Sure, it's 8 years old but I think it's easily one of those classic albums that was way ahead of it's time.

What album do you cherish /mu/? What album do you wish you could share with every other /mu/tant but never thought you could?

HERE'S YOUR CHANCE NIGGA

This is my favorite album of all time, but /mu/ might actually hate it. I've only really met one anon on here that's liked it. It's got such great flow, and I feel like the tracks are very personal and strong.

The Conet Project

For some reason, I really love to listen to idiosyncratic sounds, and 'numbers stations' are pretty much the most repetitive thing you can listen to while keeping it extremely interesting.

I love this record in a lo-fi kind of way. It's hard to describe why I love it.

>>52047652

To be honest, it actually was the album that I first listened to that really branched out from the usual stuff a semi-antisocial freshman in high school would listen to. My friend recommended it to me, and I loved Streetlight ever since. I didn't get super deep into ska, other than the big names, but it showed me a world of music that I never knew existed. From there, I've expanded much further, but this album will always be one of my favorites. I honestly think it's so well done and fairly innovative. Their live shows are incredible. I think they deserve more recognition on this board, and should not just be labeled as the usual ska that is immediately written off.

I'm never get to discuss this album with anyone because most people I know who are familiar with the band have only heard/prefer their newer, pop orientated albums, which kinda sucks. I'm not surprised that it isn't mentioned much given that the majority of the board is American and the album was UK/Japan only(?) but for what it is, it's a solid album.
