>alvin row is possibly the greatest song of all time
just because people tell you to think that doesn't mean you actually have to think that anon

i understand that it's a popular opinion but i think its pretty justified
for what its worth i think april and the phantom is almost on par with it
>Spirit They're Gone
>not accessible as all fuck
*fridge noises*

It's just the first track that turns people off
>Oww my ears!!! It's just noise
>>64296845
its not honestly, the title track and untitled are pretty abrasive the first few listens
>>64296845
yo this is like a pop song they play on normie radio. I heard it at walmart.

>mfw I heard Frownland at CVS
>>64296857
what exactly would that entail

>He still thinks this isn't the greatest album ever
This for me definitely. I listened to it around the same time I was listening to animals, meddle, and the wall and I thought it was passable. I decided to give it another listen on LSD and it was probably one of the greatest experiences i've had to date, it completely changed my perspective on the album and I now consider it to be their best hands down. Syd Barrett really knew how to construct a song. There's not one bad song on the album or song worth skipping its all golden

It's amazing isn't it
>Shopping at mall
>Mfw they are playing untitled in one of the stores
That clerk was the absolute madman. People were visibly annoyed and would leave the store. 10/10 day

Love this album as well. It clicked on my second listen I still remember it exactly. I was listening to it waiting for the bus home after I had an exam I think. Was my first time listening with headphones, when I heard the album for first time it was just through speakers while not really paying attention to it.
As soon as I heard the piano part of Penny Dreadfuls I almost broke into tears, it made me feel melancolic as fuck. Love this album ever since.

Yeah senpai I remember the time I went to a party with my normie friends and they all turned the fuck up to Untitled

one of my faves, april and the phantom is something else. /mu/ acts dumb about this album "its not even that accessible". Ya because this is just like MPP in terms of accessibility. I suppose they say that because its a pop album at its core.

this, holy shit. I never cared for pink floyd and my friend told me about this album and told me to listen if I liked psych music. Didn't really click right away but one day I heard Matilda Mother. god damn. The most fun and whimsical psych albums ever imo.

This actually clicked for the first time family. I had been turned off to guitar based music (because of dad rock/butt rock stuff, i didnt know what else existed beyond that) at the time and I joined some shoegaze fb group because I heard about diiv. Someone posted to here knows when. Opened a whole new world for me.

I think being on /mu/ shifts our perspective on what is and isn't accessible. I showed my sister MPP and they hated it, thought it was super weird. I considered that to be an album that I'd play for people who weren't "into" music, but apparently they don't even like that. I'm not even sure where the threshold of accessibility lies for normal people anymore. I'd like to imagine that we can draw it up to open mindedness.
I first listened to this and wasn't sure and about a month later I felt the urge to listen to it and God damn it's good
