D.O.A. the Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle

I don’t like it, but I think that’s the point. So I hope they don’t mind the 2 stars.

I don't understand industrial/noise music, but props to them for inventing a whole genre.

Some interesting songs in here but couldn’t really get into it in it’s entirety

Listen, I don't have any issues with industrial music. But it DOES need to be at least reminiscent of actual MUSIC. Unfortunately, for the majority of this album, the actual music seems to be missing. It's been replaced by random samples of environmental noise and dialogue. I believe that the TG boys were TRYING to do something groundbreaking here. They just... failed. Not at making a statement. At making music. They definitely made a statement. I can only conclude that Throbbing Gristle seems to be one of "those" bands. You know the ones. The bands that the people "in the know" can't stop raving about but your average music lover can't stand. Sometimes, the critics are right and "those" bands are actually groundbreaking and important. This is not one of those cases, unfortunately. This is an "emperor's clothes" situation. Those who fawn over this album think they're covering themselves in an air of expertise and mystique by praising something so difficult to listen to but, in reality, they're just standing there with their ass in the wind. It's not a good album. It's just not.

Ekki skemmtilegt, en sem einhvers konar ambient er þetta áhugavert og á köflum jafnvel áheyrilegt, þótt það reyni að vera það alls ekki. Sumt er vissulega off, en umslagið er nostalgískt. Gaman að sjá að Ivar hillur voru til 1978. Ég sakna þess tíma þegar græjur máttu taka pláss.

There are two types of albums that one can find in the global lowest rated list: (1) daring, experimental albums that are not suitable for parties or the radio but are more interesting that at least half of the entire 1001 albums list. And (2) albums that are so bad they couldn't be called music. This one is on the latter camp, trying hard to be on the former.

Brutaali. Onneks en kuunnellut kuulokkeilla enkä pimeessä. Hieno creepy kansi. Mutta sisältö? Tulee olo, että Nine inch nails tekee tän paremmin rockina.

If you want to feel the mania and anxiety of getting to an airport with an extra long security line as time clicks away and you ponder your meaning in this fickle world this album is just for you. For everyone just ignore this garage.

I can see how this would be influential, but not something I’m gonna ever listen to again

I really liked AB/7A. I would probably be more understanding of everything else if I encountered it in an art gallery as sound art or something. Not that I would actually sit 40 minutes in a gallery to listen.

eh....

Very dark and very wrong album cover

Strange album, need to listen more

After this album, Spotify recommended Kollaps by Einstürzende Neubauten. Which. I. HATED. Not good, Spotify. Not good at ALL. I get that this was the precursor to a lot of industrial music. But having those short bits in there, like "Death Threats" will only get listened to once, right? It's like the skits on rap albums. Funny once but not over and over. I liked this a little better than Kollaps. Songs like "Weeping" had a nice opening, along with "Dead On Arrival" I kinda dug. But all in all it just made me think of "Sprockets" on SNL and the pretension of that kind of German art Mike Myers was making fun of (like "Blood On The Floor."). So I will give it a little leeway, but not much.

It’s interesting, I’ll give it that.

The kind of music which must exist to push the envelope and test the listener - but it is a test I did not pass.

Not a fan.

This album is basically tied for the lowest score on this site, so you know its gonna be a wild ride. TG are indeed capable of making what actually sounds like \"music\" eg their ironically named album \"20 Jazz Funk Greats\", but here they really threw in the kitchen sink along with some stale dinner leftovers. I don't mind musique concrète but it has to sound somewhat coherent and have some sort of melodic beat tying it all together, eg KLF's Chill out is one of my all time favourite album with found sounds and I can listen to that repeatedly and not tire of it, whereas it would be a struggle to listen to this again given that it's so unsettling. The only redeeming song is their Kraftwerk-esque AB/7A. When TG broke up in 1981 two of their members, Chris and Cosey kept working together and they put out some very interesting electronic pieces that are much more accessible, check out \"Walking through heaven\" from their Songs of Love & Lust album, its just brilliant.

