"Perfect" albums

Was thinking about this earlier and was just wondering what other people would say...

Is there any albums you consider to be "perfect" or very very close to perfect?

I managed to come up with (What's the Story) Morning Glory by Oasis, as it's one of the few albums where pretty much every track is single quality.

A couple of people have suggested The Fat of the Land, by prodigy, but I've never really got into them so I can't say I've heard much of it.

Ideas anyone?

Get out and get a life..

Sure there is many more i could write down from my collection, but those just come from the top of my head
 
Lots have been mentioned already from my list - so I'll list only the ones that haven't:



Rages Against The Machine - Evil Empire
John Petrucci - Suspended Animation
Nirvana - In Utero
Alexisonfire - Alexisonfire
36 Crazyfists - A Snow Capped Romance


And I don't think it's by fluke that all 4 studio albums by RATM have been mentioned in this thread. What an epic band.
 
Well my definition of a perfect album is one you can listen to from start to finish without wanting to skip tracks, so on that basis out of the albums I've got:-

Kings of Leon - Because of the Times
Stereo MC's - Connected
Portishead - Dummy
Jamiroquai - Dynamite
Snow Patrol - Final Straw
Jem - Finally Woken
The Killers - Hot Fuss
Elbow - Seldom Seen Kid
Hard Fi - Stars of CCTV
Goldfrapp - Supernature
 
Must admit, do like a lot of what has been already mentioned, so I'll give a few that aren't:

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Pronounced leh-nerd skin-nerd
Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsys
Cream - Wheels of Fire
Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
 
The Shins - Chutes To Narrow
Mogwai - Young Team
Moby - Play
The Killers - Hot Fuss
At The Drive-In - Relationship of Command

oh and Radiohead - In Rainbows and The Bends
(I love EVERY track on them, and while they aren't my favourite RH albums, I won't skip anything like Fitter Happier/Pulk/Sit Down Stand Up/Treefingers/How Do You?)

I said that ;)
 
Metallica - Ride The Lightning

Even escape? Thats a big mehh song lyrics and musically wise.

Id say A Death Grip On Yesterday- Atreyu... One of a few albums i can listen to in its whole.

Vampire weekend is my favourite perfect album. Each song is similar but different, most tracks could be a single, what a perfect album should be.

Same goes for all the Kings of Leon albums and jack johnsons last 2 albums.
 
Can't believe 'Zero 7 - The Garden' hasn't been mentioned, never grows old for me and I'd recommend it to anyone.
