    End of Silence and Weight may be his more popular ones.

    I prefer Come in and Burn and Get Some Go Again.

    I don't think any of his suck though.

    you know i have this thing with henry rollins. i love the man as a person. his conviction is beyond reproach in my book. but i can't listen to his music. his writing has had such a profound influence on my own writing that i can't bring myself to really get deep into his music. it's not ignorance. i just have to keep his two sides apart.
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    I like the classic Rollins Band lineup on End of Silence, Weight and Come in and Burn. The musicans there were solid. From Get Some go Again and Nice, he just had some band metal cover band and they weren't as musically sound.

    Get Some Go Again is a good listen. Most of his stuff from "weight" is pretty accessable, not too wild. His backing band (Mother Superior) on later records is top notch.
