>>52883149the lyrics are pretty multifaceted though, with all the civil war references and whatnot
>>52883163i think i confused him for another trip with a favorite album
>>52883145you're on the right track(It's Pink Moon)
>>52883130no, i'm notalso diadem isn't a meme>>52883019Justice - Cross or some shit like that>>52883114Unknown Pleasures?
The fact that it serves as basically a precursor to all post rock/punk, the political and apocalyptic nature of the lyrics fitting the atmosphere of impending doom, the subtle but impressive guitar lines and occasional use of viola and piano

>>52883205nailed it (V:
>>52883226Perturbator comes to mind
>>52883226Pretty Hate Machine
>>52883186>no, i'm not>also diadem isn't a memeyeah, i didn't think so, but it was the only other one i could think of at the moment. it's shelter, isn't it?
>>52883300it's Aesthethica>tfw don't really like blackgaze tho
>>52883328oh, shit. not liturgy.and they're not blackgaze, they're "transcendental black metal", remember?
>>52882453They way the song hops between drawn out orchestral, extremely moving pieces to fun short pop songsEasymode: its not sung in english
>>52883352yeah i'm aware they're pretty far from blackgazeit's just that i expected to like those other bands since they're commonly thrown into the same sack and beaten, but eh
>>52883371super foreign icelandic postrock band. so foreign, am i right?
>>52883484nope
Expansive songs, very gently sung vocals, extremely cleanly produced while never feeling over produced
>>52883143No no noStick with the folk, the folk is the key
>>52883510super foreign japanese mathrock band. so foreign, am i right?
>>52882653Little Kid - Logic Songs
the shitty keyboard
The quiet, soblike singing that's almost in perfect harmony with loud, noisy, and dissonant instrumentation.
not enough chemistry puns in this thread
The mindfuck/craziness of some of the songs, especially the 4th song where its like overdosing on drugs and dying cause of it and your mind is processing what the fuck happened as the outro of that song plays, and it fits perfectly
>>52883755I don't know this one but want to

>>52883762A Promise?>>52883575O shitMaybe Van MorrisonHe's pretty bitter
>>52883794Cryptooology came to mind immediately
>>52883865nope, i will listen to that though, it might be similar to what i had in mind.
>>52883857>Van MorrisonNoI'm going to bed now so just incase the thought of what it could possibly be is going to keep anyone up at night, it's Drinking Songs by Matt Elliott
>>52882453One of Earth's later albums
>the pop melodies and jazziness in between ire and rage
Far out jazz fusion of epic proportions
The amount of raw energy output by the vocals
>>OPfilosofem
>>52883857CorrectHere's another favorite of mineThe postpunk mixed with heavy funk influence backed by a dude that sounds like he's losing his mind.
>>52884138Option Paralysis>>52884139Bitches Brew
>>52883865eh, i'm not liking it so farits just lets do random things with drums and guitars for a album
the overarching narrative storyline that could work on it's own as a book, but fits better in the context of an album

