All-time Favorite Album (any genre, no bashing)

Mine would have to be Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti, it has so many awesome songs on it. I love all Led Zeppelin's albums but if I had to pick one it would have to be this one. Led Zeppelin IV is a close second though. Some other honorable mentions are as follows...

Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Linkin Park - Meteora
Sublime (self-titled album)
System of a Down - Toxicity
Eminem - Slim Shady LP
Tupac Shakur - All Eyez On Me

Third Eye Blind (self-titled album)
Taking Back Sunday - Tell All Your Friends
Rage Against the Machine (self-titled album)
Red Hot Chili Peppers - By The Way
Incubus - Make Yourself
The Beatles - Revolver
The Doors (self-titled album)

Some albums I think would definately be there, some I wouldn't. Good list though.

Great list there Deathblow. No "White Pony" though? Maybe I'm alone in thinking it's their best album (I don't think that coz of "Passenger" either).

clapping I underlined highlights. 😉

Favourite album? Tough question

your not alone, dont worry...i think White Pony is the better 1 of all their albums aswell. i love the 'feel' of it for want of a better word

I think parts of it were harder than their past albums also, "Elite" for example. In itself that's a great song but I loved the stuff like "Change (In the House of Flies)" and "Digital Bath".

I've been in situations with my I wanna speed up the process, just play "Change (In the House of Flies)" and it's on haha. So gotta that Deftones for that.

I loved the self-titled and it had some great highlights. I think that's a comfortable blend between the 4.

-AC
