So, it's 2005. What would you say is the best album to come out in the past 5 years?

[CarlKillerMiller]

Now, I'm not going to say that this thread is just an excuse for me to make a trip to BB for some new music, but what would you people of ATOT say is the best album to come out in the past five years?

Please, old folks who think that all new music sucks, keep your comments to yourselves. I promise your silence will be noted.

Mine would have to be Interpol's "Turn on the Bright Lights"

Yours?

 

[kyparrish]

I think my vote would go towards Coldplay's "X&Y" or White Stripe's "White Blood Cells".

 

[Dissipate]

Get Rich or Die Tryin by 50 Cent, not the sound track to the movie but the 2003 album.

 

[BudAshes]

I vote for either Tools "Lateralus" or the newest Gorillaz.

 

[Leper Messiah]

shiiiiiiiit. I dunno. Since 2000...nothing comes to mind at all.

 

[ElFenix]

appetite for destruction

 

[jamesbond007]

Evanescence's "Fallen" album. Every song on there is appealing to me in some way or another. My Immortal is probably one of my top 5 all-time favorite songs!

 

[MartyMcFly3]

Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Live in Hyde Park" or "By The Way"

Cant wait for their new album to come out this coming year.

X&Y is so boring. It's got like 3 good songs on it, and the rest are just sleepers... I still dont know why people like the White Stripes.

Picking one is tough...
Gorillaz - Demon Days is a great full album, but if you take most of the songs and play them by themselves, they dont stand up alone.
Poe - Haunted is incredible, but there are a couple songs I skip every time I listen to it.
Tool - Lateralus was really good, but not their best.
The Killers - Hot Fuss only has one song that I cant stand.

This is hard... I'm gonna pick (for the time being anyway): The Postal Service - Give Up, even though it's short... I could listen to it all day long.

 

[monk3y]

I second TooL - Lateralus

 

[IronWing]

The Living Road - Lhasa de Sela

 

[Giscardo]

Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek - Reflektion Eternal

 

[Zim Hosein]

All new music sucks!

That album is awesome. I also really enjoyed Hot Fuss, and I bought a cd by the Perishers called Let There Be Morning, which I loooove. (Their song Sway is on the "College Rock" radio station in Sims 2 University, in Sim language. I love it.)

Shangri-La by Mark Knopfler

 

[alm4rr]

Reise, Reise - Rammstein

Hypnotize - System of a Down

Wake Up and Smell the Coffee - Cranberries

Futures - Jimmy Eat World

Do they have a new song out? I've heard a new song that sounds exactly like them on the radio recently and it was a kick ass song!

 

[Leper Messiah]

Toxicity came out in like 01, so I'll vote for that.

 

[AznAnarchy99]

System of a Down - Hyptnotize (100x better compared to mezmerize)
Jamie Foxx - Unpredictable (so good omg)
Coldplay - X&Y (cant stop listening and im a hardcore metal/rap listener)
Rammstein - Reise Reise (Rosenot was ok..)

 

[keeleysam]

All You Can't Leave Behind - U2
