The Explain Why You Like This Album ('cause i don't understand) Thread

[Drak O]

What Crimson have you heard?

Anything from the John Wetton era? Cobain had nothing but positive things to say about Red.

 

[Traigh]

Yeah you're right I can hardly move in the Can thread for MGMT & Animal Collective fans stinking out the place.


:laughing:

It's my favorite album of theirs. The intrumental parts are amazing, and Welcome To The Machine is one of my favorite songs.


Oh, and:

....I know a lot of people love the talking heaRAB, so I'll try to be respectful. This album has some solid grooves(crosseyed and painless for one)....the difference between this and parliament though is parliament sounRAB like they're actually having fun.Yeah the main culprit in my heavy dislike of the heaRAB is david byrne...it's like having to listen robin williams or a mad scientist front a funk band....It's like your listening to a solid afro-beat album but having your anthropology prof talk over it.

...Yeah I'll admit that the music is kind of interesting and they're pretty innovative...there's just such a heavy prescence of art-school pretension...courtesy of david byrne, that drives me away.

"once in a lifetime" is the most cringe inducing song ever.

Wow I thought you were kidding at first about not liking Pink Moon, it's one of my favorite's. Although, Five Leaves Left is far and away my favorite Nick Drake album. One of my favorite artists.

 

[tess489]

Honestly, I've never even heard of it. What kind of music is it?

 

[hottie_loveableqt]

Heh, you pretty much described the reason they appeal to me right there.

 

[xprincessx]

porcupine tree sucks dont do that.

 

[mrmatthew]

It's a major grower. Instead of listening to the entire album, just listen to "Emily" a few times until you 'get' it. That's what I did and now I like the whole album. It all takes time though.

I actually love the guitar work. Marr is one of my favorite guitarists along with Peter Buck who had a similiar style in his early days (arpeggio picking). There's no accounting for taste I guess.

 

[M3x!TaL!aN0]

I know what you're saying. Music wise I think there are other (punk) banRAB who had a larger impact in that time like The Clash and The Ramones. Malcolm McLaren thought out The Sex Pistols like a 90s boy band. They did have a huge big impact image wise.

 

[Ben Robertson]

I even remeraber the interviewer being nervous about interviewing Mayhem:laughing:

 

[Clikc_speed]

songwriting is more than just lyrics. for loveless the lyrics are mostly unintelligible anyways.

 

[Tricia]

Maybe, or maybe Pink Floyd are just overrated and quite dull.

 

[Ali F0 $ho :]]

Eh, not necessarily. I just "got" them earlier this summer.

...what's with the early 80's and people that sing like mad scientists?:thomas dolby, devo, b-52's...etc..to give him credit thomas dolby actually was a scientist.
