The Perfect CD

Sum 41 - All killer no filler. ~ I have no real reason for this cd. Maybe becuase It was the first CD I ever got, or maybe it was Pain for Pleasure. I Don't even like the genre at all, but this pops into my head.

Stratovarius - Elements Pt. 1 ~ This had the right mix og the classic Strat Power metal and Power ballads and such awesome things that Stratovarius is know for. This totally shows of Jens (Jans maybe?) Johansens skillz and versatility.

Liquid Tension Experiment - Liquid Tension Expereiment 1 ~ Universal Mind. Best track ever created.

Also, a Santana album comes to mind, but I can't remember the name. Has Oye Como Va on it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'm adding another cd to my list. I don't have it, but I have always wanted it.

Jaguares- Cuando la Sangre Galopa

How ya doing, buddy?

'Oye Como Va' first appeared on Abraxas, I believe. Great album, too.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Tool-Lateralus: One of the best cds to build on the success of Aenima.

Stabbing Westward-Whither Blister Burn + Peel: The best Stabbing Westward album.

That's all I can think of for now.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Weezer's Blue Album is the first one I got that was like this. I can still listen to it and enjoy every song on there.

Also, there is one album by Phil Collins, and one by Peter Gabriel, both of which my parents own, that I've listened to over and over and enjoy all of. I keep forgetting to copy them when I go back home.

I can think of a lot of CDs with one or two bad tracks and the rest amazing, but I'm having a very hard time thinking up CDs that were all good.

FELIPE NO

CDs that were all good, eh? With so much music, I still can’t even think of ten albums.

Eels –Beautiful Freak
Travis –The Man Who
Radiohead –OK Computer
Sarah McLachlan –Mirrorball

Cat Empire –The Cat Empire
Muse –Absolution
Mark Seymour –One Eyed Man
Sheryl Crow –Wildflower

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Can't believe I forgot OK Computer! Amazing album.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Dropkick Murphy's--Blackout: Not all of the songs were my favorite...maybe there was ONE song i didn't like, it's been a while, but overall the album had some of the best songs from the band.


The Offspring--Americana: Same reasons as the guy that posted about this on page 1.


Great Big Sea--Up: Nobody knows this band, it's excellent Newfoundland Folk/Celtic stuff.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm starting to believe Somewhere Along The Highway by Cult of Luna falls into this category.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Honestly my least favourite Del album, not that it's his fault. 3030 has it's moments, but after hearing it I just got the impression Automator was desperate to make another Dr Octagonecologyst. So this just sounds second best, or wrong, to me.

Myself, I'd choose Aenima by Tool, White Pony by Deftones, and Disintegration by The Cure. It's perhaps not my favourite Cure album, but I'd consider it the most perfect on a whole.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

DJ Shadow - Endtroducing... ( Fuck The Outsider )
Yukawa Shione - Yukawa Shione
Deftones - White Pony
Portishead - Dummy

The Human Equation by Ayreon.

Most amazing jew boots

OK. So I'm not the only one who hated The Outsider. However, Endtroducing is a fucking awesome album.

FELIPE NO

I'd have to say some Perfect CDs for me would have to be:

Boston - Boston
Disconnection Notice - Goldfinger
Moving Pictures - Rush
Attack Of The Clones Soundtrack - John Williams (if film scores count)

Otherwise I might go even as far to say that American Idiot by Green Day would qualify, although I listen to much less Green Day than the rest...

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Deftones - White Pony (the first version without "Back To School", since that song is probably their worst ever)

Weezer - Blue Album

Lostprophets - Start Something

pretty much any Jimmy Eat World album

any Queen album minus Hot Space and The Miracle

No Doubt - Return Of Saturn

The Smashing Pumpkins - both Siamese Dream and MCIS

Blur - Modern Life Is Rubbish

The Mars Volta - De-Loused In The Comatorium

Brand New - Deja Entendu

Lovedrug - Pretend You're Alive

Thrice - both The Illusion Of Safety and Vheissu

The Receiving End Of Sirens - Between The Heart And The Synapse

Modest Mouse - Lonesome Crowded West

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That's weird, I always had AOTC down as the weakest Star Wars soundtrack.

Really? I thought Back to School was a pretty good song. Its got a nice anthem feel to it.

