If you had to listen to ONE album over and over for the rest of Eternity.

[webthing]

*************WARNING BE CAREFUL WHICH ONE YOU PICK**************

You may be choosing your own hell. Eternity is a long time. I wouldn't want you to go insane after a week.

Runners-up on my list. ( as he goes back to his album collection)
Scorn - Elippsis
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Bruce Dickinson - Accident of brith
Def Leppard - High 'N' Dry

Dark Side of the Moon!

[Cylob]

The The - Soul Mining
*
Year - 1983
Genre: Alternative Pop/Rock, Post-Punk, Indie Rock, Punk-Pop, College Rock



An easy choice really. This album towers above all others.

[NJK]

far too much choises - hard and difficult to name one but this one should be the one

[Mike H.]

Everclear - So Much For The Afterglow
or maybe...
Michelle Branch - Hotel Paper

Of course, I'd actually have a burned compilation of Ogg files, but I'd sneak it in a regular CD case.

[DJ Egg]

Ridiculously tough, lol

Although you'd expect me to go for something by Hawkwind,
or one of those box set (10 CD's in one) jobbies...

I'd be very tempted to go for:

Tool - Aenima

[Cylob]

Tool?

Hmmmmmmmmmm.

You mean they're not an average nu-metal act?

[Mike H.]

They're not any kind of nu-metal act.

[Cylob]

C'mon, what are they then.

[LollipopLustKil]

They're more plain metal. Shit, even Alice Cooper is in love with them.

I'd have to pick: Pink Floyd - The Wall

[DJ Egg]

Tool are fucking awesome.
Nu-metal? I'd call it rock.
Genrecising is gh3y anyway
The best music cannot be labelled.
Average? Far far from it!

Aenima and Lateralus are without doubt two of the best rock albums ever (imho).
There's not many albums I can say I can listen to over and over again
in endless succession and never get tired of. :/

[Cylob]

This is what happens - 1,000 nu-metal and pop-punk bands come out of the US.

Among them are.... Tool.

Easilly lost in the tide. But thanks to others maybe not.

[LollipopLustKil]

Tool isn't "huge" or anything, because they don't show themselves. They remain hidden, no pictures, nothing taken for magazines, etc.

They don't feel the glamour has anything to do with music, which most bands SHOULD do, but don't.

[DJ Egg]

Tool have been around since the early 90's

(formed 1990, first release 1992).

One of the most original, innovative & influential rock bands of the modern age.

"Aenima" (1996) came straight into the US album chart at No.2 and
"Lateralus" (2001) straight in at No.1 in both USA and Canada.

Aenima

Quote:

AENIMA was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Recording Package.
"Aenima" won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance.

As I'm sure you must know, Maynard James Keenan is also the lead singer in A Perfect Circle.


Hey, I'm a great fan of quality electronica,
but you don't see me saying 1000's of non-descript, bland & cruddy electronic acts
come out of places like Detroit and Germany every day/week/year.
But they most certainly do.

[EDIT]

btw, I'm not sure what that last statement/paragraph has got to do with anything
Nothing at all, probably. It just sounded good at the time

[EDIT2]

ooh, Forty-Six & 2 in Cylob's playlist. Yay!

[gaekwad2]

[ScorLibran]

A question easily answered...

True, but these acts didn't invade the mainstream (and wash-away large portions of what was indie). I know it was the industry's doing, but I resent the legions of Green Day replicas. After all, they're the ones on the mic.

I work at a college. I see a typical group of.... students. One has a SlipKnot shirt, one Linkin Park, one Papa Roach, one Tool, and the obligatory Marilyn Manson weirdo tagging along the end.

Judging by the above posts, when I spot the next such group I can assume the dude in the Tool shirt is the one with taste.:

I'm off to do Tool.

Thanks all.

[Xerxes]

Of all CD's, the one that I listen to the most per month



Symphony numbers 1 & 2 is almost like something Beethoven and Mozart would write if forced to write in consensus together. The Straatskapelle Dresden renders them perfect.

Please don't forget the person in a polo shirt and dockers, sitting by himself on the bench. Who has no need to proclaim some "affilliation" with poorly appliqued' cloth labels of bands on their hooded sweatshirt.

[DJ Egg]

Nice choice Xerxes

Hmm... Tchaikovsky's complete symphonies. I could cope with that for eternity.
Not sure how many CD's there'd be in the box set though (2 or 3).
And as for Mozart. Hmm, 41 symphonies...

@ScorLibran
Animals is my favorite PF album too.
Not sure if I could cope with listening to it endlessly for all eternity though,
knowing full well that I could never commit suicide j/k

@Cylob
I know exactly what you mean, on all counts.
Anyway, hope you enjoy Tool


@webthing
Must say, this has been one of the toughest ones yet.

[Cylob]

Tough! Never!

Everyone has a favourite album, don't they?

[webthing]

@ Cylob Great Band. Really liking them. I can see you floating through space chilling to The The. Love the piano and harmonica. A great mix of Rock and jazz,blues.
Excellent Choice mate.

@spaceplay Live Rust is one of my favorite albums. One of the greatest rock albums ever.
What are you kidding me? I used to listen to this one over and over. Another good choice.

@deadsanchez, LollipopLustKil, ScorLibran, 3 different Floyd albums all ready amazing. Fantastic band. My favorite Pink Floyd album is Wish You Were Here. Great choices.

@Xerxes Probably the sanest choice here.

@DJ Egg I was into Tool for sometime. I'm going to take a new look at them. Great stuff. Did you make your choice yet? I didn't yet. I going to break-out my headphones. And do some HEAVY-DUTY headphone sessions. Great choices everyone! For some reason I don't have a clear choice yet.

Oh, Yes the artist is Sergei U. Rukavishnikov from Tomsk, Siberia, Russia

About the artist.

He says on his Site: "I don’t name my works, so most of them presented here were named only for a distinguishing. So you are free to name them."

So I'm going to Name This One " Should Have Picked Tool "

Other gallerys

http://www.dark.gothic*****sur/first/galler1.html

[ShyShy]

You evil, evil man, webthing Making us choose just one. Decisions, decisions...... *head explodes*

[randman]

Van Morrison - Moondance

Really, I love Pink Floyd as much or more than the next person. But I think listening to any of thier albums over and over would drive me crazy. The subject matter is so depressing on the post-Barrett albums. I have to take it in small doses.

[Charlie the man]

Anything from the following below:

AC/DC - High Voltage
AC/DC - Highway to Hell
AC/DC - Back in Black
AC/DC - For Those About to Rock We Salute You
AC/DC - The Razors Edge
Megadeth - Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?
Megadeth - So Far, So Good, So WHAT?!?
Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction
Megadeth - Youthanasia
Megadeth - Capitol Punishment
Metallica - ...And Justice For All

[taylormemer]

Hmmmmmm well, I'd choose SlipKnoT - Iowa. Yes how ironic.

[Cylob]

I thought you might.

[k_rock923]

queen- a night at the opera

[xenosomething]

[lostonline]

That's a hard one to choose but based on recent listening it would be:
Faithless - Reverence

To decide properly I'd have to have a look through my albums and probably listen to most of them.
