How do you get This is It for a Michael Jackson album? Thriller and Bad (and Dangerous, for that matter) are both alot better.

Same w/ the Killers, even though Day and Age is preferable to Sam's Town, it's got nothing on Hot Fuss.

Because This Is It has all the hits from the other albums, and a new one too. Only thing that could top it is HIStory.

Killers, I've only heard Day and Age, and I really like it.

Either way, it's all just my opinion. I for example think The Beatles [White Album] is one of the Beatles worst.

I find The Clashs first album to be very good. I also love their Sandinista! even though it's very long and very inconsistent. Wire's Pink flag becaue it's cool and awesome. Eternally yours by The Saints, where nearly every song is good and some of them are really really good. The Vibrators first two albums: Pure mania and V2. Real life by Magazine - most of their albums are overall great, but on this one I really like every single song. And Entertainment! by Gang of four.

I like every album from Rihanna and Beyonce. Because it's just how it is.

I've recently started listening to Scott Walker. His 1995 album Tilt is unlike anything I've ever heard before, and the track of the same name is really atmospheric... it's hard to describe what it sounds like. I don't understand the lyrics (especially the references to a buffalo), but the words fit together so well. "Farmer in the City" is also a peculiar yet captivating track. He sounds like he's alone in the middle of a field, trying to hold an auction all by himself.

Les Bourgeois by Jacques Brel, London Calling by The Clash, If I should fall from grace with God by The Pogues, The Dreaming by Kate Bush, Secondhand Daylight by Magazine... are those I can mention off-the-cuff.

Haha, oh dear, that reminds me of when I was seeing a band as a teen and Sabaton played before them and in the middle of the real concert the singer from Sabaton decided to emerge on stage wearing a leather thong and a bunny tail. The other band was as confused as the audience.

I honestly think Gorillaz - Demon Days is one of the best albums ever. Defiantly their best album that's for sure. My favorite song in that album is D.A.R.E but the music video for that song sure is weird.

I think that most of the Lemon Demon albums are very epic. Honestly, the only ones I really couldn't get into were Clown Circus, Live From the Haunted Candle Shop, and Nature Tapes. Lemon Demon is my favorite... uh... band? Musician? Musical project? I don't know, it's one guy with the exception of those few concerts he did live with a full band a while back.
