Re: Best and longest album runs
David Bowie has a pretty good 12-13 album run (depending on what you think about Let's Dance)

Not quite. Mirrors and Cultasorus weren't up to their prior standard. Fire was of course great, but in that context it was more of a last gasp.

Re: Best and longest album runs
I like both Let's Dance and the grossly underrated Never Let Me Down, but Tonight is VH3/St Anger level crap so there's that. Otherwise, that's an amazing run indeed. There are a few albums I personally don't like but nothing before Tonight that is universally disliked.
Re: Best and longest album runs
I'll argue with you about Cultosaurus as I have always loved that album, and I think it is highly regarded among BOC fans. Mirrors I have never liked, but whenever I bring that up on Sludge, I get a lot of push back about how great it is.Bono Nettencourt wrote: ↑Wed Jun 05, 2024 8:51 amNot quite.

Regardless, their run from S/T to Spectres was strong, and belongs in this conversation

Billy Joel had a perfect run. Even his worst release, An Innocent Man, was pretty good.

wut
River of Dreams was a one-song record, and it wasnt a partlicularly good one. The Step Brothers bit about his 80s stuff not measuring up to the 80s was pretty spot-on.

Creed had a good run, depending on what you think about my sacrifice
Skrillex is untouchable
No doubt was solid in the 90s
Marcy playground needs to be in the running

Who can resist a song about "having sex in a Porsche" as Halford said at one 86 show?

Muscle of Love was crap, and School's Out is one classic song surrounded by filler.

Rush - Fly By Night through Moving Pictures. I love everything after MP, but that's largely their golden era.

Ridiculous. They were on the verge of getting dropped after Caress of Steel. From 2112 to MP, yes.

Yeah, they were, but a lot of fans now consider FBN and Caress... as part of that golden era. At least, I do, anyway.Bono Nettencourt wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2024 9:15 amRidiculous. They were on the verge of getting dropped after Caress of Steel. From 2112 to MP, yes.
