Maybe the most underrated (popular) band of the 70s?
HELL YES

I would have agreed if you had said Boston

One of the worst charts this board has ever made. The metal section especially.
Not to mention the genres being all fucked up.

anything that doesn't sound like generic radio rock is experimental to a normie
Hi /mu/. Rec me some good russian music
the only interesting thing about trotsky (for the most part) were his psychological motivations
as for russian music

Any opinions on them? I mean, I think it's undeniable that the surrounding qualities of an album (visuals, band interviews, beefs, hype, reputation, that sort of thing) affect the way we as an audience think about the music we experience. But how and why? And when are these peripheral qualities a positive influence on the audience when listening to music, and when is it negative?
Certain examples of what I'm talking about:
Album covers, such as
>Nirvana's Nevermind baby cover
>Bowie's...

Album art can set a mood, let the listener know what they're in for, etc. Ultimately the album art is inconsequential to how the music actually sounds and whether you like it or not, but that FIRST listen, when hear the first track. The album cover is in your head, all your expectations are running rampant. The praise you've heard, the negativity you've heard about the album, all that shit can affect your listening experience just as in anything else.
If you hear that one album or other...

>I feel like the ideal way to listen to something is with just the bare minimum in mind: What the album's genre is, the cover art, that's it really.
Really? I prefer to read some positive reviews of the album while listening to it for the first time, maybe some interviews so I can get a better context to understand the album and give it at least some kind of chance.

Nah I can't do that. I'll read reviews after I feel like I get it, or if I want to masturbate over how good the album is. When I really like the album I'll start looking into the backstory.
I remember when I had first listened to Faust's first album, I knew I liked it but I didn't know what I had listened to. Such a bizzarely wonderful piece of music, so I made a thread on /mu/ asking what the hell I just listened to. We were hashing it out, and somebody actually brought up the...

Recently got into The Microphones via you guys, and I have to say it's amazing. The Glow pt. 2 and Mount Eerie are probably both in my top 5 record of all time at this point.
But Phil's released so much over the years, for example, where to even start with Mount Eerie? Been listening a bit to Lost Wisdom, and It's pretty good, but it doesn't feel like a starting point.
Phil thread?
The title track of The Glow Pt. 2 kills me everytime. The segue from the first track to it is fucking crushing
>>60469039
Literally same.
I just started listening to them today from their first album to their last. I give their discography a 9/10, The Glow Pt. 2 being my favorite album.
Right now I'm on Phil's solo project Mount Eerie and on his album Dawn.
Which is stealing 2nd favorite of all his works.
IV. Mt. Eerie on the Mount Eerie album is probably my favourite piece of music ever. The narrative of the whole album is really damn whimsical and bittersweet. That final freak-folky section after Phil's confrontation with death atop the mountain as the pack of vultures that have been following him finally eat him.

Why doesn't anybody on /mu/ like jazz?
>>60468900
I do I love Charles Mingus.
I do but I feel uneducated in the genre so I'm relistening to a bunch of records
Because it's a deprecated genre of shit tones and wank
I MAKE CERTAIN
THAT MY HEAD IS CONNECTED TO MY BODY

What is your guiltiest of guilty pleasures? Only real answers but minimal judging, what will you listen to only with headphones and 25% volume but enjoy every second of it?
I like this song a lot for some reason.

do this many people really favor r plus seven?
>>60468833
It would have been my second choice, but Returnal just barely edges it out for me. It's a damn good album m8
>>60469304
I love it myself, I just wasnt expecting it to get as many votes as it did. Personally:
Replica > Returnal = Garden of Delete > The Fall into Time > R Plus Seven = everything else on Rifts > Reliquary House
