Good call.

[wobbegong]

Wow! Somebody else who has actually listened to this. I really like it. I once heard a critic of this that lambasted it.

I detect an age thing going on here so I will go with the younger soul in me.

Songs for the Deaf - Queens of the Stone Age
Silico - Pendulum

Not only "actually listened" to it, I bought it on vinyl when it was released and over the years bought it on cassette then on CD.

It is quite lidderraly, one of me all time favourite albums of all time.

What a great "show your age" thread...

Am I the only one who thinks the Pixies are w@n k?

Anyway, a few suggestions:

Leftfield - Leftism
Michael Jackson - Off the wall

and a recent purchase I made following seeing these guys live:

The A-Z of the cuban brothers - Cuban Brothers (basically a collection of funk and disco with an amusing commentary)

When I saw the cuban brothers in the summer it was just after Jacko died, and the lead singer said "I hope our music touches you, like Michael Jackson touches you, but not in an inappropriate way"

I think I'm more with TriggerHippy on this one ...

Mainstream

All good stuff and I agree with his choices (except Bowie, who I think is a pretentious tosser), but I thought I'd go off the beaten track a little... there are some good things over yonder
