louder than love and led zeppelin II

may be you would call it "hard rock", but its just straight up rock to me. I would list more but after that there would be so many: beatles - revolver, pearl jam - vs., pj - ten, alice in chains - dirt, led zeppelin - III, soundgarden - badmoterfinger and on and on, but i can put those two on top of it all (right now anyways)

    louder than love just rocks like hell. I wish they'd used the original name though, Louder than Fuck.

    My vote is Dirt by Alice in chains

    AC/DC - Let There Be Rock....come on....

    and ho hum...Nevermind...now a classic...but if you wanna go later then that, then...Sabbath's Paraniod for Fairies Wear Boots and Hand of Doom.

    Led Zeppelin -Physical Graffiti

    Alice In Chains - Jar Of Flies

    hard to beat those two, for me

    Harmacy is a good album BUT Bakesale is a classic......I would also recommend Bubble and Scrape, III, and Smash Your Head On the Punk Rock

    Sebadoh is basically Lou Barlow (who was the bassist with Dinosaur Jr). They started releasing albums around 1990 and were kinda the pioneers of the whole Lo-Fi indie scene. Basically they just make really good, catchy, heartfelt indie rock that ranges from the insanely beautiful to the really ugly/messy/noisy/dirty. Their albums can be a little uneven - kinda hit or miss BUT Bakesale is amazing from start to finish.

    aside: Kurt Cobain was a big fan of the band.

    If you want to check out some songs, I recommend these:

    Smash Your Head....: Brand New Love
    III: Spoiled
    Bubble And Scrape: Think(Let Tomorrow Bee)
    Bakesale: Careful, Not Too Amused, Dreams, Skull, Together Or Alone
    Harmacy: Crystal Gypsy, Beauty Of The Ride
    The Sebadoh: Flame, Love Is Stronger

    I like the sound of that. I very nearly bought III last week but got some other stuff instead. I'll borrow one of their albums off my friend and see what they've got going, or maybe buy it if I see it used

    Get BAKESALE - i guarantee you wont be disappointed

    .....although Bakesale is kinda their "commercial" album - if you want something a little more out there, then try any of the other 4 mentioned

    The White Album and Vitalogy for me.

    Right at this point in time I'm gonna say:

    Dirt - Alice in Chains
    Temple of the Dog - Temple of the Dog

    this of course could change at any moment, far too many amazing albums to choose from

    In my book London Calling is the best rock album of all time. Nothin will ever beat it. Haven't a clue what I'd have as number 2 though.
    I'll Ride The Wave Where It Takes Me
  • Scratchin a LetterScratchin a Letter Posts: 2,303
    Beggars' Banquet - The Rolling Stones (just perfect... R&R at its best)

    Led Zeppelin IV (yeh II is good but nowhere near as good as this)

    Closely followed by London Calling, Ten, Who's next, LA Woman and Rust never sleeps
