Various Musicians Slaughter Classic Albums

generalizations*

Weren't you just getting on me about not knowing anything about the band and that was the problem? Now its I didn't critique every individual track? I'm sorry but critiquing every track is kind of a boring review especially when I have similar thoughts on them all which usually involves plant sounding fucking annoying or the music being your typical classic cock rock anthem or just some annoying acoustic driven song like Going to California.

Shes goodd, theres a link to her album, she has a new one I still havn't got yet though i'm going to grab it later.
 
hell i wouldn't be surprised to find out it was just Patton fooling around and successfully trying to find out if he could emulate the sound of a nasty dump with his mouth. hahaha
 
Nick Drake has always had a cult following here in the UK. Maybe because he is quintessentially English in terms of his delivery and melancholy. I personally am not a big fan. I like some tracks of his. He could play guitar, he just played it unusually according to his music producer JOE BOYD.

BBC Inside Out - Fallen Star
 
Personally I would put it in the "stupendous" category. "Ether" is among one of my favorite postpunk songs and it's in good company on the album.
 
actually i love the 'secret song' in the middle of 'Carry Stress in the Jaw' but like Janszoon said, it's by far the weakest Bungle disc (at least to my ears). my Marquee Moon comment was a reference to the first page of this topic hehe i chose a classic album that needed to be checked off more than listened to as opposed to the modern equivalent (them crooked vultures).

personally i think California is Bungle's best offering.

i'll see about making more sacred burgers when i get home from work tonight, depenRAB on how badly the day staff pisses me off with their inability to fill out timesheets properly hahaha
 
I agreed with everything Ronson said up until this point. Eminem, WTF?



This basically told me everything I needed to know. Some shitty British Indie band that no one will even remeraber in 4 years shitting all over an album that's been a classic for 40 years.




I like Is This It? a lot, but is it even really a classic to anyone other than NME readers or something? Battles dude is right about all their personal history, but who really cares? This is a pretty fun garage rock album that didn't really change anyone's life, and that's that. Also, I'm pretty sure most of the people who do love this album won't really care that they're a bunch of rich kiRAB or that Casablancas is an asshole or whatever.



I like Franz Ferdinand's first album a bunch too, but fuck this guy. The Strokes, for real? The Strokes are basically a gigantic VU/Television hybrid, and all they're doing is aping them, not making it better or whatever Kapranos thinks. Seriously, I'm not even sure what he's thinking right here.



Speaking of non-classics, this? Funeral isn't even a fucking classic, but now apparently this is? I agree with most of this assessment anyway. I tend to sort of flip-flop on their first album, sometimes I like it a lot, sometimes I hate it, but Neon Bible sucked with the exception of like, two songs. Also, people are always saying how much "Indie fans" or whoever love this band, but the only person I know who loves them only loves them out of some weird sense of hometown pride, but aren't only two of these guys from Montreal anyway?

So the Arcade Fire don't even deserve to be written about is what I'm trying to say.



The Hold Steady really annoyed the shit out of me until I saw them live. They were really fun, and I don't really care about the Doors, so that's all I'm really going to say.

Well, I guess I should probably point out that he's totally right about Doors and parties and shit, they're pretty much the pivotal "I'm a teenager and I think I have good taste in music because I like a really classic band" band.



I agree that this is their worst album, but who really cares what the guy from the 1990s thinks?
 
:( I do agree it's almost weird for the sake of being weird and pretty masturbatory, but I still like it. :D It definitely came as a shock when it came out, and took some time to get used to but it's a fun listen once in a while...and quite funny. But no doubt I prefer the debut, and I don't consider Disco Volante THE Bungle album. Only avant-garde music snobs would say something like that. And I guess they're entitled to their opinions too.

Desert Search for Techno Allah is awesome. As is Ma Meeshka Mow Skwoz.

I like it. Take back what you said! :bringit:
 
I never get to praise a band I like, because you, crow and the gang will already be dissing them and picking fights with everyone. I simply get caught up in your bait.

And this is funny coming from you. Because you never have anything positive to say about anything.
 
*Looks at sig.*

I like Pavement. But Malkmus really was a prick who had nothing better to do than diss every band that was making better music than them at the time.

Corgan owned him hard with his rebuttal too.
 
That pretty much summerizes everything wrong with this thread.

But when I noticed that Urban made it, I was expecting to be annoyed. :laughing:
 
In the thread about Man Man

On someone asking if Black Moth Super Rainbow were any good


In the Henry Cow thread


In the Spoon thread


In the Drive Like Jehu thread


In the Devandra Banhart thread


Defending 'Classic Rock' in the White Stripes thread


And thats just in the past few days
 
Did that guy from Franz Ferdinand say The Strokes were better than Television o.O

And how is Freak Out! nihilistic? Zappa was always far from nihilism.. and I could see how one might make the argument that The Doors s/t is more nihilistic than VU... if you're in the habit of skipping the last two tracks. I mean, they basically invented noise rock there. Half of these reviewers are just trying too hard to be controversial and come off just sounding pretentious.
 
What an insightful review, must have took you a whole minute.

Page didn't steal riRAB either, all they really stole were lyrics, and wouldn't you know it, LYRICS ARE THEIR ****ING WEAKPOINT.

You know nothing about this band, it's not that you dislike them as much as you are completely ingorant of everything about them.
