What do you think?

I'll start with eels, the five album stretch (five albums in a ROW, important, I think) of Electro-Shock Blues, Daisies of the Galaxy, Souljacker, Shootenanny!, and Blinking Lights and Other Revelations. Also, it's hard to ignore Husker Du, with Zen Arcade, New Day Rising, Flip Your Wig, Candy Apple Grey, and Warehouse, although Candy Apple Grey is a slight weak link.

Sarah | 13814 comments I read the article this morning. I liked that he read my mind not only with the question about one-album wonders but also with the exact ones. I liked the Freaks & Geeks/La's comparison.

 ~Geektastic~ (atroskity) | 3205 comments The White Stripes. I think all of the albums they have released are excellent, and each one is slightly different and better than the last. The White Stripes, De Stijl, White Blood Cells, Elephant, Get Behind Me Satan, and at a sixth and still strong, Icky Thump. Unfortunately, that is probably their last.

RandomAnthony | 14536 comments Yes, Sarah, I agree. And some comments say Drive-by Truckers should be included, but I can't agree, as they usually mix a tepid record in every now and then with the great ones.
