Dreadful, absolutely dreadful, how is this on the 1001 albums list?????
Bit insulting to my ears this one.
Please just fuck off
Dislike. Very harsh and discordant to make a point.
Unlistenable. 1/5
Sucesión de canciones sin ningún orden ni ritmo especial. No me ha parecido ni de lejos un disco relevante. Ningún tema destacable ni nada que lo haga especial. Lo definiría como un tanto experimental
I actually thought we had hit lowest possible already, but this might have reclaimed the throne? First song is basically a bunch of out of tune noise, more like a soundscape (which can be nice ofc, but not like this). And it just went on the same unfortunately. 0 stars if it would've been possible.
This album has a fun concept and fun witch themed names like "There's always room on the broom" and "If you're a wizard then why do you wear glasses"! That's unfortunately where the fun ended. Some songs are unbearable to listen to and while some songs have brief moments of fun quirkiness ("They don't want your corn, they want your children" to name one) as a whole this has to be a 1.
WTF sounded like some kids in a kitchen with lots and pans and a drunk parent. 0/5
Can't say I was a fan of this. The genre name hit the nail on the head here with this definitely being noise. Some decent moments, but overall pretty trashy sounding and had to skip parts of songs due to them being more annoying than tolerable. Definitely won't be listening to any more of this if I can help it. 1/5
This is rough. It's like they sampled a fax machine, old ADSL router and then smashed in the scaps that Beck decided was "too weird". It has no right to be anywhere near this list and I can only assume that the editor is related to this band somehow. Described as Noise Rock, I describe it as utterly shit
Horrible, weird music
No
j'ai pas tenu
The album artwork is so offensively bad that this record can't possibly be good. Yes, I am correct. This fucking sucks. It never stood a chance.
Very strange.......
No: why is noise rock even a genre? It felt random and totally uncalled for. I can see why so many will go about slandering this album bc it's just not nice. The lyrics are annoying to listen to and the sporadic noises just give you a headache by the end of the first track. Not again.
not a fan
Like in EDM where a pleasant sounding song goes nowhere and you’re sitting there waiting for something interesting to happen. Except this isn’t pleasant. It’s obnoxious people playing out of tune instruments and messing around with feedback. Which would be awesome if it were a hardcore punk album but the lead singer sounds like he just drank a bottle of NyQuil.
I admit I only listened to three songs but only because it sounded like total garbage
Noise rock, not my sound.
I can't for the life of me work out what's on the cover of this. I usually don't start listening until I've made a quick guess... but I have no clue what I'm looking at here. Band and album titles... indie? folk? DIY garage punk? Whatever it is, it seems homemade. WELL! About halfway through the fourth song and I still don't know. Vaguely percussive noises and odd yelling. Sounds like a cross between a skipping record and a countdown alarm in a video game (update: the whole album was like this). Either way, it's not really music. That's not a sledge; I mean it in a very clinical sense - this likely does not meet any commonly-accepted criteria for what a human would consider music. 1/5.
Track 1: 2 minutes in, and I will be amazed if this gets above a single star. Track 3: The singer thought "what would a high school rock band's take on The Downward Spiral sound like?", surrounded themselves with yes-men, and hit record. Track 4: This is noise. Track 6: There's a part of me that wonders if I'm missing something. It's the same irrational, depressed as fuck part that blames myself for 9/11 even though I was 5 years old at the time. Track 7: Fine. I don't like music any more. You win. Track 9: God is dead and is buried behind a Bob Evans
wtf? Bonkers. I hate experimental/avant garde 'music'. Great name though.
Well I can say that noise rock definitely sucks based on the albums I’ve gotten so far. This one had fleeting moments of things that I could’ve enjoyed but none of it lasted before regressing back into annoying, edgy, shitty-sounding rock. Overall it was just a less interesting Kollaps without any increase in listenability.
Absolute nonsense.
gross
Definitely noise rock. I listened once and didn't find it worth a second listen. This was not for me.
Nope.
If I had a tattoo on my face I might give this a 2 rating.
I'm alright wit the noise, especial when it's used in a song intro, but the results, when they bring in the "music" and especially the vocals, are annoying. Maybe someone like Rob Zombie on vocals would have made it more palatable.
I'm pretty sure I didn't have a headache an hour ago.
Noise, almost pure noise. I don’t get it.
Listened Before? N Ugh. More 'art rock'. This stuff is not good guys. I could definitely have lived without hearing this before I die. Anyway, nope. Added to Library? N Songs added to playlist: If You're A Wizard....
Yeah I don't know what that was supposed to be.
Fucking hell
Ughhhhhhhhhh
I like that cover, but man - one track in and you're already hitting me with repetitive noise, huh? This was not for me.
I applaud the intent and the willingness to create awkward music like this. Still, this is all rather unpalatable over toast and cereal of a morning. When should I listen to this? Never?
About half of this album is bad sound effects. It’s characterized as noise rock and I just didn’t get it. Move along!
Not just no, but fuck no
Damn the editors of the 1001 Best Albums book must've been smokin' penis to put this on the list. What. The. Hell. 1/10.
too repetitive for me!
I did not like this album, but maybe I judge it wrong because I just listen the first song.
Not my tempo
