Perfect Albums

[Lateralus14]

I thought I disliked his vocals because they're just a bunch of shrill yells that don't sound evil at all, but hey, you could be right.

Why does Death always start fights in here?

 

[Savern]

Getting this back on track... It's difficult to call an album perfect but ones for me that come close would be

Enslaved - Below the lights
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Tool - Lateralus
Agalloch - Pale Folklore, The Mantle
Blind Guardian - Nightfall in Middle Earth
Cynic - Focus
InFlames - The Jester Race
Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
Alice in Chains - Dirt
Pink Floyd - Darkside of the Moon
Depeche Mode - Violator
King Crimson - ITCOTKC

 

[Lateralus14]

I don't know, why do you have to keep acting like they're awesome?

I should really start using the quote button in such active threads..

Nice list, especially Enslaved, Agalloch, AiC and Pink Floyd.

I do not get the hate for Death. Symbolic is godly. TSOP is pretty good, and has some godlike soloing. Chuck's vocals simply don't bother me, tbh.

.

Symbolic is one of my favorite albums of all time, TSOP is up there as well.

Enslaved - Below the lights
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Tool - Lateralus
Agalloch - Pale Folklore, The Mantle
Blind Guardian - Nightfall in Middle Earth
Cynic - Focus
InFlames - The Jester Race
Katatonia - Brave Murder Day
Alice in Chains - Dirt
Pink Floyd - Darkside of the Moon
Depeche Mode - Violator
King Crimson - ITCOTKC

Minus BG and Cynic, great list

 

[DarkBliss]

a few off the top of my head:

Camel - Moonmadness (perfection)

Great album and band.

 

[Lateralus14]

It'll probably be my favorite album in a few months once I stop blasting Fas out of fear for going deaf. In the last couple of months I finally decided it > any Pink Floyd album.

 

[Lateralus14]

Spinnin' it now

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Death is right up there with Cannibal Corpse for most overrated DM bands ever...

I will go out of my way to listen to Human every once and a while... but nothing more.

You sir should be hung upside down and beaten.

 

[Belligerent]

Great album and band.

Very unique band. Camel's keyboards/synth and guitarwork are mesmerizing. Granted, Andrew Latimer's vocals are not the best, but it hardly makes a difference since their music makes up for it.

 

[DarkBliss]

Mirage is my favorite but I enjoy a considerable chunk of their discography almost equally.

 

[Lateralus14]

I love his vocals on Moonmadness, very atmospheric whereas other prog vocalists can be just downright poppy.

Moonmadness > Mirage = Snow Goose >> Rain Dances > Camel >>>>> All else for me.

 

[WCannibal]

There are no "perfect" albums but I can name some that come close.

Novembre - Materia
Opeth - My Arms Your Hearse
Between the Buried and Me - The Great Misdirect
Nokturnal Mortum - Lunar Poetry
Death - Symbolic
Dark Lunacy - The Diarist
Swallow the Sun - New Moon
Candlemass - Nightfall
Communic - Waves of Visual Decay
Zero Hour - The Towers of Avarice
Bergthron - Leben und Lebenswille
Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness
Sacramentum - Far Away From the Sun

 

[Krow]

You sir should be hung upside down and beaten.

Hold up there Sheila... I didnt say they were bad.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Queensryche's Promised Land. The intro is easily skipped, and the rest is easily ejaculatable.

 

[Hail The Wizard!]

Haha

 

[The Butt]

I don't know, why do you have to keep acting like they're awesome?

Like Tool amirite

 

[Doomguy]

Every single track is perfect. I seriously can't think of a way that they can make this album any better.
