    Albums that you havent listened to for ages, but still sound fantastic now

    I was bored, so i had a dig through my old cds and while most of them werent what i was looking for, a couple stood out as i remembered them from all that time ago (about 9 years i think for these). Of course there is older stuff, but these came up first.

    Maybe people could list some others?

    The Verve - Urban Hymnns (Its been a good few years since i played this one, and this deserves some serious volume)

    DJ Shadow - Endtroducing (Quality, moody instrumental film soundtrack stuff with a dark edge and more, brilliant.)

    Faith No More - King for a day, fool for a lifetime - I under rated it when I bought it and after a few listens is actually a great album!

    Eye popping good!
    There was a funny quote here

    one of the greatest albums ever (and the first to be recorded entirely using samples). His new one should be sitting at my mums house for when i get back home next week, i hope i'm not dissapointed.

    Underworld - Beaucoup Fish. Just put it on a couple of minutes before seeing this thread. Very good. Now sounds more chilled than it did at the time though

    and I just had to dig it out...versions of some of these songs on Live At London still sound better, but this is a masterpiece
