ITT: Albums and their equivalent as Films.
I'll start
The Deer Hunter
cardiacs sing to god
is there a tim and eric movie because that
>>60781365
Not even close, but great concept for a thread tho!
Invader Zim
MBV - Loveless
pretty obvious one but hey it keeps the thread going
The Room
Taxi Driver
The Seventh Seal
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Citizen Kane
>>60781380
>The Deer Hunter
>>60781562
Or alternatively Remain in Light
(fight me)
The Breakfast Club
>>60781562
no 2bh
>>60781443
I think they are very close
>both came out in 1977
>themes of oppressive industrial society, and disgusting side of sex
>Frankie teardrop has a VERY similar storyline to eraserhead's plot
>The sound design of Eraserhead mimics industrial noise, as does Suicide
Inland Empire
>>60781628
never though of it that way, makes a lot of sense
cool analysis, anon
>>60781638
>Both their respective creator's longest work.
>Polarizing use of digital medium.
>Disjointed, non-linear, depressing and horrifying
I think you're right, anon.
>>60781534
/thread
>>60781689
>both hella fucking epic
>>60781689
First time I listened to Soundtracks I kept thinking about David Lynch in general and Inland Empire specifically.
Dark Side of the Moon
>>60781749
Not true at all.
God Bless America
>>60781387
they save a mall or something i forget
>>60781749
Lyrical themes of DSOTM don't really have anything to do with 2001, but they both have remarkably high degrees of polish and spectacle
>>60781387
Some anon nailed it in the other thread about Roald Dahl.
>>60781749
nope, not sure what 2001 is but it's not that.
>Space Oddity
>>60781911
after 30 seconds of thinking I'd probably pick a post rock album for 2001. Quite a slow build up to a massive crescendo.
>>60781934
>slow build up
Man, every scene of that movie was interesting. If you only remember the ending then you need to get better taste.
The Mirror - Tarkovsky
>>60781993
I wasn't saying that as a bad thing, 2001 is probably my favourite movie but what made me fall in love with it the first time watching was the slow but beautiful and gripping build up to that explosion at the end. It blew my mind.
>>60781638
>>60781689
this changes my perspective on the album ngl
fucking amal
>>60781548
Really?
>>60781749
Really?
A Serbian film?
>>60782600
why don't you post one then smartypants
stop taking art so seriously
bump de hump
Who is the Jim Jarmusch of music? (Other than himself)
The fault in our stars :^)
>>60783141
Tom Waits or John Lurie (or Lounge Lizards) obv
Trainspotting
>>60783141
David Lynch
>>60782680
how though?
Fear and loathing in las vegas
>>60783201
>not Royal Tenenbaums
>>60781911
>not sure what 2001 is
Jesus fuck. I know this is a music board but I can't believe I'm sharing it with someone who doesn't even know what 2001 is, let alone someone who hasn't seen it.
>>60783205
Ayy my favourite film
samsara
>>60781510
accurate, kinda helped that Kevin Shields put together the soundtrack
>>60781749
They're both popular, if that's what you're getting at, but they're literally nothing like each other.
>>60781997
accurate
>>60781934
Lift Your Skinny Fists seems like it would work for 2001 for some reason.
>>60781534
i dont get it
>>60783194
I was gonna say
>not itaots but I think this is better desu senpai
High Fidelity
Major Organ and the Adding Machine
>>60781365
nah, this is eraserhead
The Thing
>>60783288
The climax of Storm would definitely fit the infamous bone to spaceship match cut.
https://youtu.be/61LZKhBgDso?t=10m4s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI3s5fA7Zhk
>>60783426
>the infamous bone to spaceship match cut.
>infamous
don't you just mean famous
>>60783349
That's The Shining you dingus
A Clockwork Orange
>>60781510
No. I know about the soundtrack, but no.
>>60783444
gotta agree with this one
>>60783439
Sorry I'm a little drunk
>>60783472
I'd say TPTB
Deathconsciousness
>>60783349
That album made me feel the same way I felt the time I watched that Twilight Zone episode with the old man in a retirement home that recognizes some song in the radio, he goes to tell his friends to come and listen to it, but when they get to the radio it's just static. And then he finds the song again, and the same thing happens; and then he finds the song again, and the same thing happens.
(I think it was like that, I watched that episode several years ago and only once)
>>60783444
Other albums of his under the Caretaker name are much more like The Shining, this one doesn't really feel that similar.
