I often think about stellar albums. The ones where they’re really isn’t a skip-able track. Off the top of my head, these come to mind: The Beach Boys Pet Sounds, Collective Soul Collective Soul (blue album), Bush 16 Stone, and Green Day Dookie. What are some of your perfect albums?

    Radiohead’s Kid A has no filler tracks. Anyone who thinks Treefingers is filler is wrong

      It’s odd but Kid A didn’t click with me until after I’d heard Amnesiac. I think the follow-up album might’ve worked as a kind of gateway into a more electronic sound.

      I listened through Amnesiac maybe half a dozen times before I was curious and tried Kid A again, and it was like I was hearing a completely different album. It’s funny to have my opinion of an album change so much by listening to something else entirely.
