A while back I started going through my music collection to find my 10 favorite albums that I own. I took a hiatus from this, but had time today to put myself back in the mix. So far I have 5 categories covered:1. Favorite hip-hop – Tribe Called Quest – “Low End Theory”2. Favorite Foreign – Jean Leloup – “Le Dome”3. Favorite Classic Rock – Neil Young – “Harvest”4. Favorite Comedy – David Cross – “It’s Not Funny”5. Favorite Punk - NOFX - "So Long and Thanks For All the Shoes"Today I started my morning by listening to one of my many 80's mix tapes. This was a great decade for music, and much of my collection is filled with the bands from this era. The Smiths, Depeche Mode, Psychedelic Furs are just a few of the bands I still listen to on a regular basis. There is one band that has always stood out for me though, and that band is New Order. Born from the ashes of Joy Division, they are an act that many felt would not achieve the popularity their predecessors did. They have had the staying power, and continue to release relevant music today. While their collection is huge, I would not be able to live with out Substance. This is one album I can put on for any occasion, and enjoy every minute of it. I usually do not like to make "best of's" my favorites of an artist, to me this is the easy way out. I will make the exception this one time and say that Substance is my favorite 80's album.
