. Because I listen to their songs from each album, not by albums, I love songs from each album. I'm a fan of Hold it Now Hit it but I also love Intergalactic. But then again So Watcha' Want is good, and so is Triple Trouble.
Easy choice. The wonderful Minutemen. 43 songs of pure genius

Ok ok im really freaking out now....ARE YOU ME???Lev The Red said:like the title says, What is your all-time favorite album? not artist, album.
mine is Demon Days by Gorillaz.
before Demon Days, i had never (and still haven't) found an album where i've liked EVERY song on it. it's also one of the few albums i also own a physical copy of, along with my Boston vinyls.
I saw the title on the thread, and was about to post exactly what you wrote. Ninja'd by the OP to the max...
Can we get married? Or at the very least, friends with benefits? Ill settle for best friends if that is all you want.

You're Living All Over Me by Dinosaur jr...
click on it... you know you want to...<.<
The Human Equation by Ayreon.
The whole album (20 songs) is a story about a guy in a coma and his fights with his emotions and attempts to wake up. The album explores his past (the song about how he became a bully at school is fantastic (Day 8: School) and how he met his wife (Day 11: Love)) and the circumstances of what put him in the coma.
The finale (Day 20: Confrontation) is just awesome!

American Rubicon by Cobra Skulls.
17 tracks of perfection. It's consistently amazing, yet incredibly varied at the same time (which is what ruined its successor, Agitations. All the songs sounded the same to me, minus "Six Degrees"), and it's just a hell of a lot of fun to listen to.
If you have the slightest interest in punk/punkabilly, look into this album. It's a masterpiece.

Nice to see another Mastodon fan. OT Crack the Skye by Mastodon, followed very closely by The Hunter, also by mastodon.CrashBang said:

Either Pearl Jam's Ten...
or Bayside's Bayside...
I can't quite decide.
Edit: Actually, Conversation Piece by A Lot Like Birds ranks quite high up there, as well.

It's just so beautiful. It's Finnish symphonic power metal with elements of folk, celtic, old western, blues, jazz, theater, arabian, etc. Simply wonderful.
This is what got me into Nightwish. The opening song is a 14 min epic. Give it a shot.
We are favorite album bros.DustyDrB said:Mine is Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco
Most of the tracks have a traditional folk/folk-rock sound, but with a undertone of chaos that sometimes threatens to explode and sabotage the song. That comfort-chaos dynamic still mesmerizes me, even after listening to the album so much.
For me it would probably be either:
In An Aeroplane Over The Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel
or
Lonesome Crowded West by Modest Mouse
I can see how people could dislike either of them, but to me they are amazingly emotional.

I love those two albums too. Annette really took them to a whole new level for me.Scorekeeper said:
For me, it's a dead heat between Coldplay's "Parachutes" (their first album, basically all acoustic [and before they got super annoying, in my opinion]), and Grandaddy's "Under the Western Freeway", which is an album that came way out of left field for me. I can never decide between the two...

It wasn't the first one that came to mind, but yea, even though i don't like every Song (mainly "All Alone" is what i tend to skip), it still gotta be among my favorites.
Other than that:
Apocalyptica - Reflections (even though not in the Revised Version). I just love what Apocalyptica does, even though i was disappointed of "Apocalyptica" and "7th Symphony". Reflections wins out very closely against the albums not mentioned.
Muse - Absolution, i like the theme, i like Muse, and i like most of the Songs here
Wolfmother...i just like EVERY Song of this Album, weirdly discovered not through "Woman" (i knew the Song, i liked it, but it didn't make me seek out the Band), but through IGN recommending "Joker & The Thief" as Rock Band DLC. When i was on a weeklong trip in spain, i listened to NOTHING ELSE, and i still very much enjoy the Songs.
and my ALL TIME FAVORITE
Ayreon - The Human Equiation
I very much like the idea of concept albums, and as such, i love the output of Ayreon as a project. I also like the usual "weird sci fi" stuff, but "The Human Equiation" is just so touching and relatable as a story, paired with great, and for a lack of a less-overused term, epic songs by great GREAT artists.
It's just awesome.
