5)Since 2007-Vol 1/Remember-Vol 2/Always, Big Bang

I’m going to cheat with Big Bang because, like many Asian artists, they have for the most part released mini-albums instead of full albums, and it wasn’t until quite some time after their initial success that they began releasing real albums. But they so clearly deserve to be on my favorite albums list that I’m going to combine Vol 2-Remember, which has the largest percentage of my favorite tracks, with some of their mini-album songs.

1. Intro(Vol 1)

2.Haru Haru (Vol 2)

3. Geojitmal/Lies (Always)

4. Haru Haru(Acoustic, Vol 2)

5. Together with You feat. Park Bom

6. My Heaven(Big Bang)

7. A Fool’s Only Tears

8. Remember (Vol 2)

9. Always (Always)

10. Remember(Vol 2)

11. My Girl(Vol 1)

“Haru Haru(Day by Day)”| Download

“Together with You” feat. Park Bom|Download

6)One Fell Swoop, The Spill Canvas

01. Lust A Prima Vista
02. Staplegunned
03. Polygraph, Right Now!
04. Dutch Courage
05. Natalie Marie and 1cc
06. Teleport A&B
07. Break a Leg
08. This Is For Keeps
09. Himerus and Eros
10. Valiant
11. Secret Oath
12. Bound to Happen
