I really don't have one.

My mode of listening is to jump from song to song on YouTube, each being in at least a way better than all the past ones. So that once I find such a song, I will listen to it on repeat for a week or so and include it into my pantheon, or should I say, panodeon. Hardly a song is allowed to be worse than their predecessors. This way, as I leave more and more songs unavailable to me, my taste is only allowed to improve.

DEVO

The Hardcore material to Oh No, It's DEVO is the best post-punk/new wave/art rock/synthpop/synthpunk/proto-math rock ever put to tape. Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are DEVO! is especially an objective masterpiece that STILL manages to throw people for a loop and inspire genuine hostility despite coming out close to 40 years ago and not even being that sonically abrasive when it came out. It is the pinnacle of pop music.

Also, DEVO's music really helped me get back on the right track several years ago.

The Wedding Present

They've actually been my favorite for so long that I've gotten bored with them being my favorite band, but search as hard as I can, I can't find anything in rock that's as powerful. Certainly groups like Einsturzende Neubauten were more innovative, but nobody else has quite as much substance, especially on the album Seamonsters. On that album, the combination of intimate but literary lyricism, melancholy crooning, heavy post-hardcore-influenced noise blasts (it was produced by Albini), heavy drums, and hints of jangle pop combine to make one of the most emotionally potent things I've ever heard in rock music. I like some screamo bands, but in terms of emotion this can rival anything in that genre. The only things in music I've found that can beat it are certain jazz and classical pieces, like Charles Mingus' Let My Children Hear Music, and Antonio Vivladi's classic The Four Seasons
Pet Sounds might still be the best rock album, though
