What artist(s) dominate your music collection? (NO DIGITAL!)

[adamclark52]

Which artists or bands dominate your physical music collections (CD, vinyl, cassette, 8-Track). Digital is not included. Even stuff you've purchased. Mainly because *I* don't want to take the time to count my digital albums.

I just included bands. There are some grey areas. Efrim Manuel Menuck has multiple bands. Should I include them all under one group as "Efrim Manuel Menuck"? I did not. Same goes for Trent Reznor and Mike Patton. Devin Townsend has done many solo albums as well as played in bands. I just included the solo albums that are billed as "Devin Townsend". The Melvins have had a few iterations. There's the Melvins. the Melvins "lite" and right now I think there's two or three versions of the Melvins (the one with the Big Business guys, the one with two bass players) but they're always "the Melvins".

Here's mine. I have something like 1300 CDs still. I still buy them. Obviously it's bands that have released more albums or have been around longer.

29 CDs - the Melvins
20 CDs - Napalm Death
19 CDs - Sonic Youth
16 CDs - Blut Aus Nord, Devin Townsend
14 CDs - Enslaved, Nine Inch Nails
13 CDs - Faith No More. KoRn, Sigur Ros
12 CDs - Judas Priest, Ministry, Swans
11 CDs - Anaal Nathrakh, Deicide, Marilyn Manson, Slayer, U2
10 CDs - Behemoth, My Dying Bride, Neurosis, Nile, Sepultura

[Ultimo Gallos]

Ramones-Got I think 14 CDs. Might be missing some of the collections done after Joey or Dee Dee passed.

At one time had at least 20 KMFDM cds. Sure lots of them were 1 song remixed 12 times on the CD.

[Hobby Drifter]

Without question, Ozzy Osbourne. I think I have every (American) version of every release of every one of his albums on cassette, CD, and at least a few LPs.

['Foretold' Joker]

Iron Maiden easily I have every album on CD

I'm similar in taste and collection to you, by the looks of it.

[Baldobomb-22-OH-MAN!!!]

I have every album by Agalloch, Neuraxis and Deafheaven. I have most of Death, Katatonia and Immolation's albums, about a third of all Amorphis' albums and most of Pig Destroyer's. That said I own over 400 cds so nobody is prolific enough to "dominate" my collection.

[67 more]

Devo

[Ultimo Gallos]

Wait are we counting "import"/bootleg concert cds? If so yikes

Let me check my database....

I got 50+ Ramones CDs,20 or so ALice in CHains CDs,17 Misfits CDs(all of this is the Danzig era).

Oh wait looks like I got at least 18 Johnny Cash CDs. If you include stuff like his storytellers cd with Wille Nelson and the Highwaymen CD. I forget that I have so many of his albums and collections now. THe last 8 years I keep finding them either extremely cheap used or fairly cheap new.

[James Fabiano]

There's only one (who could ever reach me)...

[Cranjis McBasketball]

Aerosmith. I have all the CDs they ever put out. Whatever that amounts to. 20 or so? Maybe a few more.

[wakko]

Green Day - 14 (all studio albums and bullet in a bible)
Weird Al - 14
Zebrahead - 13
Seether - 8
Rise Against - 9
Reel Big Fish - 9
Marilyn Manson - 9
Less Than Jake - 13
Dropkick Murphys - 8
Counting Crows - 8
Disturbed - 8
Collective Soul - 8

[Vampiro138]

Bob Dylan - 41
KISS - 31
Beatles - 36
Oasis - 14 (have a number of the singles too which with like 3 B sides each I consider a full on EP)

[Phosphor Glow]

I lost my entire CD collection about a decade ago so my only physical media I have at this point is my relatively small vinyl collection that I'm trying to make larger because vinyl is dope. That being said, the two artists that dominate my collection are Coheed & Cambria and My Chemical Romance.

[Raskovnik]

I had a pretty sizable Coheed and Cambria collection once upon a time. All their albums on CD, Second Stage Turbine Blade on the beautiful white vinyl, deluxe editions for Year of the Black Rainbow and The Afterman. Then I moved a lot and kept moving and wound up giving pretty much all of it away. I also had the Right Away, Great Captain CD collection, plus his first live album, and they're probably around my aunt's house somewhere.



It's gorgeous.

Neil Young
Elton John
