Favourite albums from other genres?

Been listening to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon today and it got me thinking

Off the top of my head some of mine are:

Dark Side of the Moon

Powerage - ACDC

Hyperbollicsyllabicsesquedaylimystic - Isaac Hayes (Public enemy sampled the title track)

Ive listened to Thriller more since MJs death as well and even though its more like a collection of singles than a cohesive album its great too

Been re-visiting this a bunch lately:

Favourite Non Hip Hop Albums Ween-godweensatan-300x300

Ween is probably my favorite band of all time. And they put on the best live show I ever witnessed.

Some other favorites would be Pink Floyd, Green Day (even though the new one is a bit lame), Red Hot Chili Peppers (up there close to Ween), Weezer, Beck (haven't liked his more recent work), Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis, Metallica, Chemical Brothers, Bob Dylan. I could list them all day, but I'll stop there.

Deftones-White Pony
Korn-Issues

are both those bands' worst albums by far IMO. I don't listen to much other than hip hop anymore but I was a big rap-metal head in high school (go figure, right?) and out of either of their catalogues those are...awful. In my opinion.

The only albums I really spin that aren't hip hop are

Damien Rice-O
Cold-13 Ways To Bleed Onstage

both albums are front to back skipproof classics.

White Pony, horrible?? No fuckin' way...I respect your opinion Nero, but that album is definitely a highlight in their catalog...still in rotation..

Nero is off base calling White Pony horrible, it's not as good as Around the Fur, but it's still a dope CD.

Actually I think it is because N3RO claimed to be a big rap-metal fan in high school that he doesn't like that album. It was a big change from their previous sound, and didn't resemble the rock that other bands such as Korn were making popular at the time.
