after watching last night, Elton could comfortably fill a double greatest hits album without a bad track on it
He did release a double CD greatest hits album in the early 90s I think (could have been very late 80s). I received a copy as a welcome gift to one of those CD clubs.
Iron Maiden: The Number Of The Beast and Powerslave Slayer: Reign In Blood My Dying Bride: The Angel And The Dark River Tool: Lateralus Paradise Lost: Shades Of God Dire Straits: Dire Straits REM: Document Radiohead: OK Computer U2: War Portishead: Dummy
Parachutes was the last Coldplay album i thought was decent, that said have now seen them live a few times and they do put on a decent show, probably need to otherwise the audience would be asleep.
Possibly because I've just seen Muse play a lot of the tracks on the album that I'd not listened to properly before, I'm going with;

See now, I love Lateralus, but I don't really think it belongs on this thread. Certainly, as a whole album it's something you listen to from start to finish. But you can't honestly tell me you'd happily sit there and listen to Eon Blue Apocalypse, Mantra and Faaip De Oaid on their own? 'No bad tracks', to me, should mean that every single track is worth listening to.
Start a thread called 'Albums that should be listened to from start to finish', and Lateralus is top 10.

Muse - will of the people
Wasn’t expecting to see that on this thread.
I was a huge Muse fan 10 years or so ago, and even nominated one of their albums on this thread. But their last 2-3 albums have been largely dreadful IMO.
Haven’t seen a band that offered such innovation in their early albums decline so quickly.
Been listening to block partys silent alarm recently in the car, (btw great album to drive to). Forgot how good it was. Really well put together for a debut album.
