The Temptations - Sky's The Limit (1971)
A psychedelic soul opus full of miraculous music; can't believe I ever wrote The Temptations off as just mere Motown pop, cause they're pretty darn amazing.
Peter Gabriel - Up (2002)
Mr. Genesis-'Shock The Monkey' meets post-2000 Radiohead and births some rather wicked progeny. Me likey!!
Dead Can Dance - Within The Realm of a Dying Sun (1987)
Got this based on Zarko's thread, and I think it's fu
cking awesome on every count. I think I'll be checking out the rest of their discography reallllll soon!
