Albums that you can listen to from beginning to end

On an all killers-no semi fillers-nothing "only" above average-and not one single second that is not at least as awesome as the previous one-level I'd say:

QUEENSRŸCHE - Operation Mindcrime
MERCYFUL FATE - Don't Break the Oath

When it comes to consistensy, those two are in a class of their own, really.

Friends Of Hell along with Death Penalty are actually just the kind of albums this thread is about for me.

Actually all of the records which i consider(ed) at least good,i listen to them from start to finish.I consider as + when a band has good(usually not always great but just good) songs from start to finish and not one hit wonder bands like many US 80's ''cult'' bands.

I hate "Music" and "I lost you" and I have to skip it every time I listen to that album.

Heh, I had a feeling that those two are the most unliked songs of the album but I enjoy them anyway.

FoH is my least favourite WG release too. Maybe I haven't given it the attention it deserves compared to their other releases.

I listen from beginning to end of any album, if I have enough will to do so. And time, of course. Although it is questionable whether that pays off. With new releases more often not than vice versa. I did that even with Trivium (gnashing teeth in the second half - well I know it was bad for teeth). When albums which I regard highly are in question, yes, they get full engagement.

I can pretty much listen to everything I have from beginning to end...I don't always choose to because sometimes I may be in the mood for a particular song or whatever...typically though, I like listening to an album in full.

As most people here, I can listen to my albums from beginning to the end to, i would say, 90% too. Sometimes there are some filler tracks but it is pretty scarce as I keep only what I like, otherwise, I sell or trade the item.

However, some highlights LP's or CD's it is ALWAYS a pleasure to listen to from beginning to the end, each times, are for example :

ARIA (Russia) : Krow za Krow 1991
CRUSH (Greece) : Kingdom of the Kings 1993
IRON MAIDEN (UK) : Powerslave 1984 (very original, isn't it ; ) ?! )
KRAKEN (Colombia) : Kraken I 1987
MANOWAR (US) : Kings of Metal 1987
MURO (Spain) : Acero y Sangre 1987
OMEN (US) : Battle Cry 1984 TOTAL MASTERPIECE !!! Who would say skipping a track on this LP ???
PANZER (Chile) : Tierra de Metales 1989
PANZER (Chile) : Crol (Vivo O Muerte) 1994
PROUD EXISTENCE (NL) : The Trial EP 1988
RUNNING WILD (D) : Black Hand Ihn 1994
SATAN'S HOST (US) : Metal from Hell 1986
STORMWITCH (D) : Tales of Terror 1985
TIERRA SANTA (Spain) : Legendario 1999
VIRGIN STEELE (US) : Invictus 1998
XIQUENA (Spain) : Demo 2005

and so on ....
