Monday Is For Music

Update II:It seems that someone has taken the entire discussion on Plastic and tallied everybodys selections, ranked them and then linked them to Amazon, iTunes, some russion MP3 Site, and Google.

It's pretty awesome, I suggest checking it out.

Update I: I thought this would make a good topic for discussion on Plastic so I submitted it and they posted it today. It created a wee bit of a...dialogue. Lots of interesting stuff if you are looking for new (or old) music.

I have been going through my music lately trying to determine what, of the music I've downloaded, is good and what is crap. Whilst I was doing that I, of course, decided to download more music, thus continuing the cycle of music consumption. This time however I was at a loss of what to download. and then as if struck my the wiffle ball bat of God I thought, "Greatest Hits". Which greatest hits you ask? I dunno. I just threw that into the search string of my handy P2P client started downloading anything that came up, and then went to see Kung Fo Hustle, as you should. Searching for music is something like trawling for fish, you cast a wide net and see what comes in.

After the movie me and Pacey sat down and started discussing perfect albums. Albums that we felt contained all great songs, as in every track was very, very good and none were mediocre. Since I tend not to listen to entire albums (I tend to grab songs I like and, throwing them together, play all of them on random) this was a wee bit hard for me. Nonetheless, here is a brief list that Pacey and I came up with.

Sinead O'Connor - Lion and the Cobra
Streets - Original Pirate Material
Metrics - Old World Underground
Arcade f\Fire - Funeral
Sleater-Kinney - One Beat

Okay Umlaut-ians, your turn. What are your Perfect albums
