I'm off on holiday tomorrow and will have basically no internet for over a week. So naturally I'm downloading all the media I can think of, just in case of downtime.

Thought it might be fun to solicit some musical suggestions from you lot to help expand my mind. So here we are. What's your ultimate all-time #1 album?

My tastes are pretty eclectic* so feel free to suggest basically anything, and maybe I'll update after holiday and judge what I thought of them all. Or maybe not, you know, that sounds like potentially quite a lot of effort.

Cheers in advance!

* mostly on the alternative / rock side of things but also love various kinds of dance sub-genre on occasion and of course the genre-that-isn't-a-genre-at-all, Eurovision

Hex Enduction Hour by The Fall. I never understood the Fall until I heard this album... Mark E Smith's lyrics and voice range from vicious to eerie. I was sold.

I drunkenly insisted on playing its first song 'The Classical' on repeat on my stag do shouting "it's a grower! You'll get it this time! There's 2 bloody drum kits and the bass is great just listen properly!" (On a tiny Bluetooth speaker)

It is great though. Turn it up loud. If you don't like it the first time, just remember to bloody listen properly lol