Passenger is, to me, the weakest song on the album.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Back to School is pretty terrible. I know Chino was just trying to prove something to the record label execs, but it really wasn’t worth it. I fucking cringe when I hear that song.

I like Passenger, but Maynards vocals sound so close to straining in the second chorus, which is its only weakness to me. But if you just dislike the song altogether, that’s fine.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well personally, I think Pink Maggit is probably the best song they've ever done, ever. And when they re-released the album with Back To School on it, they just took a shit all over Pink Maggit with lyrics like "Stop that QUIT, all that QUIT, who ruined it? You did, NOW GRAB A NOTEBOOK AND A PEN!". I saw them at Family Values and everyone was really pissed that they didn't play that song, but I was thankful. Oh, and I reserved Saturday Night Wrist and got to meet the band. Chino is the coolest guy ever. But damn, Back To School, what was he thinking?

I love Passenger, but it sounds like shit live without Maynard. Instead of having Chi or someone fill in his vocals, they just replace Maynard's lines with instrumental parts, and it's really lacking.

I would have to say "Street Carp" is my favorite song by them, but I agree that Pink Maggit is an amazing song. The ending has differences lyrically then the chorus at the end of back to school which makes a huge differences in interpertation.

I still like passenger, but it just doesnt feel like a Deftones song to me. Alot of people hear it and love it, and then when they hear something else by Deftones they wonder what the fuck happened to them.

Im gonna grab "Saturday Night Wrist" when it hits. Im just hoping he didnt take too much influence along with him from his Team Sleep project.

FELIPE NO

Tubthumping- Chumbawumba

Good New for People Who Like Bad News- Modest Mouse

These CD styles i think are kind of similar but every song on both CDs are great.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

King Of Everything - Mojo-Black

They are a local band that play rock, they write their own songs and they played a gig for my birthday. Since February I've only missed 1 of their gigs.

Fallen - Evanescence

I actually didn't like Evanescence at first but then I kept hearing their songs and they got stuck in my head and I started to like them. So, I listen to the CD loads now.

Highest Hopes - Nightwish

My favourite song is Over The Hills And Far Away. They are different from most of the other things I listen to.

Under My Skin - Avril Lavigne

Yes, I know it's Avril Lavigne but I like the songs.

Nine Lives - Aerosmith

I've been a huge Aerosmith fan for a while and I think this is their best album, beacuse it has different themes throughout the songs.

The Best Of Me - Bryan Adams

I like this album because it's easy to listen to and I think Bryan Adams is a great singer.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I guess I'm really picky...there are quite a few albums that come very close to perfection in my mind, but I can only think of a couple of albums that I think are absolutely perfect.

Every song on Air's Moon Safari is beautiful...like a slice of fluffy dreamy cake. I love it no matter how many times I listen to the whole CD.

I'm always amazed by how much emotional power is in Funeral by The Arcade Fire. My heart beats in time with Rebellion (Lies) when I listen to it...and then shatters when In The Backseat starts. The music is beautiful and matches with the lyrics and singing perfectly.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Protest The Hero - Kezia
The entire album tells the story of a condemned woman(Kezia), through three seperate perspectives. The prison priest, the prison gaurd, and Kezia herself. There's also a finale track that wraps it all together. Incredible music, and an awesome story. (Picked this up after hearing Heretics & Killers, the second single from this album).

Vast - Visual Audio Sensory Theater
Picked this album up after reading a glowing review on it. Incredibly powerful album, each song more contorted and expansive in scope. Picked this up on release day, after watching the video for Touched on the Box, repeatedly.

Tech N9ne - Anghellic
Picked this up after getting his latest(at the time) album Absolute Power, and then hearing the single for Einstein. This is another concept album, wherein Tech explores Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory. Incredibly cool album, and if you're a fan of rap/hip-hop, this album probably blows most of what you've heard away. Fastest rapper on the planet, period.

Bloodhound Gang - One Fierce Beercoaster
Oneof the funniest albums I've ever listened to. I can still, to this day, listen straight through and laugh. I heard the single for Fire,Water, Burn, and immediately sought the album out.

Lastly, but not least,

Weezer - Blue Album
I'm going to make it clear, I'm not a fan of Weezer, aside from this album(and most of Pinkerton), I hate their catalog. But, this album is incredibly good, very nerdish, and just plain out easy to listen to. Do I even have to mention the single I heard before picking this up?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
