Ace albums you own that you forgot about

[RJ Fan club]

Just thought Leftfield - Leftism, I think I'll have some of that now

[madstock]

Dirty Reggae - The Aggrolites; top band that wouldn't have sounded out of place in 60's Kingston. (Not Upon-Thames).

[Josef Svejk]

Good shout on Otis. I've really been getting into the Stax classics recently. Curtis Mayfield too, but I miss the kick-ass Stax rhythm section on his stuff, great as it is.

[RoboRiise]

Faith No More - Angel Dust

RHCP - Blood Sugar Sex Magik

 

Oh, now we're talking - what an absolute monster of an album that is. I remember I saw them play at Maine Road just before they released it - cracking gig even for a stadium show.

 

BSSM is also a great album, but my mates and I overplayed it even more than MTV did when it came out, meaning that even now I struggle to listen to it all the way through.

Dust- The The

Appetite for destruction - Guns `n`roses

Siamese Dreams - smashing pumpkins

 

Appetite for destruction is a very good album. Befor Axl Rose lost his mind and went overboard with too much symphonies ...

 

Dust is an album i listen from time to time and i still really enjoy listening to it...

 

siamese dreams is a beautiful album, and in my opinion SP never reached that level again, even though mellon collie and infinite sadness was more critically acclaimed

[Guest Eskimo-Boy]

P.O.S - Audition

Is absolutely spot on :thumbsup:

The odd song on Mellon Collie hit the heights, but not as consistently as Siamese Dream....as for Adore, well Billy Corgan needing shooting for that piece of shit :whoops:

[Juniper]

Portishead - Roseland NYC Live

 

I've been getting into their Debut record and 'Dummy' again, both very good albums.

I do think Machina is one of their best though......

Couldnt argue with that...I was having a shufty through the stacks of CD storage boxes in my room the other day and there were loads of CDs Id forgotten that Id even bought, nevermind listened to them in a while. Some that have been getting airplay over the last week are:

 

Superchunk - Tossing Seeds

Monomen - Wrecker

Killing Joke - Night Time

Jack O'Fire - The destruction of squaresville

Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - Extra Width

That Petrol Emotion - Manic Pop Thrill

The Fall - Hex Enduction Hour

 

I really must get around to sticking all one billion of them on to my iPod at some point, Ive got about 100 albums on there and then stopped, theres storage boxes I havent even looked in in ages.

The first 2 on that list have certainly tickled me in the right places and brought back teenage/college memories.

 

That's a top call - superchunk. What an underrated group - kind of got swamped by grunge. You've made me go and check out their myspace site - slack motherfucker - what a tune.

 

for what it's worth - Born in the uSa by the Boss...always better than i remember

[Remmie]

No one will agree but Word Gets Around by Stereophonics the first album I ever bought, great fucking album.

 

Also can't beat a bit of Bob Marley

Good shout bro....I bought that on lovely red vinyl when it came out, mustve been 1992...then bought the CD ages ago. Its worth having just for Slack Motherfucker, great tune, but also for Garlic, Fishing and Cool.....all of those 4 are cracking songs...in fact, I think Fishing might be the best of lot.

I saw Superchunk a couple of times back in the day, on the No Pocky for Kitty tour, still got the tshirt upstairs somewhere.

 

They came across as a bit geeky on that "Take the tube" video/documentary that they did, but I think basically they were anti-cool anyway.

 

The singer lives just up the road from my mate in North Carolina...Chapel Hill.

[gazelle]

Faith No More - Angel Dust

RHCP - Blood Sugar Sex Magik

The Prodigy - Music For The Jilted Generation

Fishbone - Truth and Soul

Alice In Chains - Jar of Flies (although it's really an EP rather than an album).

 

God i completely forgot about this album, i absolutely loved it, midlife crisis was my favourite, and BE AGGRESSIVE.. good shout.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

God i completely forgot about this album, i absolutely loved it, midlife crisis was my favourite, and BE AGGRESSIVE.. good shout.

 

Yeah, thats a top shout aswell, Midlife Crisis and Small Victory were great songs. The video to Midlife Crisis was ace....and Epic, that was great and Falling to Pieces.

I was no great lover of Pearl Jam, but Jeremy was out at the same time, that was a top song and video.

[dirty_sanchez]

Aaaah, Music For The Jilted Generation. What an speaker wrecking bassfest that album was. Voodoo People makes my feet twitch just thinking about it.

[King Gheedorah]

Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Question the answers

Massive Attack - Mezzanine

Roots Manuva - Run come save me

Pharcyde - Labcabincalifornia

Jimi Tenor - Out of nowhere

Kaare & The Cavemen - Long days flight till tomorrow

The Doors - LA Woman

[Guest TK-421]

 

Killing Joke - Night Time

 

That's a great record.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

That's a great record.

Tabazan, Eighties, Love Like Blood.....quality.

Shit, Small Victory forgot that one too, i would have love to have seen them live.. on PJ - Even flow was a tune also.

I've been getting into their Debut record and 'Dummy' again, both very good albums.

Dummy is the debut mate.

 

I'd also agree with Rem on the Stereophonics debut.

[Juniper]

Cheers for the info, always thought 'Portishead' was the first. Been thinking that for years somehow.

 

Should really pay attention to the back of the cd case.

I thought that for a bit too when I first got into them, it's a logical conclusion.

[Juniper]

Me and the girlfriend had a disagreement the other week about which album was better

She said the first, I said the second. Turns out we were both on about Dummy.

 

It all becomes clear now

[madstock]

The 3rd studio album is out later this year. Highlight of 2007? Probably...

It's one of those things that just cannot fail to please. Beth Gibbons could read me the phonebook and it would sound like heaven.

It's great when they play Eighties at the party on Weird Science.
