Not worth anybody’s time.
What's less than zero?
I did not like it. Didn’t finish it, 2.5/10
No, this is without value.
I should've consumed significantly more barbiturates to listen to this album and make it enjoyable.
Album art is pretty cool at least.
I tried to make it all the way through, but I couldn't do it. I don't really like my music to be "challenging" to listen to as the artist says this album was. If there is any reason why I should continue to listen please let me know
This genre is called “noise rock” and it certainly is noisy. I don’t like noise rock very much.
What on earth is this garbage?
There were some fun rhythms, but a noise rock band is - after all - just that. Fun to experience, but not the first nor the best of its kind.
"noise rock band" is how they are described. I'm ready to reclaim my ears, now.
What a joke.
I don't understand the appeal of this kind of music, it's very much just loud noises competing for who can be the loudest. Will definitely not be listening to this again any time soon. Will be my first 1 star
This sucks. Just noise. Gave up after 3 songs. Does not belong on this list. I would give it a 0 if I could.
I couldn’t finish this. How is this a must hear before I die?
To call this music is an insult not only to music, but to the human race and how far we've come as a species. (didn't even finish the album, had 3 tracks left).
Noise
The most interesting part was the silence after the album was over.
I managed three tracks and could put up with no more ! It was just a ghastly noise.Maybe it got better later ? 1*
didn't enjoy this. not my style
Did not finish; too metal/hard.
This was awful.
This was a wild ride of noises and not much of it was that enjoyable. Overall it was hard to get through one listen. Seems like this was if you smoked meth and dropped acid at the same time. Overall not something I could listen to nor want to. 2.3/10
Putting this terrible album as one of the best of all time is some kind of joke.
OMG. It just started right off the bat so awful. A bunch of awful sounds combined to make an awful album. I don’t understand how this is influential unless it’s a blueprint on what not to do? But really- nothing good came from this.
Get bent. Appropriately enough, I actually am getting a root canal this afternoon and after listening to this shit I'm excited about my day improving. I have a morbid fascination at/about any appeal here, and reading some of the actually-published reviews of this is hilarious. Just look at this tripe: "...perhaps the album's most remarkable feat is its utter lack of density: One never gets the sense that anything excessive or unnecessary was utilized in constructing its sonic brickworks." HAHAHA yeah lack of density how profound. This is such a perfect encapsulation of the worst kind of alt-smugness - "oh how different is this!" - it's beyond not good. This is almost literally the sound of being in a metal factory with machines on full tilt. F right off 0/10 0 stars.
It's very noisy with a cacophony going on. I try my hardest to isolate certain sounds and they're obviously talented as there's good guitar riffs and impressive drums but all together it's jarring with sharp sounds added at somewhat random times. The album is to stressful and it's not the BPM that bothers me but the dissonance.
Two words: Shit Sandwich
Nope...an album I endured, not enjoyed.
Im sorry. But its just not my cup of tea as it is too messy & noisy :/
that was HORRIBLE. “best albums of all time” are u on crack 😭
Oh boy. Noise rock. This should go over well in the comments section. I definitely prefer some semblance of melody in the music I listen to and while the genre is not something I want to outright dismiss, I haven't found any bands I can really get down with among the noise rock staples. It's not just the fact that these songs are actively hard to listen to, it's that they are also long and drawn out. For me personally, this is an album I could have gone without hearing.
What a waste of time
wtf
It’s just noise. That’s it. Sorry, not for me… next
I really don't like noise rock. It's stressful and distracting. I just stand there confused and angry.
Fuck no.
There are choices people make in life and these fuckers had the balls to make this shit. Why is this something I must hear before I die. I am more convinced now more than ever I could have become an "artist" and made it on this list. This is getting a rare 1 star from me.
