Soloman Tump Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 So I was thinking... amazing album titles. Names that fit the music perfectly, are very clever, are an in-joke for fans or just plain original and awesome. Any genre. GO! I will start with:- Venetian Snares - printf("shiver in eternal darkness/n"); If it had been simply Shiver in Eternal Darkness then it would sum up the music beautifully; dark and cold and menacing, foreboding doom and all that shit. Brilliant. But the fact that Snares wraps it up in a bit of C coding adds a level of geekery which reflects the computational nature of his music. Probably my favourite album title of his.

Root5 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I've always loved the title "Body Riddle" by Clark. Also "Another Side of Bob Dylan" and "Blood on the Tracks" by Bob Dylan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuatxuk Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Darkthrone's oft-cited unholy trilogy: A Blaze in the Northern Sky Under a Funeral Moon Transilvanian Hunger I think it's important the musical content lives up to the titles, so with that in mind: Isaac Hayes - Hot Buttered Soul, Black Moses John Coltrane - A Love Supreme Pink Floyd - The Piper at the Gates of Dawn Gold Panda - Half of Where You Live Jimi Hendrix - Axis Bold As Love R.E.M. - Murmur (nice disclaimer eh?) Sonice Youth - Daydream Nation Fela Kuti - Expensive ShitScientist - Scientist Rids the World of the Evil Curse of the Vampires* *Classic dub remix titles take the fucking cake - they would often have ridiculously creative titles completely unrelated to the reggae track they were making a dub version out of, "Flash Gordon Meets Luke Skywalker" is my favorite. Or something like this: ...i care because you do /thread that is a good one Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet hell yeah, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back is up there too Frank Zappa is a fucking goldmine for this shit. I like how his debut was Freak Out! Butthole Surfers are up there too: Psychic... Powerless...
