Nice ratings. MBV is a fantastic album. And Portishead has some great stuff.
>>61225977
any standout tracks from that ethereal shroud album?
Working on my 2015 backlog
>>61225941
Wew The Aristocrats and C Horse fan
>>61225882
Dummy was such a boring album try this
>>61226028
Whole thing is pretty good, and consists of 3 songs. Although Look Upon the Light is my favorite.
>>61226051
same here gotta get my best of list done eh
>>61225882
I want to like Trip Hop but it's just not that interesting
Have to listened to Maxinquaye?
>>61226093
For fucks sake Arch, stop

How does it feel to have bad taste in music? Really, I'm curious.
>>61226195
>>61226139
I'd switch around Pomegranates and Space is only Noise ratings, besides that you're pretty spot on.
>>61226139
Undun's pretty strong
>>61226051
you had all of november to get around to them and you didn't :o
>>61226184
That coneheads album is probably the worst thing ever desu
>>61226195
Post your favourite swans album fag
>>61226195
Could you tell me what you disagree with in my ratings?
>>61226235
I prefer Throbbing Gristle, a band with actual talent. Though I will say I do like Jarboes cover of Love will tear us apart. She's the real talent of Swans.
>>61226226
Sorry, I rated Lianna a 3/5
>>61226279
kek
>>61226163
I think it's one of the best Trip Hop albums - better than anything Massive Attack at least
>>61226093
>>61226122
Is this the most ridiculous attempt at samefagging I've ever seen?
>>61226227
I didn't do NBBMN because it's for faggots

>>61226226
Yeah I'm not big on ambient generally so I feel like I need to watch the accompanying film for Pomegranates to hold my attention
>>61226357
missing out
>>61225882
Portishead is kind of overrated in my opinion
>>61225941
Nice Schulze and Tangerine Dream
>>61226051
Akhlys and Mgla are pretty good. Leviathan is ok
>>61226093
What's your favorite Fugazi album?
>>61226139
I like Nicolas Jaar a lot. Undun is my favorite from The Roots.
>>61226195
>>61226375
fuck off
>>61226463
Probably 13 songs, but i haven't heard anything from them that really blew me out of the water
>>61226279
The edge
>>61226390
A lot of people say that, but honestly, I think the release holds on its own without the help of the film. It's probably my AOTY.
>>61226279
i really hope this is bait. no one could actually think this right?
>>61226279
throbbing gristle is horrible
>>61226835
>OPN is a 3/5
> Holter gets a 3.5/5
explain?
>>61226858
Some people just aren't intellectually capable of understanding Jarboe and recognizing she is the reason Swans were so good.
>>61226881
Congrats you have the lowest IQ in this thread!
>>61226835
>Desertshore is a 7
>Milk-Eyed Mender is a 9
Are you ashamed?
>>61226908
a better question: how the fuck did joanna newsom get a 4.5/5?
>>61226949
Desertshore is a meme
>>61226908
havent loved an opn album since replica. i felt garden of delete was too disjointed
>>61226920
top kek. throbbing gristle apologists always make me laugh
>>61226949
not at all!
>>61227108
>top kek. throbbing gristle apologists always make me laugh
>this is coming from someone who thinks Joanna Newsom and Sonic Youth are worthy of anything more than 2 stars
How are your first 2 days on /mu/?
>>61227176
>Joanna Newsom and Sonic Youth under 4 stars
>ever
wtfbbq
>>61227176
i honestly just feel bad for you that you get up every day and tell yourself throbbing gristle is a good band
>>61227235
>good band
Great band.
>>61227261
all of these are rated exactly 1.5* too high
>>61226278
>Replying to that
Jesus christ, you tripfags are sensitive
>>61227339
I'm really just curious. Was he upset about the albums I rated, or how I rated them? I guess I'll never know.
>>61226195
>>61226279

Why do you care
He was just baiting in the first place, for a reaction
I swear tripfags are retarded as hell
>>61227451
Idk man I'm on Christmas break I have nothing to do all day
>Rating 5 albums in one day
>>61227648
>not batch-rating every few days
>>61227648
how else da fuq you gonna hear old music and still keep up with new music
>>61227648
the average pop album is maybe 30-40 minutes? so that's what, 3 hours of listening to music? not ridiculous at all
>>61227751
> Rating albums on first listen
>>61227648

I didn't like Darkest Before Dawn (though the film was cool) and I can't comment on the others

