Love it!

I also like Early Days and Latter Days (both Led Zeppelin), Dance of Death by Iron Maiden, Silent Alarm by Bloc Party, Mercury by Long-view, and How To Save A Life by The Fray.

Ok, that's more than one favorite album, but what the hell. At least I put the art as a spoiler...:indeed:

 

I suggest adding a 56K warning into the thread name.

U2 - Achtung Baby

6a00b8ea0738f31bc000c2252112ddf219-500pi

The greatest band alive's 90s rebirth came with this spectacular album.

 

Nirvana - Nevermind

B000003TA4.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

For the obvious reasons.

 

Arcade Fire - Neon Bible

Truly unique approach lead to a breathtaking album.

 

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium

The Peppers have only improved since BSSM, resulting in this perfect double album.

 

Pearl Jam - Ten

In some ways I prefer Pearl Jam's grunge approach to Nirvana's. Their overall work deserves credit, most notably their self-titled album, Vs., but most of all thisr debut.

Metal albums have the worst art ever. Tool gets the award for shittiest art work ever.

Well, it depends, most metal albums do have shit art, yeah, but that's mostly because record companies expect them to keep this stupid "metal" image. Alive or Just Breathing has great art in my opinion, as does ...And Justice For All.

 

Your criticism it totally irrelevant, and I don't get metal albums to gawp at the artwork, I get them for the music.

 

Also: Tool aren't a metal band.

I would disagree with the Peppers improving since BSSM, I love all their stuff but you should really listen to their earlier albums too, theres some amazing songs there, much more funky and dirty punk. Pearl Jams Ten is definately one of my faves too, I think I prefer Vs though slightly due to the fact that it dones't feel as overly produced as Ten does, vitalogy is amazing too.
