Well, thats their most recent, all of their albums are perfect to me. I could listen to these guys FOREVER. I still don't know what genre to call them but damn is it ever good music. Started listening to them a few years back and me and my friends have been hooked on them.
Good sir i think i love you :p. Id classify them as Danish Rockabilly:p

For me, top 3 albums would be the
Sufferer and the Witness by Rise Against
The Constant by Story of the Year
In Love and Death by The Used

There are many albums where I love every song. Favourites out of all are:



Brain Salad Surgery, probably ELP's greatest album due to their 30 minute master piece, Karn Evil 9. Especially the 3rd Impression, one of the most powerful songs ever.



Paranoid by Black Sabbath. If you are truly a metal fan then you would've heard this album before. If you haven't, you gotta listen too War Pigs, Paranoid and Iron Man.



Bob Dylan's Desire album, easily one of his best. Personally, I prefer the style of music on this album, it's really something else.

Off Topic: Why is thread OK while verse threads frowned upon?

I'd yet to find a 'perfect' album.
There's always that ONE song that makes you go 'eww!'.

The first half of Muse's Origin of Symmetry is the closest I have ever got to thinking an album is perfect. Unfortunately, songs 7-11 don't quite reach the calibre of the first 6.

Avenged Sevenfold's self-titled album is very good too, but since I always skip Dear God, I can't rate it above Origin of Symmetry.

Five'll do, i could keep going, but then there would be at least 500000000000000 more to post
This may seem like a stupid questions, but I have never been sure. Is the actually band called (with spaces) Alexis on Fire, or Alex is on Fire? I have never heard anyone say the name, so I am really not sure. If you reply, thank you for clear that up for me.

OT: There are really only two that I can think of, one is old and one is new. These are as close to a perfect album as I can think.





Two completely different albums, but amazing in their own right. This is as close as it gets to perfectly in my opinion.

I was about to say the Kingdom Hearts soundtrack, but then I remembered the Winnie the Pooh music...
So I was going to replace my answer with the Kingdom Hearts 2 soundtrack, but that had the Atlantica songs... oh wait, that had the Winnie the Pooh music as well... Hm.

Is there a soundtrack with just the music from the openings and non-Disney levels? If so, I like that. If not, there should be.


But this has become an unoriginal vote 'round these parts as of late.

Is that cheating?


is just awesome too... frankly I am impressed to find another that listens to running wild, I thought we were few and far between.

And several others that I don't feel like listing to save time.

I have a few:

Animals as Leaders - Animals as Leaders
Great driving music :)

Definative - INXS
I know complination albums are usually out-of-bounds in threads like this, but I couldn't go past this.
I drove from the West coast of Australia to the East, only stopping to change drivers and refuel - this and the above album were on shuffle just about the whole way.

Dark Passion Play - Nightwish
This is my choice if I'm in the mood for something a bit heavier - I love the contrast between the male and female vocals, as well as between the heavy guitar work and the symphonic elements.

The Sufferer and The Witness - Rise Against
This is where I go to mix things up a bit.
The bad show a good range here - from the slow acoustic of 'Roadside' to the ballad-like 'The Approaching Curve' to the thought-provoking (to me, anyway :p) 'Survive' and 'Prayer of Refuge'

Yep, if I was stuck with just these four albums for the rest of my time here, I'd be pretty happy.
