you're getting a lot of mileage outta that huey lewis record george.

erm, everybody's already mentioned all the classics.

i finally got my turntable working and i've been listening to all my old metal records lately...

megadeth's peace sells is the best thrash album of all time. don't anybody try and convince me it was fucking slayer or some shit.

1st three metallica records are all gems too.

stormtroopers of death 'speak english or die' is leagues better than any of the proper anthrax records.

what else....

can: tago mago and ege bamyasi, although i honestly could do without the second half of tago mago

miles: bitches brew and in a silent way are both perfect

sonic youth: dirty. yeah i know, i don't care, i still like that one the best.

fuck! :oops: stupid mistake. i listen to it so much too. hahaha. anyways, that's what i meant. i need a good nights sleep.
Misery Index - Dissent
awesome. a very close 2nd to "Overthrow" IMO though. all the stuff they did with Kevin Talley on drums is unstopable. just got the newer one, "discordia"... blegh. pretty boring. drums sound aweful. has it's moments, but doesn't measure up to earlier stuff. it has less of the crust-punk/grind vibe that makes them so good.

Pink Floyd - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
Papas Fritas - Helioself
Neil Finn - Try Whistling This

that's all i can squeeze out of my forebrain right now cos i'm still awake from yesterday. :crazy:

i love Pink Floyd - Meddle, but Seamus kinda keeps it from being perfect imo.

The great thing is, he's probably never heard the whole record.
