a) White Album isn't that good, tons of filler. It's the poor man's Exile on Mainstreet when you want a good rock double album.

>>
>>64591358
It's probably this trio from Genesis. All three different enough in styles, yet at the same time all three are of high quality.

A personal favorite is Morbid Angel's first three releases:

>Abominations Of Desolation
>Altars Of Madness
>Blessed Are The Sick


Though I think if the new Swans album is anywhere near as good as The Seer or To Be Kind they'll have the new best trio of releases.

I am starting to realize that GoD was too good for OPN fans. They can only handle good samples (Replica) or good synthwork (R+7) instead of having it all come together so that he finally has an album that has more than just one aspect to it.

I lean towards Adore over Gish, but I could see either. My thing is that Adore's best moments are absolutely astounding, in fact some of the most touching music they've ever done, but the rest of the album is just so...meh. I feel that Gish has its highlights too but Adore's strongest points are stronger.

It's OPN's best album by far. If it isn't that great of an album then OPN isn't that great of an artist.

It's too energetic. Daniel is best when he's doing long synth pieces but he's been going entirely in the wrong direction. He can't let any part of his songs develop because of how fast-paced they are.

Dead on with Tom Waits, but Green and Out of Time were significant steps down for R.E.M.
>>
>>64595469
It Was Hot is a mediocre album when compared to the other two, since it has no general direction or underlying themes senpai. It's actually (if you count his transition to ME) The Glow Pt.2 > Mount Eerie > No Flashlight.
>>
>>64598818
I feel like it has the underlying theme of the sea, waves and oceans. Like, it's pretty thematically tied as every lyric on the album has to do with that.
I also think the songs on it was hot are really solid all the way through. One of my favorite albums.
