THE BAND THE LAST WALTZ!!!
or
Pearl Jam Ten!!:thumbsup

There's no way there will NEVER EVER be a good band to start again. There are still creative people in the world as well as gifted musicians, so to say that all that will ever come out again is shit is more of a negative opinion on the current state of music. Agreed, there hasn't been much, but that doesn't mean a new band can't get together tomorrow and come out with some great music.

Don't be so negative, have some hope dude.

Spice 1 is a classic glad someone appreciates good music...:pimp

Quoted for emphasis. :winkwink:

love these

Oh, Tribe Called Quest, good call. Forgot about that one.

I haven't stated that there aren't, I more like mentioned they won't make it to the radio or TV, at least in the way we know them.

As I mentioned here already - my mates won a national rock band contest - like a Marlboro rock in or something - they topped 760 other signed bands and they were VERY original and had some great playin skills.

Once they received the contract from SONY entertainment - it was the worst piece of shit I ever seen:

- had to agree to produce 5 albums in 5 years
- they had to obey any creative ideas about the way their videos will look like / not to agree menas termination of the contract
- they had to agree with the way their music will look like / not to agree or change anything means termination of the contract
- they have to play ANYWHERE they are sent by the management.. (means any TV piece of shit show etc.)
- they had to agree with about 10 cents from each record sold (seriously)

So they would become another super pseeudo boring mainstream band suited for people without any taste in music, they declined to sign and play in clubs and tour on their own eversince..:2 cents:

Amen to that.
I would also like to add
ANY Offspring or Puddle of Mudd. Either of those bands/albums you can just hit play and know your going to hear some great music.

It's not like that here and the system is different but that sucks if new bands cant get on the radio in the ol US.

But hey does that matter? All the best bands are from the UK anyway! (apart from a few) :winkwink: :winkwink:

Brings back some great memories, "King for a day, fool for a lifetime" was another killer yet my all time most killing song from Faith comes from the pre-Patton era:

WE CARE A LOT!

Anytime I hear that I am behaving like beeing 17 again

Another one:

I am a serious fan of Tool and all of their albums, but Undertow is still the most anytime listenable..

My all time favorite:

Eric Clapton's Layla album, recorded as Derek and the Dominoes...

thank you corvette - two true benchmarks right there.

I'd also add

Public Enemy - It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back
The Rolling Stones - Exile On Main Street
The Doors - LA Woman
ACDC - If You Want Blood You've Got It

plus about a hundred others I cane all day every day....great thread :thumbsup

Exile On Main Street is often mentioned as the Stones' best album, but my fave is the album they released before Exile: Sticky Fingers... with the Andy Warhol cover.

To each it's own I guess now LOL

beatie boys a
hundred times

Dare I say Duran Duran's "Rio"? OK, I daren't.

A lot of good albums listed

how the fuck could i forget this one....

Looks seriously scary to me, Guru's Jazzmatazz I and II would be the only albums anywhere near to hip hop that I would be able to list for myself:

But again, this is mainly live recorded - real music, even the samples were live recorded I suppose, the words make total sense and the topics are very serious.

This music will always have a place in my Hall of Fame regardless my attitude to the Hip Hop genre in general, the vol.3 was a bit of a dissapointment to me.
