Title: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: Refused on November 14, 2006, 03:17:04 PM Well, the year is drawing to a close so I guess it's not too early to discuss the best albums of the year? Perhaps when this year is finally over we can have a proper poll type thing to decide!
The Bronx, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly and We Are Scientists all spring to mind impressing me very much! I shall have a proper think, and a browse through my albums before I write more extensively about some of my favourite albums this year! Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: axlrosegnr on November 14, 2006, 03:22:50 PM So far I'd say "15" - Buckcherry
Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: CheapJon on November 14, 2006, 03:25:44 PM buckcherry - 15

Mastodon - Blood Mountian Lamb Of God - Sacrament Strapping Young Lad - The New Black Isis - In The Absense Of Truth (currently listening to make sure!) Of big name releases Maiden and Slayer's albums were not among the best efforts of either band sadly. I also admit I only gave Stadium Arcadium one listen but it sounded like coffee-table (i.e. watered down) rock to me. I guess the Chilis are getting older! Was looking forward to United Abominations and obviously CD, but both will hopefully surface in 2007... Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: vietnow138 on November 16, 2006, 11:01:24 PM Red Hot Chilli Peppers- Stadium Arcadium
Iron Maiden- A Matter of life and Death (def. not their best work but at least better than their last few releases) Wolfmother- S/T JET- Shine on (The first time I listened to this I couldn't believe how much they've improved, WAAAY better than Get Born) Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: metallex78 on November 16, 2006, 11:22:36 PM JET- Shine on (The first time I listened to this I couldn't believe how much they've improved, WAAAY better than Get Born) Well considering how crap they were to begin with, I suppose there's always room for improvement... :hihi: I'm sorry, showing your influences is one thing, but these guys just flat out copy early AC/DC almost to the point of plagiarism.

Do yourself a favour and check out the original and best - Bon Scott era AC/DC Wow arent you witty. Just so you know I was into AC/DC way before I ever heard Jet. I had, and still have, almost every album they released. I can see how you could see them as strongly showing there influences but they arent ripping them off to the point of plagarism as you put it. Infact there's not very much AC/DC influence on the new record and they happened to have written some damn good songs. BTW as far as music goes this year I'd much rather hear a band that sounds like AC/DC than all that emo shit thats out right now. Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006!

Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: Eazy E on November 17, 2006, 02:09:29 AM So I glanced over my records after seeing this thread... and the only CDs I purchased were indie bands.
I guess the mainstrem albums I've enjoyed the most this year would be: 1. Ben Harper - Both Sides Of The Gun 2. Lupe Fiasco - Food & Liqour 3. Ziggy Marley - Love Is My Religion 4. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium ... and I recommend everybody check out Tumi And The Volume & Ohbijou.... Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006!

And yeah I suppose I'd prefer an AC/DC sounding band to some emo crap. But I just don't like Jet, they're so unoriginal and people claim them to be the best thing since sliced bread, same with Wolfmother... How about taking those AC/DC influences and creating a new original sound rather than copying it? Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006!

Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: fixintodie on November 20, 2006, 07:06:12 AM In no particular order...
Bob Dylan - Modern Times Meat Loaf - Bat Out Of Hell III Johnny Cash - American V Tori Amos - A Piano (Box Set) Lucinda Williams - Car Wheels On A Gravel Road (Deluxe Edition) The Beatles - Love The Dresden Dolls - Yes Virginia Mew - And The Glass Handed Kites Bic Runga - Birds Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: Psychophobia on November 20, 2006, 09:06:30 AM Great albums:
Tool - 10,000 Days The Who - Endless Wire Buckethead - Crime Slunk Scene Okay albums: Ian Gillan - Gillan's Inn Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death Disappointments: Slayer - Christ Illusion Eric Clapton & J.J. Cale - The Road to Escondido Queensryche - OMII Joe Satriani - Super Colossal Overall, I found 2006 to be a bit of a dry year. I'd really been looking forward to a couple of these albums (especially Slayer, Gillan, and 'Ryche), but they just weren't as good as I hoped. The Who album was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting the worst, given that Entwistle and Moon have been replaced, but Daltrey and Townshend surprised me. Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: fixintodie on November 20, 2006, 11:32:34 AM The Who album was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting the worst, given that Entwistle and Moon have been replaced, but Daltrey and Townshend surprised me. Well, to be fair, since Entwhistle and Moon are both dead, replacing them would be the logical thing to do. Unless you want some really lifeless performances... :peace: Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: Psychophobia on November 20, 2006, 01:53:19 PM The Who album was a pleasant surprise.

I also liked Tool's new one. Pearl Jam was good, and The Chili Peppers had too much filler on Arcadium to call it great, it is a great 1 disc album, an ok 2 disc album Beck's new album is cool..and Tom Petty's Highway companion has it's moments Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006!

Best re-issue: Depeche Mode - Violator [remastered] Their best album, now sounding better and with nice bonuses. /jarmo Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006!

Post by: AxlsMainMan on January 03, 2007, 05:24:42 PM I didn't purchase many albums this year, but of the ones I did purchase, I would have to say The Chili Pepper's Stadium Arcadium is probably my favorite album of 2006. There is some truly amazing tracks on this double-disc package that I listen to still, almost daily.
Oh yeah, and the brand new Guns N' Roses leaks are easily my other favorite release of this year, eventhough they came free of charge ;D Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006!

Title: Re: Your favourite albums of 2006! Post by: Krispy Kreme on January 05, 2007, 11:02:16 PM Most of the stuff I bought this year was older stuff, but I really liked the Who album and of course Neil Young Living with War. It was real and very rough--real Neil, like grunge. A lot of people mentioned Dylan's Modern Times so I will have to check it out.
