Let It Bleed (1969)
Sticky Fingers (1971)
Exile On Main Street (1972)

4 in a row. What comes close? Can't wait to hear your thoughts!

Let's see... Yeah, that's a pretty incredible run of albums, but I don't have to look far to find a better one...

Sonic Youth:
Bad Moon Rising ('85)
Evol ('86)
Sister ('87)
Daydream Nation ('88)

But maybe that goes without saying in these parts, so... how about:

Velvet Underground:
VU & Nico ('67)
White Light/White Hear ('68)
Velvet Underground ('69)
Loaded ('70)

Is that still just too obvious? Kinda seems like it could be. Well, everyone knows how I feel about the next one, but that's true of SY and the Velvets too, so fuck it.

Kanye West:
The College Dropout ('04)
Late Registration ('05)
Graduation ('07)
808's & Heartbreak ('08)
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy ('10)
Yeezus ('13)

Now I can't stop thinking of album runs that can at least compete with the famous Stones 69-72 output.

Aphex Twin:
Selected Ambient Works 85-92 (1992)
Selected Ambient Works volume II (1994)
... I Care Because You Do (1995)
Richard D. James Album (1996)
Drukqs (2001)
Syro (2014)

Fugazi:
Repeater (1990)
Steady Diet of Nothing (1991)
In on the Kill Taker (1993)
Red Medicine (1995)
End Hits (1998)
The Argument (2001)
*this is a perfect career run of studio albums right here.
