I'm probably the only person here who prefers Contemp. Jazz over Classic Rock, but I still really like Classic Rock.  I'm listening to Rush right now.

Lord Harris, nice Maiden album.  Azechiel, does Rush really count as classic rock?  I would have thought they'd be more prog.

dredg - Catch Without Arms



I don't know why dredg isn't more popular, especially among the Tool/Dream Theater/Pink Floyd crowd. All three of their albums rocked my existence, and their newest one was their best yet. Their music can easily be found at places like Best Buy, and they always seem to be on the edge of MTV2-ish popularity.

Consider this another loud proclaimation that Faith No More - Angle Dust is, without a doubt, the best album of all time. And, if it means anything, this thread was discussed with a panel of my closest friends who all agreed. There were some other nominations but they were soon quietened.

I'd like to express further support for Angel Dust.  If I didn't have my own reasons for choosing Hot Animal Machine, I would've gone with Angel Dust.  No, wait, scratch that.  Metallica's Ride The Lightning actually would've been choice #2.  But after Hot Animal Machine and Ride The Lightning, definitely Angel Dust.

Angel Dust.

I'd put them in the classic rock group, simply because they've been rocking for well over 30 years and can do whatever they wany, whenever they want (musically, anyway).  Though the music is definitely prog.  But so is King Crimson and Floyd, and they're couted as classic rock groups.

Indeed. 'Classic Rock' is a very fluid term, basically meaning any rock over a certain age. Hell, I've heard Iron Maiden, Metallica and even Nirvana played on classic rock radio stations before now.

King Crimson is counted as a classic rock group?  I never knew.

And I wouldn't consider Floyd 'prog' anyway, but that's an argument for another thread.

Also, the flood of support for Angel Dust makes me love humanity just a little bit more than I used to.

The only album that I've ever heard from start to finish at least 4 times:



Modest Mouse: The Moon & Antarctica

Yep, no question for me. It outclasses every other album I own so badly that I get confused as to how something so incredibly meaningful and cohesive could ever last fifty six minutes without being repetitive at all. The music is amazing, the transitions are great, and the lyrics are DYNAMITE. OK Computer is the only album for me which compares in the least bit, but even that just doesn't stand a chance.

I would burn my other two hundred CDs if in exchange I would get a CD as good as this one.

Muse - Origin of Symmetry

Anyone who thinks the Arctic Monkeys are the best band in Britain can go fuck themselves.

You have the finest taste in music i have seen in a long, long time.

Neil Young - Harvest

A hard choice to make since he has so many albums, many good. I second Rain Dogs too.

I thought about putting Harvest - it's easily the album I know best, but I think I've grown so used to it that it no longer has any real effect on me.  I still love it, mind, but there are a lot of other albums I reach for first.

Oh obscure local music, how I love thee. 


Malachi Constant, Infinite Justice

I can see why they haven't really gotten big just because their music is so far from what I can rationally see going mainstream, but that's part of why I like it so much. I've really never heard anything like it before.
