I just got one of those cool BMG Music club things in the mail. 7 free CD's . I'm seriously gonna order some so I'll need YABS recommendations and votes . I have 10 Albums I want but only 7 slots. So the most popular votes on this should be cool.

Here goes....

Shinedown: Leave a Whisper

Shinedown : Us & Them

Radiohead : Ok Computer

Wolfmother: Wolfmother

Blink 182 : Greatest Hits

Hinder : Lips of An Angel

Audioslave : Out of Exile

The Killers : Hot Fuss

U2 : The Best of U2 1980-1990

Jet: Shine On

All are albums I'm pretty interested in. Jet had a great album last time but I'm unsure of the new album. The Killers sound good , but I don't know if I'll enjoy the rest of their album. Its a tough decision so any votes for this would be welcome.

My immediate response on reading the thread title was, "You certainly do!"

But seriously, folks...

Wolfmother is great if you don't care much about lyrical content and just wanna bang your head to some really fucking loud music. Lots of big dumb riffs in the Sabbath/Deep Purple vein.

OK Computer is a work of genius. I don't know if you'd like it, though, but hell, if you're not paying for it, it's worth a try.

Blink 182 - I wouldn't listen to one of their CDs if you paid me. Well, unless it was like a thousand dollars or something.

I've heard a few tracks off the Jet album. The up-tempo tracks are really good, in the mold of their first album. There's a few too many slower songs for my liking, but your tastes may vary.

U2 - well, you'd pretty much know all the songs on that one, I'm sure. Your call.

Audioslave are a pretty damn good rock band. Can't go wrong with one of theirs.

The Killers are really good. I haven't heard the whole album, but I'm yet to hear a single of theirs I don't like at least a bit.

The rest I can't speak to, having never heard of them.

Ok Computer is the greatest rock album from the 90's. I can prove it with graphs.

I can't in good concience recomend anything else on that list.
