I can't say I really know what you're asking, so I'm just going to answer what I think the questions might be. If not, well, you got more than you bargained for.
Favorite aesthetically?
Probably 40 oz. because it's just sick.
And Tool's Lateralus. A)Because I love Tool and B) because both records have the notorious awesome Alex Grey work on them.
Favorite albums are probably my Brightblack Morning Light just because their vibe/sound totally meshes with the lovin pops/crackles of vinyl.
But fav fav with best story is John Butler Trio's Sunrise Over Sea
...only cuz I love the album with all my heart, and the guys, and the fact that it was only a 1000 edition run.
Merry Christmas
