In no particular order
Station to station
Ziggy Stardust
Diamond dogs
Low
Blackstar
(I said no particular order but black star is the least good of these and station is the best, idk about ordering the other three though)
Heroes does not belong in his top five, secret life of Arabia is bad and the eno ambient stuff is too different from the first half of the album, the change is too abrupt
Low
Heroes
Ziggy
Diamond Dogs
Station to Station
Station to Station
Hunky dory
Diamond dogs
Young americans
Ziggy Stardust
no order
Aladdin Sane
Station to Station
Low
"Heroes"
Scary Monsters
Low
Station To Station
Aladdin Sane
Blackstar
Ziggy
Fucking happy to see Blackstar getting some mentions even though I didn't include it myself. But it really is one of his greatest.
Yeah I posted but Blackstar is honestly #6 for me.
David Bowie 1967
Tonight
Tin Machine 2
Reality
Pin Ups
Based, even got the 69 get to top it all off.
yea me too. Had to make a choice between that or Young Americans, but fuck I love that album so much. Especially one of the versions with It's Gonna Be Me (with strings). One of my favorite songs of his and has a special place in my heart.
Loved his writing on Pin Ups especially
Yeah I put it on mine, desu i like it about the same amount as earthling and young Americans but I feel that black star is a better pick for his top five because it’s hood and it’s significant in his career
heroes
ziggy
sts
low
lodger
Station to Station
Low
Outside
Lodger
Blackstar
Based Station to Station featuring in every serious answer so far. That's gotta be Yea Forums's favourite Bowie album overall, right?
top 4 (5 is a wild card from his 70s material):
black star
station to station
scary monsters
heroes
I don't know about 5 but Low is the best
Have you actually listened to at least five of his albums, user?
Nah just looked at the highest rated on RYM and then chose the second highest to seem sophisticated
He's like my 3rd fav artist and I just can't decide.
But the ones I rated highest are Low, Ziggy, Aladdin, Station, Heroes and Blackstar. Low is 5/5 for me rest is 4.5
I mean, It's just that fucking good. I said no order in my answer, but man Station to Station is something else. I said no order in my answer, but in my head I was like: "but station is nr 1 of course"
Heroes
Blackstar
Low
Ziggy Stardust
Station to Station
Station to Station
Diamond Dogs
Lodger
Scary Monsters
Blackstar
Scott 1, 2, 3, 4, and Low
That's a scary appropriate answer.
I love low, but I always felt it was more hyped up than what it really was. That being said, it's still amazing and the best of the trilogy.
It has Station to Station on it, so yes.
Low
Scary Monsters
Blackstar
Station to Station
Heroes
Replace Diamond Dogs with Scary Monsters and this is it
This, but unironically
Based
fuck just found this thread. listening to heroes and crying. why'd he have to leave us here bros ;_; Heroes is the culmination of everything I wish I could say but so much more beautiful than I could ever say it fckkk
Only listened to Blackstar and Low so far, but I really like Blackstar and I don't think that will change unless his other albums are really that much better.
no order:
- Station to Station
- Hunky Dory
- Low
- Young Americans
- Live Santa Monica '72
1. Earthling

>I WAS LOOKING FOR YOUR ASS
What did he mean by this?
I've only fully heard Low, Heroes, Ziggy, and Black Star (as well as a few greatest hits). I actually promised myself to go through the whole discography before the end of the year, is there anything he wrote or contributed to that isn't a main Bowie or Tin Machine album? I know Lust For Life with Iggy and a few tracks like Under Pressure and All The Young Dudes
Tilt
The Drift
Climate of Hunter
Scott 4
Blackstar
Blah-Blah-Blah and The Idiot with Iggy
Transformer with Lou Reed
Baal
Peter and the Wolf
Slaughter on 10th Avenue with Mick Ronson
People from Bad Homes with Ava Cherry and the Astronettes
Station to Station is a bad album with bad songs. His whole Thin White Duke period is shameful
Seething Redditor
Bait
Hunky Dory
Ziggy Stardust
Station to Station
Heroes
Blackstar
Young Americans could've been one of his best if it didn't have those two songs with Lennon
He did that song with Mick Jagger for charity also
Yeah but fuck that song
Yeah, I can't stand it either lol.
Low is the only great Bowie album you can listen from beginning to end without wanting to skip a song
Hunky Dory features his strongest song writing and strongest singing, but it has a couple of shit songs.
Life on Mars, Changes, Oh you pretty things, Quicksand, The Bewlay Brothers and Queen Bitcch are all great songs, and Andy Warhol is good too. It probably has the greatest number of great songs in a Bowie album.
Thanks, I'm gonna have to make a list
Literally anything but Blackstar
drink bleach

ultimate pleb filter
So, at the time of writing, going by the replies in this thread and tallying them, the thread's top nine is:
1. Station To Station
2. Low
3. Heroes
4. Blackstar
5. Scary Monsters tied x Ziggy Stardust
6. Lodger
7. Aladdin Sane x Diamond Dogs
8. Hunky Dory
9. Young Americans x Outside x Heathen
(x denotes a tie)
Black Out and Secret Life of Arabia are the only non instrumentals I like from Heroes.
>OMG BOWIE!!!
Station To Station
Low
Blackstar
Scary Monsters
Outside
fuck you
>tfw not much love for Heathen in the answers
Too many covers on that album for it to be on my top five.
Low has the better second half and Heroes has the better first half. They're about the same quality wise imo
>No "The Man who sold the world"
In no particular order:
Station to Station
Low
Heroes
Lodger
Scary Monsters
1976-1980 was Bowie's peak and that's thanks to the DAM trio and Tony Visconti. Also Brian Eno for the three albums he helped produce.
1. Low
2. Station to Station
3. Heroes
4. Blackstar
5. Aladdin Sane
Fantastic, would kill to hear the rest of the music from these sessions. There are elements of it.
Was never a massive fan of Lodger, though it was improved by Visconti's revised mix. It lacks the coherence and artistic vision of Low and Heroes. I think by this time Bowie had lost interest in the Low/Heroes approach, and he would often take up a particular sound or method for crafting an album for only one or two releases and then move swiftly onwards..
it's literally the other way buddy.
sense of doubt > moss garden > neoköln
name a better trio
