    The last one was Thom Yorke's The Eraser, but Isis' In The Absense of Truth is blowing my mind as I type this message.

    "Powder Burns" by the Twilight Singers. I can't listen to anything else (besides PJ).

    ultimately aren´t many albums around who blow my mind, but in the last years...

    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....
  • Pearl Jam-Vs.

    Black Crowes- Amorica

    Those are the two of the past few years

    Deftones - Saturday Night Wrist

    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

  • 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)

    Mastodon- Blood Mountain

    A seriously great album.
    Charlotte 00
    Charlotte 03
    Asheville 04
    Atlanta 12
    Greenville 16, Columbia 16
    Seattle 18 
    Nashville 22

    The Beatles - Love

    Mojo
    "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

    Spiritualized-Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space

    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.
  • ladytron - witching hour
  • Only one has blown my mind in the last 6 years and thats Green Day-American Idiot. The energy on that album is huge.
    I'll be back
  • Sigur Ros, ()

    Takk is amazing in places, but not like ()

    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!
    "I'm here to see Pearl Jam."- Bono

    ...signed...the token black Pearl Jam fan.
