Brilliant album. Would you know which massive attack album is your favourite? I always find it hard to pick between blue lines and protection.

Morpork

Anathema - Judgement

Love every track on that. Listening to it as an angsty teenager was just perfection.

Excellent album and I can't believe I left it out of the OP..

Don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but Paul Simons Graceland album is mine. Bought it on cassette and cd(2). Still stick it on if. driving a journey, never tired of it and completely different to what I usually listen to

Anathema released a couple of albums without any bad songs and that ain't one of them, Anyone Anywhere is pure cringe for a start


Alternative 4 has nothing but great songs on it, very underappreciated album.

Is this thread closed off to old lads? Haven’t seen many albums post 2000 on here yet

While I'm an old lad myself, a few more recent favorites albums that stand with the best of them in my humble opinion. Tons of brilliant new music coming out at the moment.

Plainly it's all subjective but I found Alternative 4 to be more overrated than anything. If you look at 'top Anathema albums' lists you'll find Judgment mostly places 1st with Alternative 4 somewhere below it, but still placing higher than it would on my list.

Don't know how you could find Anyone Anywhere cringe and not say - Goodbye cruel world.

Yeah cos they were signed to a label with a bit of cash who gave them a big push on the chick rock front

What Judgment had going for it was that Kit Woolven is a legend of a producer and made it sound like an iconic rock record, it's a great album but some of the tracks are piss weak.

David Gray - White Ladder

I Am The Law

Big Country - The Crossing.

The album version of In A Big Country isn’t great though; they got it right for the single mix.

Between blue lines and mezzanine for me.not so keen on protection!

Appetite for destruction is close.. would almost listen to the album through maybe skipping one song only.

Moon safari by Air, not a single weak tune on that album.
Corrected due to brain fart!

There are some really good songs on that album but I am sorry to say there are a couple of filler tracks.

jacool

Automatic For The People - REM
Seamonsters - The Wedding Present
On Our Big Fat Merry Go Round - a House
Heartworm - Whipping Boy

. . . . . because I listened to them all on vinyl, I never skipped any songs, so there's a path through each album for me.
Some tracks are better, sure, but to me its like "one thing" , acknowledging you had to turn them over half way through
Dunno if that's possible now, they way music is "packaged"

Badly Drawn Boy - The hour of bewilderbeast

This time with style

Bjork - Debut

fleet_admiral

Gorillaz - Demon Dayz

Cant believe I left Gorillaz' Demon Days out of the OP,
Been listening to it again over the last week or 2 and was reminded at how utterly brilliant it is.
