My Top Three...

Albums!

Yes i know it has been some time since i last posted (this was pointed out to me by a follower of the Blog on Friday...he will remain un-named...he was a good man), so with very little to rant about (well at least to the world) i felt i wanted to talk about my three favourite music albums.

1.Def Leppard - Hysteria
Big, Bold and 80's, Hysteria is in my opinion the ultimate 1980's Metal experience. Def Leppard may have helped shape the 'Hair Metal' scene but there is nothing embarrising about this album (ok...maybe the Hair). Songs like Pour Some Sugar On Me, Animal and Rocket are big rock anthems whilst tracks like Love Bites and Love & Affection show how well Def Leppard do 'Slow'. This is my favourite album of all time!

2.My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade
MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE ARE NOT EMO. Just to get that out of the way, they do not endorse self harm and emo stuff but are a bloody good rock band (sorry if that offended you...you can talk to my agent). The Black Parade is a modern rock classic which takes influences from Queen, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Smashing Pumpkins and good old 70's rock. Emotion runs high in the classic Welcome To The Black Parade and the album screams of 70's on the rocky Dead. This album shows that rock and roll is not dead and that modern bands are not afraid not tribute there heroes.

3.Keith Urban - Love, Pain & The Whole Crazy Thing
A change in mood here. Keith Urban is apart from being known as the husband of Nicole Kidman is a Damn good Country Singer, Guitarist, Bass Guitarist, Drummer, Banjoist, Ganjoist, Mandolinist and Bouzoukist. LPWCT is one heck of a album, from start to finnish it is musicaly brilliant, written beautifuly and produced beyond belief. Country may be seen as old but Country now is rocking and Keith Urban is perhaps the best song writer at the moment. There are so many good tracks on the album Once In A Lifetime, Shine, I Told You So, Faster Car, Everybody, Got It RIght This Time and my personal Favourite Stupid Boy.
