Muse live.......you just kind of have to give yourself over to the pomp.  i've watched.  it's essentially rock broadway.  i know this makes me sound pompous but there's a certain suspenion of belief to Muse in concert.

 

it's like seeing phantom of the opera live.  flash and pomp.  and if you can't ease yourself in......you are gonna hate it.

 

just my 2 cents.

It helps if you love the music inside out. I didn't, and still don't.

Well if the pomp of the stage theatrics is not your style, and you don't love the music, the show is gonna be insufferable.

Since i've been obsessed and bored today.

 

Jackson Browne

 

1. The Pretender

2. Hold Out

3. For Everyman

4. Late For the Sky

5. Running On Empty

6. The Naked Ride Home

7. Standing In The Breach

8. Jackson Browne

9. Lawyers In Love

10. I'm Alive

11. Downhill From Everywhere

12. Lives in The Balance

13. Looking East

14. Time The Conqueror

15. World In Motion

 

I don't think he ever made a bad album Except for World In Motion.  Some albums may not be as strong but there's gems in every album.  and he's had quite the string of albums latly meaning from 2002 to now.

 

One of the bygone sing/songwriters who is still showing he never lost his talent to break your heart.

Let me rank In Flames again, I've had a bizarre time finding myself enthralled by everything:

 

1. Come Clarity 

2. Whoracle

3. Reroute To Remain 

4. Siren Charms

5. The Jester Race

6. Colony

7. Clayman

8. Battles

9. Soundtrack To Your Escape

10. Sounds Of A Playground Fading

11. I, The Mask

12. Foregone

13. A Sense Of Purpose

14. The Lunar Strain

 

Unlike Maiden or Priest, I have no issues really with any of these albums. And I have listed their albums before in a very different order.

 

It's like my faves rotate.

I'm game for Maiden. The top 3 are untouchable for me but 4-9 are likely to shuffle depending on how I'm feeling.

 

Seventh Son

Brave New World

Powerslave

 

Somewhere In Time

A Matter of Life and Death

Number of the Beast

Senjutsu

Piece of Mind

Book of Souls

 

Things start to feel a little meh here but there are some absolute gems within

 

Dance of Death

Iron Maiden

Killers

X Factor

 

These have very few redeeming qualities

 

The Final Frontier - they just sound tired 

Fear of the Dark

No Prayer for the Dying

Virtual XI

I absolutely adore TFF and No Prayer. In fact I'd put No Prayer in, or near, my top five!

 

And BNW is quite low if I'm honest. 

 

Otherwise, hard to fault! SIT used to be my number one Maiden album, but I personally feel that Powerslave and Seventh Son are it's equal. And then I listen to their first four albums, and feel the same.

 

Just love Maiden.

2. Piece of Mind

3. Number of the Beast

4. Seventh Son of A Seventh Son

5. Brave New World

6. A Matter of Life And Death

This order has been pretty set for me.

 

Differences for me and a lot of folk  i think are.

 

1. I think senjutsu's fantastic

2. Power is kinda over praised.  i find it a bit filler.

Could do an era/style breakdown? If he's super diverse, that could work

Judas Priest

 

1. Killing Machine

2. Screaming for Vengeance

3. Stained Class

4. Firepower

5. Painkiller

6 Sin After Sin

7 Angel of Retribution

8. British Steel

9  Roca Rolla

10.  Invincible Shield

11. Sad Wings of Destiny

 

then we get down to like the final bunch which to me  is a mixed bag from eh to god Priest what happened?

 

12. Turbo

13. Defenders of the Faith

14  Point of Entry

15  Redeemer Of Souls

16. Jugulator

17. Demolition

18. Ram It Down

19. Nostradamus

 

I think JP is a great band but i think after 82 it really is a grab bag of mid and awful UNTIL angel of Retribution. then a breif gap.  THEN the last 2 have been great.

 

The only big argument i get into is i don't really like Defenders of the Faith like....at all.  i don't really like turbo much either.  those 2 make a double album shit Sandwich.

 

Also they are some that say KK and Glenn make up JP no band without them.  I say they were great but they WERE on a lot of those shit sandwiches, lol.......so shut up.

The new album keeps on getting better for me. And it does what all great follow ups do, it makes the album before even better.

 

I think FP is better overall, I just like some of the more delicate moments more. But my god, what a way to enter your fiftieth year as album artists!

I don't have that many bands/artists where I am familiar with every album that they have released.  This would be for bands that have released at least 5 or more studio albums.

 

There's usually a cutoff point and after that I don't listen to the band all that much.
