It's impossible for me to pinpoint one "favourite" album, so I'll go ahead and talk about a few.

The first album that really got me into music was Metallica's Ride The Lightning. I was about 15 at the time, and became completely obsessed with the band. Back then, I sounded like EvF talking about Orbital. I've grown out of Metallica, but it was my first "favourite" and I can still appreciate a lot of their work.

An album that still surprises me is Incubus's Morning View. I really wouldn't call myself an Incubus fan, and every other album of their's is borderline unlistenable, but this one really struck a chord with me. There are a few throwaway tracks, but the majority of the album bounces around in mood and energy, often resulting in great songs. You have some really laid back melancholy tunes like Mexico and 11am, and then prog-tinged jams like Under My Umbrella. It's just a really great rock album.

An recent album that's earned a top spot in my library is Thom Yorke's The Eraser. I actually don't really have much to say about this album, surprisingly. All I can suggest is that you listen to it on some rainy afternoon, perhaps while reading, or relaxing. I'm sure it'll capture you in the same way it did me.
