Every single one, if I don't like all the songs then forget it.

Most of the albums I own, actually. If it's not a complete album, I just rip the good tracks and give away or sell the CD. Considering all the music I've owned over the years, I don't have enough storage space for filler. I must have hundreds of albums that I can listen to without skipping tracks, so it would be pretty daunting to try and list them all here.

Obvious stuff would be "concept" albums (Dark Side, The Wall, Scenes From a Memory, Operation: Mindcrime, etc), concerts, musicals, and scores as they're complete experiences. Similar to your list, I find that most of my complete albums are older stuff, often from the classic rock and metal genres, and a lot of early 80s "alternative" rock. As the music industry has (d)evolved, it seems more and more difficult to find solid albums that rock from start to finish. Filler pisses me off.

Most of the albums I own.

wish I could say "most of the albums that I own"...

see, even artists whose stuff I avidly collect are capable [at times] of doing one or two songs that I don't really care for..

Prince, for example...His 1996 album Chaos And Disorder. I love it. Great album. Great songs.

Except...for track 5 -- Right the Wrong.

I hate this song. Can't stand it.

Does that lessen my opinion of this album as a whole? Nope.

Will I not play the album straight through because of the speed bump known as track 5? Nope.

When I read the thread title, I thought Rypro meant albums that demanded [musically, lyrically, spiritually & whatnot] that you listen to them from start to finish...

my examples:

All of them. I've never bought a cd for one or two tracks.

Parachutes - Coldplay
A Rush of Blood to the Head - Coldplay
Sha Sha - Ben Kweller
Lost and Gone Forever - Guster
Dark Side of the Moon - Pink Floyd
Siamese Dream- Smashing Pumpkins
Rockin' the Suburbs - Ben Folds
Before These Crowded Streets - Dave Matthews Band
Under the Table and Dreaming - Dave Matthews Band
40oz to Freedom - Sublime
Happiness... - Our Lady Peace
Spiritual Machines - Our Lady Peace
Vs - Pearl Jam
( ) - Sigur Ros

Every Radiohead Album

Hendrix- Greatest Hits (If that actually counts)
The Doors- Greatest Hits
Metallica- Kill em All, Ride, Master, And Justice
Nirvana- In Utero
Meshuggah- Chaospere
Opeth- Morningrise, Damnation
Floyd- Echoes
Andrew WK- I Get Wet

Nas - Illmatic

And a bunch more that I can't think of off the top of my head.

• Marillion--Misplaced Childhood
• Floyd---Animals
• Rick Wakeman--Journey To The Center Of The Earth
• Jeff Waynes Musical Version Of... War of the Worlds
• Frank Zappa--Joe's Garage and Shiek YerBouti
• Emerson Lake and Palmer--Brain Salad Surgery
• Jethro Tull--Aqualung

...and tons of others...well...all of them. all 2,591.

I thought it meant "should" listen to all the way through....

Rush - Moving Pictures
KISS - Double Platinum (even though GH packages really shouldn't count)
Guns and Roses - Appetite for Destruction
Black Sabbath - s/t
Dio - Holy Diver
The Who - Who's Next
Beatles - Abbey Road

[old man voice]Back in my day, we had to listen to albums all the way through. And we were happy for the privilege...[/old man voice]

Like many have said, lots of them. One that I'll mention because it's not an album most people would think I would like is the eponymous Warren Zevon album - the one with "Frank and Jesse James" and Mohammed's Radio" starting off each side.

ditto. Not only because I liked (at least one) song before I bought it, but also because everytime I listen to any kind of music, it grows in me.

I agree with that. Zevon is a huge fav of mine. I could listen to the song, Lawyers, Guns and Money...all day long.

Here's my list in no particular order:

Tool-Lateralus
Tool-Aenima
Rage Against the Machine
A Perfect Circle-Mer De Noms
Pearl Jam-Ten
Metallica-And Justice for All
Pink Floyd-Wish you were here
Pink Floyd-Echoes
Smashing Pumkins-Siamese Dream
Nirvana-Nevermind
Soundgarden-Superunknown
Faith No More-The Real Thing
Radiohead-The Bends

I can listen to all these albums from beginning to end without skipping any songs.

Too many to list, but I'll put down a few off the top of my head.

Pearl Jam- Ten and Vs. All the other albums have at least one song I always skip

Radiohead- The Bends, OK Computer, Hail to the Theif.

DMB- pretty much every album.

The Who- Who's Next

Soundgarden- Superunknown

Nirvana- Nevermind and In Utero

Alice in Chains- Facelift, Dirt, Jar of Flies and Sap (the last two are EPs though).

Stone Temple Pilots- every album

Deftones- Adrenaline and the new self titled one.

Led Zeppelin- III

That's enough for now.

ditto. with the exception of "presence" by led zeppelin.

Van Morrison-Moondance
Van Morrison-Astral Weeks
Bruce Springsteen-The River
The Clash-London Calling
The Replacements-Let it Be
REM-Document

I can not only listen to Crosby Stills & Nash's "Couch Album" all of the way through easily but on replay for hours. I often play it over and over on long drives or in the office.

practically none, since I don't have many albums. Though I can't complain about Nirvana's MTV Unplugged. How about them apples?

I took the thread to mean albums that demand you listen to them all the way through. i.e. albums you don't put in when you are going on a short car ride to work, knowing you won't be able to listen to it all the way through.

Dream Theater - Metropolis part 2 - Scenes from a Memory
Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime

All of the poor old lu albums
dc talk - Jesus Freak
Common Children - Delicate Fade
Radiohead - Kid A/OK Computer
Rich Mullins - A Litergy, A Legacy, and A Ragamuffin Band

There are some more but I can't think of them right now...

Notorious BIG - Ready to Die
Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt
Nas - Illmatic
Wu Tang Clan - Enter the 36 Chambers
Masta Ace - Disposable Arts
Soul Supreme - The Saturday Night Agenda
Zion I - Mind over Matter
Raphael Saadiq - Instant Vintage
Boyz 2 Men - II
