Albums That Are Good From Start To Finish:

[Get_A_Grip_]

I've got a few, but I am going to limit it to one per artist otherwise we'll be here all day:

Tool - 10,000 Days
Radiohead - In Rainbows
Rise Against - The Sufferer and the Witness
Portishead - Dummy
Bloc Party - Silent Alarm
Blockhead - Music by Cavelight
Pearl Jam - Ten

The album I am listening to the most right now is the Volbeat album Beyond Hell/ Above Heaven, just go listen to either 16 dollars, Evelyn, or Heaven nor Hell. Those songs are just amazing.

Other than that I would pretty much any Iron Maiden album.

 

[TheOneBearded]

Rainbow - Rising

For the youngins, Rainbow was one of the earlier (yet, the most famous next to Black Sabbath) bands that held the great Ronnie James Dio. The album also holds the song "Stargazer", which happens to be the greatest song of all time - according to the most reliable source on Earth, me.

If you don't know who Dio is, think that a "Black Sabbath" is some sort of sexual position, or if the only stargazer you ever heard of is that little snot from Mass Effect 3, then I don't think I should be talking to you - for your protection, of course.

My list, comprised of albums I didn't see during my cursory sweep of this thread:
The Flaming Lips: Yoshimi Battles the pink robots
Arcade Fire: The Suburbs
Oingo Boingo: Dead Man's Party
Rush: Clockwork Angels
I'd add more, but I understand the stipulation of not mentioning too many albums by one artist, and the minimum song limit. Otherwise Hemispheres would be on here too, and probably either Grace Under Pressure or A Farewell to Kings.

Rush's albums are always good from start to finish!

also WHy no Weird Al?

Fleetwood Mac: Rumours

The apotheosis of '70s-era music, in my opinion. For me, there's not a single skippable song on that album, and I can't say that about any other album I've ever listened to, in any genre, from any time period, including other Fleetwood Mac albums.

 

[the_hoffs_ego]

For me?

Switchfoot - Vice Verses
Coldplay - Viva La Vida
Coldplay - Mylo Xyloto
Linkin Park - A Thousand Suns
Foo Fighters - Wasting Light
Shinedown - The Sound of Madness

 

[Gmans uncle]

Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall, Wish You Were Here, Animals (They're all perfect)
Daft Punk- Alive 2007
The Who- Quadrophenia
Nero- Welcome Reality
Led Zeppelin- Physical Graffiti
Justice- Cross
The Killers- Day and Age
Emerson Lake and Palmer- Brain Salad Surgery
Phish- A live One
DJ Shadow- Endtroducing

I could go on and on...

[The Bread is Delicious]

A couple that I haven't seen posted yet would be:
Elevator - Hot Hot Heat
Tourist History - Two Door Cinema Club
Beacon - Also by Two Door Cinema Club

I can't really say I don't like anything by Two Door Cinema Club...

 

[EmperorSubcutaneous]

Hedningarna's third album, Trä.

Every song is raw and complex, each has a different tone, and they all flow together thematically to create a cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

It's been my favorite album for 10 years.

 

[Olas]

Okay, here goes nothing. Keep in mind this list is hyper subjective.

In no particular order, just as I thought them up.
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here
White Stripes - Elephant, Icky Thump
The Who - Quadrophenia
The Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour
Led Zeppelin - IV
Muse - Absolution
Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral, The Fragile
Blur - Blur
Nirvana - Nevermind
Massive Attack - Mezzazine

 

[FrozenCones]

Fellow Escapists! Some damn good music here. Most of the albums that come to mind have already been listed.

Couldn't see this one though.

And this one is a personal favorite

**EDIT**

And this bad boy

 

[Conner42]

Besides my favorite that happen to be classics like Frampton Comes Alive, Who's Next, anything by The Cars, pretty much Everything by The Beatles; Franz Ferdinand's first two albums are incredibly good, while they do have a couple of songs that kind of don't hold up to the rest of the album, all of the songs are still really good.

But then there's Tonight, and for whatever reason, I....Cannot.....Stop.....Listening.....To it!

I don't know what it is, but every time I feel like listening to an album it's "Hmmmm, I think I'll listen to this album again!"

The thing is, I thought it was their weakest album the first time I listened to it, but, now, it's almost all I ever want to listen to sometimes.

One of these days, they'll have their next album.....eventually!

(Dammit guys, hurry up!)

Iron Maiden - Brave New World/Rock in Rio/Virtual XI
Porcupine Tree - The Incident
Pink Floyd - (most albums but in particular) The Wall
Birds Of Toyko - Universes
Pixes - Trompe Le Monde

[Mattlore]

Candy Coated Fury - Reel Big Fish

There is not a single track on this album that I dislike!

 

[The Bread is Delicious]

Album One or Live at the Globe of Yesterday's Tomorrow (the live version of Album One) By Steam Powered Giraffe.

Don't know how I could have forgotten that one. Their music is awesome, but their performances are spine tingling.

 

[William Dickbringer]
