Why is Smiley Smile so good?
It's "wonderful"
>>55283273No its won won wonderful
It took the mess that was SMiLE and made the best from it. Very relaxed and stripped down. Little Pad, Gettin Hungry, Wonderful all great classics.
Falls Breaks is a pretty creepy track
>>55283207Pet Sounds is better in every way.
>>55283797Not really. The best Pet Sounds has to offer is God Only Knows and that pales next to Heroes and Villains.
>>55283841fucking kill yourself
just got back from the record store and picked up the unreleased album Adult Child. What a trip this is. Brian Wilson + big band. Not sure how I feel about any of it yet.
>>55283797But Pet Sounds is also better than every other album ever made so that shouldn't be the standard. Smiley Smile is incredible still.
>>55283207Hehe...I listened to this today.
>>55283442Honestly I like it just as much as Smile, although it does lose a lot of points for how disparate and non-cohesive it seems (Good Vibes and Heroes/Villains don't fit at all). And I still don't like She's Going Bald, because it just sounds like a Beatles songmy fav songs: Vegetables, Little Pad, Wind Chimes. those are all fucking perfect
>>55284473the accordian jump-scare in Wind Chimes still gets me sometimes
>>55284767Every time I think about listening to this album, that shit scares me off every time. It didn't even bother me at first, but it just become incredibly terrifying the more I listened to it. The intimacy and the bare sound of that version of Wind Chimes suddenly being interrupted by that shit makes me so upset. It's another one of those weird and bold things that makes the album so unique and exciting to listen to but I just hate it so much.This album is an easy 9/10 though, no inflation.
>>55283982that album's rendition of "shortenin' bread" is a classic
>>55283207listening to this on acid made me tear up because it was so beautiful
>>55285413enjoy it more on 4/20 day
