This is probably my favorite. Mogwai in general has the best song and album names.

I submit: Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? by Of Montreal.

It seems people really like album titles that are complete sentences.

In that spirit, I offer Mitski's Bury Me At Makeout Creek. It has the added bonus of being a Simpsons reference

To Pimp a Butterfly and Prolonging the Magic are both great calls.

All great :thumbsup:

I actually hate To Pimp a Butterfly as a title. A clumsy, inelegant turn of phrase that reeks of pretentiousness.

I'm not familiar with that one. That's a great title.

A few that stick out for me are:

Bruised Orange - John Prine
Zen Arcade - Husker Du
Frogstomp - Silverchair

and I've always loved "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols"
