Albums that'd be great...
Thrillho:
--- Quote from: alyosha ---"Money" has my respect for being the only popular song in 7/8 time. Hence, I'd even say that it's purpose is to NOT fit in with the rest of the somewhat mellow, 4/4 time of most of "Dark Side" I agree it doesn't fit, but, as could be said of the band itself, its purpose is to NOT fit in...

Money is in 7/4, and I think Eclipse is actually in 6/8.
Not on Dark Side, but in the Floyd catalogue in general, 6/8 is at least as equally used as 4/4.
And there's a song on the new Hundred Reasons album where the chorus is in 7/8, though the verse is 4/4.
Plus, getting back to the Beatles, Love Is All You Need is in 7/8...

It seems like every Death Cab album has that ONE song with the unneeded two minute breakdown.

Disagree completely. What would make the album great would be getting rid of Sound of Settling. That song sucks and ruins the beautiful melancholy of the album.
I think The Dears No Cities Left would be awesome without Lost in the Plot.

The only thing that could make Illinois any better would be getting rid of "The Seer's Tower."

Seconded.
I also think that The New Pornographer's Twin Cinema would be much, MUCH better without "Three or Four." I can only stand hearing "Three or four hourglass" so many times before I kick a dog.

Are you kidding? That had some beautiful vocal work. It gives me chills each time I listen to it. What song could be removed is that last track. Boring, no point, just...bleh. I usually skip through the instrumentals anyway, but I shouldn't skip over a closer.
I think the last 3/4 of Lounge (Closing Time) by Modest Mouse is the only weak moment on Lonesome. I think if they had taken that out and replaced it with more of that beginning, the album wouldn't loose any momentum until when it should, at Trucker's Atlas.
Oh, and Moon and Antarctica should have Different City, Wild Pack of Family Dogs, and Tiny Cities in favor of some tracks from Nasty Parlour Tricks. I would have preferred hearing Night on the Sun, Here it Comes, or You're the Good Things to those blah tracks.
