    Some time ago I wrote this, on another thread, about

    Quicksilver Messenger Service: Happy Trails

    And the third Album was

    It's a Beautiful Day by the band of the same name.

    And let me throw in

    Zappa's We're only in it for the money

    For the rock and metal fans who might be interested, here are some of my favorite rock and metal albums in terms of consistency and number of good songs in no particular order of ranking:

    Megadeth -- Youthanasia

    Not a popular pick to be sure (most would probably say that Rust in Peace or Peace Sells... But Who's Buying? are their favorite Megadeth albums and those two have some of my favorite Megadeth songs as well but are not as consistent overall)

    Devin Townsend -- Accelerated Evolution

    I think this album is the best combination of the heavy yet soothing or calming progressive rock/metal sound that Devin is well-known for.

    Metallica -- Kill em' All

    Metallica's first album and also their best in my opinion. Has many songs with really good riffs and that excellent crunchy guitar sound that I think exemplifies old school Bay Area thrash.

    Testament -- The New Order (Bay Area thrash)

    Exodus -- Force Of Habit (Groove, thrash metal)

    Ghost Brigade -- Isolation Songs (Post-metal, Atmospheric sludge, Alternative)

    Rainbow -- Rising (Classic hard rock, heavy metal)

    Killing Joke -- Democracy (Industrial rock)

    Ministry -- Animositisomina (Industrial metal)

    Alcest -- Spriritual Instinct (Blackgaze, Post-Metal)

    Blut Aus Nord -- 777 - Cosmosophy (Industrial metal, instrumental)

    Tuber -- Desert Overcrowded (Stoner Rock, instrumental)

    Not as many consistent albums for electronic but one that I really enjoy listening to would be

    Bjørn Lynne -- Beneath Another Sky (Spacesynth, instrumental)
