Shit. I picked PURPLE, but thinking about it, I think SUPERUNKNOWN is slightly better.

These polls are fun, WARF. It's really cool to see people's musical tops.

Yup. In fact, I'd put that above anything. I think that is a brilliant piece of work. How many bands can re-invent themselves completely, still be completely artistic (if not moreso) yet still more commercial, heart-wrenching and entirely representative of their songwriting career in one stellar disc? That is easily the best Unplugged of them all...partly because it's a straight performance with no multiple takes of any song, etc. It's just from the heart and magnificent.

I'm still waiting for this to come out on a DVD. It's among their best performances and in DTS 5.1, it would amazing. It would sit well on my shelf right next to my 5.1 ALICE IN CHAINS UNPLUGGED DVD.

I voted "other" for Green Day's Dookie. I always did think that this particular album was a swing into a different direction that help set the stage for a re-visit to late 70's early 80's punk. Totally underrated.

Good call, BT. DOOKIE is a good album. WELCOME TO PARADISE still has one of the most intense middle-jam parts in rock history.

totally. In a sad twist of irony, I find Green Day of today a mere shadow of themselves, creatively. Its radio friendly and im just not radios friend. lol Killers were good until they were over-exposed as well.

check out the bootleg thread titled vids galore for a few short concert clips of Dave and Ray Luzier.

I agree 100% about GREEN DAY. A lot of people thought their last album was amazing...but I thought it was kind of typical of the modern sound...just not interesting. DOOKIE was perfect...commercial enough but still with a real cutting-edge, garage-sounding vibe. Now, it's just not the same. That is their best album, although the two after that were also quite good.

I think it's a typical record label/producer pressure to keep up image and marketability. Unfortunatley, the music is the first to go the way of the radio. Offspring is another great example. Creative, yes. But creative for the wrong reason. I suppose everyone gets into it to become rich, but I think Id really be the guy that wont play what i dont believe in. I dont think they follow that train of thought. That's why Nirvana was so great.

Went with NIN. Fantastic album plus my first date with my wife was on that tour.

Yup. NIRVANA was incredible. When they felt like making an album that just seemed more commercial, they did it. Then, they followed it up with an album that was almost more uncommercial than even BLEACH.

NIRVANA are my favorite band next to VH, IGGY and a couple of others.

Aren't those dudes all PHD's? This friend of a friend in North Carolina won some radio cuntest where The Offspring would come and pick you up in their limo, take you to their show, you get to hang with 'em...yadda yadda. He told us he was all fired up about it, being a big fan and all. So on the way to the show, he busts out a joint and all hell broke loose. They (The Offspring) flippedthefuckout....like "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?" I suggested maybe it was liability cuntcerns or whatever, and the dude was like, "naw man, they weren't down with the krypto...I thought they were gonna have me arrested."

Hey-yay-yay...come out and play!
:rolleyes:

Voodoo Lounge - until just recently, I thought it was going to be the last great Stones record, but A Bigger Bang turned out even better.
