Your ONE favorite band based on their TOTAL catalogue?

Bolt Thrower
Manowar
Anti Cimex

 

I feel like I typed this response.

I'd also echo your Eno choice and probably add in Funkadelic/Parliament, Stooges and MC5.

 

NOFX
I can't help it, I'm a product of my SoCal upbringing. No apologies!

 

Fugazi. Never got into Minor Threat but loved Fugazi.

 

Tinnitus. Always on at my place. Reminds me of Eno.

 

Bowie. His body of work is so eclectic, I could always find something for my desert island mood swings.

 

I think the topic has maybe kinda strayed from the original question? With people talking about "desert island" bands I instantly think Frank Zappa, as that would give me a great deal of variety out of a single "band". But, if considering the context of the original question - which emphasizes "total catalog" - I don't know that I could say Zappa, as there are a lot of albums I don't care for. With that context in mind I would probably have to choose a band with a very small catalog consisting of nothing but hits...and I don't know who that'd be off the top of my head.

 

OK then..........Bowie.

 

Haha - my comment wasn't directed at you Biff! I had noticed a few peeps mentioning the "desert island" idea.
And it made me think that my answers would be wildly different!
