I really don't get the hype around "Loveless".
I keep trying to enjoy it by listening to it every once in a while, but I just can't do it.
Should I give up on it and just move on or will it eventually unflod itself as the masterpiece everyone says it is?
made me remember that I hadn't even rated the album yet
>>60271007
maybe you should listen to what you enjoy
>>60271115
Maybe, but there's something about the magnitude of it's status that makes me really want to get in on the whole thing.
It's the only case where I've got no idea why it's praised so much.
>>60271007
maybe it's just not your thing
I like it because it's pretty neat floating around in a sea of guitars
who would have guessed
>>60271007
Could you explain what you don't like in it, or what it sounds like, anything? I'd like to help you but I need more musical details to work with.
I honestly don't know what I expected
BS&SL: 4.5/5
VU&N: 5/5
LS: 4.5/5
Honestly kind of disappointed that I knew and liked so many of the albums

if there's one thing I hate on RYM it's all the fags who rate all the standard, basic Jazz albums in order to try and look cool without diving into the genre
seeing The Black Saint just looks like Sunbather to me
>>60271257
I'm not too knowledgable about jazz but what makes Black Saint a basic album?
>>60271287
I don't mean the basic Jazz albums are shit. I mean that they're the coffee table jazz albums for people on RYM. They're truly great but they're only used to show off to visitors that they are "cultured."
>>60271307
Okay but I wouldn't say it's jazz's Sunbather. It's the ITAOTS of jazz.
>>60271328
Sigh
I didn't mean that Black Saint was Sunbather. I'm saying that seeing albums like Kind of Blue, Bitches Brew, A Love Supreme, etc. in a high rating is like seeing Sunbather in there.
>>60271339
I don't feel like it is though. Sunbather isn't viewed the same way as the jazz essentials. Whatever though. It's not really a topic worth discussing.
>>60271378
Let me put it this way:
you see a person who has Sunbather rated as a 4.5 or 5.0.
What do you think will happen when you ask them "Oh hey, I see you like Black Metal! Who are your favorite artists?"
>>60271391
If that's how you view it, I'd say that The Epic would be more appropriate than the jazz essentials. Mingus, Davis, Coltrane, the list goes on... is more like saying Burzum, Mayhem, Bathory, the list goes on...
