McLuskey Do Dallas and Cell Scape and Rated R are all respectable also rans behind This Is It. I wish I could see what people love about Pound For Pound because the Trux is one of my favorite bands ever but it's like my least favorite album of their latter period, sorry bros that's just how I feel.

What's "rock"? Is MIA "rock"? Is Kanye "rock"? If not, why not (other than race/gender/nationality)?

How about Bob Dylan (and I'll take Love and Theft over o.nate's Modern Times)? If not, why not?

Are guitars required? Why? Is a particular tone or way of playing guitars required? You sure? Is syncopation allowed? You sure?

It's about time someone on ILM asked these questions.

This thread was a demonstration of Ilm's terribleness when it was an embryo in the even worse Strokes v Spoon poll

i like this thread because everyone is being coy and not mentioning "boxer"

a ghost is born is a contender too. only thinking now of albums which would unambiguously be considered "rock", which i agree is a boring where to think about stuff.

I would accept this as possibly the best album of the 2000s (it's at least in my top five), but it don't much rock.

Mr. Bojangus (Old Lunch), Monday, 15 December 2014 05:18 (nine years ago) link

P.S. This is rock for those who are confused about rock.

How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb by the rock group U2

Simply The Bessed! (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 17 December 2014 16:23 (nine years ago) link

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.
