I'm going to listen to the top 3 upvoted albums and give you my honest unfiltered thoughts.

Please explain what makes the album special to you. For context, lyrics are very important to me, so I gravitate to music with good storytelling.

Alright! Results are in. I'll be listening to:

  • Lateralus - Tool
  • To Pimp a Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar
  • Pink Moon - Nick Drake
  • Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness - The Smashing Pumpkins

(I know I said 3, but I couldn't resist!)

Trouble Will Find Me by The National

Probably my favorite album of all time. It's a very down tempo album with a lot of introspection and lyrics I really connected with the first time I listened to it.

This album's tour was one of the best live performances I've seen. As someone who really connects with their lyrics but never thought of them as powerhouse performers or anything, I was really blown away

I wish I could've gone! I only found them after that tour was over sadly.
