Closest thing I can come up with would be Mezzanine by Massive Attack. Sheer brilliance.

I have no idea what meme you are referring to, but I've been meaning to buy Spiderland since forever. Is it really as legendary as everyone says?

it's pretty much worth the price for Nosferatu Man and Good Morning, Captain alone, but I don't know if it really lives up to the hype as a whole

Hardest ever.

I'll do it by genre.

Punk - X-Ray Spex "Germ-Free Adolescents"



Folk, Punk - Andrew Jackson Jihad "Can't Maintain"



Folk - Iron and Wine "Our Endless Numbered Days"



Hip hop - Wu-Tang Clan "Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)"



Electronic - The Knife "Deep Cuts"



Classic - Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here"




If I had to choose one album out of these I absolutely couldn't do without, it would be Can't Maintain or Deep Cuts.

Right now it's this....



Recorded in the 50s, transferred straight from the original tapes onto SACD, sounds better than *any* recording I've *ever* heard in my life. Except for maybe some jazz recordings on a certain Japanese label . But really, this recording of Scheherazade sounds minblowing. You have to hear it on a good system/pair of headphones capable of reproducing the acoustics properly though. But when you do, man, everything is clear as daylight and hits you in the face more than any recording I've heard. Especially the last movement, which was recorded in a single take.
