Not for "November Rain"? :yikes: That's a great song.

November Rain is great, but Coma is absolutely amazing.

Use Your Illusion I & II have some excellent songs but two and a half hours of Guns 'N Roses is just too much, I'm glad they made them separate albums instead of a double because listening to the whole thing in one go is just exhausting.

You take the best tracks from both and put them on a single LP you'd have a better album than Appetite.

Appetiser for Destruction? Aperitif for Destruction?

Alcest - Écailles de lune
Year: 2010

Even before this thread was made, Souvenirs d'un autre monde was on my list. I re listen to it quite often, but when doing my due diligence on including it I noticed that there was more Alcest (not paying much attention clearly) to be heard. While Kodama and Spiritual Instincts are great albums this one absolutely blew me away. A perfect blend of Black Metal and Shoegaze (horrifically dubbed blackgaze), everything Souvenirs promised us could be possible 3 years earlier. Stunningly beautiful.

3 Choice Tracks: Écailles de lune – Part 1, Écailles de lune – Part 2, Sur l'océan couleur de fer

I heard blackgaze though Ghost Bath and Harakiri for the Sky: is this similar? If so, I'll add it to my small list of blackgaze albums.

I've not heard these but Alcest (Neige) literally invented Blackgaze. Écailles de lune and Souvenirs d'un autre monde needs to be in your list.

Here would be a really great challenge: Picking just ONE album somebody should listen to before they die.
