What I mean is, let’s say you’re stranded on a desert island, and you can only bring four albums with you. Which ones are you bringing? Mine are:
**Yes - Close to the Edge**
**Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven**
**Radiohead - In Rainbows**
**mewithoutYou - [Untitled]**
This list changes all the time, but this is where it stands as of 9/23/2026 (MM/DD/YYYY).
Now your turn!

AWESOME thread idea! _Extremely_ difficult choice but I landed on these 4:
1. RAM - Daft Punk
2. Voodoo - D’Angelo
3. Off The Wall - MJ
4. Sunday @ the Village Vanguard - Bill Evans
A bit bummed there’s not a more straight ahead jazz album on here, but I couldn’t swap out any of these 4. Runner ups that would kinda satisfy that category for me would be Night Dreamer by Wayne Shorter (which snuck its way into the corner lol), or something by Art Blakey.

At The Drive-In - Relationship of Command
HIM - Razorblade Romance
Marilyn Manson - Antichrist Superstar (or NIN - Pretty Hate Machine.. it’s a toss up between the two)
The Weeknd - Beauty Behind the Madness
If I could sneak a fifth it would probably be Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
