| The Best Of 2005
The Best of... Series continues with 2005. | | 1 |  | Opeth
Ghost Reveries
Opeth never seems to disappoint. Which each album, they seem to get more progressive while keeping the hard/soft metal charm that's made them so popular. | | 2 |  | Spoon
Gimme Fiction
Spoon's unique brand of indie rock is here just like always; just a little bit more refined and experimental this time around. | | 3 |  | Nine Inch Nails
With Teeth
Horribly underrated album that explored the more mainstream edge of Trent Reznor's pet project. The album was wonderful, the 'dark' vibe it had to it was perfect for the style, its a great album. | | 4 |  | Beck
Guero
Beck just gets older and older and getting better and better. Not as depressing or irritating as Sea Change; a much refreshed Beck took back to the studio in a much lighter adventure. | | 5 | | Bright Eyes
I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
The lead singer's voice is so haunting, the music is surprisingly delicate and experimental...what else could you want? | | 6 |  | Gorillaz
Demon Days
Whether you like this band or not, they're unique, they try, and they're pretty cool. Their unique brand of hip-hop influenced rock and the weirdness of their music makes them a worthwhile listen. | | 7 |  | The Mars Volta
Frances the Mute
Even though I'm not really a big fan of their releases outside of their debut, I see what this album is trying to accomplish and how truly good and original this album is. | | 8 |  | Bloc Party
Silent Alarm
Not a big fan of the band, but the way this band rocks out while still seeming dignified and 'proper' intrigues me. | | 9 |  | Franz Ferdinand
You Could Have It So Much Better
Franz Ferdinand has always been a strange band; their music is poppy, much has a much 'darker' vibe and undertone than most rock/pop bands. Rather you like them or not, they're unique and very good. | | 10 |  | System of a Down
Mezmerize
System of a Down continues to mature their sound and get it down to a fine tune; the album was much more experimental, but still comes off as if System of a Down is still trying to keep their fans happy. | |

07.31.07 | That FF album isn't all that great. | Dis_Con_Nec_Ted
07.31.07 | ha, just bought #1 today...
i think 10 is one the best of 2005 too. | Yazz_Flute
07.31.07 | 10 is really good imo, SOAD's only better album is their debut imo. yeah, i think its better than Toxicity (which has a little too much filler imo) and tis eaily better than STA! and Hypnotize, which were both kinda average. | Doppelganger
07.31.07 | There are actually very few songs on Mezmerize that I can tolerate. | BallsToTheWall
07.31.07 | Theres better albums from 2005. 1 is great. | LifeInABox
07.31.07 | 1 and 10 are awesome. | Dis_Con_Nec_Ted
07.31.07 | ^i've heard the vocals suck, big time... | Electric City
07.31.07 | Frances the Mute was released in 05? Really? | astrel
08.01.07 | 7 does rule everything on this list. | Dis_Con_Nec_Ted
08.01.07 | 'doubt it. | Lunarfall
08.01.07 | Why is 10 being praised to fuc[size=2]k[/size] all of a sudden? It's a good album, but S/T, Toxicity and Hypnotize were better.
But what the hell...
*Listens to "This Cocaine Makes Me Feel Like I'm On This Song"*
And 1 was disappointing for me IMO. | LifeInABox
08.01.07 | 8 is kinda cool too. | Masochist
08.01.07 | #10 is my favorite album of all time. There was a time where I literally listened to it every single day, and it still hasn't gotten old. I'm glad to see it finally get some recognition, because I think it's unfairly overshadowed by Toxicity (which is also an awesome album).
#3 I think is definitely underrated, as well. | theminustimes
08.01.07 | some oare good but soem are just crap |
