Five you say …sure I can do that!

Back in Black-AC/DC.
A Moon Shaped Pool-Radiohead.
Chill Out-KLF.(Possibly best album ever).
Wish You Were Here-Pink Floyd.
Rage Against The Machine.
Hollywood-Marylin Man……..Goddammit that’s six.
Mezzanine-Massive Atta……ARRRRRGGGGG.

*Runs away from computer whilst learning how to count*

from your posts on music threads, I think we have similar tastes

It’s called “quality” 🙂

Off the top of my head, will most likely change daily:

Rudimentary Peni – Death Church
Steel Pulse – Handsworth Revolution
Sublime – 40oz to Freedom
Dag Nasty – Can I Say
Chumbawamba – Pictures of Starving Children

Impossible but here goes.

Bowie – Hunky Dory
Stone roses – Stone Roses
The Beastie Boys – Hello Nasty
The Beatles – Rubber Soul
Sasha and Digweed – Renaissance

Gomez – Bring it On
Pink Floyd -Dark side of the Moon
U2 – Joshua Tree
Emiliana Torrini – Love in a Time of Science
Sneaker Pimps – Becoming X

wrecking ball
the river
the rising
live 75 85
born in the usa

Pixies – Surfa Rosa
Primal Scream – Screamadelica
Nick Drake – Five Leaves Left
Bowie – Hunky Dory
Nuggets – Various Artists

Seems Hunky Dory is the Bowie of choice. It’s a very close call but I chose Ziggy. Maybe the highs are higher on HD but Ziggy is just great all the way through ( and it has Moonage Daydream!)

posted by accident before i’d finished my list

Breeders – Pod
The Levellers – A Weapon Called The Word
Nirvana – MTV Unplugged in New York
REM – Out of Time
Various – CD 88 (Indie Top 20)

Ooh Screamadelica is a good shout.

Might have to sub that into my list.

the libertines – up the bracket
the smiths – the queen is dead
the jam – setting sons
the specials – the specials
the smiths – the smiths

Counting Crows – August and everything after
Pink Floyd – The Final Cut
Iron Maiden – Seventh Son
Tracy Chapman – Tracy Chapman
Pet Shop Boys – Disco

I spent 6 weeks in Iceland in the summer of 1995 on a Geology fieldtrip. We each took Walkman’s and a couple of cassettes. I can safely say that the Cranberries’ ‘No Need to Argue’ and Pulp’s ‘Different Class’ would NOT be taken with me to a desert island.

Pixies – Doolittle
Propellerheads – Decksanddrumsandrockandroll
Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here
Carter USM – 30 Something
Alabama 3 – Exile on Coldharbour Lane

Oh, and The Beatles, Best of the Beatles </partridge mode>

edit: maybe Portishead – Dummy instead of 30 Something. Or record them onto a C60, one on each side 😀

Finally managed to get tickets for Leftism 20 year tour at lunchtime after clicking all morning.

Then realised that my whole life has turned into a Daily Mash “middle age man tries to reclaim youth via seeing bands who’s heyday was 20 years ago”

Tickets so far this year for Leftfield, Stone Roses and De La Soul – bring on the baggies!

A good way to kill your love of a great album, but…
Blue – Joni Mitchell
Bringing It All Back Home – Dylan
King Of America – Elvis Costello
Sign ‘O’ The Times-Prince
Everybody Knows This Is Now here – Neil Young
Impossible task of course, I couldn’t even choose a top 50 if this were real

Chameleons – Script of the Bridge
The Damned – Black Album
Spiritualized – Ladies and Gentleman
Suede – Dog man Star
Pete and the pirates – One Thousand Pictures

Could well be a different list next week, though the Chameleons would remain.

I can give you my as of right now 5, but it’ll have changed by the next time I blink.

Portishead – Dummy
Banks – The Altar
Death Cab for Cutie – Plans
The XX – XX
Years & Years – Communion

……. already thought of more that could go on the list

Hmm, lots of indie fans in here.
My picks off the top of my head, sure there’s loads of great ones I forgotten.

NIN – The downward spiral / Things falling apart (can’t pick)
Motorhead – Overkill
Slayer – Decade of aggression
Springsteen – darkness on the edge of town
Bonnie prince billie – I see a darkness

“middle age man tries to reclaim youth via seeing bands who’s heyday was 20 years ago”

I think you’ll find thats quite normal. Don’t get it myself. 😛

This is difficult has to be something you won’t get bored with and some variety for different moods.

Gomez Bring it On

John Martyn – Solid Air

Lateralus – Tool
Everyone into Position – Oceansize