Listened while driving to work, weird driving music but didn't hate it, glad I've heard it once though

Not my style

No thanks

Ymmärrän kyllä mitä tää levy yrittää. Ja välillä onnistuukin siinä. Olla tosi ambientmainen, hämärä, tunnelmallinen, industriaalinen. Oikeastaan tämä ei oo niinkään musiikkia. Vähän samalla tavalla kuin Burialin jotkin kappaleet. Tavallaan ihan siisti kokemus. Ja vähän vaikea arvioida. En kuitenkaan ihan niin paljon nauttinut tämän kuuntelusta, mutta koska siinä oli niitä hetkiä missä se onnistui ihan hyvin niin ei kuitenkaan ihan 1 tähteä ole

I like to be a contrarian for the lowest-rated albums here when I can, but I don’t think I have the heart for this one. Definitely the kind of art that’s meant to be in a gallery and viewed from a critical perspective, but music has never been about the ‘art’ for me. Without much context, I can’t really assign any kind of thematic thoughline here, and the tracks themselves vary so wildly there’s little to grab on to. For the time period this is an impressive piece of avant garde experimentation, but much like experimental film where nothing happens I really think this one is leaving me high and dry

Seriously, I would have been fine with dying without hearing this. But AB/7A was kinda cool.

Undoubtedly pioneers in their field, but that doesn't mean it is pleasant to listen to, albeit with a couple of exceptions here and there.

Had never heard about it until now and it’s always cool to learn new things but I’m not impressed. Probably super revolutionary at the time but barely has any music, being mostly noisy sounds experiments.

The list of artists that managed the jump for me from performance art to music I'd actually listen to on purpose is pretty brief. Laurie Anderson, Meredith Monk... that might be it actually. I thought this was pointless pretentious garbage. Complete waste of time.

An album for people who claim Revolution 9 is their favorite Beatles song.

Goddammit! This is impossible to review. I am very annoyed that I can't just turn this album off and throw it in the trash after discovering the "hidden," extremely creepy artwork of the little girl on the cover (removed in subsequent editions, but... supposedly still on Spotify?!?!) That made me want to throw up. So the already chaotic and disturbing soundscapes went beyond the purely disturbing and acquired a feeling tone of, for lack of a better word, "evil," after that. But then I kept listening, and I heard... genuinely cool sound experiments, very compelling pieces of music. That was surprising. This already is leaps and bounds better than the other industrial records we've had. There are a few moments of pure brilliance and weirdness that was not just tolerable, but kind of cool. I can see why this was influential. Aaaand then I got to the interlude track with the kids and the creepy music. And the interlude of the people talking about infecting people with E. coli. Whelp. This is challenging me, because I'm getting a mix of REALLY COOL SOUNDS and GENUINELY VERY DISTURBED feelings at at the same time. And this is way, way, waaaaaay better than Kollaps, our other pioneering Industrial album on the list. That was a pure 1. I just don't like this, I'm sorry. I don't like the evil, I don't like the attitude of shock music, I don't like feeling that I did all the homework and passed all my classes and here's the art school kids back again at my house making me suffer through sweaty bullshit. I like... music. And annoyingly, there is some good music in here. Reminds me so much of my experience watching "Mad God" last year. Conceptually and artistically flawless... also made me want to throw up. Not a fun time. Ugh! Fine. 2/5. I can see why it's influential, I can't just write it off like my deep senses of disgust wanted me to, and that'll have to be where we leave things.

I didn't think it was the 2nd worst on this list. I got through it and certainly see its influence. My gristle however never throbbed.

One of the best band names to surface as part of this experiment... The album opens with one of the hardest to listen to experimental songs I have heard in recent memory. Really testing the boundaries on who will stick around. I can only imagine how many highs were absolutely destroyed by this album; I hope it came with a warning sticker at least. Hit By a Rock kind of continues in a less in your face obnoxious kind of way. Warbling, feedback, and a distant shout track. This is some avante garde shit right here. I think I may have just been lobotomized by Untied. Was not expecting that. Valley of the Shadow of Death sounds like it was made specifically to induce nightmares. I'm impressed by how unnerving this all feels. Its like the musical equivalent to a carnival funhouse mirror. Hometime is the calmest of the unsettling tracks here... Features a bunch of warbling tones that evoke a horror movie vibe, with a sound of children laughing and chatting overtop. AB/7A is a surprisingly straightforward electronic song. I would go so far as to say it is pleasurable to listen to; a ray of sunlight in this so far house of horror. Ya know, few albums have surprised me quite like this one. It is truly all over the place and demands a LOT from its listeners. I, for one, am not a match. While I understand that this is experimental and probably pushing boundaries for others to succeed in the future, this is not exactly something I would willingly go through and listen to again. That said, while I do not classify this as "good music" I will say that it was incredibly impressive in a surrealistic sense. The sounds and atmosphere's the group created really get under your skin and make you feel uncomfortable in a non-organic sort of way. Would absolutely not do drugs and listen to this one. The only comparable modern act I can think of is Matmos, but even they make songs with rhythms... I'm a soft 2 / 5 here because I think they earn some credit for making me so incredibly uncomfortable.

