    Albums and their opposites

    I own 'Into The Woods' by Malcolm Middleton, and I also have Tracey Thorn's 'Out of the Woods'. Blimey!

    I also own 'Moving' by The Raincoats, and 'Still' by Joy Division.

    No marks for pointing out 'The White Album' by The Beatles and 'The Black Album' by The Damned. But I'm sure there are lots more examples.

            Similarly:

            Yes Morphine
            No! They Might Be Giants

            ...both of which represent my feelings about the respective band.

                                      Some excellent entries. But Stumpy, you broke the rules - New Rose was a single, from the album Damned Damned Damned (opposite album - Bob Dylan's Saved).

                                          Stumpy previously broke the rules with Hold Back the Night and Here Comes the Night - both of which were singles.

                                          He did, sir. I saw him do it.

                                            Stumpy, take a time-out to think about your behaviour on this thread. You've let the board down, you've let the thread down, but most of all...

                                            You can redeem yourself with three good examples of opposite albums.
