Hi Head-Fi, just curious about the CD's that you can just listen to and go from track 1 to the end without skipping or fastfowarding.

ADD makes it so hard to stay on one album all the way through. One album in particular that I can listen through is DSOTM.

 

[asmox]

i listen through Pain of Salvation's 'The Perfect Element I' almost every day. Venetian Snares' 'Rossz Csillag Alatt Született' is another great piece of work that sucks me in and won't let go.

aside from that, i own many albums that i can easily listen to from start to finish.. too many to list here without it looking like a sad vanity trip.

The new Common "Be" album is one for sure.

 

[The Actual]

I can listen to literally all of my albums straight through, and when listening to stuff I rarely skip tracks. Here's what I have been listening to lately:

Bob Dylan- Blood on the Tracks
Portishead- Dummy
Tricky- Maxinquaye
Junior Boys- Last Exit
Xiu Xiu- Fabulous Muscles
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah- Self-titled!
These Arms Are Snakes- This was Meant to Hurt You EP
These Arms Are Snakes- Oxeneers or The Lion Sleeps When Its Antelope Go Home
Ice Cube- AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted


And for Davey:
Bob Dylan is this crazy folk-rocker who writes some pretty high bez lyrics.
Portishead is trip hop from Bristol. Pretty chiller. If you do not have much experience with the genre, I found it to be a pretty good starting place.
Tricky is more trip hop. I found it a bit less accessible than Portishead, but after a listens (and a couple months later), I am really liking it.
Junior Boys is heckst of chiller electronica. More people need to hear this.
Xiu Xiu has been described as "over the top," and while I am not sure if that is the perfect description for them, it does cover the bases. Another description I heard is "electro indie pop."
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah- Indie pop group from New York. They don't seem too popular on head-fi, but I really like every song on this CD.
These Arms Are Snakes have a much 'harder' sound than anything else I have mentioned. The guitarist in this band is really awesome. All of the stuff he writes is excellent.
I do not listen to much rap, but Ice Cube's solo stuff after NWA is the best of the genre. He may be a sell-out now, but fifteen years ago he was ripping it up with guys like T-Bone and Sir Jinx, and they were unstoppable.

Well.

Wagner's Götterdämmerung, Beethoven's 9th - especially a Furtwängler performance, Mahler's 2nd, Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro, and - of course - Wagner's Parsifal.

Time, rather than interest, seems to be the biggest thing with me. Often, I have a lot going on that would prevent me from listening to a four hour opera straight through. However, when it gets done, it is magical.
