Let me preface this by saying I'm generally not a fan of emo, punk, or anything of the sort... but a few of the albums in here may speak contrary to that, especially the first one.
Brand New - Deja Entendu By far, every single track on this album is intricately thought-out and sonically fleshed-out. The blend of songs, subtle shifts of style and the emotion of it all is really quite stunning. Leaps and bounds ahead of their first album Your Favorite Weapon, and definitely beyond anything their fellow hugely-popular emo band Taking Back Sunday ever wrote. I recommend this album to anyone. Idiot Pilot - Strange We Should Meet Here While there are two tracks that I find far less enjoyable than the rest (Les Lumieres and A Light at the End of the Tunnel) they still fit perfectly into the flow and mix of the album. With equal amounts abstract, acoustic, contemporary, industrial, electronica, post-hardcore, noise, and screamo, this album, from song one, takes you through so many auditory twists and turns it may leave you feeling ethereal and at the same time, animalistic. The lyrics, once you find out what they actually are, will blow your mind. Considering the album is about a man with memories of things that never happened who lived a life that never existed, I don't find that surprising. Two 18-year-old guys made this masterpiece. Chew on that for a while. Tool - Ænima Take all the core elements of what rock, metal, and just music in general is supposed to be, a hugely talented band, and quite a bit of Jungian theory, wrap it up in a neatly-arranged, perfectly-composed package and you'll get Ænima. Every track throws note after note of carefully controlled sonic assault at you, but the most notable tracks are "Forty-Six & 2," "Ænema," and perhaps "H" or "Eulogy," difficult to decide between them. E.S. Posthumus - Unearthed It's difficult to say what makes this completely original piece of musical art work, but imagine if you can what classical music would sound like if it were revived into today's society. Listen to it. There are a few others I could listen to repeatedly and never tire of them, but these are my top three, easily. How ya doing, buddy?
