MOPED ARMY

I have lots of favourite albums in many a genre, but this album is the one that gets played most on the old record player.

Live And Dangerous is the only correct answer.

The Smiths - Strangeways (a genius and bittersweet final album of an iconic band)

Bad Religion - No Control ( I still remember every single fucking word, beginning to end)

Depeche Mode - 101 (The 80's were coming to a close and it was a summer of pure magic)

Air - Moon Safari (The 90's were coming to a close and we hadn't a care in the world.)

Brian Eno - Music For Airports (hands down, my first and best choice for peaceful, meditative early morning hikes)

Honestly I have beef with all of your picks 😂

Music for the masses and Talkie Walkie are in my top 25 all time

solid

New Order's Movement

first album so still lots of Ian Curtis energy, peter hook singing, opens up with the first track that is a cerrtified banger

I feel like Low-Life is the proper medium between the morbid post punk of Joy Division, and the loathsome club kids that New Order became on Technique.

Also it still has plenty of dark humor.

honestly I'm even fine with Republic, it's a totally adequate art pop joint. 2000's to now can go away though

That's a vintage bush!

lol, is a loathsome club kid gonna have to cut a bitch?!?

for me at the time the goth scene was getting real boring and that neon green and purple bullshit started creeping into the clubs and suddenly every fat girl had platform boots, a corset, and thought they were amanda palmer.

The unattainable, pompous, uber-cool art school girls were gone and suddenly every kid who liked The Cure and worked at Hot Topic was a goth.

So the gay clubs were where it was at for good dance music and the hottest straight girls who didn't wanna go dancing with college shitheads everywhere.

New Order, Joy Division, Bauhaus, Erasure, DM, etc wasn't "hip" or mainstream like it is today. So instead of having to put up with every skinny jean hipster-bro expounding on the life of Ian Curtis over their favorite Bourbon, you had something that nobody else cared about.

It was unique and special.

Now they use 'The The' songs to sell fucking M&M's and Depeche Mode is hocking VW's.

It reminds me when my old man saw (i think it was) Dennis Hopper on TV selling Mercedes Benz or some shit a bunch of years ago and was like "wtf, man. you sold out."

Mercedes AMG super bowl spot. lol some hacks at my ad agency worked on that. Wild corny.

Axis bold as love.

Volume 4

A nice pair

The doors.

Trick of the tail.

In the OP Junior referenced the album “that gets played the most.”

So, if I’m being honest, by that rule my “favorite” album is Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold.

All their albums are downloaded in my phone and get a lot of action.

I run 25+ miles a week now. Almost exclusively using A7X as workout and run music.

It’s great for driving and chilling. Even fall asleep to it sometimes.

They have 0 fluff and album fillers. I can play every album from beginning to end without ever wanting to skip a track.

Same can be said for my love of Pink Floyd. which would probably have my actual favorite album. But I don’t use them as much.
