Who do you think is the best band out there that has only one album? I'd have to vote for Wolfmother or Cold War Kids. What are your thoughts? Share, my friends.

    Best band I can think of with only two albums: The Darkness.

    Temple Of The Dog, duh! Or if we are going with only one studio album, I might say Jeff Buckley.

    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    Rites of Spring



    and For Want Of might just be the best song ever made.

    You're probably the person most prone to hyperbole I've ever met. :p

    TotD and Mad Season are two great ones. I was thinking more along the lines of bands still making music together as a band.

    When have I ever flamed you? :eek:


    ps, The Darkness blow :p

    All jokes aside, I loved Permission to Land when it first came out.

    In that case, I pass as all the bands I like have more than one album out :p

    Although, if they are still making music, is it safe to assume that those bands will soon not be eligible for this thread?

    As far as bands still making music goes, Cold War Kids.

    I knew someone would have to mention these idiots. they suck the big one. I'm not saying that every song on Nevermind the Bollocks is terrible because obviously that's not true. but these guys are the most overrated pile of shit I've ever heard. Rock N Roll hall of fame? with one album? I know everyone likes to note how influential they were on bands like the Clash and Ramones......but really.....the musicianship sucks and Johnny Rotton is the lamest frontman in the history of rock. *End Obviously Biased Anti-Sex Pistols Rant*

    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......
