ITT: Albums that have made you have a genuine spiritual moment
More magical than spiritual, though
Seeing them live, too.
a lovely humanist i-wanna-hang-out-with-cool-friends-forever sort of spiritual moment
Does realizing that i'm not a man and never will be count?
MBDTF
Does possession count as a spiritual moment?
>>65478286
such a great driving track
>>65478385
yuppie
>>65478547
without question
>>65478680
I don't understand this albums popularity, it's obviously not their best work
hey
>>65478691
>>65478286
same tho
>>65478547
>tfw tripping acid to this while in a movie theater
>tfw I WILL MURDER YOU
My friends don't believe the end is coming. That's okay, because I know it is.
listening to this while stoned through the couch caused me to die and see the earth from heaven itself.
>>65478716
Really? It's my favorite from their discography, but all their albums are incredible. What do you think is their best work?
>>65478729
same
>>65478776
F#a#infinity will always be their best work imo, but Allelujah! gives me the most thrills
>>65478733
What movie theatre were you at that this was playing?
>>65478409
This one fucked me up
>>65478841
F#A# and Slow Riot are definitely their best, but all of the their albums are great
A friend ask me how depression/anxiety feels and I showed him this album.
>>65478910
The one that let me wear headphones, luv.
pic related and >>65479619 have done it for me
>tfw rather simple instrumental arrays evolve over time in a majestic crescendo that leaves you demolished and wanting more
>tfw BRING THE SUUUUN
>tfw TOUSSAIIINNNNTTTTTTT
>tfw We FUCK
>tfw to be kind ends and you feel like listening to it again but you're exhausted beyond measure
Feels good man.
The Mansion is definitely the most disturbing song I've ever heard
Last track made me stop fearing death when I heard it while coming down from an intense LSD trip
>>65479534
>It felt good to be alone
>He wished he was drunk
>He thought about something he said
>And how stupid it had sounded
I relate so hard ;_;
specifically "to be of use"
I cannot find a single copy of this on the internet, but it's so damn masterful.
>>65479829
Why exactly? It's a bit dark and poetic but I don't think disturbing
flood
though considering how fucking depressed i was i guess carly rae jepsen could have made me feel something "profound" at the time
>>65481047
do you not know what the archive is?
>>65481534
think he meant physical mang
>>65481551
Oh. My bad
Listening to this while reading the diary he wrote while living in the cottage in Norway was pretty special to me.
Especially the lines
>Climb over the hill to where you hope to find nothing
>Find it teeming with gold in the light
>Be disappointed and glum
>Beat yourself like a drum
>Yell out, "Who stole my silent night?"
>>65481623
shit man, I know how you feel.
I was on a 28 hour train ride once to upstate New York. Shit sucked. I learned that I cannot fall asleep on trains, so I stayed up through the night listening to music. As dawn came around, I put on Dawn. Beautiful experience in a shitty day.
>>65478286
Songs are pretty trippy, chill, and i guess tropical in general.
Spiritual moments didnt really come from album, since i just put it on as noise when i was meditating.
>>65479534
Don Aman is a masterpiece
>>65480861
This
>>65478641

>>65478799
get real, get right with the lord!
>>65478729

>>65478286
>>65478361

>>65478680

>>65481534
what is the archive? I'm very new to /mu/
'The Donor' in particular.
>having a spiritual moment
>from popular music
For fuck's sake, grow up. You're all too easily manipulated.
>>65484204
literally end ure life haha!
>>65484204
well, how about you recommend us some albums that you had a spiritual experience with and aren't pop
>>65481534
what is the archive?
Almost any good album can make me feel a "genuine spiritual moment". I think it's more to do with how I'm feeling at a particular time than the album I'm listening to actually.
I hate being "that guy", but maybe you folks are too anaesthetised to feel that connection with yourselves more often.
>>65484348
>projection
>this post is also projection
>>65484204
nah. surrender yourself. be more easily manipulated
>>65484204
>all popular music is bad, grow up
>>65485187
Nicely greentexted, anon.

>>65478678

>>65481534

i once spent 3 months listening to the microphones - the glow pt 2 and nothing else even while sleeping and had the same dreams every night where i was walking around a cold sparse woods in the winter. finally one night i found a bouncy house in the middle of a clearing and inside it was very dark and lit entirely with candle light. phil was playing live inside and him and the audience were bouncing around all over the place while he played. then he said he was going to play some new material and it was the most beautiful noisy shoe gaze psychedelic type stuff i've ever heard. everyone got tired and was laying on the floor at this point fading in and out of consciousness letting the music cover us like a blanket. the ceiling of the bouncy house opened up and it was night at this point and the sky was full of stars and hot air balloons. smoke filled the sky. i focused on the full moon and fell asleep.

The last track feels like an ascension though.
pic related after a few days of suffering a psychotic episode, during that time no music was available to me.

Once while hippie-flipping, I was listening to "Running to the Ghost" over and over again while just sitting on the floor facing and open window. The song felt so utterly beautiful and otherworldly. I would close my eyes and see life as if it were portrayed in a psychedelic Miyazaki style -- animals running in the woods, open landscapes, etc. I was even narrating my own life of sorts and flashingback to events, etc. Eventually, I kept uttering the words "totality" to myself and each time I spoke, my voice sounded more and more distorted/deep and almost mechanical. Finally, I said it one last time and the word stretched out like "totttttaaaaallliiiittttttyyyyyy" and my entire field of vision became a gigantic, shimmering, beam of sunlight containing what looked like Buddha's face reflected on the water. When "I" came to, it felt like I had temporarily vanished into some realm of peace and tranquility, and the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was a beam of green light, rushing out into the trees from my open window. Exactly one year later, I was similarly tripping at my house and I remember feeling "awakened" and seeing another green beam in the same spot.
Also, OP, Mount Eerie is a pretty insane album to listen to while tripping. I was having a breakdown of sorts on a really intense acid trip, and I was sitting alone in my car at night listening to it. When Universe V came on, it felt like everything was "rushing" or "ascending" like there were beings watching me, like the car I was in started to warp and everything was "becoming exposed."
>>65478385
good lord i need more albums that make me feel the way this one does
When the sax on Starless kicks in.
