>>60807795
Henri Chopin - Audiopoems
>>60807795
Kid A comes close, but just because of their fans, music really isn't ''pretentious'' you want tank
>>60807795
Fanisk - Noontide
>>60807808
Oddly enough I really like that alum but I see where you're coming from
>>60807795

I've grown to like it though, but maybe I just have autism.
>>60807848
>bandcamp has contributed nothing to the music world

Hated pretty much every second of this.
>>60807872

>>60807946

ITT: I just learned what pretentious means
any arcade fire album, this one soulsavers album, and of course kid a.
>>60807913
I mean kinda, but it just means you think they're affecting a sense of importance.
I like The Ark Work, but I can also acknowledge it's pretense
>>60807906
>>60807795
These and any Smiths album desu.
Even though I like Morrissey a lot, I just can't stand his pretentiousness sometimes.
>>60808035
the pretentiousness is warranted here
That one with the naked dude from this year. But that's probably unavoidable I guess if you're trying to write an album like that.
>>60808015

>>60808125
KID A
IS
A GOOD ALBUM
>>60808141
is it though
>>60808072
Pretentious is not synonymous with bad, nor are you required to think a piece of art is bad when recognizing it's pretentious. Pretentious is defined as anything that is created with the pretense of creating a specific reaction. Kid A is pretentious because it wasn't made completely out of inspiration of sound but rather to break free of the mold of The Bends and OK Computer. A lot of the sounds on Kid A are created to shock listeners expecting OK Computer.
Probably this
Amazing though, in my top 20
>>60808119
You might be right, but it sounds like they know they are making shit music and keep on chugging away it. Literally only possible redeemable part of this shitfest is the lyrics.
Just my two cents though, if you like it have a good time mayne.
>>60808035

>>60807795
this is not pretentious at all
it's just a dude complaining

do you even know what that word means?
is this album pretentious too?
>>60808436
no because it's pop
>>60808171
Wasn't this not even intended to be released?
Doesn't that kind of cut the pretense in half?
Or is it the concept of waiting until they'd forgotten about it that's pretensious?
>>60808015
great meme haha
>>60808015
how are all arcade fire albums pretentious
>>60808035

>>60808665
