Boards of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children
"I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"
Truly one of my favorite album titles....I also like:

All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever. Because this is just a ride." And we...kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok? But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.

Junior Kimbrough - Most Things Haven't Worked Out:
The legendary bluesman sums up an entire lifestyle with this title.
Camp Lo - Uptown Saturday Night:
The album title lets you know where you're going...one look at the cover art and you know exactly WHEN...if the blaxploitation era had a hip-hop soundtrack, it would be Uptown Saturday Night.
Naughty by Nature - 19 Naughty III:
After literally saving a genre and spawning some of the biggest rap anthems of all time, the hype surrounding this release made it feel like it was, in fact, their time to take over the world. Plenty of other bands could stake that claim, but none can make the album title work.
Firewater - Songs We Should Have Written:
Best title for a cover album
Blink 182 - Take off Your Pants and Jacket:
Probably my favorite album title ever and it's from a band I absolutely cannot stand...My wife and I say this phrase everytime we hear the word jacket.
