The If Only [x] Was Their Final Album Thread
 

What a wonderful world this would be.

inb4 pictures of Bad Moon Rising

am i doing it right?

shit, that reminds me. I forgot Trompe Le Monde. :(

yeah, i was going to put it as well

Darklands was my favorite JAMC album.
I used to think Honey's Dead is good.
I never enjoyed Psychocandy.
Now I can't stand any of their music anymore.

I really like Honey's Dead! Automatic is pretty good too. They should have stopped after HD.

I wish Wish was the last Cure album. heh.

you rate that above sweet sixteen and accelarator?!

I definitely rate it above Sweet Sixteen, which I really do find quite unlistenable nowadays, although I probably prefer Accelerator overall. To be honest I think the last really worthwhile album of theirs was Cats & Dogs. I just put Thank You as their last one because of 'Map of the City', which I've always had a bit of a soft spot for. But yeah, after Cats & Dogs I pretty much lost interest apart from the odd single here and there.

i've never understood why sweet sixteen gets so much negative sentiment, i think it's amazing

I always think that Sweet Sixteen sounds like they'd been reading their own (bad) reviews and decided to create an album based on them. I can definitely see how it's a love/hate album though.

Weezer-Pinkerton. In my mind they broke up after it.

mars volta - that tape they recorded their first ever song to. That should've been their final recording.

The Stooges - Raw Power


That was their last album, unless they decide to record a new one.

ps: Royal trux were good till the end

that tape was actually a 70 minutes jam including 178 guitar solos and 15000 hz vocals. it is conceptually based on ouijda boards, color-blind ducks and astroshooter flippers. i heard you could recognize the riff from nowhere girl somewhere around 27:53 !! but then again they play all the successions of notes possible at 480bpm so you could hear anything, of course

sunny day real estate - lp2

Maybe their new one will be good...

my bloody valentine - you made me realize

^^^ good call on Boces.

Nowhere was released before Going Blank Again.
You don't like Going Blank Again?!G

wipers - over the edge
nirvana - bleach
limp bizkit - 3 dolla bill y'all$

going blank again has the amazing leave them all behind on it...and 3 or 4 other gems so yeah , it warrants a place in my collection but nowhere is sublime in its genius......

one obvious one i missed ...

Miles Davis - Get Up With It

merzbow - merzbox

static-x - wisconsin death trip
staind - tormented
cold - 13 ways to bleed on stage
spineshank - height of callousness
wu tang - 36 chambers
throbbing gristle - 3rd annual report
mindless self indulgence - tight
animal collective - sung tongs
korn - life is peachy
glassjaw - everything you ever wanted to know about silence
mudvayne - l.d. 50
slipknot - s/t
taproot - gift
pavement - wowee zowee

you don't like 20 Jazz Funk Greats or Heathen Earth?

Oh actually I love Heathen Earth. But that was a live recording (live in studio to a minimal audience... but still). So, I guess I mean, D.O.A. should've been the last fully-produced studio recording. I find 20 Jazz Funk Greats boring actually.

throbbing gristle are about the only band i know of thaat their "greatest hits" album is probably their best...... funny that!

what?!

Nas-Illmatic (obvious one there)

US Maple-Long Hair in Three Stages (sang phat editor is meh and all the others suck)

Husker Du-Zen Arcade

SPK-First 3 7 inches

wu tang didnt make much good full group efforts after 36 chambers, but you have to remember liquid swords, only built for cuban linx, supreme clientele, return to the 36 chambers, ad iron man are all just as much full wu tang albums as 36 chambers. those are all clasics too.

"Talker" is my favorite album by U.S. Maple.
