i really, really, REALLY don't want to facilitate the discussion of that brainless fuck on this board, but it shows how dull the masses are when they still judge him personally based on what he was like 8 years ago.
>last 2 boyfriends

Yes, if you listen to it in vinyl track order. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellon_Collie_and_the_Infinite_Sadness#Original_vinyl_version
yesh
i really need recs m8s
my rec is to stop listening to /mu/core, actually explore music on your own, and to not make a fucking chart of rearranged /mu/ schlock ever again
Find an artist that you enjoy and start exploring genre or label charts based off of that

not all of it is
Death Grips is a progressive band pushing the genre forward.
Kanye makes shallow pop music and faux-"experimental" shallow pop music that is eaten up by tasteless normies.
Kanye West is loved only by memeing teenagers (Yeezus Season bruh XD).
Death Grips' fanbase is largely on 4chan, an 18+ site.
Death Grips has great verbose and intellectual lyrics (listen to Government Plates).
Kanye just raps about muh dick, money, fame, and bitches.
Kanye rips off his fan by selling overpriced blank white t-shirts.
Death Grips offers only the...

Bait? I don't know how you can think Kanye fans meme more than DG fans. Also the t shirt thing is a pretty stupid argument. Also Government Plates doesn't actually have a lot of lyricism, particularly the second half, and pales in comparison to some of the lyrical work on Niggas on the Moon. Also, Death Grips have called themselves feminist, and a few of Ride's lyrics can be interpreted through the lense of post-structuralist feminism (Ride as the other). I won't pretend that I know authorial intent as DG lyrics can sometimes be quite opaque, but the connections are there.

Are Deadheads dying out?
I've noticed fewer and fewer people that I meet are into the Grateful Dead now, many not even knowing who they are. It's obviously not because they're old, everyone's still heard of the Beatles and the other classics. They clearly still have a solid massive fanbase, but less and less younger people seem to be getting into them as time goes on.
It's crazy, they've got so much amazing music but the fanbase seems to be burning out. Maybe it's because of the sheer quantity of stuff they put out.
Thoughts?
I've met more in the past 2 years than I have in my whole life prior.
I guess it may be because there's loads of deadheads in Colorado, though.
>>65114571
True, it may very well be location based. I'm in the UK but I could swear I used to meet a lot more.
I've met a ton of people who are into them in college. Only a few are like Deadhead level like having favorite shows and shit, but their out there.
I totally agree with the massive consensus that this is a pinnacle of music history. This album had an immediate and profound impact on me, which I didn't expect after so many years of hearing about its mythical status and not being especially into the general circles of music it relates to. Finally I heard it and I think this or the USA album is the greatest 60s rock album. I'm totally killed by Nico's vocals. Destroyed. Helplessly in love. I mean, is there a better song in the history of the world than "All Tomorrow's Parties"? Magic.
The first VU I heard was Loaded, which didn't do much of anything for me and gave me a low opinion of Lou Reed to match the low opinions I'd heard expressed by many people. I wrote off VU as yet another overrated fashionable pop group for the idle pointless hipster crowd. But then I heard this album and the other early stuff and now I think he is a genius and I totally get into his singing and songwriting on the VU stuff. It was like "Now I get it. Now I understand what all these people are talking about. Now I'm one of them." Yes, that's an unsettling and profound experience to have. The whole history of rock music flashed before my mind's eye. Now I'm one of "them".
Hearing the acoustic versions of some of this stuff on the VU box set makes me even more convinced that Reed was the real deal, an authentic vessel of musical truth that rarely surfaces in the world. Have never heard any non-VU Lou Reed so far. I hear it sucks.
To me, "Sunday Morning" is the weakest track, but still an excellent song, and all the others are either great or in a category far beyond "great", a category of transcendental, ineffable perfection of unrepeatable convergences between sound and emotion.
I really like the scrapey, droney viola element. That's a kind of sound closer to the avant-garde music that's more comfortable and familiar for me.
>>65114456
>Sunday morning is the weakest track
its literally the best track
>>65114540
i find it hard to believe you even like the album if you actually think that
What a masterpiece this album is
>“I had to look after his toddler daughter once and it was so much easier than baby-sitting the father,” said bodyguard to the stars Steve Stanulis, whose past clients include Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire. “I’ve been employed by a lot of high-end people but I’ve never worked for someone like him. He’s 10 times worse than what you see.”
>“We headed to his music studio. When we got into the elevator Kanye just stood there with his arms folded and said, ‘Aren’t you going to press the button?’”

Give him a break, he's literally like massively autistic.

I don't bash literal retards.

never thought of that somehow lol
i guess it makes sense, but i have a bunch of filler albums from my parents collections still and i don't want them sitting next to my good stuff. i've got almost as much as the OP pic
what music player for Windows do u guys recommend?
WMP handles mp3 just fine.
FLAC with K lite codec pack is still a mess, it plays but wmp doesnt read metadata right and cant scroll thru song.
Also tried iTunes, but thats kinda slow.
Any good alternatives out there i should know about?

musicbee is pretty good

thx m8, looks great so far

I unironically use WMP because all the rest I've tried (and I've tried all the autism meme ones) suck.

Illmatic is an objective GOAT

Seeed, Die Ärzte, Beatsteaks, Wir Sind Helden are all good. I hate Die Toten Hosen though.
