It has an air of pretentiousness those albums lack and isn't as experimental or groundbreaking.

Because it was made by a woman.
Nico was described by some friends and colleagues as racist. Her friend Danny Fields, the American journalist who helped her sign to Elektra Records, described her as "Nazi-esque", saying: "Every once in a while there'd be something about Jews and I'd be, 'But Nico, I'm Jewish,' and she was like 'Yes, yes, I don't mean you.' She had a definite Nordic Aryan streak, [the belief] that she was physically, spiritually and creatively superior", a view she appears to have continued to maintain throughout her later years. According to Fields, Nico once attacked a mixed-race woman in a restaurant with a smashed wineglass, saying "I hate black people". During a performance in Berlin, the audience rioted after Nico performed the German national anthem "Deutschlandlied", including a verse omitted since 1945 for its nationalist associations.[23]

>"attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed"
It's a word that can be used to describe many things.

Damn, is it summer already?
no one is open about liking goth(ish) music anymore.
It's better as a well kept secret anyway, Nico is a profound source of comfort to me.
Desertshore is way less acessible than any of those other albums, plus it's less well-known
>>65390659
I wouldn't say it's less accessible than Lorca and maybe Laughing Stock.

LS is smooth as fuck. Desertshore is much more tense and dissonant, despite being technically more orthodox.

The fact that she disliked black people is a totally admirable feature of her personality
