The Police - Synchronicity

Beatles - Abbey Road

oooooh that's a really bold statement there, mister.

Van Halen's 1984.

And don't anybody try telling me that abomination after Dave left was still the same group.

Just out of curiosity, what is considered the superior Beatles record?

The general consensus used to be Sgt. Pepper, but it has changed in recent years to Revolver. I personally feel that Rubber Soul and A Hard Days Night are their best.

The Smashing Pumpkins "Machina: The Machines of God"

Soundgarden "Down on the Upside"

Seriously? I'm just surprised that's all...

My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Nirvana - In Utero
Joy Division - Closer
The Dismemberment Plan - Change
Nick Drake - Pink Moon
The Stooges - Raw Power
Beat Happening - You Turn Me On
Big Star - Third/Sister Lovers
Chavez - Ride The Fader (they did break up, right?)
Unwound - Leaves Turn Inside You
Antietam - Rope-A-Dope
Chocolate U.S.A. - Smoke Machine
Gastr del Sol - Camoufleur
The Inbreds - Winning Hearts
Nation of Ulysses - Plays Pretty for Baby
The Outsiders - CQ
Zumpano - Goin' Through Changes
Refused - The Shape Of Punk To Come
The Afghan Whigs - 1965

Pixies - Trompe Le Monde

Machina II aside, there was a greatest hits album...

Greatest Hits album don't really count.

Yes, I think "Machina" was an amazing album.

I'll second Abbey Road.

Also, Back for the Attack by Dokken (Though they broke up after a live album, and has reformed and broke up again since) One of my favorite albums.

Great list, mordecai. Tons of obvious choices that I didn't think of.

Although I'd argue Emergcency & I is quite a bit stronger than Change, but when a guy likes the Dismemberment Plan, there is no wrong choice.

At The Drive In- Relationship of Command

Dr. Feelgood by Motley Crue 1989

Queen's "Made in Heaven" is an AWESOME album, and arguably their most emotional album. I think it could be considered their best. It doesn't have the same all-around substance as "A Night at the Opera" or "News of the World" but it's pretty damn good.

Actually INNUENDO would be their last album IMO...and their best. Made in Heaven is good, but is really a "wrap up" of bits and pieces. Innuendo is truly, their best of all time.

The Amazing Crowns - Royal
Stray Cats - Choo Choo Hot Fish

but that wasn't thier last studio album.

anyway, I think Teslas last studio album "Bust A Nut" was the best, even tho it didn't have any radio hits because it came out post-grunge.

KIX's "Show Business" I think is thier best too.

Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Sublime yet, so I get to!

Weezer - Pinkerton
