Debut Albums

I will say that Bloc Party's sound has changed enough that their first album really isn't the best example of what they sound like.

True, but I'm more going for "these debut albums are their best work and are terrific albums", not really "these debut albums are good examples of their sound".

Some may argue that GnR's debut was their best.Travo_basic

[QUOTE="battlefront23"] Guess who now listens to Amon Amarth? >_>battlefront23

Good to hear! :D

Which album(s)?

Ah, from With Oden on Our Side. I'd recommend you check out that album, Versus the World, and Twilight of the Thunder God. All fantastic albums.

Wintersun - Wintersun

Dissection - The Somberlain

Ensiferum - Ensiferum

Ulver - Bergtatt

Emperor - In the Nightside Eclipse

Suicidal Tendencies self titled debut was easily their best work.

Also Pop Art by Transvision Vamp. I prefer their 3rd release as more artistic but the 1st really captures them perfectly.

Also Cypress Hill's self titled. Like AC/DC they have just rerecorded the same album for all their next releases. ;)

[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]Black Sabbath's debut (and self-titled) album is (imo) their best as well, though they have many other albums of similar quality.Darth-Caedus

I hear a lot of people say the same thing, actually. I just personally love it, especially the title track and Wicked World (plus, Behind the Wall of Sleep is imo probably the most underrated Sabbath song). I will say that I consider Paranoid and Master of Reality to be equally good albums (I've been really fond of Into the Void particularly of late).

Pavement - Slanted & Enchanted
Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights
Television - Marquee Moon
R.E.M. - Murmur
Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker
Uncle Tupelo - No Depression
Animal Collective - Spirit They're Gone, Spirit They've Vanished
The Strokes - Is This It?
dEUS - Worst Case Scenario
Clinic - Internal Wrangler
Gang of Four - Entertainment!
The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium
Sun Kil Moon - Ghosts of the Great Highway

Tindersticks - s/t

Tricky - Maxinquaye
The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico (Not my favorite though)
Ween - God Ween Satan
Wire - Pink Flag
The Walkmen - Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me is Gone (Again, not my personal favorite)

Boston's self titled album.

Heaven and Hell is up there with the best of Ozzy-era Sabbath, though I'd say Mob Rules and Dehumanizer are a step below (still definitely better than Technical Ecstasy/Never Say Die). Just my opinion though. :P

I can understand though why you don't like their title track. I just love the sound of it. :P

Nas's Illmatic. Only the greatest debut album of all time.tbone29

Who's your favorite rapper(s)?

Mine are Tupac and Geto Boys.

[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]

[QUOTE="battlefront23"] I can't do albums at this point, but the song I got is "Cry of the Black Birds".battlefront23

Ah, from With Oden on Our Side. I'd recommend you check out that album, Versus the World, and Twilight of the Thunder God. All fantastic albums.

Their lyrics certainly aren't Dylan-quality (but then again, whose are :P), but (given their themes) they aren't that bad. Anyway, my personal favorite album of theirs is Twilight of the Thunder God, has some amazing songs (the title track, Free Will Sacrifice, Live for the Kill, Embrace of the Endless Ocean, Tattered Banners and Bloody Flags are all fantastic, all the other tracks are good (Where is your God?, Guardians of Asgaard, and No Fear for the Setting Sun imo are the weaker tracks, but I still like all of them :D).

Slipknot's was awesome

And of course VAN HALEN I

Gish from The Smashing Pumpkins is my choice.

Who's your favorite rapper(s)?

Mine are Tupac and Geto Boys.

I really like Tupac, but not as much as most rap listeners do.

My favorite new rappers are J. Cole, B.o.B, and Kid CuDi.

The Strokes - Is This It

I think Murmur by R.E.M. is an interesting choice, but they have done so many different things in their career that it is hard to define them with one album.

I guess Linkin Park

and The Killers

Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights

Slipknot by Slipknot was just awesome.

Also off-topic but is it me or did Off-Topic turn into Music-Topic? :P I don't mind, I love talking about music. :P Wish we had a board dedicated to that of music releated things. :)

If I used the wrong word in a phrase, I would appreciate someone correcting me. Lighten up, now you can use that phrase in life without looking like a moron. ;)

this is an internet forum, we are not writing college essays here. i use word and check my work over twise when i write an essay, and use spellcheck. . on these forums i write quickly and dont care if i miss a period or spell a word wrong.

no one reading what i said cares how i spell or what my grammar is like as long as they can read and comprehend what i wrote. when people correct others spelling they are trying to start something, or to act smart, its a sarcastic thing meant to put others down and make them look foolish. trust me i have done it many a times in an arguement.

dont assume i am an idiot and do not know what you are doing.
