Metallica - ...And Justice For All
Iron Maiden - Powerslave
Rush - 2112
Yes - Close to the Edge
Robert Wyatt - Rock Bottom

Most likely the classic Maiden albums, probably 7th Son.

Master of Puppets or ...And Justice for All probably although with the amount of Dream Theater I've listened to since discovering them, Octavarium or Scenes from a Memory might have surpassed them.

Almost certainly KISS - Destroyer or Eric Clapton - Unplugged. For a long while I had a car with a cassette player and I had a long commute to and from school every day and those were a couple of the only tapes I owned so they got a LOT of rotation. And in addition to that, I used to listen to Destroyer before school pretty much every day in tenth grade, so really that's probably my answer right there though I'd like to be able to say it was something that Steven Wilson had his hand in creating. Reality is, the musical genius behind it was Gene Simmons (and friends). :lol :hat I still love me some KISS.

Rush-Hemispheres!  Without a doubt.

I bought it on a whim soon after it came out based on a review in one of those record club booklets they used to have in the 70's (remember those?  Get 6 albums for the price of 1 when you join the Columbia record club).  It described the "six part title track", and that sounded so cool to me, that I had to try it.  I was listening to Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Peter Frampton at the time and I was ripe for discovering something new.  I put it on my turntable and listened to the 3 minute long intro and was blown away by the music.  I had never heard such tight, intricate, complex music in my life.  Then Geddy started singing and I thought that was the most bizzare voice I had ever heard, yet I liked his voice.

I was immediately hooked on Rush, and remain a huge fan to this day.  They really opened my eyes to the world of progressive rock which led to obsessions with Yes, Genesis, Jethro Tull to a lesser extent, and finally to DT.

To this day, Rush and DT are my two favorite groups.

Misplaced Childhood by Marillion. Timeless. I never get bored with it, and I had the great pleasure to see Fish perform the entire album from start to finish in Newcastle upon Tyne, just two weeks ago. Brought tears to my eyes, don't mind admitting.

Great album. Saw them play it live at the time.

Same.  Saw them play the whole album opening up for Rush on the Power Windows tour.

Yup, I'd have to think it is Misplaced Childhood.  I'd have tears in my eyes if I saw Fish sing Misplaced Childhood too these days. (But for the wrong reasons.)

I'd really love for him to sing all of Feast Of Consequences though.

Now that it's been half a lifetime since I first heard it, Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory. I listened to tons of music before that, mostly chart-toppers, but this is really the album that started it all for me. Lots of history there, and it still sounds great.

Possibly Metallica's Black Album. By older brother played that a shit ton when I was a kid back in '91. Then I rediscovered it when I was about 20 and played it a shit ton more.

Dunno what else would be up there, maybe a Green Day album, International Superhits got a lot of plays from me and my mates over the years.

For me, it might actually be Images And Words.
Either that or UFO's Strangers In The Night.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

My best guess would be S&M by Metallica. Probably never came out of my car from release day in 1999 to when I got SFAM in 2003. Garage, Inc was up there as well and was probably in the rotation along with Load/Reload.

Other guesses would be something by Green Day (Dookie or Nimrod) or Weird Al (In 3-D, Bad Hair Day, or Running With Scissors).
I don't want MP playing with DT unless they were making a drummer change. If they let MM go and bring back MP, then fine, but no guest appearance please.
WELP.

For me it's probably Rush's Hemispheres, Dream Theater's Images and Words, and more recently Moving Pictures. Those are albums that I just constantly come back to and say "This is an amazing album"
I say more recently for Moving Pictures because we had a scratched CD before and I got the ReIssued vinyl to replace it and it's SOOOO good.
