Just realized Scaruffi gives lots of 9s, so this is probably harder than I thought. Its Uncle Meat by Frank Zappa.
7,5

second favorite album is 6/10
6/10, hes not really a fan of flylo

>all these scaruffians
I think it was the Scaruffi rating that gave this album meme status. I understand the criticism: no 9's all millennium, 1 9.5 for the history of music, then suddenly out of nowhere a 10 for such a politically divisive record? OBND is, to be fair, spectacularly flawed: it hews too close to its obvious inspirations, Trout Mask Replica, Kaoru Abe's Winter 1972, and Stravinsky's Rite of Spring to name a few; some parts, most notably the 9 minute modal jazz fugue 'If My Truck Could Talk', are ambitious to the point of onanism; the dynamics, from -25 dBA RMS for tracks on end to the sound-barrier-breaking cathartic noise tempest on 'Two Night Town: Part II (the Second Night)', make it no less easy for ears more accustomed to modern production styles. I would argue that it is precisely these flaws that give OBND it's effervescent je-ne-sais-pais. From Aldean's liner notes to Burnin' It Down, the centerpiece of OBND:
"Suppose that a man leaps out of a burning building and lands on a bystander in the street below. Now, make the burning building be Europe, and the luckless man underneath be the Palestinian Arabs. Is this a historical injustice? Has the man below been made a victim, with infinite cause of complaint and indefinite justification for violent retaliation? My own reply would be a provisional 'no,' but only on these conditions. The leaper must make such restitution as he can to the man who broke his fall, and must not pretend that he never even landed on him. And he must base his case on the singularity and uniqueness of the original leap. It can't, in other words, be 'leap, leap, leap' for four generations and more. The people underneath cannot be expected to tolerate leaping on this scale and of this duration, if you catch my drift. In Palestine, tread softly, for you tread on their dreams. And do not tell the Palestinians that they were never fallen upon and bruised in the first place.
He gave Like Clockwork a 4/10...
>8/10
Fuck. Yes.
Ween - Quebec: 3/10
FUCK YOU!!!!
6.5, pleasantly surprised
A 10! I'm sort of a drone though.
Unrated
>>65441628
It's a stellar album, of course
Blues for the Red Sun: 8/10
Considering his rating distribution I'm pretty pleased with this, though it's dumb that he rates it as his second favourite metal album of all time. Kyuss isn't metal, and if it were it would be the best.
>>65441708
He also gave whitechocolatespaceegg a 7.5 so I was kind of surprised by that too. I think that album is really underrated. Same with Whip-Smart.
>>65441629
>Ween - Quebec:

9/10
Try to guess.
Hint: the genre is punk (I'm not including the subgenre or any additional genre tags)
>>65441822
It used to be a 3/10 according to Wayback
>8/10
>>65441754
He actually had whitechocolatespaceegg as an 8 before he changed it
>>65441857
Le Pop Group - Y
>>65441898
Really? Interesting. I think white is so good. I love the track "Perfect World". It's like so simple and haunting.
>>65441898
Yeah it is the pop group. I don't get the hate for it here
favorite artist is RHP/SKM, and he gave Down Colourful Hill a 9/10.
He just rates music based on how original it is. im sure he loves some "6/10" albums
confirmed bc we both have italian surnames
>>65442005
They're fine I guess but I'd rather just put on Talking Heads desu
7.5
>>65442005
Literally my favorite post-punk, (or punk in general) album

I don't mean to be butthurt but what a contrarian fuckhead. He tries to be "critical" but instead just plays a game called "Let's give good albums lower scores."

Rockets to Russia?
>>65446274
What album is it?

>Long Season-unrated
>Spiderland-9/10
>Kid A-6.5/10
>Nebraska-6.5/10
Not sure how to feel about it overall, some accurate ratings and some shit ones.
>>65446498
Cocteau Twins and Radiohead have better albums than the ones you posted
>>65446535
No, no they don't, at least not for me.
Scaruffi may have reacted some higher, but those are my subjective favorites. And I would also say that they are alps probably the objective best.
he hasnt rated it
>>65439155
>9/10
he's actually one of the few people to recognize this for what it is
>>65446647
Accurate rating
>tfw scaruffi has never mentioned your favorite band
>>65446647
i realy want to like this album but the sex noises put me off, like nah mang i dont wanna hear that shit i wanna hear music
>>65446998
just roll with it, it's very theatrical and over the top
try not to limit yourself with preconceived notions of what an album is supposed to be like and it will probably start to click for you once you open up to it
you should be thinking about what it IS doing rather than what it's SUPPOSED to be doing
>>65441857
Gun Club
>>65439155
7.5/10, but only because the 2nd disc wasn't good.
Church Gone Wild would easily be a Scaruffi 9 without it
>>65439155
Fuck Scaruffi, is there anyone who still read his shit?
8/10
Guess the album. Clue, the artist worked with loads of big names up to the current decade
10
>>65446647
Gotta love Type O, amazing band. Shame he shat on their other albums. World Coming Down is my fav from them.
>mfw Scaruffi dismisses your favorite band as bland pop rock
>>65447979
Yes
>8/10
Should have gave it a nine and an eight to Not Available.
>>65441518
Pretty good. How much do you think he will rate the new Twenty One Pilots? I'm betting on a 9.5/10
>>65439155
scarufi a shit
>>65440327
Korn's self titled is GOAT. It's just that it got nu metal in the commercial spotlight so everyone hates it
>>65446954
