So, some people have albums that they've burnt out on from listening to them too much. Others have an album that they thought they enjoyed at first, but after a few listens, they ceased to find it interesting. And then there are those albums that you'll never get tired of. For some reason, they're just awesome every time you give it a spin. Maybe you play it every day, maybe you only play it once a year, but the awesomeness hasn't worn off yet.

Some of you might say that "I don't know if I'll never get tired of an album, 'cause any album that I think I can't get enough of might one day become totally boring to me," which makes sense. If so, just name an album that you've had for a long time and haven't gotten tired of so far.

If you have no specific album to name, you could also name a band or even a song that you haven't gotten tired of yet.

Feel free to describe why you'll never get tired of it, as well.

For me, pretty much all of my 10 ratings and a few of my 9 ratings are albums that I can't seem to get tired of. Chaosphere is one of those off the top of my head... it doesn't sound quite as over-produced as Meshuggah's more recent stuff, nor is it as down-tuned, but at the same time (maybe because of this) it sounds heavier, more hostile, and more abrasive to the ears, which is somehow incredibly addictive. Like a machine of death that just pulls you in and crushes you in its inescapable jaws. Don't think I've gotten tired of it yet. I especially like how the bass sounds like a growling machine/animal hybrid.

EDIT: I suppose that, even though this is in the General Metal forum, the album doesn't necessarily have to be metal.

That's a tough one honestly... I mean I've got a list of albums that I love and that I consider my personal classics.
I'm thinking most of those I revisit from time to time and though I sometimes get tired of them, I eventually need to spin it.
I think there might be some that I like more than others... I would need some time to think about that then maybe come
back to the thread with a better answer

Riot - Thundersteel

There's some magic in this album I can't even describe. Listening to it is like coming home and seeing your family after a long trip somewhere far away, it's so lovely traditional, entertaining and extremely high quality record it will most likely stick with me forever. It has already done that for like 20 years or so, the first listen was enough to get me hooked.

All those records I've given 10/10. I think that's a quality a 10/10 need, they shouldn't feel worn out after years of listeningen to them. That's why I never give a "newly" released record a 10/10, it has to grow into the perfect rating. When looking at the list of all the albums I've given 10/10 all those are records I've spinned countless times and never hestitate to listen once more to.

These are the albums I keep finding myself going back too the most.

1. Painkiller - Judas Priest. A classic that never gets old.

2. Hall Of The Mountain King - Savatage. The Whole album is very enjoyable.

3. Black Hand Inn - Running Wild I Never get tired of those riffs, they always make me want to go crazy.

4. At The Heart Of Winter - Immortal. It's the Quality sound, tempo and guitar work, and melodic riffs, aswel as the dark wintery atmosphere of the album.

5. De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas - Mayhem. I especially like "Freezing Moon", "Life Eternal" and the title track most.

6. Oath Bound - Summoning. I always get lost in the beautiful atmosphere every time I listen to it.

7. Reign In Blood - Slayer. Can be very addictive.

And like somebody mentioned in an earlier post, Tristania's first two albums I Go back to regularly.

Usually my favorite albums depend on the current mood I'm in. However, there are some that I can always listen to and I'll always love:
I can never get enough of Painkiller or Storm of the Light's Bane. Bolt Thrower's The IVth Crusade, For Victory, and Those Once Loyal are also great for any mood I'm in

Interestingly enough Spiritual Healing. The last two weeks I've listened to that album every time I commute from the Uni back home. And it doesn't get one bit boring - every listen is just as fresh as the first

Actually, i think it is in the Heavy Metal that there are so many albums that you eill never got tired off, as others already metioned, I think priest and maiden have a lot,
Saxon: Wheels Of Steel , Power and the Glory (I know not every Metalhead like it. I Love it), Unleash the beast, Lionheart, The inner Sanctum...
Nightwish: Oceanborn, Wishmaster...
Helloween: Gambling with the devil, my god given right...
and yes, it depends on the mood of the moment which i prefare...

For the past months my favorite albums that I've been listening to very often and am nowhere near getting tired of are (incidentally each from a different genre):

Mercyful Fate - Melissa (heavy)
Lucifer's Fall - III - From The Deep (doom)
Nile - Annihilation Of The Wicked (death)
Slayer - Show No Mercy (thrash)
Emperor - Anthems To The Welkin At Dusk (black)

These are 10/10 albums if ever I've heard any and will most likely stay in my top twenty (if not top ten) all-time favorite albums for a while.

"Just Another Day" By Never Ending Game. "God Forgives..." has been my number one song on Spotify for three years in a row. It is the perfect hardcore album in my eyes. Great riffs and guitar tone, with a few solos and leads mixed into to keep it interesting. Jazz inspired drumming (even some of the songwriting is jazz inspired). Deep lyrics with a powerful vocal delivery. Its a fantastic release.



The only downside is the hideous cover art
