I'm going out on Tuesday to get Merriweather Post Pavillion, so I decided I may as well make this my first album buying-spree of the year. Here's whats on my list, if you have any reccomendations, pleas post them.
Note: I'm excluding MPP from this list, and also i'll probably only get a few of these. This is the list i'll take with me to the store though, and i'll get what I can find. | 1 | | Franz Ferdinand Tonight: Franz Ferdinand
I love synth-pop, and i've heard good things about this. Also, Ulysses is awesome. | 2 | | Say Anything ...Is A Real Boy
Someone who's musical opinion I hold in great respect highly recommended this to me, and I like what i've heard of the band, so I think i'll give this a shot. | 3 | | The Beatles Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
I may not get THIS album specifically, but i'm determined to get some Beatles. I dont have any Beatles albums, so I think i'll just grab whichever one I can find. | 4 | | Beach Boys Pet Sounds
I've already heard this album once, and I loved it, so I think i'll buy a hard copy. | 5 | | Oasis Whats The Story Morning Glory
Wonderwall+Champagne Supernova=Win. Also, this seems like one of those albums that you should listen to once. | 6 | | Radiohead The Bends
How do I not have any Radiohead albums? Seriously, they're like $10 each the music store I go to. | 7 | | Weezer Maladroit
I know that this will pretty much suck, but i'm an obsessed Weezer fan and this is the only album by them that I don't have. So, I may as well get it if it's cheap enough. | 8 | | Arctic Monkeys Whatever People Say I Am....
I'm currently trying to get as many great albums from this decade as I can so that I can do an end of the decade list. I've been recommended this one, and I like the singles i've heard from it, so I may get it if its cheap enough. | 9 | | Pink Floyd Dark Side Of The Moon
Like The Beatles, I don't know if i'll get THIS one specifically. But I feel that I need to listen to at least one Pink Floyd album, just because they're so famous. | 10 | | At The Drive-In Relationship of Command
I've heard a lot of praise for this band, and I want to see what all the hype is about. | |

01.17.09 | Beach Boys?? Man you really like those guys? | Yazz_Flute
01.17.09 | 9 is really good, but Wish You Were Here is more rewarding, i havent heard any of their other albums in full.
10 is the best on the list.
6 is a great album but you should get OK Computer cuz it really is their best. | Nagrarok
01.17.09 | The Bends is easier to get into though. | AmnesiacR
01.17.09 | I can't decide whether OpethFreak is a horrible troll, or just horribly ignorant.
Pet Sounds is amazing--and stick with The Bends for getting into Radiohead, then move chronologically. That system works pretty well for new listeners. | Burning_October
01.17.09 | @OpethFreak: Do you NOT like Beach Boys?
@:bodominflames: Yeah, I just put Dark Side there as a sort of placeholder for any Pink Floyd album I can find. I'll look out for Wish You Were Here, now, though, thanks for the tip!
Also, I think i'll start with The Bends, just because I love what i've heard from that so much. | dankeyes11
01.17.09 | 3: try to get sgt. peppers lonely hearts club band if you have options
6: try to get ok computer
9: try to get wish you were here
i know those are placeholders, but if you have choices - those are the ones to go with IMO | Burning_October
01.17.09 | I'm also adding:
Death Cab For Cutie- Transatlanticism
Interpol- Turn On The Bright Lights
Modest Mouse- The Moon & Antartica
Wilco- Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Brand New- The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me
To my list. Thoughts? | Fugue
01.18.09 | 35689 are what i have heard on this list; all are awesome. Cant wait for 1 to be released so I can review it, better be better than 'You could have it so much better' | Shadowskos
01.18.09 | 2,4,6 and 10 are my picks |
