Dark Side of the Moon always makes me feel an emotional reaction, especially on vinyl
-
With the wizard of Oz playing?

My friends and I did this an it really is a mind fuck how some of the events line up
I have been a Pink Floyd fan more of my life then not. My buddies and I would eat up every little bit. One thing that is lost in the modern era is that on the Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii VHS tape, there is a bunch of hand held video bits. The guys acting goofy and shit. Some parts are of them recording DSotM. In one bit someone is coming to Roger's hotel room and he shuts the door on them. On the TV in the background, he is watching Wizard of Oz.
Pink Floyd made a few movie scores before the made DSotM.
DSotM is such a huge accomplishment, I don't think Roger wants his greatest accomplishment to be diminished in any ways so they have always denied any influence.
That last bit is just my personal opinion.
I always liked Meddle and the original Fantasia better. If you start them right, the part in One of these Days will be when the two dinosaurs are fighting. And right as the fight hits the peak and the T-Rex finally gets that mortal blow on the Triceratops, the lyrics will be
One of these days I will cut you into little pieces
and when the Triceratops finally closes its eyes to die, the song fades out and ends
That, and a bunch of other really cool shit syncs up

My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade album has a special place in my heart. It was the album that bonded my closest friends in high school and I. It was also a album that my good friend and I loved a bit more than the others. He decided and sadly succeded in commiting suicide back in 2017. So... anytime I hear a song from that album, I'm taken back to high school times and more particularly, to when my good friend was still around. Even as I typing this, it has me tearing up and close to choking up just thinking about him, the times we had after our high school years and during our high school years.

Good call on Disintegration!
-
-
Robert miles -children love it, the whole album. sound dated now but the return to that time is real when I hear it.
-
Oasis’ first three albums specifically because of certain songs.
- Live Forever from Definitely Maybe
- What’s The Story, Morning Glory from the album of the same name. Also, Cast No Shadow.
- D’you Know What I Mean from Be Here Now
Not really emotional in that sense, but more of nostalgia because that was the music at home growing up. So hearing them again brings me back to my childhood home that I left for college and never really gone back to anymore.
-
Fuck Staind and Aaron Lewis but I was listening to their first album Tormented recently. The song four walls makes me cry almost every time. I was in a dark place back then and I've sort of circled back to that. I'll be okay though.
-
Bach on organ in general, specifically BWV 565 reliably makes me cry. Also Max Reger's Introduction And Passacaglia In D Minor.
And then on the other end of the spectrum, I once got some really bad news while listening to Pantera, and now I'm afraid to listen to them out of superstition. But that's not really applicable here I suppose.
-
Sure it is. S'all whatever

-
The Lam lie down on Broadway. I was in my mid teens. The drugs were A-Ok.
-
Global Underground 006: Sydney
-
Angeles & Airwaves - We Don’t Need to Whisper
-
Good calls on The Cure - Disintegration and Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon. I'll ad that Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime gets me pumped.
-
Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park.
I'm a grown adult now with a family and happy. But as soon as I hear Papercut, I immediately become a moody teenager again for no reason haha
-
This is a tough question! I can’t think of an album specifically that would make me emotional.
However, individual songs would be a list that is way too long.
Apologies for not actually answering the question.
-
Bleachers - Gone Now
Was present during a tough time in my life.
-
The Fragile by Nine Inch Nails. It always brings me back to my brooding highschool days.
-
I think We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank (Modest Mouse) and Give Up (Postal Service) would be my top full albums.
Sounds silly but Enema of the State (Blink 182) also causes me to have a strong emotional reaction mostly because of Adam's Song but it's also just one of my favourite albums of all time so it brings up lots of emotions, good and bad.
Also you can probably tell what kind of childhood I had given these choices LOL.

Warren Zevon - "Life'll Kill Ya" & "My Ride's Here"
My father's death doesn't hit me in my day-to-day life much. But there are moments it hits me. Dad and Warren weren't close, exactly, but they were fellow-travelers and Dad worked the concerts at the Capital.

She/her/hers there are some relateable bangers there

Every time? Im not sure if there are any and im not sure if I could even point to a whole album for a once in awhile. Usually its a particular song. One thing I hate with digital music subscriptions is you usually get some sort of remaster and some of the albums were very well crafted and adding some songs ruins the feel of the thing.
-
Didnt say everytime, maybe its just within a range of possibilities or probaballities or plausibillities
-
Yeah so like jethro tulls stormwatch ends with elegy which is such a deeply moving song it can bring me close to tears.
