ITT: Albums you thought sounded differently before you listened to them.
I always thought pic related was a shoegaze album.

I thought this was electronic for a pretty long time.
I always thought this was an indie rock album.

The album is more of an IDM thing with shoegaze elements
I thought every single Animal Collective album was electronic
>inb4 "I thought this would be good music"
>>66154735
what? how did you get shoegaze from that cover? for me it sounded pretty much how i thought it would.
I thought this'd be some dark ambient with emo lyrics interspersed.
When i first heard his name i thought he was a rapper
>>66155070
Boy were you wrong
I thought it would be a kind of bittersweet singer/songwriter album.

Sweet Trip's related artists everywhere are My Bloody Valentine and LSD and The Search For God.
I thought this was a hip-hop album and I'm not really sure why.
Thought it would be black metal judging from the cover
thought this was some Weeknd-esque R&B type album
thought it was music.

Same
>>66154735
please rec me more like this
esp anything with the synth (?) tones in constantly the background in songs like 'velocity'
that sort of "waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooWAOwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaooooWAO" that underpins the whole track
((((i can't do music))))
I doubt anyone would guess that this sounds like it does
I thought it was 90s noise rock.

Thought it would be black metal.
>>66156600
what the fuck
>>66156600
>Expect either country or southern rap
>Get shoegaze instead
>>66155070
Now I really want to listen to dark ambient with emo lyrics. Any recs?
>>66155965
then your guess was correct

Thought it was hip-hop. Put off listening to it for about 4 or 5 years.
I just got really into music last year, and I remember before I found /mu/ I'd check albums that youtube recommended to me. Pic related popped up and for some reason I thought this was prog. rock (I even listened to it wtf) guess I just didn't know shit.
>>66155436
thought this was glam rock lol
>>66154735
>>66155029

I thought Death Grips was a rock band
>>66155436
>>66158061
I thought it was Al Green style R&B.
thought it was soft rock/sjw music
>>66158128
what
how
this album sounds exactly like the cover looks
I thought it was an album that would utilize samples, like a Japanese Handsomeboy Technique
>>66158170
just from what i had heard about it from others as well. wasn't sure
>>66158030
nah that's good judgement actually, the cover screams of prog. if I didn't know who Tame Impala was and I saw that cover, I'd definitely think it was prog.
>>66158030
>I just got really into music last year
neo/mu/
>>66156600
this makes me so angry
>>66158275
Oh shut the fuck up, it happened to everyone on this board at some point. Quit acting like you possess or have a special hold of something that he doesn't.
I always thought this would be good
>>66158030
Let It Happen is prog pop so maybe thats why
>>66158327
I was born listening to TMR and ITAOTS so you can fuck off
>>66158415
fuck off
>>66158415
I thought this was going to be like some sort of rock orchestra
I guess I wasn't that far off
>>66156002
>>66154735
but it is shoegaze :I
