Linkin Park Meteora

 

[Subtle Demise]

I think I posted in here before, but I'm changing my answer.
I'm going with Scatology by Coil. It's a profound mix of industrial rock, noise, classical, and psychedelic music. It's dark, haunting and blasphemous, with some humor sprinkled in. Plus the original cover looks like some kind of religious text:

Hmm, deciding on one single album that I love the most proves impossible for me, but here are my absolute favourites that I listen to again and again in no particular order. I love electronic music, synthpop, progressive rock and folk music.

Phew that was quite something. Sorry for providing such a long list, I just can't decide on one over the other. But I had a lot of fun remembering all these albums.

Consider it a list of albums I'd take with me if I decided to live on a deserted island or if I had to leave earth after an apocalyptic event.

Every album on this list holds a special place in my heart for one reason or another. Those are albums that put me in a state of perfect satisfaction when I hear them. :3

Yes I know, there are too many obscure folk albums on this list, but as someone fascinated by language I love that kind of music.

If the Rayman 1 Soundtrack had an official release it would be on this list too.

+1 for Red Vox.
Also, you should probably use thumbnails instead of full images or list the album titles instead, because your post alone doubled the page's length.
