Perfect Albums

[VINYLONE]

Colin Stetson - New History of Modern Warfare Vols. I, II, and III
John Coltrane - everything he does with McCoy Tyner right after leaving Davis' band
Can - Ege Bamyasi
Can - Tago Mago
Can - Future Days


^these are all absolutely timeless for me

****. Not sure how I missed this post. Those Can albums are fan-****ing-tastic. Are you into other Krautrock?

LOL. Did U2 put out a gangster rap album?

That's Rich.

 

[Hekate]

Aphrodite's Child's "666" could be considered perfect, I think.

Cocktails is the best Too $hort album.

Many rappers obviously copied his style.

"These are the tales, the freaky tales, these are the tales that i tell so well.
You dont like my dirty raps you can go to hell, coz Short Dogg is on the mic telling Cocktales"

OutKast - ATLiens (not sure if yet mentioned).
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
Takuya Kuroda - Rising Son
Lauryn Hill - Miseducation of LH
Steely Dan - Aja

definitely loads more out there IMO. I don't really have that high of a standard for 'perfect' tho.

I hate and love DMX. I freaking love singing the chorus to "Where The Hood At" but the verses are so homophobic it is cringe worthy.

I listened to a couple of DMX songs literally a week ago and noticed the exact same thing. Like, I legit feel awkward listening to them these days. It whomps, cuz like you said, them beats and choruses tho.

 

[Deleted member 848]

will add more albums to the list as I think of them.

 

[Game6Conley]

AZ - Doe or Die
Wiz Khalifa - Kush & Orange Juice
Dr. Dre - 2001

 

[HighlandHomie]

Boyz II Men - II

 

[Hedda Gambler]

Pink Floyd - The Final Cut
Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime
The Sisters of Mercy: First & Last & Always

 

[Hedda Gambler]

Killswitch Engage - Alive or Just Breathing
Type O Negative: World Coming Down

 

[Hedda Gambler]

Eminem`s Relapse might also belong right up there on my list.

If you want to get pumped and have that "no one can **** with me" attitude, DMX is the way to go. I remember reading a study someone did of unique words used by hip-hop artist, and DMX was at the very bottom. Just not the smartest dude.

Archers of Loaf's Icky Mettle

I'd say that's probably my favorite category of rock.
