What album could you not live without?
I'm not asking what you think is the best album ever.
I'll start with Big Black - Songs about fucking.
no weak tracks.
Albini's sleeve notes.
The lines
"I think I fucked your girlfriend once,
maybe twice, I don't remember.
Then I fucked all your friends' girlfriends,
now they hate you."
not that we approve of that sort of behaviour.

Bah, I thought this was going to be about the Highlander. Just thinking about that film is making my brain haemorrhage.
Mine would be Daydream Nation, yeah I know I'm alwawys going on about it. It's probably the first album I bought that I'm not embarrassed about, and is probably the one I've listened to most.

Patrick Wolf - Lycanthropy. Spells out an entire philosophy for life that I've had rattling around in my head for so long, wrapped up in beautiful handmade,,, musical... wrapping paper.
That simile kinda went wrong.
"Let no foot mark your ground,
let no hand hold you down!"

Converge - Jane Doe.
Listening to it is like being murdered and then resuscitated.

Jane Doe is good - it took me a while to get into it, and I almost burst out laughing the first time I heard it.

Bah, I thought this was going to be about the Highlander. Why could there only be one? Sean Connery and Lambert go on alright as far as i could see. That fucking Russian had to ruin everything. |

I don't listen to anything more than I listen to Loveless or Hatful of Hollow, so I'm going for either of them.

'Yankee Hotel Foxtrot'. I haven't listened to it much recently, but I just cannot imagine being without it. For me, the hype surrounding it was (and still is) totally justified. Most life-changing records come to you in your youth, but this is one from my mid-20s. Wow.

Pretty much agree with Stuart (yeah, yeah, we are actually different people, it's just a bit difficult to tell sometimes)
for the sake of variety I'll go with Spiderland by Slint
