Great albums

Postby grumpygirl » Wed Aug 15, 2007 10:23 am

Don't know if this one has been done before or not. I am looking for other peoples opinions on what they think are the best all around albums from the new wave era. When I say great album I mean an album that you personally think every song is great. I will start with a few that I love every song on the album!

New Order - Low Life
Love and Rockets - Earth Sun and Moon
Depeche Mode - Black Celebration

Hope to hear some good ones!

Great albums should be great from first track to last - no filler
I think of all the choices listed Black Celebration is the only one that fits this definition this and Roxy Music's Avalon.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. One persons filler is anothers great tracks top to bottom.