Do the Right Thing
Gummo
>>60783721
for me it's this
Perfect Blue
Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0
I don't even particularly like the movie, but they just fit too well for me.
Particularly when Tokyo 3 rises from the ground, fitting 09-15-00
Shinji growing a pair to save Rei fits the buildup to Motherfucker = Redeemer.
>>60783256
do you like slowdive too?
That film is so fucking amazing man I wanted to save the girls so fucking badly when I watched it
The Spook Who Sat by the Door
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
>>60783789
Yeah of course I love slowdive. I think the whole air of mystery really just draws me to it as in its never really solved but it just leaves you thinking about ages after watching it
Tropical Maladay
or any other album idk
Spongebob, the first one.
>>60783214
inb4 muh brutal
>>60785017
Hell yes my man
>>60782540
>Show Me Love
>>60783324
other than the cover not at all
>>60783679
you got served
Videodrome
>>60784181
Scott Pilgrim would be Anamanaguchi.
>>60781365
Eraserhead is Trout Mask Replica
>>60783194
Go away.
Mad Max: Fury Road
>>60785225
>Minimal setting, sounds, characters and story, lots of subtext
>is like Trout Mask Replica
huh
Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Cronenberg's adaptation of naked lunch
Or Osmosis Jones, actually.
>>60783195
Tom Waits' style really fit Down By Law, so I'd go with this.
Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
I know that's it might not count because Trent Reznor was involved with both of them but fuck it.
>>60785602
Story wise Whiplash is Trout Mask Replica :^)
The Wizard of Oz
>>60785867
hah! I get it!
fast and bulbous, my friend!
>>60783248
He obviously meant he's not sure what album 2001 represents but it's definitely not dsotm
The Room
this and goodbye dragon inn are often compared
>>60783194
For some reason I think Short Term 12 imo
No Country for Old Men
so people are just trying to pass of their shitty meme album as good by comparing it to a film? and vice versa
requesting
Of Mice and Men
Moonrise Kingdom?
>>60786190
Don't be a dork.
Most of these pics are either based on the progression of the film or matching the aesthetic.
>>60781365
Good call. Both bizarre, cold, and strangely funny
>>60781534
...he kills himself at the end?
>>60781365
what, how????
>>60786189
Book equivalent is Blood Meridian. 100% undeniable fact.
>>60786442
They both involve killing babies for starters
>>60783201
I was thinking this would be better for Trainspotting.
>>60786513
>>60783201
youre both wrong
>>60782540
how the fuck is fucking åmål discussed on this board? SVEARIKE?
>>60786599
Won't argue with you there. Was gonna pick that one but I was thinking of records with songs that weren't on the soundtrack.
>>60783201
>it's about heroin addiction therefore it's like Trainspotting
you're like those people that say Pacific Rim is the american Evangelion.
>>60786205
bumping this request
>>60786599
>>60786513
in the "book" trainspotting they literally talk about the song heroin, saying true druggies prefer the TVU&N version over the Rock 'n' Roll Animal electric version
>>60788034
wrong.
they say that it's an unwritten rule of junkies NOT to play heroin while youre shooting up, and that TVU version is WORSE because of John Cale's viola playing.
check your facts, nigga.
>>60788034
they talk about Iggy Pop way more then they talk about TVU
Nymphomaniac
Inland Empire (Tilt would be Mulholland Drive)
this is a good thread concept OP :)
End of Evangelion
>>60788302
shitty and overrated?
>>60785551
>not Kyuss or QOTSA
>>60786205
For some reason I'm feeling Rushmore on this
>>60788324
Sure, whatever
>>60783616
Isn't that like, Tim's favorite movie or something?
>>60786453
Completely accurate
>>60783194
quite true, both attempt to crudely manipulate the audience's emotions.
>>60788612
this is good
>>60781689
Inland Empire was one of the few films I had to watch twice to actually like. But I liked STFB from the start
>>60781749
I agree although some post rock album might work to
>>60789696
thanks
Requesting
>>60786205
I'd say Falling down.
>>60789894
Aku no Hana (Not a film but still)
the cremaster cycle
>>60781548
I'm assuming you've either never listened to streetcleaner or you've never watched taxi driver
>>60788324
A good piece widely hated and loved mostly by plebs
>>60788302
Since I treat OK Computer as the equivalent to NGE the series, this works incredibly well.
for obvious reasons hehe
The Martian
>>60788197
But FNF was good
Videodrome
>>60788329
Welcome to Sky Valley would be perfect desu senpai
>>60781365
the equivalent album to eraserhead is the eraserhead soundtrack
>>60781638
yeah but inland empire is a fascinating masterpiece and SFTB is shit
La Haine.