These noises are all that I could hear the one time when I accidentally took way too many edibles and I felt like my brain was vibrating l. AB/7A was a pretty cool little beat that actually resembled a song My dog listened to this album with me and based on her pacing and nervous behavior while the album was on I going to guess she gave this a 1/5 Not what I really enjoy listening to, but it wasn't horrible this is a 1.500000001/5 so I'll round up to a 2, my lowest possible 2 score. Still better than whatever that trash was that Kate Bush put out

Não peguei o conceito, barulheira desagradável com raros lampejos

It is such a confusing album, but it's interesting to listen to but get boring on a second listen

I actually thought I’d be into this, I enjoy the odd abrasive industrial album but this just didn’t hit. There were slivers of hope here, AB/7A and Dead on Arrival specifically. I get that they were ultimately aiming for a certain “anti-sound” but nah, not for me. 2 stars

This is one of those albums that's not music in any real sense - some of it was close, dead on arrival stuck out, but even that was more just rhythmic bleeps and bloops than anything. It had a strangely hypnotic quality to listen to while I dozed, but not quite enough to send me back to sleep. Intermittent shrieking and jarring noises disrupt anything that could be considered a tune. Hard to judge overall, but it gets a 2/5.

It was very strange and I dont know if I actually liked it, but I also could not stop listening to it 2/5

I am left feeling conflicted, which is not something I expected to say about an album that is such an easy 1 for most people. Some of the songs, if you can truly call them that, had this haunting sound that I liked. I wouldn't listen to it as music, of course. But still, when I did find something I liked in some of the album, it's hard to then give it a 1 star. I guess it gets a 2. I never would have seen that coming. My favourite "songs" were Weeping, Hamburger Lady, and Hometime.

Industrial music just not my cup of tea.

Whew. Ok. I get it but at the same time it ain't for me.

i mean. yes it's influential I'll give the credit when it's due and yes it's pretty much unlistenable. and i have rather high tolerance for music that is just sound collage of someone's grandma talking over construction site sounds, it's just not even interesting in that aspect. i assume that tg's stuff just doesn't work as an album on streaming, i think the performance aspect of it all is what resonated with people sparked inspiration in industrial acts that came after them and build on it's foundations. curious to hear once but listen to one tg album and you've heard it all etc. it's not an album you listen to on regular basis and like that probably wasn't the intent anyway

I'm ok with trying new things, pushing the envelope. This is annoying as hell, but worthy of two stars.

I’m glad this album exists. I’m also glad that I never have to listen to it again. Sounds like a soundscape for an art installation that I don’t *quite* understand. Just when a sign starts to form, it disappears. Better than another Maroon 5 album though.

Industrial. Le pongo un 2 porque alguna no es ruido sin más...

I was uncomfortable the entire time

Very experimental. Perhaps it was influential at the time of its release, but I don't think I'll be listening to this one again.

I'm never ever going to say "Oooh you know what, let's listen to that Throbbing Gristle album while we cook dinner, yes I'd love a glass of Rioja please". That's not to say it wasn't an interesting listen. Definitely one that goes down as an experience!

There are 2 or 3 very nice moments, but overall there's really nothing there that I would want to listen again. Doing experimental things can be cool, but the listener must be able to feel something through it, which didn't happens to me here.

I was expecting worse after everything I’d seen here. But tbh, there were moments that didn’t feel too far off a film score or some ambient music, which is to say, not unpleasant. That being said, most of the album was challenging, and I don’t really want to listen again. But it was artistically interesting, particularly considering when it was released.

god, what is this?

The best song on the album….isn’t really on the album: United. It sounds like Kraftwerk. The rest of the album is a difficult listen. It is interesting, but not something I’d ever recommend to anyone. This album might put you in a trance, or cause you to slowly go insane. Either way, it could be the soundtrack to your nightmares. 2.5/5.

Maybe for tripping in a basement, but this album just doesn't hit at 10am on a Tuesday.

