Before that I think it was Guero by Beck, which is pretty old
“I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”
Its hard to take the suggestions in this thread seriosuly when Tenacious D and the self titled pearl jam are considered "mind blowing"
A side from The Pick of Destiny being a good fun listen. I wasn't being serious, but didn't feel that my sarcasm would be picked up on if I gushed about the latest Radiohead or Thom Yorke cd.
life is the study of dyin'
and how to do it right

"A consistently good band works all the different elements well. A song has to appeal sentimentally, intellectually, physically, viscerally, and dig deep down into your soul and suck you into it. And after that, of course, it'd be a matter of taste." ~ Kim Thayil from Soundgarden
I think Sigur Ros "takk" wins for me also. It would be too obvious for me to say "Pearl Jam" did, because any new Pearl Jam blows my mind.
Honorable Mentions go to:
Z- My Morning Jacket
Funeral- Arcade Fire
The Eraser- Thom Yorke
Love- The Beatles (it just works so beautifully)
wow!! I say the same records!! pretty awesome ones, specially the sigur ros record!! a masterpiece, beautiful music
also band of horses record it's awesome, new band but great record, and wolfmother's debut kick ass also! and TV on the Radio also! and The Rapture newest record!

I've been getting more into the roots/foundation of rock music in the past year so these have lately done it for me:
David Bowie - Aladdin Sane,Heroes
The Who - Quadrophenia,Sell Out
Pink Floyd - Animals
Bruce Springsteen - The Wild,the Innocent, & the E Street Shuffle
The Clash - London Calling,Sandinista!
The Cars - Candy-O
Metallica - Ride the Lightning,Master of Puppets
Oingo Boingo - Nothing to Fear
Billy Joel - Turnstiles,52nd Street
The Raconteurs- "Broken Boy Soldiers"
Surprised me with how good it is and how un-Jack White Jack White can sound. And how necessary a little bass really is!
Cold War Kids- "Robbers and Cowards"
Doomy piano, almost Dylan-like storytelling, the soulful punkish edge, the wailing of the vocals. Definitely one of the year's better releases!

Ascendancy- Trivium one of the best metal-metalcore album on the last years.... better than the crusade....
Thirhteen step- A perfect circle an exquisite sound....
Out of exile- audioslave not as heavy and obscure as their first album, but their sound gets better here, no.1 zero, out of exile, classics...
Songs of the deaf- Qotsa great...
One day remains- Alter bridge when you started to hear the album you´ll forget the song open your eyes, really good...
Subliminal verses- Slipknot ummm not many friends of them here.... their best album...
and wilco, my morning jacket, muse, the roots has great songs, but they´re not of those groups who i´d adore like gods....
Black Crowes- Amorica
Those are the two of the past few years
that's a pretty flawless album.
ive also been hooked on the flaming lips lately... mainly their last two.
Word!

The Gleam- The Avett Brothers
Halfway there & the Electricity of the South- the everybodyfields
It came out in 1998 but I didn't hear it until fall of 2000. I was in a bad headspace and this album was part of what saved me.
Takk is amazing in places, but not like ()
