Didn't you just start listening to these guys?

Edit: I was on song 3 of What We Lose... from all the hyperbolic love in that thread, still just barely dipping my foot into getting into them.

Holy fuck I used to listen to the shit outta their two propers. Incredibly underrated artists. The voice, lyrics, songwriting, band interplay. I really love these guys.

A few weeks ago. It's enough to know what a perfect album sounds like.

It may not be a popular choice here, but 'Appetite for Destruction' is damn near flawless.

I'm a big Appetite fan, especially compared to the sprawling mess of Use Your Illusion.

My love for the Mynabirds is not hyperbolic. I love them.

It's 2025 and this thread has been 12 years a slave to obscurity. Does everyone still have an unchanged idea of perfection? Did anyone evolve? In 2013 I might have included something from Wilco or Radiohead in consideration, but I can barely stand either of those bands now. Their latter-day sins burned me out.

The present iteration of me would nominate Metamodern Sounds In Country Music as perfect. It's 100% consistent to itself, it has high quality musicianship and songwriting, it's recorded and engineered incredibly well, it's concise--there's no time to get bored because in 35 minutes you're done.

There might be like 6 or 7 Miles Davis albums that fit this.

But I’ll add from jazz land Charles Mingus - The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady

From rock: Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon

What’s most amazing is my favorite thus far in that other thread is Electric Ladyland, which is probably not flawless, but mind blowing in so many ways.
