i figured the thread was inspired by some notion that "rock is dead" (ha, ha, come up with even one good rock album of the 2000s). i put in a list mostly just to say that notion is wrong.

but i was wrong. thread's legit asking for a single disc choice. got it.

If "How to dismantle an atomic bomb" featured "Get on your boots" that would be the perfect album for taking to a desert island, dumping it there then taking the first plane back to civilization.
