Drum N Bass is one of my favourite genres but again the lack of pure quality albums limits the genre. You hear the odd outstanding track but rarely a full album. Calyx and Teebee released Anatomy a couple of years back which was decent Drum N Bass and the master LTJ Bukem has some great tracks out there but I haven't heard a top quality DnB album for a long while.

Danny Byrd's 'Weird Science' album is solid enough but very commercial too.

I would kill for a decent Breakbeat album and the only team that float my boat these days (apart from Prodigy) are Stanton Warriors and they have been quite lately.
I hear ya on all that.
Best you'll get most of the time are albums that are actually just DJ mixes from the artist.
That's typical with Drum & Bass and Breaks though, considering the market it's aimed at. I personally don't really mind not having albums of either genre. Having a catalog of bangin' singles from the artist is just as good.
