What albums do yall listen to from beginning to end? There are plenty of artists and bands that I like with great songs but sometimes the album has filler in between the main tracks. Which albums do you feel like have little to no filler? I’d put up Chief Keef’s Finally Rich (debut album) Licensed To Ill by the Beastie Boys, maybe Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by Beatles, Curtis (1970) by Curtis Mayfield and Cuba Libre by Carlos Puebla. What are your favorites?
Lately I’ve been really into PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation and Fishing for Fishies by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. I have listened both like more than 30 times already.
No Gods / No Managers by Choking Victim is all bangers. The songs Money, Fuck America, and Praise the Sinners all sample Parenti speeches lol should definitely give it a listen all their stuff is great. Another ska-punk album I love is the self-titled Operation Ivy.
Warlord by Yung Lean and Eversince by Bladee are my favorite albums though.
Choking Victim
fascist band comrade

you should read up about Stza.
Its a shame, it is a great album but also you should know.
I don’t think it’s correct to call them a fascist band.
They disbanded in 98 and the allegations against Stza are from the 2010s, the fact that a single member became a POS over a decade later doesn’t determine what the band is a whole.
Idk, I fell that saying that is like saying that “I Want To Hold Your Hand” is leftist only because John Lennon became one years latter.
Its pretty ironic that John Lennon had a line in the song”Revolution” that goes “But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain’t gonna make it with anyone anyhow” and later on John Lennon became a supporter of Mao. He said that Mao was doing a lot of spectacular work in China and making it more equal and that he regretted the line in the song. Kinda sucks tho bc there are a lot of old people that uphold that line like its a bible verse

the band as a whole more or less never existed, they where active for a single day then broke up lol, based on that though I think its fair to disavow the ‘band’ because they themselves have distanced themselfs from Stza
I do agree with your wider points and if you still enjoy them thats fine, I really like the albums they put out too but it can be hard to seperate the art from the artist for me personally.
Any album by La Dispute’s Rooms of the House on back will pretty much never get a skip from me. Anti-Flag is also essentially my living anthem in band form.
Every time I listen to them, it makes me want to write poetry and scream lol. I do need to give Panorama another listen tho.
also also: I really recommend listening to Panorama with headphones or earbuds if you have them. A big criticism is that the mixing is shit and you can barely hear the vocals, but using my raycons that was rendered a complete non-issue.
Tame Impala Currents
Nirvana MTV Unplugged
B52s (self titled)
Whole bunch of others I’ve seen in this thread
its quickly becoming a favorite, but king gizzard’s new album petrodragonic apocalypse definitely ranks up there. overall favorite albums are probably human by death, shed by title fight, or fear of music by talking heads. all of kraftwerk’s albums are also pretty close to favorites, especially “the mix”, a re-recording of all their hits where they somehow take their masterpieces and make them even better. i own the mix on tape and listen to it almost every day lol
