Worst album you've ever heard?

I'm op not u
I've always wondered why people hate Danse Manatee, even people who are well enough into patricianhood to be able to listen to it without getting a headache seem to despise it. People who heil Spirit They're Gone, Spirit They've Vanished as a masterpiece, criticize the fuck out of Danse manatee, even though they are around the same level of abrasiveness.
But then it hit me, how many people have you seen who say they hate Danse Manatee, but love "Essplode"? How many people have you seen deny that Feels is the true anco pop masterpiece, because the tracks "drag on" too much? How many people have you seen who's least favorite track on Sung Tongs is Visiting Friends? Animal Collective have developed a fanbase who cannot appreciate slow music. Its not that Danse Manatee is too abrasive, people are just too fucking impatient. It's not a failed experiment, it just takes its fucking time. Asking an anco fan to appreciate this album is like asking a Soccer fan to appreciate Baseball. It's hard to go from "GET BALL TO GOAL" to whatever the fuck those nerds are doing in baseball. I don't actually watch sports.

You're overthinking this, it's because Pitchfork panned it.
you pleb, i like Danse Manatee
>>64660439
i know this is pasta, but its got a point
>>64660439
Danae Mantee is a knockoff of itself
>>64660124
Virtually every album this board likes or is hyped heavily today.
>>64660124
I recently found out that the reason most people hate Danse Manatee is because of the high-pitched sounds on it, like screeching two forks together
I mean I always thought people just thought it was boring or something but apparently it's literally unpleasant to listen to
>>64660747
High pitched were also on spirit, it's just on this album it's not as world bending as spirit
>>64660124
I like it a lot. I think they were experimented with extreme low and high frequencies, and left de middle kind of empty; which gives the album a sort of nothing-is-happening vibe. But if you manage to listen through that, the songs are pretty good; and the production is quite interesting.
>>64660124
There's no fucking way this natural and inspired - if a little underdeveloped - album is worse than the contrived, forced, and repulsive fucking shit that was Centipede Hz, and the depressing white flag of an album that is Painting With.
[You're favourite album]
>>64660124
ye this album isn't bad op but I understand why you wouldn't enjoy it
this
>>64662051
that cover looks really really cool though
>>64660124
At least it has essplode...
Here's an actual answer
Although I can see why people like it I still think Danse Manatee is pretty terrible.

Are you kidding? That's a masterpiece of outsider music.
>>64663494
I actually can't decide if it's an avant garde masterpiece or a piece of garbage desu

I would have to say Parklife. But as far as the worst album from an artist I like goes, probably Frank Zappa's the Man From Utopia. I fucking despise that album.
The most insulting release I've ever heard in general though is Echoes: The Best of Pink Floyd.

>outsider music
>>64660439
I agree with this pasta. I love Danse Manatee and I love Visiting Friends...but people always cite them as the worst...
I really wanted to like this. II and III were amazing, but this?
>>64663569
But how can an album be bad if it has Daily Mail and Lotus Flower on it?
>>64663816
>Daily Mail
Danse Manatee is the shit and any faggot who criticizes it or Visiting Friends is a bad faggot
>>64663813
Visiting Friends seems to have the most division as far as people's reaction to it goes. It seems like people either love it or hate it. I personally think it's one of the best things they've ever done, but I still kind of wish it were a bit longer, closer to twenty minutes.
>>64663530
This is /mu/'s effect on the brain.
>>64660124
Overall that's pretty mediocre, but had it gone more in the direction of stuff like Meet the Light Child and Hollinndagain and had a better structure to it it would potentially be my favorite album of all time
>>64663919
Honestly I think that Whaddit I Done is more divisive
>>64663662
>>64660124
Meet the Light Child, Oh Good Country, and Essplode are great songs.
>>64660439
This is pasta but it's good pasta
It is pretty hilarious at first though
>>64660615
not sure if bait or not
I´ll take it but the trick is........headphones
no headphones=staying pleb
>>64663441
I've been trying to listen to this in its entirety on YouTube, and I came across a song apparently not on this album but by her entitled Blowin'. It reminds me of The Trooper by Iron Maiden.

Soccer is pretty slow as it is though. It would've been better to compare Basketball to Baseball.
>>64664953
Are you kidding? That's a masterpiece of outsider music.
the instrumentals version is great though
>>64660124
oh my god
>>64660124
The greatest album of all time.
