was this the last masterpiece in rock history?
nope, you're thinking of the seer by swans
>Loveless
>Leaves Turn Inside You
>Vision Creation Newsun
>Yank Crime
>Repeater
>FA∞
>Spiderland
>Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
All those are at least on par with Daydream Nation, if not significantly better.
>>66119210
>Loveless
not better but its a masterpiece for sure
>Leaves Turn Inside You
>Vision Creation Newsun
>Yank Crime
>Repeater
>FA∞
great albums but not a masterpiece
>Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
lol
>>66119140
Muse is still around, you know
So no.
>>66119502
heh
>>66119210
This
And Radiohead, Oasis, A Silver Mount Zion and basically a shit ton of music
>>66119210
these aren't rock albums in the sense that OP was implying
>>66119723
>Radiohead
>Oasis
>masterpiece
>>66119140
This album is truly matchless. You on the other hand sound like a pretentious douche for trying to make a point that there was not a rock masterpiece made since late eighties.
>>66119140
like the 4th best Sonic Youth record dude
>>66121010
DD is their best album and you have to be a massive contrarian to think otherwise
>>66121034
>DN
fixed
>>66121010
Which three would you put above it? I'm only up to Washing Machine but I would say their top 4 is
1. DN
2. BMR
3. Sister
4. Goo
>>66119210
>Loveless
Masterpiece
>Leaves Turn Inside You
Unwound has better albums
>Vision Creation Newsun
It's close to one
>Yank Crime
Good album but not a masterpiece
>Repeater
Masterpiece
>FA∞
LYSF is their masterpiece
>Spiderland
Masterpiece
>Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Meh
>>66119210
>>Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
>>66121095
I'm partial to Evol too, really don't know why everyone circle jerks around DD so much other than that opening track
Titus Andronicus - The Monitor
>>66119140
>Ok Computer
>Loveless
>>66121389
OK Computer is not a masterpiece what the fuck are you talking about?
Loveless is a masterpiece tho
>>66121469
>OK Computer is not a masterpiece what the fuck are you talking about?
Why not?
>>66121341
EVOL actually seems to be the favorite around here lately, which makes sense seeing as it's sort of the transition between their more no wave experimental style and their straightforward alternative rock style. I don't really see the hype about it thought. I honestly can't think of a track on Daydream Nation that I don't like, and even though I don't normally like double albums (mainly for being longer than they need to) I can't say I ever get exhausted of it either. Every bit of it feels so essential, like it would be the same without even Providence. I just hear it as a creative distillation of everything they had done up to that point, and their personal tribute to punk rock.
>>66121493
its not innovative or groundbreaking. its just a very good pop rock album and far from being a masterpiece
>>66121554
Literally every second of OKC sounds interesting from a musical standpoint.
>>66121579
so? masterpieces arent only interesting
>>66121469
Is this what the new meme is these days? Hating critically acclaimed classics, including OK Computer? Jesus fucking Christ, you guys are getting ridiculous
>>66119723
>Oasis
>masterpiece
Why have you not ended your life yet, Montie?
>>66121647
I think the issue comes up when people hear about Radiohead as being pretty much the modern day Beatles, and then instantly think "Oh well they must be overrated, then." And so they dismiss everything they do, even if it truly WAS fucking incredible. Their first impression was overwhelming praise and fanboy antics, and that's what'll stick with 'em.
Or maybe they just don't like it.
>>66121647
/mu/ is by nature contrarian. Although I have to say this is obscene, even /mu/core is getting shat on. if /mu/ wants to have ANY redeeming qualities this needs to stop
>>66121771
Yeah I been noticing this as well a lot lately. The generally accepted /mu/core albums are all pretty great albums in the first place. Now I starting to feel embarrassed that I like them so much because I don't know where all this hate is coming from.
>>66121655
dubs of truth
kys Montie
>>66121747
nope i genuinely dont find radiohead's music to be all that fulfilling or enjoyable.. OK Computer would be my favorite of theirs but that really isn't stating much..
>>66119140
No, Tool's "Aenima" was.
>>66121511
Don't get me wrong, I do love the album and there's a lot to like about it, but a lot of people really only seem prepared to talk about the first half of DD even though SY has a massive discography that's all really cool
>>66119723
jesus you seriously have the worst taste ever you fucking child
>>66119356
>not mentioning spiderland
kek. i'm assuming you mean it's a masterpiece
>>66121625
Ok computer is one of the most influential albums of the 1990s as well as one of the best stop talking out of your ass contrarian
>>66123670
And it was also very innovative, it basically shaped 2000s Indie rock
>>66119140
Goo, Washing Machine, and Dirty are all better though.
>>66120697
/thread
>>66123707
>dirty
Yes
>goo and washing machine
"No"
Sister is best, senpai
>>66121095
>I'm only up to Washing Machine but I would say their top 4 is
what are you implying? that you never heard SY until recently?
Are You an astronaut by HUM
>>66124158
you got it f a m
>>66119140
No. The last masterpieces were from '97: Perfect from Now On and Well Oiled.
>>66120059
>matchless
but a match was needed to ignite the candle desu
>>66119140
"daydream nation is rock"
"no no none of what you're saying is rock"
"no not even stuff that focuses more on guitar and drums"
fuck off m8
>>66121888
you genuinely feel embarrassed because people on an anonymous image board are calling you names and not liking what you like? That's more a lot more sad then people hating on mu-core.
>>66121034
Or someone who has actually taken the time to listen to their 30 year spanning catalog and form their own opinion. Everything they did in the 80s is comparable if not better than DDN.

I haven't been made fun of directly, I'm referring to more general hatred towards /mu/core that makes me kinda doubt my tastes and sometimes if these albums or even any good. But that's more rarehonestly. 95% of the time I'm confident and secure enough in my own taste that despite what is said about /mu/core, rather jokingly or not, I'll still love those albums to bits
