Regardless of whether or not you actually like the music, which title for an album is your favourite?
Sounds of Perseverance
Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness - I’ve been saying the phrase ever since. Example:
Friend : “I got demoted to silver on League”
Me: “Damn, that’s infinite sadness”
I’ve always liked that Fiona Apple named an album, “When the pawn hits the conflicts he thinks like a king What he knows throws the blows when he goes to the fight And he’ll win the whole thing 'fore he enters the ring There’s no body to batter when your mind is your might So when you go solo, you hold your own hand And remember that depth is the greatest of heights And if you know where you stand, then you know where to land And if you fall it won’t matter, cuz you’ll know that you’re right.”
It’s commonly referred to as simply, “When the pawn”.
The REM album Fables of the Reconstruction was intended to be printed in a circle around the record to make it ambiguous:
Fables of the Reconstruction /
Reconstruction of the FablesThe record company fucked it up
For some reason these two by Strapping Young Lad fell into my head:
- For Those Aboot To Rock
- Heavy As A Really Heavy Thing
And Out Come the Wolves by Rancid or Today’s Empire, Tomorrow’s Ashes by Propagandhi.
Lounge Against the Machine by Richard Cheese deserves an honourable mention.
From all the way in the back
Of the food stamp line
And straight outta motherfucking rehab!
It’s the good, the bad
And the Leftöver Crack!
What’s leftover crack?
Love that one too.
Equally Cursed and Blessed by Catatonia.
Lullabies for the Dormant Mind from The Agonist is the first one that comes to mind. Fantastic album, and the title and album art are both just on point.
The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars
The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust - Saul Williams
I forgot who made it because it’s not the type of music I listen to but there’s an album called “Tentacle Induced Intestinal Displacement”. I just like how specifically absurd it is and It’s album art is equally as extreme. Assuming it hasn’t been removed, it was on Spotifiy when I found it, if you are curious about it for some reason.
Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik by Outkast and Return to Cookie Mountain by TV on the Radio.
Millions of Dead Cops, The War on Errorism, Deloused in the Comatorium
Circusized Peanuts by Warlock Pinchers
