music MLP Forums' Greatest albums of all time (Rules in the OP)

[Treeboy 418]

Silly me, I haven't nominated Ever Forthright's self-titled debut yet. It's one I and Twiliscael both have an incredibly justified affinity for.

 

[Soundgarden 2,758]

If we're going to nominate Grunge, we got to go back to it's roots. I am of course talking about The Pixies

 

I nominate their debut album "Surfer Rosa"

[Treeboy 418]

Silly Neighvana, that's the EP, not the album.

 

Next nomination is going to be Madvillain's "Madvillainy." My favorite hip hop album of all time. Basically what a really gritty comic book would sound like.

[Twiliscael 3,960]

I've decided to nominate an album for this thread. That album is Everything Goes Numb by Streetlight Manifesto.

 

3rd wave ska, and basically a revival of the genre. It's both an entry-level ska album, but also regarded as one of the most influential and important in the past 15 years. 

 

[Treeboy 418]

Continuing with my prog nomination stint, I'll go with "Catch Thirtythree" by Meshuggah. Another one from my top 10 all time records.

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

Silly me not nominating The Mantle by Agalloch, an amazing Post-Metal/Black Metal album that I love to death. Actually it's one of my all-time favorite albums.

[Twiliscael 3,960]

Another album I'd like to recommend is Strapping Young Lad's City. It's widely considered to be one of the best metal albums of all time.

 

 

Devin Townsend is a musical god.

[Soundgarden 2,758]

My next nomination will be The Pixies's masterpiece "Doolittle". The foundation of all future Grunge and Indie Pop and Kurt Cobain's main inspiration

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

I think that we will need to get some Massive Attack on this list, I'll go for their album Mezzanine. Definitely a must have album.

[Thunderchild 875]

Ah yes-The first album on my list would be a fairly new addition to their catalog-namely 'Inferno' by Motorhead.

 

Pioneers of British metal, and one of my favorite bands of all time.

[Le Kvlt Dawn 2,364]

Silly Neighvana, that's the EP, not the album.

 

 

What are you talking about? What did I nominate that's an EP?

 

You know what? I'm going to nominate an EP now, I'm nominating Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney.

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

We only have one Opeth album on there, that must be fixed right now, Im gonna nominate Still Life since Im listening to that album right now.

[Thunderchild 875]

What about 'Kill 'Em all' by Metallica?

 

Was originally going to be titled 'Metal Up Your Ass', and was going to have an album cover featuring a toilet with a sword coming out of it.

 

Picked this up on vinyl in the mid '80s-was in a bargain bin. Great album.

[Le Kvlt Dawn 2,364]

We only have one Opeth album on there, that must be fixed right now, Im gonna nominate Still Life since Im listening to that album right now.

NICE, remember YOLO = You obviously love Opeth. Oh and btw, my bro is taking me to Amoeba. I'm all happy right now, I don't know what to buy...

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

Dont expose Opeth to any sort of YOLO. And you shouldnt buy every single Converge, Opeth, Nine Inch Nails, or any Black Metal albums there, or else you will make me jelly of you.

 

Also nominating Ghost Reveries by Opeth to keep this post relevant

[Freewave 1,145]

Let's get the classic The Cure's Disintegration up on here. Because it's that awesome. Yeah. More, stuff, Stupid 100 character rule.

Aww....damn it I cant believe that I didnt think of nominating The Cure, Disintegration easily being one of my most favorite albums

 

Anyways I wanna nominate another Opeth album, this time being Ghost Reveries.

[Thunderchild 875]

Another one would be 'Rust In Peace' by Megadeth-one of the 3 thrash albums that basically defined the mid '80s, the other 2 being Master Of Puppets and Reign In Blood. Rust is a close run against the other two, but I think it just edges them out.

[Kazuki Fuse 534]

I'll add Destroyer 666 "Unchain the Wolves". A true masterpiece of black/thrash. Anti-Christian, pro-heathen, with solid musicianship and? good energy to back up the message.

 

 

This is the album that got me into extreme metal, circa 2007.

Eeyup I'm going to definitely buy an Opeth album.

 

Speaking of Opeth, I would like nominate Orchid by Opeth. Because I love Opeth and I love that Opeth album.

[Twiliscael 3,960]

Best Opeth album is My Arms, Your Hearse.

Nominating that.

 

The lyrics are all poetic on that album.

"It was me staring through the looking glass..."

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

Best Opeth album is My Arms, Your Hearse.

Nominating that.

 

Damn...good choice, I was about to nominate that one, oh well to keep the Opeth going I'm gonna nominate Deliverance. After this nomination I'll think of something else other than Opeth to put on the list

[Woohoo 34,253]

My next nomination is my second favorite Iron Maiden and their only concept album (I think...) "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son", try saying that ten times fast!

[Le Kvlt Dawn 2,364]

Damn...good choice, I was about to nominate that one, oh well to keep the Opeth going I'm gonna nominate Deliverance. After this nomination I'll think of something else other than Opeth to put on the list

Dang, I was going to nominate Deliverence :/

 

Oh well, I'll just nominate Human by Death because who doesn't like progressive death metal?

 

Shit, I need to update the list...

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

Well there isn't much electronic music on here, so I'm going to nominate Until The Quiet Comes by Flying Lotus, easily one of the best albums of 2012
