  • Weasels Ripped My Flesh by Frank Zappa
  • Monoliths and Dimensions by Sunn O)))
  • The Piper at the Gates of Dawn by Pink Floyd (taken from a chapter in The Wind In The Willows, admittedly)
  • Seasons in the Abyss by Slayer

Probably more but my brain is tired right now.

The Butthole Surfers - Psychic... Powerless... Another Man's Sac. Okay I mostly like this for the backstory - one band member wanted to call it Psychic... Powerless and another one was lobbying for Another Man's Sac, so they just put the two together and got something weirder than either proposed title would have been alone.

Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings And Food

Judas Priest - Screaming For Vengeance. Just such a cool, fitting title for a metal album.

Brian Eno - Another Green World

Public Enemy - It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Spiritualized - Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space

Spacemen 3 - Taking Drugs to Make Music to Take Drugs To. Even though it was originally a bootleg so they didn't even come up with that name themselves.

The Angry Samoans - The Unboxed Set. I've never actually heard this, but I like the joke of the title: See, it's every album they'd put out so far compiled onto one CD, so it's an "unboxed set" as opposed to a boxed set.

Someone brought up Caravan: For Girls Who Grow Plump in the Night in the albums that sounded better after a second listening thread. I've never actually heard the band, but I've heard of that album before and I've always quite liked the title.

Also, since Spain did it too, the best title I've used for one of my own releases is easily Raised By Motorcycles.

For Girls Who Grow Plump in the Night

I love that title too. One day I will listen to that album, just for the title.

Also.
