I often think about stellar albums. The ones where they're really isn't a skip-able track. Off the top of my head, these come to mind: The Beach Boys Pet Sounds, Collective Soul Collective Soul (blue album), Bush 16 Stone, and Green Day Dookie. What are some of your perfect albums?

Going by music genre:

Hip Hop: To Pimp A Butterfly (by Kendrick Lamar), The Forever Story (JID), Madvillainy (MF DOOM), Hell on Earth (Mobb Deep)

Electronic: Selected Ambient Works (Aphex Twin), Exai (Autechre), Duntisbourne Abbots Soulmate Devastation Technique (μ-Ziq)

Black Metal: Filosofem (Burzum), Panzerfaust (Darkthrone), Pure Holocaust (Immortal), Exuvia (The Ruins of Beverast)

Death Metal: Scream Bloody Gore (Death), Realm of Chaos (Bolt Thrower), Under the Sign of the Black Mark (Bathory)

Country: Southbound (Doc Watson), Poor David's Almanack (David Rawlings)

I'm just breaking into country and jazz. If anyone has some classic must-listen albums, I'd be all ears.

It's been almost a year since The Forever Story came out, but it was a classic in my mind from the first second I heard it. I haven't listened to as much hip hop these past few years but that album pulled me right back in.

I'm not the biggest fan of J Cole, but he's discovered and boosted some amazing artists.