Thats LSD music : )

Noisy and beepy

A hard listen with small nuggets resembling proto industrial, I guess

Eh...I can appreciate that there is some avante guarde merit there but not for me.

😳 Throwing in an extra star on the assumption that they pioneered something.

Just plain weird

This record, more than Kraftwerk, has the DNA of all the great industrial bands of the 90s and 2000s. NIN has been my favorite band since 1994 and while this is no Downward Spiral, I get the reference.

I didn’t really enjoy listening to any of this and it almost left me weeping on the floor. I guess I found it conceptually interesting, but not really something to listen to for entertainment or comfort.

It's throbbing gristle - one can only take so much at a time.

Very different Talks about a lot of morbid topics, hence the name

Not for me

yuck

First dive into industrial metal.

Very weird. The whole talking bits were interesting. Not my jam though

I was pretty happy to see that the songs were short. Turns out, short is very much relative... For a mediocre pop song, two minutes is nice and brisk. For a loop of computer sounds it's... Not. And, like, I even kind of like the idea behind this album, and thought it stabilized a bit later, but man, way too much of this was just unpleasant noise that went on too long.

I don’t even know how to rate this on a standard like/dislike scale.

Industrial. Le pongo un 2 porque alguna no es ruido sin más...

La única canción que me ha gustado ha sido una que puso Deezer cuando el disco se había terminado. Bueno, y I.B.M. era graciosa. Género Industrial, avant-garde. Bueno, sí, un poco ruido de fábrica sí que parece. Eso es cierto que está muy logrado. Por eso, y por I.B.M., lo salvo del 1.

A bit to experimental. Not my kind of soup.

It's like a timecapsule to back when this was experimental and new. Some early examples of like synthwave with AB/7A en dark synth with Hamburger lady. Very interesting.

Odd synth music that was interesting as a concept, but didn’t enjoy

Just noise and didn't care. Sorry. Only so much ambience a gal can handle

Throbbing Gristle, what a name to represent a very interesting album. Beginning caught me off guard big time, each song seemed like I was communicating with an Alien. Weeping and hamburger lady were decent trippy songs. The album ended with some less Alieny music, which soothed me on my bike ride home. This band HAD to be abducted because no other type of inspiration makes sense

Good background music but wouldn't want to listen to consciously

Really didn't care for this at all. It's interesting, but I don't know why I'd ever revisit it. There's no rhythm to it, and I can't get down to something with that is devoid of rhythm. 1.5/5

Meermaals gedacht: "Wtf ben ik naar aan het luisteren?". Net intrigerend genoeg om te blijven luisteren, maar niet genoeg om er van te kunnen genieten

Pas aussi mauvais que les gens semble indiquer sur le site. Mais c’est weird tout de meme. J’ai ecoute vraiment en backgro7nd et ca ne m’a pas derange du tout. Pour etre franc, j’ai mieux aime que taylor swift… 2.90

1978 - Industrial music; Avant-garde music

Experimentació sense creativitat ni ànima. Voluntat d'epatar sense un nivell artistic que la faci rellevant. Dues estrelles i no una per la seva precocitat en algunes de les técniques de gravació i sons, que amb els anys (décades) es reprendrien i millorarien amb escreix

wtf was this

The repetitive threnody sounds didn't really lend to me liking the album. The industrial sounds over the vocals didn't really create a pleasant melody.

This seemed like something I should like a lot, and instead it annoyed me.

Great first song title ofc ;) For the remainder... okay, it´s somewhat intriguing, but then again why would one listen to it more than once? I mean.... really? why??

