Probably not. I dont rank things though. It holds a special place in my heartbroken 22 year old's heart self. Know what I mean?

Me too, team. I wouldn't rank it best from the last 15 years. But it's a lovely record that I adore spinning frequently.

Lost in the Dream
Both Bon Iver

Yeah I like it as well. Not in my top 50 of the last 15 years, but still enjoy it

Also, like Strat, I don't like ranking things

yadda yadda, when he first wrote those songs is when my life took a nasty turn straight down. So they hit pretty hard and really helped young strat out.

Still think the album is lovely.

Also, BRMC Howl.

I originally started this thread because this album is making me question that choice:

I've given this quite some thought these past few days and I think my choice is this one:

zeb · Post by **zeb** » Wed June 10, 2015 4:41 am

Songs For The Deaf or The Woods.

Other contenders:
* Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
* Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
* Arcade Fire - Funeral
* Sigur Ros - ( )
* Radiohead - In Rainbows
* Titus Andronicus - The Monitor
* Sonic Youth - Murray Street
* Beck - Sea Chance
* Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
* Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights

You've got great taste Matt (and zeb) - that's probably my top five in bold right there

(If I could bold an image I would probably bold Kid A, but In Rainbows is a fine stand-in)

I like the cut of your jib.

digster · Post by **digster** » Wed June 10, 2015 2:39 pm

Gotta go with The Woods. It's a masterpiece.

Close runner-ups...

Roots and Crowns - Califone
The Animal Years - Josh Ritter
Boxer - The National
Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus - Nick Cave
Impossible Dream - Patty Griffin

and it's a compilation of artists, almost all of it released before the last 15 years, but Fire in my Bones is one of my most-listened to albums in recent years.

Gods' Die · Post by **Gods' Die** » Wed June 10, 2015 3:10 pm

Mine's got to be In Rainbows.

Some damn fine records in here.

Agree with Wilco (YHF), Arcade Fire (Funeral), Bon Iver (For Emma), Kanye (MBDTF), Lanegan (Bubblegum), Radiohead (KA), several of the National, QotSA.

Some others that haven't been mentioned that are up there for me:

Drive-by Truckers: Southern Rock Opera
Gorillaz: Demon Days
TV on the Radio: Return to Cookie Mountain
Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds: Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus
Common: Be
White Stripes: White Blood Cells
Kendrick Lamar: Good Kid M.A.A.D. City
LCD Soundsystem: This is Happening or Sound of Silver
Ryan Adams & the Cardinals: Cold Roses