>>60783349
I'd compare this to "it's such a beautiful day"
you're all fucked in the head and have godawful opinions
The Dark Crystal
Boogie Nights
>>60789894
Whore's Glory
Rushmore.. Or really anything by Wes Anderson.
Ariel Pink sinks up pretty well with A Clockwork Orange
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtYbJXXZ0Dg
Donnie Darko
>>60783324
more like Animatrix
American Psycho
inb4 Phil Collins, Huey Lewis, etc.
>>60792464
It's weird how well pom pom's neo-60s-psychedelia-cum-80s-synthpop-and-post-punk style fits with A Clockwork Orange's future.
Are there any albums about the inevitability of nuclear annihilation that aren't for fedora-wearing teenagers, and don't take themselves too seriously?
>>60781626
this
(for plebs who haven't listened to the album there's alot of NGE references)
>>60785930
was waiting for this
>>60786205
Idk, 8 1/2?
>>60786599
>>60786513
>>60783201
>implying this isn't the true heroin-core
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Mostly in the feeling both albums give me, but also the romantic themes in song titles up until "Whaddit I done, brad?", in which the relationship is forgotten (it's a stretch)
Kung Fury
>>60793140
>don't take themselves too seriously
this heat basically said they were convinced they were going to die in a nuclear disaster
>>60781559
but Faust is playful and has a sense of humor underpinning it. it's also a deconstruction of previous rock styles in the loose framework of an epic narrative, unlike Seventh Seal which is a fairly standard epic narrative (if one that serves as the vehicle for a better film than most that choose to follow epics)
>>60793053
Joy Division - Closer
>>60786137
lol by whom new user of soon-to-be-with-your-contribution-Sonemic(c)
>>60793240
Well they're still not wrong.
>>60793367
do you read a lot of Russia Today or something? who the fuck is worried about nuclear war in 2015?
>>60793388
libertarians and poor people
Marketa Lazarova
The Turin Horse
Fight Club.
I think after a while David Fincher realized that Trent Reznor should just score everything he fucking makes.
>>60781576
under rated post
American Football. Matches with any 90s suburbs movie desu senpai
>>60788197
hahaha NO!!!
>>60783472
>Major deconstruction of free-will vs. society and how the human soul and spirit are more valuable than anything
>Angry gym rap
You're so wrong. Have you even seen A Clockwork Orange past the first act?
Jacob's Ladder - Silent Hill Soundtrack
>>60785635
I love how you picked two movies that couldn't be farther from one another, yet you're not wrong on either account. THAT is the power of Ween.
>>60786247
They're both vapid hipster trash, so I'm going to agree with you.
Trout Mask Replica
Breathless
Princess Mononoke
>>60781749
Nah m8
>>60794699
Actually I was about to post "Pain is beauty" with "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind"
>>60781508
desu senpai
>>60794918
Haven't seen that one yet but I definitely will now
There Will Be Blood
>>60781365
both are in my top 3 albums and movies
and i agree btw
>>60781628
THANK YOU
>>60786120
the first good one in this thread
>>60781628
you forgot both obsessed with 50s and early 60s pop music
>>60788203
wat would be bisch bosch
The King of Limbs
>>60785930
ayy lmao
Always thought of Suicide as the equivalent to Taxi Driver.
>>60793345
i've had a friend remark on the similarity. i've seen people mention it on /mu/. i've seen people mention it on rym. y'know just people. no one important would make the comparison.
>>60783763
SUPER underrated post
>>60792780
Dude spiderland is Donnie Darko. The lyrics to Don aman are literally the plot to Donnie Darko.
>>60781534
Oh hello mark
>>60788118
This, only if I remember correctly it's not because the viola makes the song bad, but rather it's because the screech of the instrument disturbs them when they're high.
>>60783325
I love the scene where jeff mangum dressed up as a lobster dances.
>>60781534
best ITT
>>60796084
what's the movie?
I think Begotten works really well with Soundtracks For The Blind.
What would this be?
Requiem for a Dream
:^)
>>60797867
>>60793053
Salò
Birdemic: Shock and Terror
film: the big chill
album: probably tylo be chillin
>>60793677
>Fight Club
>>60783616

but Deathconsciousness is obviously Begotten
>>60793053

Kinda neat considering the director of Moon is Bowie's son.