Demasiado surrealista para mi gusto. Interesante diseño sonoro

I was waiting for this “album” the whole time and it did not disappoint The only nice thing I can say, and I mean only, is that it does a pretty good job of unsettling you; it does have a very strong, ominous vibe that continually evolves over the course of the “album”. The only “song” that I don’t think is an active detriment on this “album” is AB/7A, not particularly exciting but it feels modern and it’s a much needed breath of fresh air from all the sewage on either side I just refuse to call this music, even more than other “albums” we’ve had that really stretch the boundary. It’s soooo edgyyy, where the whole point of this “album” is to upset the listener rather than actively communicating messages. They throw in every trick in the book, from harsh digitized sounds in the first “track” to awful, awful British droning “vocals” with zero talent on display, screaming and crying children, and other just random gibberish sound intentionally designed to clash with itself. I know the “band” probably thought what they were doing was so damn cool but it really does feel like they were giggling to themselves saying “oh everyone’s going to HATE this.” My personal pick for worst “song” on this “album” is Weeping, only because right before that “song” I thought to myself “well at least the vocals don’t make the ‘tracks’ worse, there are none” and then being met with vocals apparently performed by someone straining themselves on the toilet. I remember when listening to our first truly bad album, Rock Bottom, thinking that it really can’t get much worse than that, but this list has proved me wrong over and over again. I still think Trout Mask Replica just edges this one out as the worst “album” I’ve ever listened to because A) it’s twice the length and B) the truly annoying parts of this are fleeting, which was not the case for Captain Beefheart. Regardless, this is absolutely an abhorrent “album” and well deserved it’s placement at the very very bottom of the 1089 on this list

You know that episode of spongebob where hes in sandys dome and hes dehydrated and he looks absolutely awful? that was me listening to this. genuinely thought there was going to a jumpscare hidden in this album. there's a conversation to be had about art being challenging and how that gives it value but man. im going to say it. if i shat on your floor it would be challenging too.

D.O.A. the Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle Throbbing Gristle 1978 Genres: Rock Styles: Art Rock, Experimental, Industrial, Post Punk 1. I.B.M. (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Construida a partir de una cinta encontrada que Mark Eyles envió a Throbbing Gristle. No cuenta una historia convencional: convierte sonidos de cinta, interferencias, pitidos y ruido electrónico en una especie de retrato sonoro de la tecnología y la comunicación mecanizada. 2. Hit By a Rock (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Grabada en directo en el Highbury Roundhouse en 1977. Es una pieza agresiva y repetitiva, centrada en la violencia y la sensación física de ser golpeado, con la voz y el instrumental funcionando más como una descarga que como una canción de rock tradicional. 3. United (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Una versión extremadamente comprimida de la canción más accesible que Throbbing Gristle había grabado hasta entonces: dura apenas 16 segundos. Funciona casi como una burla al formato de single pop, destruyendo deliberadamente cualquier expectativa de una canción convencional. 4. Valley of the Shadow of Death (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Pieza compuesta y grabada por Peter Christopherson, basada en electrónica, cintas y voces procesadas. El título alude al valle de sombra de muerte bíblico y la música crea una atmósfera de amenaza, aislamiento y desorientación, más cercana a una escena sonora que a una canción. 5. Dead on Arrival (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Grabada en directo en Goldsmiths College en 1978. Es uno de los momentos más rítmicos del disco: un pulso repetitivo, feedback y ruido construyen una sensación física de decadencia y energía descontrolada. El propio título, "muerto al llegar", resume la obsesión del álbum con la muerte y la alienación. 6. Weeping (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Compuesta por Genesis P-Orridge y Ewa Zajac, con cuatro tipos de violín acústico procesados mediante eco. Es una de las piezas más melancólicas del disco y utiliza el llanto y la tristeza como materia sonora, aunque la interpretación permanece distante y extrañamente fría. 7. Hamburger Lady (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Inspirada en una carta del médico y artista de correo Al Ackerman que describía a una mujer con quemaduras extremas. Genesis convirtió parte de aquella descripción en una recitación casi clínica, acompañada por una electrónica disonante y angustiante. La canción trata sobre el sufrimiento físico extremo, el cuerpo reducido a carne y la supervivencia médica en condiciones inhumanas. 8. Hometime (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Pieza compuesta, grabada y arreglada por Cosey Fanni Tutti. Incorpora sonidos y voces infantiles dentro de una atmósfera doméstica aparentemente tranquila. Lo cotidiano se vuelve inquietante: la canción explora la intimidad, el hogar y la extrañeza que puede esconderse detrás de una escena familiar aparentemente normal. 9. AB/7A (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Composición de Chris Carter y uno de los experimentos más cercanos a una pieza electrónica convencional del álbum. Utiliza sintetizadores, ritmo y una estructura mucho más reconocible que el resto. Más que contar una historia concreta, funciona como una exploración de la música electrónica y de las posibilidades de la tecnología como instrumento. 10. E-Coli (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Una pieza enigmática construida a partir de sonidos y material grabado, cuyo título hace referencia a la bacteria Escherichia coli. Evoca contaminación, enfermedad y amenazas invisibles al cuerpo humano. Como buena parte del álbum, transforma algo cotidiano y aparentemente neutral en una fuente de inquietud. 11. Death Threats (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: No es una recreación artística: la grabación fue tomada sin modificar del contestador automático de Throbbing Gristle. Son amenazas de muerte reales dirigidas al grupo. La pieza elimina completamente la frontera entre música y realidad y convierte una situación de hostigamiento en parte del álbum. 12. Walls of Sound (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Grabada en directo en cinco lugares diferentes durante el año anterior a la edición del disco. Es esencialmente una masa de ruido, feedback y sonido saturado que funciona como una barrera física. El título describe literalmente la experiencia: el sonido deja de ser acompañamiento y se convierte en una pared que ocupa todo el espacio. 13. Blood on the Floor (★☆☆☆☆) -Context: Grabada en directo en el Highbury Roundhouse en septiembre de 1977. Es una pieza breve, violenta y física que vuelve a la sangre y al cuerpo como imágenes centrales. Después de toda la abstracción y la electrónica del álbum, el disco termina con una imagen extremadamente material de violencia y muerte. -TOTAL = ★☆☆☆☆ (1)