1/10 not my thing
Where’s the zero Probably one of the most painful listening experiences Cover art: it has some merit. Although I suspect the grey is taking over. Not vice versa
Makes ears bleed
This is not music. It is noise. It made me question my sanity. I only made it to the 4th track and bailed because holy fuck this is AWFUL. If I could give it negative stars it would be a -5
I just wasn’t aware how many ‘artists’ are out there making horrible noise, passing it off as music and receiving critical acclaim. Guess I can thank this list for bringing that to my attention…
This is horrible, every song is just a barrage of chaotic noise
BAD NOISE
Absolute s***. Sounds like a bunch of preschool kids have broken into the music room. First album I didn't even finish. First album that gets 1* This album is nothing more than discordant noise.
awful awful awful
Heard it before?: No Enjoy it?: Not at all, experimental music needs to grip you in some way special and this just doesn’t at all, it’s just noise to me personally Favourite song: None, don’t think I will be coming back to this again
It's a shame this thing gets better (linearly, more or less) as it plays, since the first fifteen to twenty minutes are utter dross. I'm grateful for listening, I suppose: The duo format is interesting, and there are a few ideas recorded here. It's mostly really boring noise, and not the challenging kind. Instantly hatable.
Not for, some rock this just to hard rock for me
This was definitely noise. Wonderful noise? Not really. Did it paint a rainbow image in my head? Not particularly.
Wow. I really wanted to not hate it, but I hated it.
terrible
Noise pollution
Made it 4 songs. Sorry, "a mix of sheer abuse and welcome diversity, for a truly challenging listening experience" wasn't for me
Hi ha experimentacions auditives que potser no caldria incloure en la categoria de música. Aquí dos estudiants d'art juguen a epatar l'oient amb un mur de soroll que no inclou cap gest de creativitat ni inspiració. A alguns els hi sembla una genialitat, i surt en una llista suposadament creïble com aquesta, així que els nois poden donar-se com a guanyadors de la pantomima
Horrendous
Unrelenting shit. They have eight albums of this! "Hello Morning", the first song on the album, is ALL you need to hear of this band's entire catalogue.
It sounds like someone is trying to beat the radio shack for more information. Either that or a gang of toddlers got ahold of their parents instrument's. Probably listenable if you're into that sorta thing. This album has about ten seconds of listenable music. But I assume that's just when the babysitter walked in. Don't worry he left quite quickly
That was a very bad album.
Noise rock. Básicamente ruido
I would classify this as "noise" more than actual music
Nope. Absolutely not.
Fucking atrocious.
Not at all pleasant...
Appalling rubbish.
I’ll not be listening to this again any time soon!
Lasted 2 tracks. The genre is noise rock but to me it's just a fuckin noise. 1
So...ummm...this one is not for me... There were isolated, fleeting moments where I thought, "Oh, okay, I can get into...nope, nevermind!" Otherwise, it was all, "Nope and nope."
Really got to be in the right mood to listen to this band. "Noise noise noise noise!" It was okay to get a taste of it but really nothing I would show to anyone. Not sure how or why they made it on this list.
First "did not finish" of 1001. Awful noise rock.
Loud. Very loud. The album title is misleading. Anyway, not in the mood for this - maybe a different day, but it's painful.
Fuck that
Had to immediately turn down the volume after the 1st song started. So far not off to a great start, didn't like the 2nd track. I'm more a fan of lyrics and singing which these songs so far don't have much of. Not to say that I don't enjoy instrumental songs, I just haven't been feeling this album so far. 2 Towers didn't need to be 7 minutes long, it feel like the same part repeated for 5 of those minutes. No progression at all, very boring. Fast forwarded through the last couple songs and wasn't impressed. Not my kind of style.
Ik vind mezelf al behoorlijk open minded dat ik me kan voorstellen dat hier een publiek voor is!
Dit kan je met goed fatsoen toch geen plaat noemen die iedereen gehoord moet hebben. Na 1 nummer was ik al klaar. Blegh!
Ik sta best open voor wat harde beukende muziek maar hier hoor ik werkelijk niks in. Zo a-ritmisch en a-tonaal dat dit echt niet langer dan een paar minuten vol te houden is.
Ik zou willen dat ik 0 sterren of een negatief aantal sterren kon geven.
What were his criteria when it came to choosing the 21st century albums to make the list?
Нда
Boooooooooooooring
That's not music, just 40 minutes of noise.
Album lacking melody, harmony was bad. This type of off-rhythm instrumental metal is not my thing at all.
Maybe I don't understand it but it sounded like noise, not music
Made it through 2 songs
It's just noise.
If that’s their most accessible album, I hate to think what the others sound like!
Sounds like a complete mess
Not my thing at all. Very loud/abrasive.
a bit sloppy, but I get that they're trying abstraction
