cosmosis Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Sorry if someone already posted something like this, but I couldt find it. Anyways, here's mine. 2112 - Rush. Simply the album that made me go out and buy a guitar. II - Led Zep. I think at one time I knew how to play every song from that album. It was also my first dose of Zep and still one of my alltime favorite albums. Revolver - Beatles. Now there's some rhythm guitar lessons. To me, here's where George shines the most when playing with the Beatles. Blizzard Of Ozz - Ozzy. That's when I started to get a bit more technical. Randy is still one of my favorites. A Day At The Races - Queen. Need I say more? Sheer Heart Attack - Queen. Look above. Kiss me - The Cure. Pop rock with extensive guitar mayhem. OK Computer - Radiohead. Analog pedals and tremolo picking are back!! Also they made it cool to sing about aliens again. The Downward Spiral - NIN. Just love the filthy guitar textures and beats made out of different sounds. Loveless - My Bloody Valentine. Melody and harmony made out of noise. Masterpiece. Goo - Sonic Youth. It's like a mad guitar lab. Check it out. Paul's Boutique - Beastie Boys. The whole album is almost entirely built from samples, yet very original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Many of the albums already listed in the first post, also The Doors ? Self Titled & Strange Days, It seems it's an innovative sign of controversy that hadn't really been expressed before. Led Zeppelin I - it's a significant source of experimental hard rock, showcased through blues roots. Black Sabbath ? Master of Reality ; Heavy Metal set grounds with this breakthrough. Pink Floyd ? Ummagumma displayed a strong set of heavy instrumentals Pink Floyd ? The Wall used Conception in a transformed way, many tried to pick up on the idea, but failed to do so with as much brilliance as Waters. Kraftwerk - Autobahn set the way for Techno to come Metallica ? Ride the Lightning Metal Guitar Solo madness at it?s best, Hammet kicks some serious @$$ throughout this album Nine Inch Nails - Pretty Hate Machine Industrialized Industrial, hadn?t really been focused on before in obscurity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 The only one that I can think of right now (way too many to choose from) is: Pearl Jam-Vitalogy= It's one of my favorite guitar rock albums ever! I too felt the need to go out and buy a guitar after listening to it, with great songs such as Not For You, Courdoroy, Nothingman, Tremor Christ, Betterman and the masterful, hugely underrated Immortality!
