I'm late to the party but couldn't miss putting Daily Bread's album Invisible Cinema in the thread

• The Foo Fighters - The Foo Fighters
• The Foo Fighters - The Color & The Shape
• 65daysofstatic - Wild Light
• Frank Turner - England Keep My Bones
• The Weakerthans - Left and Leaving

There isn't a note I'd change on any of those albums.

Imo, Animals - Pink Floyd. And I'm also very partial to The Wall xD

A Pleasant Shade of Gray - Fates Warning

• KMFDM - Nihil
• Tool - Lateralus
• Dog Fashion Disco - Adultery

"Warrior" by Anilah is one of my favorites, not sure if it's technically an album or an EP. I don't even know what genre to call it. The closest things I know are neoclassical groups like Dargaard, but I don't think it fits under that label. It's definitely not metal either, maybe folk music or electronic?

The Orb - Orbvs Terrarvm

A few I can think of right now:

AC/DC - If You Want Blood (maybe cheating a bit because it's a compilation of songs from different albums, but it's the best live album of all time to me and AC/DC at their rockingest.)

All Them Witches - Dying Surfer Meets His Maker or Nothing A The Ideal (both albums warrant a full playthrough almost always.)

Elephant Tree - Elephant Tree (my favorite album of the last decade)

Elder - Dead Roots Stirring (although Elder keep getting better and better, and are ever more amazing live, this album has a special place in my heart)

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (masterpiece from beginning to end.)

Ys by Joanna Newsom, gives me goosebumps almost every time I listen to it. Very much about real life, but presented like a fairytale. And the vocals are incomparable to anything else I've heard. If anyone has suggestions about similar albums, please let me know

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - Wilco

Twin Fantasy - Car Seat Headrest

Perfect from Now On - Built to Spill

Splendor and Misery by Clipping is phenomenal. A sci-fi hip-hop album that tells the story of an escaped slave who takes over the ship and forms a bond with the ship's AI. I love concept albums that tell a complete story and this is one of the best in my opinion

Some of my picks would be: Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd, Wish you were Here - Pink Floyd, Random Access Memories - Daft Punk, Blue - Joni Mitchell, Betty Davis - Self titled, Mothership Connection - Parliament, Buena Vist Social Club - Self titled, Pat Metheny - Bright Size Life, Pat Metheny and Charlie Haden - Beyond the Missouri Sky, The Cat Empire - Self titled, Eryka Badu - Baduizm, Meshell Ndegeocello - Peace Beyond Passion, Jamiroquai - Emergency on Planet Earth, John Martyn - One World, Korn - Self titled, Pearl Jam - Ten, Rage Against the Machine - Self titled, Red Hot Chili Peppers - Mother's Milk
