I feel like discovering some new + amazing metal/music, so post your 5 current favourite albums. They don't have to be metal, just whatever.

Mine are:
La Dispute - Somewhere Between The River...
The Mars Volta - Octahedron
The Paper Chase - Someday This Could All Be Yours
Keith Jarrett Trio - Standards Vol 1/Changes
Grammatics - Grammatics

Paramore - Riot!
Silverchair - Neon Ballroom
Foo Fighters - In Your Honour
The Killers - Hot Fuss
Manic Street Preachers - Holy Bible

I'm sure it'll change as soon as the next batch of new metal albums start appearing, though, I'm starting to get a bit bored with these. Don't want to overplay them.

Not sure if any of it will appeal to you. La Dispute and The Paper Chase both have off-key/intense vocals and amazing lyrics, Mars Volta and Grammatics are both catchy modern prog rock stuff, and Keith Jarrett is very introspective jazz.

I know who Keith Jarrett is :D I've often heard of those other bands, but for some reason they keep slipping under my radar.

You, on the other hand, should check out that Silverchair album.

Glad you're digging the Pensees Nocturne, FtR. :dio:

For me:

Gigan - The Order of the False Eye (marvellous psychedelic tech-death/grind)

The Clash- London Calling (greatest punk album ever? full of awesome reggae and ska influences, and totally righteous lyrics on every track)

Emerson, Lake and Palmer- Pictures at an Exhibition (mental prog)

Azarath- Diabolic Impious Evil (maybe the most brutal death metal I've ever heard)

Wildhearts- Endless Nameless (the Beach Boys meets Throbbing Gristle)
