Andre:
Everlast - Eat at Whitey's
Well, I'm not a big album person (growing up in the age of digital piracy and all, not to say we endorse illegal activity here at ZBL). The few albums I've purchased were for 1 or 2 songs, with the rest being just filler. However, Eat At Whitey's was the only album I ever enjoyed ALL the songs off of. Think about that. I did, which is why I'm throwing in my vote for Eat At Whitey's by Everlast as Best Album.
Kyle:
Daft Punk - Discovery
Now, i'm no musician, I play the harmonica for good luck(the guy with the harmonica in war movies never dies) but I like to think I know good music when I hear it, and Discovery is it, the album came out in the glorious year of 2000. I was watching MuchMusic one day, and this video came on, "One more time!" is all I hear with it's beautiful beat, I was captivated, the video was music in it's pure incarnate form, colors flashing everywhere, everyone having a great time, it was a day i'll never forget, when Discovery came into my musical spectrum. The whole album tells a wonderful story, treachery, love, happiness, joy, it's simply a wonderful experience listening to the album, it will always hold a special place in my heart.
Jems:
Madvillain - Madvillainy
Madlib's smoky layers upon layers of scratchy samples from a distant era gettin' busy with today's rolling bass lines. A cool, dark, hypnotic, funny, unsettling, stylish comic book brought to life with sound. First hard to hear, then hard to stop hearing. Instrumental interludes that defy genre. MF Doom sustains his high by staring down a cracked mirror over the course of twenty-two short tracks that abandon choruses and cliches. This is rap's space rock.

Word up to Jems's choice: I may be Canada's Least Blunted, but I can still appreciate the finesse of Doom's raps and Mad's beats — Madvillainy is sick as all hell.
Alright, i personally love daft punk...so my number one choice is right there...after that comes jems's choice which i can say i proudly downloaded and well...frankly...sorry andre...wasn't a fan of your choice though it did amuse me
You guys should also give MM..Food a listen, if you like what MF Doom's doing with himself.
I have one or two tracks off MM..Food, I think.
As I recall they're prettty sick. I'll look into it some more when the holidays roll 'round.
