    NIИ - The Downward Spiral is the common choice, but The Fragile is a much more complete album. However, my personal favorite is Year Zero.

      I would say Pretty Hate Machine is probably the best known. My favorite is Broken. You are probably correct about Downward Spiral being the consensus among the fan base as a whole. What I really like about NIN is that I enjoy all of their albums. Many other bands I like have some that I avoid. Probably my least favorite NIN album is Fixed and it’s still pretty listenable.

    Ween - Quebec
    Favorite band is very tough. It’s probably Ween, and Quebec slightly over The Mollusk for me

      Mmm, my order of favorite Ween albums would be Chocolate and Cheese, Quebec, White Pepper.

      But Mollusk has some bangers on it too (Buckingham Green).

      Why yes, yes I am down with the brown.

    Nonagon Infinity - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Though their other 25 albums are awesome too.

    I am also partial to their album PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: an Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation. Probably my favorite metal album, and they aren’t even a pure metal band.

      I think my personal favorite is Omnium Gatherum, but it has some ups and downs. Nonagon Infinity is pretty much flawless from top to bottom (and back to top)

    Jimi Hendrix Experience’s Electric Ladyland.
    It’s the quintessential experimental album: with songs spacing through many different genres, two 10+ minutes long jams, recurring themes and the best cover ever to be performed which is All Along the Watchtower (originally from Bob Dylan)

    Stadium arcadium by the chili peppers.

    Probably one of the greatest single compilations of music ever put together by humanity.

      Even most of the songs that didn’t come out as singles are absolute bangers: Wet Sand (my personal favourite), Charlie, Hard to Concentrate and Slow Cheetah could easily overshadow many other singles from the following albums

      I was really glad to see this. Stadium Arcadium was my first thought and it is just packed with such greatness. I can listen to it start to finish and never be bored or want to skip any of it.

    Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell

    Such a refined masterpiece that few can touch. Mob rules and Dehumanizer are close seconds, but miss the sheer presence that Heaven and Hell beholds.

    To me at least, Heaven and Hell is immersive and profound to an extent, that their other albums cannot compare. It holds a very special place in my heart.

    Dio - The last in line.

    Not quite head and shoulders above his other albums, but lands the most hits for me. I love every track on this album, and none are a “miss”. I love (almost) every other Dio album, but each has at least one song that doesn’t resonate with me.

    Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms

    Cliche choice, but extremely enjoyable to listen and relax to. If you listen more closely, it becomes very immersive as each song has a clear story and a moral. Though some tracks are slower paced and longer, I don’t find a single one boring, which I sometimes do on other Dire Straits albums.
