Perfect Albums?

[Macgyvercas]

Any album released by The Moody Blues.

Best. Band. Ever.

Razorlight's first album was brilliant, so I'll go with that

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

I can think of three albums I'd describe as flawless:

Agaetis Byrjun by Sigur Ros
Vheissu by Thrice
Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven by Godspeed You! Black Emperor

Nearly perfect:

Threes by Sparta
Catch For Us the Foxes by mewithoutYou
Kid A by Radiohead

HOLY CRAP.
Another person who loved that album?! Never thought I would find one in this lifetime...

Between the Buried and Me- Colors

Great album that flows seemlessly from one song to another, technically the album is just one long song.

this

Kezia - Protest the Hero

Nocturne - The Human Abstract

Wow how could i forget Protest the hero. Although i do think Fortress is better. Literally not a hint of nothing but awesomeness in that CD. While Kezia is good it isnt as good as Fortress. Nocturne is pretty good too but i wouldn't say perfect.

Another one that I just thought of is Controller by Misery Signals. That and Fortress are by far the best albums of 2008.

I'd throw He is Legend- I am Hollywood, into the running of near perfect.

I feel bad for saying this for something based on opinion but
/thread

it always has a honorable position next to me.

I love that album but in my opinion there is one song that keeps the album from being perfect. That song is "Orion". I just don't like that song. It's still the most perfect album I can think of though. Led Zeppelin IV is close.

heretic! BURN!
I love Orion, sure it's a bit long and not really "fitting" in the more heavy style of the album, but it's still such a awesome song

Heh, I'm actually listening to that album right now, and it's on Orion.

Speaking of Metallica, the black album is perfect in my opinion. So:

The Dark Saga - Iced Earth
Metallica - Metallica
Mer De Noms - A Perfect Circle
Songs for Swingin' Lovers! - Frank Sinatra

Just to name a few.

You have got to be joking, how can you call orion bad when its one of their most experimental pieces.

Because it's instrumental and to be honest Metallica shouldn't make instrumental songs because some members (like Lars) aren't skilled enough to do an instrumental song. If you make an instrumental song as a band everybody has to be great and they just aren't.

Wha? Orion is an awesome piece, one of the song that really proves what an awesome bassist Cliff was. Orion is just as equally awesome as the other songs!

Yes Cliff was great but I'm just used to a lot better instrumental songs so this one seems to me average.

[Grand_Pamplemousse]

OK Computer by Radiohead.

It was actually the first album I ever bought so maybe it's a bit of nostalgia speaking.

Karma Police AND Paranoid Andriod on one album, not without it's flaws but a seriously good choice.

I remember once listening to Takk and having to sit there all the way through the album, it's as if the music is so enveloping, so amazing that I fell into a comatose state. So I can't really listen to it while driving....

 

[mikecoulter]

John Mayer - Continuum

Alice In Chains - Dirt

They're both excellent.

 

[Bernzz]

Hold Your Colour by Pendulum. I love every track on that album.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails. I skip nothing.

Mutter by Rammstein. I just love it.