>>52884180it's a grower.>>52884197Mount Eerie
>>52884178Knew that was coming, but no. Love that album too though
>>52884178>Option ParalysisClose
>>52884176Either Y, Buy, or Entertainment!
>Icy, sometimes intimidating vocals.>Somewhat annoying on first listen, then sounds great every time after.>Pitch shifting>Tumblriffic political stances, don't care, still a good album musically.
>>52883013DG
>>52884313>nice drums>DG>not Hella
>>52884310Something by the Knife or Fever Ray.>>52883755Daudi Baldrs?>the catchy, beautiful minimalism
This is the element I like the *least* about the album:>sparkling sounds for 10 minutes
>>52884434Consume Red?
>>52884434STGSTV
>>52884455No, although you can construct a purely linguistic connection
>>52884495No
>The track that only appears on cassette and the UK vinyl pressings
>>52884200>>52884306It was YHarder oneGuy and his guitar singing some depressing lyrics
>>52884543Pink Moon again?
>>52884310Grimes so you have a shitty taste in music
>>52884569no lel
>>52884536that was my favorite album for a long time. unfortunately i wasted $30 on the shitty 1972 repress that doesn't include the bonus tracks. i was so sad when i realized what i bought. i still don't feel like spending $100 on the original pressing.
>>52884588I guess there are just *too many* depressed guys with guitars
>>52884434Come on people, this is isn't so hard. It's a well-known feature of a well-known album of a legendary band
>The mixture of melodeath and prog making a beautiful s/t song
>>52884625I really /reaally/ want to find a copy of the cassette . I have the $120 (shipping and junk) but I'm back and forth on a vinyl copy
>>52884434Quadrophenia
>>52884679good luck on that. it'll be about a thousand times harder to find than even eccojams, and probably more expensive as well.
>>52884671Opeth - Deliverance or Blackwater Park
>>52882453>violin and synth loops and thrown in japanese phrases
>>52884704>Consume RedMuch Closer than the others but still not really close
>>52884704Much Closer than the others but still not really close(The last post was a misquote)
>>52884822wish you were here?
>>52884730The closest I've gotten to a copy on cassette is seeing a picture of someone else's. feels bad man
>>52884882damn, i'd pay money for a picture of it.
the electronics arranged with the grand orchestrations
>>52884840Again much closer but still a bit apart ;-)
>>52884925ITCOCK
>>52884991strike :-)
>>52885021Nice, I prefer Quadrophenia but still a good album nonetheless
The way the interludes mix with the choppy sawing instrumentation and pained singing. The theme of fear and control
>>52885079I think I like Red even more, but Moonchild made a better riddle ;-)I've never listened to Quadrophenia. I'll give it a try.
>>52885114Public Castration
The genuine, almost naive sincerity from the confused, troubled artist is highlighted in a devastatingly sad tone enhanced by clear production (something the artist never had before)
>>52885172I just think that Roger Daltrey's voice is stronger and I love Entwistle's bass
The manic voice and wacky instrumentals hiding a cold, scary hidden message sets this album apart from other 70's punk albums
>>52885236i sort of think that sounds like pink moon, except that nick drake had clear production in his previous albums.
>>52885236fun
>>52885277CloseHint: Fun is a shit album
>>52885261the modern dance
>>52882453the clangy, muffled, production that still is somehow catchyyou guys know what is anyway
>>52885243I don't like to compare bands this much. The music just needs to feel right and it does for many bands and albums.
>>528852881990?
>>52885271No, it's not Nick DrakeHint: scaruffi thinks it's his best album and he's right
>>52885323Sorry, I wasn't trying to compare as much as say that I like the way that The Who execute their music
>>52885302Nope. Answers a bit more obvious
>>52885381Yep
> real heaviness while clearly showing its roots
>>52882453>the beautifully richly produced songs that feel like I'm listening to an orchestra mixed with a choir.
>>52885403devo?
>>52885424This better not be fucking Royal Blood cause that's all I've heard my friends say about them
>>52885190Nah. That's a good album though. Mines a bit poppier/emo
the classic Anglo rock band got more folksy, and as a result developed beautifully melancholy pop songsHint: Wes Anderson used multiple tracks from this album in one of his movies, but never used a song from it ever again
>>52885394Yeah, I think they are a band where I can still find some treasures. I mostly know their hits, I can't actively remember having listened to their albums
The slow, Teutonic female drawl of the singer backed by baroque strings and guitar invokes feelings of loneliness the singer obviously had
>>52885467john barleycorn?a friend of mine really likes that album and i've been trying to get him into comus.
>>52885508No, they're a bit more popular than that
>>52885489The disappointing thing is that Quadrophenia is their only truly classic album
>>52882453The fantastic heavy and dark sound in every track on the album that subtly builds an amazing atmosphere.
>>52885502i want to say sigur ros but ill be wrong
>>52885453it isn't
>>52885537with classic you mean the only album worth listening for more than a couple of times?
>>52885559You're wrongHint: she's a solo artist
>>52885621No, Who's Next and Tommy are worth listening to more than a couple times too, but I feel that Quadrophenia was the album where they took their artistic abilities to new heights
> the quality of the songs and the directness of vocals although they are not technically good
>>52885649is it a joanna newsom album?
>>52885726Ah, ok
> the nothing-can-harm-me attitude despite great melancholy in the lyrics and music
>>52885772She's not german "Teutonic"
>>52885849Is it hip hop?
>>52885925No
>>52883865>>52883794The answer was, Batfinks - Stema Tarnyt4th track is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CThI-gyhok8
>>52885726I am listening to Quadrophenia now and I really like how present the bass is.
>>52882453It sound is incredibly calming and relaxing / comfy for the most part, despite its depressing lyricism and subject matter
>>52885852I guess, Nico? Desertshore?
>>52882905>>52883622Probably too late to respond now but it's The Glow Part 2
he asks if we saw the words
>>52884397Yep.Shaking the Habitual.
>>52889128i was going to say crystal castles
>>52882453Drum sound recorded at sound cityEmo milestoneGreat experimentation within the genre including, drum loops, light electronic elements, vocal harmony's, while still remaining fairly true to the genres main conventions.
It's cute without being dumb or unnuanced.
>>52883195Deceit
The contrast between warm, child-like melodies and psychadelic freakouts
it's very ethereal, dreamy and melancholic and also has a very lame title
>>52891481...And The Native Hipsters- There Goes Concorde Again
>>52891469sung tongs
>>52891486nah, that album definitely isn't melancholic, but yeah, it has a stupid title. Think of something more related to dream pop(though it's still post-punk)>>52889396Cap'n Jazz? no idea
>>52882453Could be any Burzum album.The nostalgic atmosphere.
>>52882453The Mantle - Agalloch?
A perfect blend of musique concrete instrumentation, sound collages, and rock.
>>52891610D.I. Go Pop?There Goes Concorde Again?
>>52891635Nope, think 70's.
>>52891654the Spooky Tooth and Pierre Henry collab?
>>52891682Nope. That looks amazing though.The answer is Faust.
>>52891533nah
>>52891610The Spoils of War
>>52891698oh wow, I feel pretty stupid nowbut yeah, check out that album especially if you like psychedelic rock
>>52891711Spirit??