I have a l i t e r a l degree to say how smart I am
>>61228607
Are you one of those autists who rates albums he doesn't like 0.5
You all have shit taste !
>>61228680
Nice Pom score. Did you see the film with it or did you just listen to it by itself?
>>61229255
Pleb music is fun desu
Portishead's self titled is really good and worth listening to! Don't skip over it.
i dont get it are some of you just discovering these extrememly well known albums? or did you just get rym? i seriously dont understand how you could have fucking portishead rated this week in 2015.
>>61225882
Black Gives Way To Blue is still in my head... I want it out

There are many acclaimed albums people sleep on
I haven’t listened to a full Beatles and Black Sabbath album yet
>>61228607
Er, what's wrong with liking albums
>>61229305
I've been planning to watch it on a rainy night. Haven't really had the chance to though :^/
>>61230903
albums i like get anywhere from a 2-5. adjust your scale so 2.5 is the mean, median and average.
>>61230170
Always skipped over them because I don't like trip hop. It was a mistake though, because I love them now. I don't see what's so hard to understand about people skipping over some albums. Not every human can listen to every acclaimed album ever created.
>>61230170
Not everyone feels the obligation to studiously worship the canon
>>61231331
ram one star? is it that bad?
>>61231439
not bad, just not my thing
>>61229174
I don't think I have any 0.5 albums, but I don't have any 5.0 albums either. gotta refine your tastes and change your frame of reference to account for every rating available. 3.5 stars isn't average, and it isn't supposed to be.
>>61231331
Rowe and Tilbury are always great together
>>61230365
Jesus, was it that bad?
>>61230690
The Necks are pretty damn good

Never realized how truly fuckin mediocre this Biggie album really is, just so inconsistent and lacking any cohesion.
Been working through my library alphabetically by album, throwing in random things here and there. Just got an account a few months ago, its fun!
hi
Go ahead and laugh.
>>61231856
Thanks for reminding me to finally listen to Hansson and Karlsson
Your taste seems fine, I guess
>>61231742
That Biggie album is about 1.5 stars too high. It is complete garbage
>>61231907
Yeah, I just finished listening to them after someone mentioned them in another thread. 1st half was great, second half seemed like they couldn't figure out what to do next after Tax Free.
>>61233267
why kid a 1 star?
>>61233405
because he's trying to be cool
>>61233267
baka, I still don't get the hype behind captain beyond
>>61233405
>>61233417
because it's overrated. it doesn't even know what it wants to be. it's just another 'rock bands goes electronic'. nothing really special about it at all, in fact I think it sucks
>>61233428
it's awesome. sounds kinda like Deep Purple but prog. Myopic Void is amazing

>>61231598
The album's production quality was disgusting. It all sounded so heavy, but not because it's a grunge album or anything, it's because of how they produced it. Everything sounded like each of the track channeled had the bass EQ raised as high as it could possibly go so they could win in a loudness war or something. Cantrell's voice hasn't aged very well and DuVall's vocals get incredibly boring after a couple tracks, it all sounds so flat. Like, he sounds kinda like Layne, but yet the vocals are only delivered in this "talky-singing" kind of style, there's barely any strain or risk put on them, it's so safe and uninteresting, it even gets a little annoying as it goes.
The songs themselves are barely interesting or adventurous, it's almost like they wanted to please EVERYBODY who liked Alice In Chains by making a bunch of tracks that covered every style they explored throughout their career. Your Decision and When The Sun Rose Again sound like scraps from Jar Of Flies, A Looking In View and Check My Brain feel like they could've gone on Dirt, Last Of My Kind and Lesson Learned sound like they were lifted off of Facelift, and then there's Acid Bubble, which sounds like it would've gone on their self-titled album. But even then, they don't sound right. Layne is gone, Cantrell's voice has gotten as bad as Page Hamilton's and DuVall isn't that good of a replacement, so the magic these songs could've had are completely gone.
The only things from this album I found even remotely interesting were When The Sun Rose Again (which wasn't as hard to sit through as the rest of the album since there weren't any chugging, headache inducing guitars like the rest of the album), and Acid Bubble and A Looking In View's song structures. Despite the production and vocals ruining these two songs, they are structured very interestingly and I wish these were made before Layne kicked the bucket.
I really do not like this album, I might even write a review
:)
Didn't finish Lateralus yet because I can't find any way to get it (they don't digitally sell their music) and was tired of listening to a Youtube version. RATM has such cringe-worthy high schooler lyrics about fighting the man that I can't understand how it is even half as acclaimed as it is. Tom Morello is solely responsible for those 2.5 stars.
>>61235567
>Lateralus
Someone shared it not too long ago. Check the archive.
>>61235076
in short, fuck the loudness war
>>61235076
damn, that's some intense writing

What's so b80 about it?

That Beauty Pill album is so fucking good.
