What do you guys think are the best album titles out there. I don't mean a single word or something but something really profound and deep. Something that makes you really stop and think when you read it.

The only album title that I know that fulfills this criteria IMO is Modest Mouse - Good News For People Who Love Bad News.
Well, do you need a lot of what you've got to survive?

  • Not profound or deep but the I liked the way one of my local music shops had lined up their cd's :

    Radiohead .. Hail to the Thief
    then in the row next to it
    System of a Down .. Steal This Album

    obviously unintentional, just the way S follows R :D




    .... or is it ?? ;)

    Well, not personally...

    Yep, I like Kyuss. Blues..., Sky Valley, and ...Circus... are all cracking albums. As is the first QOTSA one (shame about the rest of them).

    I agree with you on the Primus - Sailing The Seas of Cheese one. I also thought The Brown Album was a clever name too.

    I saw Monster Magnet supporting QOTSA a few years back. Pretty decent set, even if QOTSA didn't play Mexicola.

  • Down On THe Upside is a good one, I even have it in my collection but forgot about it, just like Songs For The Deaf. Another one from my collection that I think is pretty deep is Screaming Trees "Even If And Especially When". I also liked A Silver Mt. Zion - He Has Left Us Alone But Shafts Of Light Sometimes Grace The Corner Of Our Rooms although I've never heard about that band.

    Thanks for the responses so far :D

    Yeah, but they don't make me think. There's also a band called Schrottgrenze and their new album is called Chateau Schrottgrenze which is phonological overkill and therefore funny as hell (maybe even funnier if you speak German and French). But they don't make me think like titles as In Through The Out Door. There are lots of cool titles but it's the philosophical ones that fascinate me most.
