Best Non Metal Albums of All Time.

[Alter]

All the blink albums, minus their last one.

Spoon-Kill The Moonlight
What a good record.

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

Ayreon - Into the Electric Castle

A couple of parts are briefly "Metal" but it's 95% modern Prog Rock.

Other albums are...
Holdsworth, Johansson & Johansson - Heavy Machinery
Steve Vai - The Ultra Zone
Urbal Beats 1
Aerosmith - Toys in the Attic
Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced
Porcupine Tree - In Absentia

 

[False Joe]

Well after this:

All American Hi-Fi albums.
The first two Sum 41 albums.

I assumed this was more about opinion that fact.

 

[Vimana]

Yeah it was opinion. Hell I used to hate those bands. I used to hate all Rock. I know people that would disagree with everything in this thread.

Estradasphere are cool

Have to check out this Bacamarte thingy

 

[The Ozzman]

Pink Floyd - The Wall or Animals. It's close when it comes to both albums
Van Halen - 1984
Stevie Ray Vaughan - Couldn't Stand the Weather

 

[mydadisjewish]

Estradasphere are cool

Have to check out this Bacamarte thingy

Yes....do. Tell me what you think.

 

[v2kv]

Pink Floyd - The Wall or Animals.

Hmmm, I'd say Pink Floyd too but more along the lines of Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here, because although Animals is an amazing album, it's just not as complete as the two I just mentioned. As for The Wall, same thing, although I prefer Animals over it anyways.

Other albums for me are:

The Velvet Underground - Loaded

Led Zeppelin - Houses Of The Holy

Jimi Hendrix - Axis: Bold As Love

King Crimson - In The Court Of King Crimson

Boston - Boston

and many more

 

[The Ozzman]

What the fuck do you mean The Wall isn't complete?

It's a concept album with a great story attached to it. You are on crack.

Emerson, Lake, & Palmer "Trilogy"

While that is a good album, Brain Salad Surgery blows it out of the water. No competition IMO.
