/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

>>54858042
Agreed
>inb4 stop pretending to like it!!!

>>54858042
Why do you care that /mu/ can't into entry level free jazz? Not may people can.

I've been here longer than you and think TMR is below average. Like a 4/10.

>>54858042
its okay for people to have differing opinions, thats what makes the world interesting :)

I like this album, and get annoyed when people write it off
But you're not helping

>>54858056
not for ppl saying they are interested in music and not recognizing one of it's greatest achievements. thats like being interested in art and thinking mona liza is 'below average' - it's retarded and opinionated in a very autistic way

>>54858042
I love beefheart and this album is one of my favs by him and the magic band.
You are literal cancer though.

>>54858055
Thinking tmr is 5/10 + or - 1 is actually way more controversial than thinking it's 1 or 10/10

I think its a 6/10

wat do

>>54858074
stay but hide

>>54858042
mehh 6/10
there are better albums like it

>>54858083
name 2 that are not uncle meat

>>54858066
Lol if you actually think that tmr is at all equivilent to the Mona Lisa you need to fucking get some perspective and listen to more music. It's not even the musical equivilent to Duchamp's Fountain.

I agree. TMR is baby's first avant-garde and if you honestly don't understand it you shouldn't be allowed to discuss music here.

>>54858097
i didnt say so, it was just a comparison of 2 great works in 2 different mediums of art; i didnt say they corelate

Pretension: The Album

it's a purposefully bad performance art project. It was always supposed to be bad. It's literally a bad joke. If you "like" this album or think it is "good" then you are missing the entire point. You are the unfunny butt of an unfunny joke. How does that feel?

Beefheart is laughing in his grave

>>54858114
>Beefheart is laughing in his grave
yes, at you

>>54858114
>"Jackson Pollock couldn't paint!!!"

>>54858109
>thats like being interested in art and thinking mona liza is 'below average
You said not liking tmr is like not liking the Mona Lisa.
Except that it isn't like this. At all. It's more like not liking Van Gogh if Van Gogh had never achieved any real recognition after his lifetime. And he also had arthritis and Parkinson's from an early age.

>>54858126
with me, friendo. with me

I'm "in on it", you see. I "get it"

it's bad

>>54858093
Swordfishtrombones, God Bless the Red Krayola and All Who Sail With It

>>54858146
haahhah well ok then, good point dude had a laugh

>>54858114
Yeah. This is actually how the entire genre of free jazz. They all just spend their free time that they say they're practicing laughing at all the people who think they like music that doesn't stick strictly to the diatonic scale with simple chords in simple progressions where the melodies never diviate from that progression and and nothing is played outside 4/4 time.

>>54858149
>typical TMR detractor
>knowledge of work operates on sophomoric rumors, bland culture warring, third hand impressions, the belief that "high art" must resemble the neo-classical, and that if he doesn't understand something right away then he is probably too wise for it
>can't find anyone who will engage him or correct his uninformed opinion because he is underexposed to anything but surface indie and unpleasant
>will go to his grave believing he saw through the great sham that was TMR

>>54858198
>diviate

you wrote that entire little blurb to sound verysmart and one little typo reveals you for the ass you are

>>54858171
I actually do love Beefheart btw. But his importance to music history is over exaggerated a lot around here.

>>54858222
checked

>>54858222
oh. my. god.

I honestly don't think you're trolling right now. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

friendly reminder: TMR is the kind of album that would blow Jaden Smith's mind. He would think it was the deepest thing ever

>>54858227
Honestly I thought this but it turns up fucking everywhere. Slint, Tera Melos, This Heat, in almost any dissonant guitar-work you can hear TMR's influence for sure

Could be a coincidence, but for example Dali's Car sounds a lot like Slint

>>54858042
nice meme

>>54858237
>hurr who am i better than
>jaden smith
>he would love this

>>54858225
>ass you are
no u

>>54858225
Proof reading is the bane of my existence. Spelling shouldn't matter this much to you. Language exists to convey information. If I'd misspelt every word of that post and you still understood there shouldn't have been a problem. Stop being so pedauntik.

>>54858264
I agree that communication isn't just what you put across, it's what you get across to the other person.

Of course I understood what you were trying to say! And of course the fact that you couldn't do it lucidly communicates your lack of intelligence to me. So we agree on that...

>>54858293
>muh <<ironic>> autism meme

can everyone who doesnt like it and are still here share their favorite albums?

>>54858250
Dissonance has been used before and after Beefheart. If almost every dissonant guitar-work was influenced by tmr, beefheart would be a multi platinum selling artist.

>>54858316
my favorite album is Trout Mask Replica.

but I don't "like" it

I appreciate it for its place in the rock lexicon. but it's supposed to be bad

>>54858318
>Dissonance has been used before and after Beefheart
Of course, but I think his use of it has influenced a lot of other artists

>beefheart would be a multi platinum selling artist
Well that's assuming everyone who's heard his music hasn't pirated it, but he's pretty well-known by almost anyone who's seriously into music

>>54858056
>claims to have an interest in music
>"music is just an opinion man"
:^)

>>54858316
my favorite album is Blood on the Tracks

>>54858293
>dat condescending tone
>acting like an autistic pedant
>I agree with you about things you didn't say
Very good anon. You almost had me there for a minute.

>>54858330
i thought this also when too when i only listened to it 5 times

>>54858318
it charted in the UK, it's on loads of greatest-of-all-time lists

>>54858066
>tmr is one of the greatest musical achievements
jesus christ you people are delusional

>>54858412
what's in your opinion are the greatest musical achievements?

>>54858396
You could also say this about a lot of artists. Like The Monkees.
Music critics usually aren't that well versed in music. Particularly popular music critics.

>>54858114
Babbys first troll: The post.

Here's your response. You little memer you.

>>54858460
TPAB

>>54858468
even if I was trolling, which I'm not, a lot of people fell for it. don't act unimpressed. it's milquetoasty

>>54858462
>Music critics usually aren't that well versed in music. Particularly popular music critics.

>>54858460
you can fucking measure "musical achievements" without being exteremly biased just like you did. it's also such a meaningless and stupid thing to say.

anyway, it's probably mozart's haydn quartets

>>54858484
>which I'm not
Is this post-bait? Is this the logical conclusion to bait?

>>54858462
your analysis of Trout Mask Replica is "dissonant guitar work" and you're complaining about OTHER critics lacking musical rigour?

>>54858508
if by post-bait you mean sincerity. I think TMR sucks. Is that b8y enough for you?

>>54858531
my analysis of you is ur a cuck

>>54858500
haha you fucking plebeian haydn's quartets were objectively bigger steps forward

>>54858074
Prove your patricianess by telling us what's your favourite Devo album.

Two questions for lovers of TMR:
1. Do you listen to this album at a loud volume when you listen to it? I mean very loud, obviously.
2. When do you prefer to listen to it? Is it night music, drinking music, background music?

>>54858765
loud, not very loud, but ~75% usually
I can listen to it each and every hour no matter when as long as I have enough time; never listened to it with anybody, only one if that helps you with anything

>>54858791
only alone*

so it sucks?

>>54858531
I remember this shit. Creepy as fuck.
