Also, both the Pumpkins and NIN? Writers of the occasional good song, but neither of them ever managed to assemble a truly great album from start to finish. |

I would probably say King Crimson - Larks Tongues in Aspic A Silver Mt Zion - Born Into Trouble as the Sparks Fly Upward Sigur Ros - Takk Regina Spektor - Begin to Hope Amiina - Kurr Pink Floyd - Meddle The Go! Team - Thunder, Lightning, Strike Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works Vol 2 DJ Shadow - Endtroducing Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables but then I'd probably give a different list tomorrow |

Like, no other album, by anyone, ever. TBH I never really got into their stuff that preceded Trans, but you have inspired me to give it a go. Also, Narrow Stairs is AMAZING. Plans is also quite good, but Codes and Keys is really a bit safe and boring |

Fruity Gordo posted:narrow stairs is insane. it is loving insane. i got to see them live a few weeks after it launched in australia and listened to a few narrow stairs songs live for only the second time, i am the luckiest broad Narrow Stairs is a hugely powerful and sad album with quite a few awesomely energetic and danceable songs. But it does have Grapevine Fires which I hate. Long Division forever. Also Cath! I thought Codes and Keys was fairly obviously a bunch of undercooked b-side songs coming from a place of contentment and stagnation, with an attempt to boost them to greatness by trying some different production techniques. However many effects and synths they layer over it can't hide that it's fundamentally really safe and poppy. |

TBH I never really got into their stuff that preceded Trans, but you have inspired me to give it a go. See I hate narrow stairs bar one or two tracks, Plans I very much like but it's uneven and a little to maudlin at times, Codes and Keys is indeed safe and boring. They hit their straps with We Have the Facts, Transatlanticism and The Photo Album in my opinion. I have trouble picking a favorite album because quite often I end up finding one or two songs by a band that I love and finding the rest of their catalogue meh, (Counting Crows and Frankie Miller Goes to Hollywood being a prime example). However: Give Up - The Postal Service All Hail West Texas - The Mountain Goats Iron Maiden - Killers The Photo Album - Death Cab Nocturama - Nick Cave Rock N Roll - Ryan Adams Beautiful Sharks - Something for Kate The 59' Sound - Gaslight Anthem Strays - Janes Addiction Gomez - Liquid Skin Honestly I could have chucked more Ryan Adams in there but eh there are so many things I love, top ten lists are silly like that. |

Those On My Left posted:The first five songs off Machina are the best thing the Pumpkins ever did I have not listened to that album in years but from memory the various guitar tones used and production was impressive (although to be expected from Corgan). I had a quick look around youtube and "The Everlasting Gaze" is pretty average for a token heavy track. "I of the Mourning" had that lovely shimmering guitar tone though.
