What is the last really good album you bought?
 

An album that worked as an album rather than just a collection of songs that had little to do with each other. Is the art of the album still alive? If so...what is the last really good album you bought?

I got the new Chris Daugherty CD a few weeks ago. I couldn't tell you an album I have ever owned as that was a long time ago.

:)

well an album to me is actually vinyl LOL - but most of you havent a clue or ever held one, last vinyl was Emerson, Lake and Palmer Works. last CD was Meatloaf or Pink Floyd TheWall.

the rest today has been downloaded

well.. Pac's Life by 2Pac :pimp

REALLY good? Wildhoney by Tiamat.

The new Muse album

The Eagles Greatest Hits, circa 1976. First LP I ever bought for myself.

the stadiun arcadium cd

lost my copy of Radiohead's the Bends so I bought that again. one of my favorite CDs.

Well, every now and then I call a music store a "record shop". So, I feel your pain.

i bought the linkin park cd and i am thoroughly thrilled with it. so much so that i'm going to the project revolution concert in august.

Muse had crossed my mind too...they tend to play like an actual album

Last Vinyl Album I got was Endtroducing by DJ Shadow.

Last CD I bought that works as an album was the new Amy Winehouse.

Today the new White Stripes Album drops. I am pretty sure it is going to be a good one.

Silversun Pickups
Carnavas

i saw that on itunes - i'm debating if i should buy it.

I honestly can't think of anything decent i've bought lately. Everything has been pretty shite...

The last White Stripes album was okay as far as playing like an album. I will certainly listen to their new one..the single is good.

I think the last one that I bought that really was good as an album was Green Day's American Idiot as it was a story all the way through that more or less had to be heard in order to make the most sense.

American Idiot was a pretty good concept album (as they are called).

After the last White Stripes album, I wasn't too sure I liked the direction they were going. Then Jack released the Raconteurs album and I was really excited again. The new Single sounds really good and seems like they are finally getting away from the minimalist style that they were going after before. I never quite understood why Jack White used so little instrumentation. I say if you want minimalist then just use an acoustic guitar.

Ministry - Rio Grande Blood

Anders Manga; Left Of An All Time Low

his websites even has his music videos on it

spaz

vinyl - superman soundtrack

tape - pearl jam - ten

cd - nine inch nails - downward spiral

other than that, ive been downloading music since napster hit the net... seems a waste to buy cd's when the norm nowadays is to have one good song, 13 shitty songs, and 18 skits

arctic monkeys - favourite worst nightmare

What is it called if you buy all the songs from a "CD" online? Is that an album, a CD or a record that you bought?

Gotta say the best album i've bought in ages is the new(ish) Arctic Monkeys Album favourite worst nightmare, i also bought the new white stripes album Icky Thump as i am a huge fan but was quite disappointed am i the only one it really does'nt even compare to there previous albums or Jacks other band the Raconteurs also a really great album !

Interesting, I was hoping that the new White Stripes album was going to be good. As for the Arctic Monkeys, I thought that their first album was way way better than "Favourite Worst Nightmare"

Oh yeah it is but this album really does grow on you !
As for white stripes thats a real disappointing album :Oh crap icky thump is about the best track and although i ve only given it a couple of plays :warning so could be wrong :pimp

Dream Theater - Systematic Chaos

hands down.

The last Album I bought was probably Lynyrd Skynyrd's " Street Survivors ".

I have about 150 vinyl albums going as far back as the Beach Boys from the early '60s. I almost tossed them once when I moved but now I'm glad I kept them. Someday I'm going to make a big media room and " Tile " one wall with the album covers.

I have heard songs from it but not the whole album.

An album in cd format?

RUSH - Snakes & Arrows

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness - Smashing Pumpkins

Cirque du Soleil - The Beatles LOVE.

probably my favorite Beatles compilation.

nerd life by ytcracker is real tight

Long time ago but I own that too.

Eat A Peach

The Postal Service - Give Up
Hoobastank - Every Man For Himself
Moby - Play
Gorillaz - Demon Days
Sublime - Stand By Your Van

Allman Brothers?

If so, that is a great album. Although, I love the Filmore East album.

One of my all time favorites.
The original "Bros" :)

these are my current obsessive listens

zero 7 - the garden
junior boys - so this is goodbye
datarock - datarock datarock

amy winehouse

I don't recall a bad album by them.

That new Zero 7 is really good.
Rjd2 - the third hand.. great and cohesive album
Amon Tobin - Foley Room
Modest Mouse - We Were Dead before the ship even sank
Queens of the stone age , their new album.
The Bees - octopus
devin the dude - waiting to inhale

soooo fucking good :thumbsup

Tim Armstrong's 1st solo album - A Poet's Life

I didn't even know they came out with a new CD. Is it any good?

I see that it was on the Billboard 200 #3 on May 19, 2007.

I think the Eat a Peach Deluxe Edition would make both of you very happy. If I could only have one Allmans disc (well, double disc) this would be it. It's Eat a Peach with an extra disc of a live Fillmore set (not the At Fillmore East set, it's from a couple months later).

hmm.

both arcade fire albums. first interpol album. latest modest mouse. latest death cab for cutie. And of course, the editors only full length album.

I own Fillmore and Eat a Peach as well as Brothers and Sisters. May have another too, but would have to go thru all of my vinyl to verify which one.

You stole my answer! :winkwink:

I swear I listen to her at least once a day on my ipod
