You could take all 3 audioslave records and produce a pretty solid single album worth your time

Agreed, though selections from the third album would be scant.

The last U2 album was pretty good. It's gotten much more play than PJ's last one.

I just finished listening to that about 15 minutes ago. It's great -- "Joey Ramone" and "Song For Someone" are the only duds for me.

Whatever tracks are between California and Volcano are awful and have been deleted. The rest are fine.

That would be "Song For Someone" and "Iris" -- I really like the latter.

I also think the "Invisible" song they did for the Super Bowl (and which appears as a hidden track on the "Songs of Innocence" bonus disc) is great.

That bonus disc is pretty good too. :thumbsup:

Wow, I think "Invisible" is the manifestation of everything I hate about U2.

I'm Gonna Crawl is one of the best songs in the entire Led Zeppelin catalog.

I just got the 3CD "Coda" reissue this week -- convenient, as it was the last Zeppelin album I didn't own, and after padding the other reissues with nothing but stupid remixes in the way of bonus material, this ended up being the one where they decided to dump all their non-album singles ("Hey Hey What Can I Do," "Traveling Riverside Blues," etc.)

I really like the song "Darlene."

Baby Come On Home is pretty great.

I don't love Kendrick Lamar, and think GKMC and TPAB are both largely mediocre albums with a few fantastic songs. There's some interesting thematic exploration going on, but I can't help but feel that its depth is being overstated by a lot of people. Regardless, the music itself often flirts with tedium, and I sometimes find the way he uses his voice to be obnoxious to the point of being unlistenable ("For Free?", "u", "Momma").

His voice is obnoxious on "For Free" -- what the hell is up with that?

I like rock music. Isn't that pretty unpopular nowadays? Didn't Pete Townshend say rock is dead? Did it finally happen?
