Of their first (read: only to me) 5 albums AJFA is my least favorite.

In fact while I'm at it rarely listen past the first three. MOP is the best, then KEA, then RTL.

-----------------------------

anyway...

my top 5 are somewhere in here....

'Prick' - Prick
'This is what you want, this is what you get' - Public Image Ltd.
'Atomiser' (CD:'Rich man's 8-track') - Big Black
'Spiderland' - Slint
'Paradise don't come cheap' - New Kingdom
'Rabies' - Skinny Puppy
'Substance' - Joy Division
'The Land of rape and honey' - Ministry
'Horse Rotorvator' - Coil
'Last Rights' - Skinny Puppy
'Love of life' - the Swans
'The great anihilator' - the Swans
'Reign in Blood' - Slayer
'Master of puppets' - Metallica
'Number of the beast' - Iron Maiden
'Psalm 69' - Ministry
'Scatology' - Coil
'Fire Dances' - Killing Joke
'Night Time' - Killing Joke
'Pandemonium' - Killing Joke
'Loves Secret Domain' - Coil
'Fireside favorites' - Fad Gadget
'Civilian' - Frank Tovey
'Confessions of a knife' - My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult
'When the kite string pops' - Acid Bath
'Mods carve the pigs, toads, assasins, and godsflesh' - Thought Industry
'Too Dark Park' - Skinny Puppy
'Rabies' - Skinny Puppy
'Bites' - Skinny Puppy
'Tabula Rasa' - Einsturzende Neubauten
'Lea' Rouge' - The Young Gods
'the young gods' - the young gods
'Trait' - Pailhead
'the last temptation of reid' - Lard
'the downward spiral' - nine inch nails
'Gash' - Foetus
'Nail' - Scraping Foetus off the wheel
'the commercial album' - the Residents

and that's leaving out a LOT.

>>The Adventures of Heinrich Von Bastard<< (A Web Comic)

Also: The Chefelf.com Lord of the Rings | RoBUTZ (a primative webcomic) | KOTOR 1 NPC profiles |

Oh, sorry. It's just that lately I've been hearing Dan spout off about the wonders of AJFA that I thought it was universally well-regarded...

The music is good, it's just that it has no direction. Songs meander, then wonder off all togther getting lost for several minutes before comming back to finish as an after thought.

The album reeks of cocain.

Ah. Which means you should be doing cocaine when listening to it, I gather?

I consider all the first four albums equally and incredibly awesome, although Master and Justice have a few extra points for profesionalism IMO...
And Bond, STFU about matters you know nothing about, please. I've told you, if you don't know what you're talking about, don't post.

Dan, I was responding to barend; I didn't mean to offend you. Please accept my most humble apology.

Bond, you have no reason to apologize.
Dan, he wasn't speaking to you, and I get the faintest hint that he may have been making what we commonly refer to as a "joke". A "joke" is a statement made in jest, or for comedic effect, and is not meant to be taken seriously. Understand? Good. Now settle down.

Getting back on track....

I don't think I could name five favourite albums.

However, Thin Lizzy - Live and Dangerous is probably my favourite album of all time, then there's Master of Puppets, stuff by Squarepusher, the Locust and Agoraphobic Nosebleed after that. Or something.

Only in Rhode Island!

Now, back to what Spann said. Or something...

The Locust are one of the most important bands making heavy music today. Since their self-titled LP (or at least, the self-titled one printed on camouflage vinyl, if you want to call that an LP) they have released one consistently excellent effort after another without fail, and they're constantly evolving as musicians and as a band.
Besides their unbelievable talent, it takes a special band to be able to either amaze, or completely alienate the listener with little to no middle ground.
