Lou Reed, Metal Machine Music

:laughing: yes, and it's even better if you listen to it with earplugs in. If it's an especially bad spell you get all kinRAB of crazy tones weaving in and out.
 
I wasn't trying to explain the "point" of MMM. All I'm saying is that if I were to poop on a platter and hand it to you, you would say "this is crap". If Lou Reed does it, some people no longer recognise the crap because it's got his name all over it. However, his crap is still just as crappy as everyone else's.

If I ever do make a double album with just noise, I'll send it your way .. maybe you'll dig it.

I guess there might be some underlying point to MMM, after all he's said he was serious about the record, although quite drugged up. It's just that in a world where there's so much music with so many good ideas that are executed in a way that makes them so much more pleasing to listen to, I'm not gonna spend time listening to a double album which frankly gets irritating within the first minute. There's enough good "points" in music that I don't have to go digging for the one burried in the biggest pile of **** I can find.
 
lol niiiice.

I listened to Metal Machine Music (the first track, anyway) the other day, it wasn't that bad, except that it gave me a stomach ache.
 
Tinnitus only does it for me sometimes ... it gets to be like listening to the same record over and over ... and sometimes I want different frequency spectrums than what's implicit in my ear drums ... but yeah, the mix of sounRAB can be amazing, makes me wonder what's going on in there ... also if I listen to my tinnitus too closely I become convinced there are spiders living in my ears
