i made a thread like this on my music forum, but i thought it couldn't hurt to make it here too,in a few days i'll be getting my shit slow ( 364kb/s) but the cheapest one i can afford dsl connection and the provider is going to give me 2 months of free traffic, so i thought i'd screw them over ( yeah, right, they're getting screwd) and go on a download frenzy, download all albums i never bothered to, all the artists i've heard about but never bothered to check them out ( the classic cult bands ), so what i'm asking you to do is suggest a band and album ( please state the year it was produced and your favourite track so i don't waste my time downloading utter crap ) and here's a list of bands/albums i already own that will help you maybe determine what my taste is ( and prevent you from suggesting stuff i already have ):

sorry i forggot to mention i have london calling ( i've added it now )and don't think much of it....:( and thanks for the correction, i wasn't sure but i have rectified the situation ;)).....any recommendations? some rap/hip hop and hardcore would be nice as i'm fairly ignorant of the scene ( as far as hip hop, think a tribe called quest, as for hardcore think at the drive-in's "arcarsenal")
