Bands with One Album That is Much Better Than the Others

Post by LoathedVermin72 »

Like, head-and-shoulders above all their other releases.

-Electric Wizard - Dopethrone
-High on Fire - Blessed Black Wings
-The Wedding Present - Seamonsters
-The Stooges - Raw Power
-At the Drive-In - Relationship of Command
-Rob Zombie - Hellbilly Deluxe
-White Zombie - Astro-Creep: 2000
-Hella - There's No 666 in Outerspace

I'm sure there are probably a lot more that aren't coming to mind right now...

This is where I get to be controversial and post that Arcade Fire's Funeral fits the bill.

Could a one disc Illusions touch Appetite, Lament?

I don't think so, but I know a lot of people would disagree with me. I think the best of the material on Illusion is all too grand and bloated to fit onto one disc. It needs to be spread across two.

Swervedriver's Mezcal Head is one of my favourite records of all time but I don't think anything else they've done is nearly as good.