this shit sounds like some anxiety inducing fears to fathom background music that you would hear when being chased to your DEATH.

I feel like I've heard all that I've needed to hear in terms of industrial music after 900 or so albums here. Which one of them is truly essential? Like, there were moments later on in the album that I would've expected to hear coming into an industrial album, sure, but things are occasionally broken up by, what I can only consider, "non-music" pieces. I'm also confused as to why the group's supposedly first single "United" is sped up to 16 seconds here. I guess it's "experimental" to do so. By most accounts, it seems that this group was among the pioneers of industrial music. Not sure whether to thank them or shame them, though.

Gee, really horrible.

Many of the reviews for this album indicated that you have to spend time with it to appreciate it and no thank you

This has to be one of the worst albums on this list so far. I wish I able to give it zero stars.

I liked the out there experiment with different sounds. It definitely suits the name throbbing gristle ngl. But way too screechy for me unfortunately.

Almost 800 albums in, one of these had to be the absolute worst. Here it is!

Pass

Silly

Dear fucking lord this is awful

que álbum irritante, tá me dando dor de dente de tão incômodo.

This whole album just has creepy vibes, but not good creepy. Like I'm listening to something I'm not supposed to

полная хуйня

Its selections like this that make me question this entire thing. This is quite literally not even music like wtf is this doing here

I’m not sure I truly believe this is a 1 Star record. People use words like “unlistenable”, but I struggle to fully understand that because half of this record isn’t even music! “Uninteresting” perhaps, but it’s not as aggressively obnoxious as The Residents or Lightning Bolt. In my rating system, 3 Stars is the baseline, 2 Stars are albums I thought were bad/boring/not worth talking about, and 1 Star is for ‘notably bad’ records - records that are bad enough that they’re actually worth talking about. This is very barely the latter category. If other people didn’t have strong feelings about this, I don’t know that I’d think it worth talking about either… but here we are.

This made me gag...

Throbbing Gristle? No thanks. I'm so full. Couldn't eat another bite.

Knowing this is currently the lowest rated album in the project, I went in with an open mind but still had low expectations. This did not exceed those expectations. Maybe things could’ve been different if it felt like there was actual music in here somewhere. AB/7A had promise but it didn’t go anywhere. At least now it’s over.

I am open-minded but skeptical.

1027 - "Here's your juice box and orange slice. Thanks for coming." (DOA is right, and please DNR)

Why the fuck did I have to listen to this before I died

For me this was a bad album, it feels like the perfect example of taking being experimental way too far to the point where it’s impossible to listen to

I can appreciate the artistic angle and all but like the title of the 6th track this album was Dead on Arrival for me. Could not finish.

Unlistenable.

lol. The experience is almost worth it for high of AB/7A.

I’d rather have died than listen to this.

Meu deus do céu que enrolação, tá pedindo pra levar 1 estrela. Tá de sacanagem esse álbum. Pra ser conceitual primeiro tu tem que fazer a primeira camada boa, depois vai pra baixo. Foda-se. Vão tomar no cu.

Disco doido. Num tem nem música. Só ruídos

Utter trash!

