Albums that'd be great...

--- Quote from: BeoPuppy ---Iron Maiden: 7th son of a 7th son ... Can I play with madness. What is that 'written for single' thingy doing on such an awesome album? It feels a lot like having an ABBA song in the middle of Kill 'Em All. It's just wrong ...

High five!

I have a lot. Dunno if these have been said before:
Neutral Milk Hotel- On Avery Island- Pree-Sisters Swallowing a Donkeys Eye: 14 minutes, and no substance. Just noise. Fantastic.
Belle and Sebastian- If You're Feeling Sinister- The Boy Done Wrong Again: This song is whiny and painful to listen to.
Modest Mouse- Good News for People Who Love Bad News- This Devil's Workday: It's like they're trying to suck, to piss off their fans.
They Might Be Giants- Factory Showroom- I Can Hear You: What is the point of this song? Does it matter if you recorded it at "Edison Laboratory"? No. It sucks.
Rilo Kiley- More Adventurous- Ripchord: More Adventurous was actually a mediocre album, but I just wanted to point out how bad 'Ripchord' is. It actually makes me miss the days when Blake Sennett thought he was Elliott Smith.
Modest Mouse-Building Nothing out of Something- Workin' on Leavin' the Living: In heaven... everything is fine. In heaven... everything's alright. Repeated for 6 minutes of the track's 6 minutes and 40 seconds. It's very annoying.
The New Pornographers- Twin Cinema- Three or Four: Someone mentioned this. I concur.
By the way, did you know "7/4 (Shoreline)" by Broken Social Scene is in 7/4? You learn something every day.

--- Quote from: Hat ---I actually heard a version of [Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds] that didn't totally suck on the radio at work a few years ago. I know it exists. It was awesome. The album version just makes me want to punch people. I dont know where the other version was from. Anyone know about this? Am I crazy?

It was by William Shatner!

--- Quote from: Merkava ---
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.

I agree Wild Pack of Family Dogs is a weak track but Different City and Tiny Cities are both excellent tracks. In any case, they're part of the album. You can't just throw in random songs from previous albums -Moon and Antarctica wasn't a greatest hits record. Even Wild Pack of Family Dogs is really just a short transition between the darker and colder section of the album (The Cold Part through The Stars are Projectors) and the more bittersweet but optimistic ending.
Taking out those songs would just make it a different album entirely.

What's funny is that I hate Rilo Kiley and find them bland with very little substance, but Ripchord is probably the only Rilo Kiley song I even sort of like.
