"I'll say he is... more like off the planet"

[thegremlin_1999]

Yes. sorry.. i was rushing it in a lecture... VERYYYY bored at uni:-)

[Lithium05]

It's true he hasn't been very sensible naming his albums,

Off The Wall, Thriller, Bad, Dangerous, History etc you could make a joke about any of them in relation to his weird life. Nonetheless it is still a groundbreaking and genius album.

I was also forgetting Ramones debut album, Forever Changes by Love and Odessey and Oracle by The Zombies - theres too many I love to choose!!!.

[bartycrouch]

Crumbs on a stick, I found it hard!

I will go with the following, although I am still not entirely convinced.

Atreyu - Lead Sails, Paper Anchor

Silversun Pickups - Carnavas

Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machine

Frank Turner - Love, Ire and Song

Weezer - Green
