Between studio, lives etc. I have too many to want to rank all of them.

Kobaïa is my favourite Magma album. 1001° Centigrades would be my second favourite studio album, followed by Attahk. Wurdah Itah is up there too if it counts.

I'll list the first seven to spring to mind:

1. Kobaïa (don't think Magma ever bettered their debut, amazing start)
2. Rétrospective Vol. 1 & 2 (I love Theusz Hamtaahk on this and prefer this MDK to the studio)
3. 1001° Centigrades (a masterful follow-up album)
4. BBC 1974 Londres (love this version of T.H. as much as on Retrospective, sometimes more)
5. Live (Hhai) (a wonderful live and good place for many to start with Magma imo)
6. Attahk (makes me think of my trip to Mexico -- I love this album more than many and it is one I return to often. Still sounds fresh to these ears)
7. Ëmëhntëhtt-Ré (of the modern ones, I much prefer this to KA)

List the Magma albums you have in order of preference. For me, starting with my current favourite album:

1: Kobaïa

2: 1001° Centigrades

3: Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh

4: Attahk

5: Üdü Ẁüdü

6: K.A

I confess that the reason I started this thread is because I am finding it difficult to contain myself about how impressed I am with Magma's debut album. And it's not like I'm new to the music of Magma, making Kobaïa all the more impressive. This one really hits the sweet spot.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
