THE BEATLES- LET IT BE (1970)

1. Two of Us
2. Dig a Pony
3. Across the Universe
4. I Me Mine

6. Let it Be
7. Maggie Mae
8. I've Got A Feeling
9. One After 909
10. The Long and Winding Road
11. For You Blue
12. Get Back
An amazing album, obviously. Has the sound of a live record, which is obviously what they were going for. I would have switched The Long and Winding Road with Get Back, but that is too minor a quibble to detract from it's score.

This is one of the best albums ever! Echo and the Bunnymen may be the most underrated band of all time. They obviously inspired bands like U2, The Cure, Smashing Pumpkins, and more. Check this out. It's a perfect album.

System of a Down - Toxicity 10/10

This is my second favorite SoaD cd. And I have just listened to it 3 times in a row. It is perfect, there is not one bad song on the whole cd. Shimmy is a really good song that I had forgotten all about. If you haven't heard this cd go out a snag it, FANTASTIC.

[PTAhole]

YES. That is a fantastic album.

[captainofbeef]

Well Pearl Jam self title is the last one I listened too. I dont really listen to CDs much since I got an Ipod now.
I would give Pearl Jam around a 9.7 or a 9.8. A great return to their roots.

[agentknight]

Toxicity is a kickass album. Out of interest, what's your favourite SoaD album?

I just listened to The Queen is Dead by The Smiths.



1. "The Queen Is Dead" - 6:24
2. "Frankly Mr. Shankly" - 2:17
3. "I Know It's Over" - 5:48
4. "Never Had No One Ever" - 3:36
5. "Cemetry Gates" - 2:39
6. "Bigmouth Strikes Again" - 3:12
7. "The Boy with the Thorn in His Side" - 3:15
8. "Vicar in a Tutu" - 2:21
9. "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" - 4:02
10. "Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others" - 3:14

Sonic heaven. Whoever recommended this to me has my eternal respect (if only I knew who they were...) 10/10

[captainofbeef]

Ah yes, I love the Smiths!

[PTAhole]

Beck- Odelay
[glow=red,2,300]10/10[/glow]

1. Devil's Haircut
2. Hotwax
3. Lord Only Knows
4. The New Pollution
5. Derelict
6. Novacane
7. Jack-Ass
8. Where It's At
9. Minus
10. Sissyneck
11. Readymade
12. High 5 (Rock the Catskills)
13. Ramshackle

One of the best albums of the '90's. Beck's masterpiece, to be sure (although he is very consistant.) Devil's Haircut is an amazing song to start an album with. The whole album has many great songs. It has great replay value.

[captainofbeef]

I love that album also. Beck is a master.

[agentknight]

I have an unhealthy obsession with Beck.

The Police Greatest Hits - 10/10

God I love The Police! They are like a mix of rock and reggae that is just amazing. Every song on the cd is great. I will never get sick of Roxanne! I will probably listen to it again its so good!

[PTAhole]

Yes, the Police smoke just about everyone.

[captainofbeef]

The Life Aquatic Studio Sessions- 8/10

Just as much fun as I hoped it would be. Jorge's voice is clearly amazing, one of the most soothing I have ever heard. Even better if you are a huge fan of Bowie, which I am.

[captainofbeef]

We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions- Bruce Springsteen
10/10

One of the best Cd of this decade. Its ironic that the best country Cd of the past ten years comes from Bruce. The songs are all infused with his spirit and the band bangs them home just as well as the E Street Band. BUY THIS NOW!!

[PTAhole]

Red Hot Chili Peppers- Stadium Arcadium (Disc One)
[glow=red,2,300]10/10[/glow]

DISC ONE (Jupiter)
1. Dani California
2. Snow ((Hey Oh))
3. Charlie
4. Stadium Arcadium
5. Hump de Bump
6. She's Only 18
7. Slow Cheetah
8. Torture Me
9. Strip My Mind
10. Especially in Michigan
11. Warlocks
12. C'mon Girl
13. Wet Sand
14. Hey

This is an AMAZING album so far. Not one bad song, not one mediocre song. This is all top notch. I'll give more thoughts when I listen to the other disc. If it keeps up, this might be one of the best albums of the past ten years...

[blackmoses]

Rob Zombie - Past, Present & Future 10000000000000000000/10

How? Freaking masterpiece!

[criterionmaster]

Yes! I really need to see him live.

[blackmoses]

That would be the best thing ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PTAhole]

I'm afraid the album I just listened to smokes that album.

[criterionmaster]

System of a Down - Steal this Album 8/10

Much better than I remembered but still not one of thier best. Some REALLY great songs, so not so great ones. But still a very good record.

Unless it's the Beatles then it's not.

[PTAhole]

I haven't listened to that in a long while. I might give it another spin sooner or later...

[captainofbeef]

You guys know nothing about music other than Tim. Zombie and SOAD SUCK!!! Glad you like Stadium Arcadium Tim. Must buy that this weekend.

[captainofbeef]

The Ritual- Testament
7.5/10

Good band, but this is probably the worst record of theirs that I have heard. I'm not saying its bad, its good metal with some flashy soling. But, they sound like they were trying to make their version of Metallica's Black Album. Trying to make yourself more commercial is never good. That is why the band lost the best part of their band, their amazing guitarist, after this album.

[captainofbeef]

Feel Like Shit Deja Vu Controlled by Hatred- Suicidal Tendencies

6/10
What happened here? This is a great band and this could have been a great album. But instead the vocals are simply buried under the guitar, drums, and bass. The songs are great technically, but the production hid the vocals. You can barely hear them. It could have something to do with the quality of the disc I got, its all scratched up. But, I have read similar complaints by other listeners. So, I do not believe that is the case.

[criterionmaster]

Rob Zombie is amazing. You better admit that White Zombie is great at least!

[captainofbeef]

I hate Rob Zombie soo much. But the first White Zombie Cd is fun. I didnt love it, but it was some pretty good stuff. From there it goes downhill for Zombie.

[criterionmaster]

well your dumb. I will have to play you some great zombie. You must not like the same stuff that I do. You like Slipknot?
