So...What Album Did You Just Listen To?

There've been some music threads, but all devoted to specific genres. I figured it was time for one massive album thread for the ages. (No, kids, the album is not dead.)

Among my recent listens:

Gnarls Barkley: The Odd Couple I'm not as big on it as I was about St. Elsewhere, but it's still good. The Odd Couple doesn't seem to have as much diversity of sound or as many tracks that stay in your head for days following. (Who can still sing "Crazy"? Anyone? Bueller?)

Lauryn Hill: MTV Unplugged No. 2.0 I've been a Lauryn Hill fan since I first listened to The Fugees. This two-disc album (recorded in 2001) shares little with her Fugees work (or even that heard on The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill), but the stripped-down, honest performance carries even through the numerous lengthy interludes.

Emily Jane White: Dark Undercoat One of my later discoveries while still a DJ at WUSC-FM, it's proof that just because something is common (female singer-songwriter) doesn't mean it can't be good. The album is a little darker than my usual listening, but not too dark that I can't put it on during a roadtrip.

Common: Like Water for Chocolate Common has always been one of the best lyricists in hip-hop, something that the mainstream only started to notice with this album. Largely devoid of guest emcees, Common's lyrics shine alongside some of the decade's best production. Classic.

Alchemist: 1st Infantry Alchemist was another discovery of mine at WUSC, back when "Hold You Down" was in our rotation (and on vinyl to boot!) my freshman year. The album is gritty, both in production and lyrics (the latter of which trend toward the D-Block roster). It was the unofficial soundtrack to the summer of 2005 for me, tempered by the need to keep the volume down when I was working at camp. (1st Infantry is not for the kiddies.)

What have you listened to lately?

Minutes to Midnight- Linkin Park- almost hated the culmination of their recent songs and I love Linkin Park's old songs
Viva la Vida- Coldplay- brilliant

I have an iPod. So I don't listen to albums anymore. Just songs.

Actually, I lied (a little).
I buy albums at the great great House of Guitars and rip music from them.
I am currently ripping from the Vans Warped Tour 2003 album.
After that I have Aural Playground (a techno compilation album. What I usually go to the HOG to grab). Logic Trance 2. ATP 3.0 and Days Like These - Inventure.

Josh Woodward- The Simple Life

He is an independent artists that I downloaded from Jamendo.com The place has some decent music, though alot that I'm not too fond of as well.

I've also been often listening to Rush's Snakes and Arrows and Audioslave's Revelations.

Black Holes and Revelations - Muse

I'll probably listen to three or four albums (at least) during the IRI round-trip.