They say great art is often unappreciated in its time. Well unfortunately bad art is often appreciated in its time

Recording ambient noise and calling it art is like when they filmed that empty plastic bag flying around in American Beauty

I feel like these would be sounds accompanying a weird modern art installation. It's not really music, and I don't really get it. Not sure if I needed to hear this before I die.

I took the time to listen to "the lowest ranked album" on this list. And, correct, it's virtually unlistenable. Trent Reznor may have found a silver lining in this noise. While NIN truly turned industrial music into true art, this is the cave drawings to Reznor's Sistine Chapel. Sure, let's not erase them. But my kids could put together better industrial music today.

Pretentious bollocks!

Not for me.

If you like listening to dial up moderns, pocket dialing, and someone trying out all the presets in their new keyboard, this is the album for you. Absolutely awful.

Bit unusual this one, can’t say I’d play it again but it’s still better than anything that C**t kendrick lamar has done

Well I made it to the end- I certainly won’t make it back to the start. A quick google tells me the act sold 200k albums… I bet of those nobody listened to the album twice! Worst album so far on this journey and I can’t imagine one been this bad again. 0/10

I’m sure I’m not the only person to think the same way 1.3 out of 5

Nope. Shite.

NUR GERÄUSCHE TF

This sounds like something that Maude Lebowski would listen to.

Okay there's some bits of music contained in there, but absolutely none of it was songs.

muy conceptual

Literally just noises.

Nope

super distinct industrial sound from the late 70s, but i struggle to find any enjoyment from it.

Professionelles Akustikkppeln ohne den Hauch von Musik. Schrecklich.

I had to see what all the hubbub was about. First off, don't like the album cover. First track- "okay weird intro" Seond track- "Double intro?" Fourth track- "Finally, music!...?" and then I skimmed through the rest of it... what the fuck is this? Apparently as long as you were a group of blokes in the 70s this fool thinks it's worth a listen?

This made me feel the same way the movie Eraserhead did. I hated everything about it and my life is now forever worse for letting it into my brain.

Oh, I get it. This is an album the same way a blank canvas with one red circle is a painting. This is the sort of “art” pretentious ass holes claim to love just because all us stupid normal people don’t get it. Shove your noisy piece of shit album back up your ass, Throbbing Gristle. 0⭐️

This album was disturbing on so many levels, creepy, and just plain ew. There is something very wrong with this. Never had a band terrify me with their music. Gross! Never again. Zero stars

Felt like I'd been butt-dialed by a tumble drier. Atonal noise with barely audible mumbling over the background, feels like an awful art gallery piece. Not sure who this had an influence on but will avoid their stuff

Based on the album cover and the reading I have done on the insert in the album, I am not listening to this. It’s all well and good to be bad boy rebels until children are victimized. Fuck this.

Nope. Noise to me.

Nope

Dislike.

I don’t know who is more ridiculous and pretentious: the “artist” themselves thinking this was actually of quality, or the fool(s) on this selection board who actually green lit this shit.

This is probably the worst thing I’ve listened to. We had some crap on this list but might be the first time I would’ve given something a 0.0. Turrible, turrible, knucklehead, turrible.

I counted exactly one song I thought was somewhat tolerable. I’m down with some out there music, but can’t get behind random annoying sounds. Nothing about this is interesting. 0/5

What even was this? Not good.

Literally just noise. I can't imagine anyone actually enjoying this.

Oh great. I finally get the worst rated album on this site. That means nothing gets worse than this. That cover is something else completely, I don't even want to get started on that.

I mean this is garbage but then again there are many equivalent on this list.

Nearest i can come to a positive is that ‘weeping’ at least has the constituent parts of a song. Not a good song but beggers cant be choosers on this album. ‘Ab/7A’ also has potential to be considered actual music. Abysmal.

It felt like I had been kidnapped by aliens.

I knew going into this, that this was the lowest scoring album globally, so I sort of expected to hate it. And... I don't? I mean it's not something I particularly want to listen to, and honestly probably about 50% of it isn't really music so much as clips of people talking bollocks over droning, but it's less offensive than a number of other albums this generator made me listen to. I still hate that Liars album with a fiery passion, but this cannot inspire that much anger in me. I am never, ever, ever going to listen to it again but, you know, I sort of understand why some people might? 1/5 (but it genuinely might have got a 1.5 out of me if the option were available)

6/26/26. Not for me. Noticed a lot of sampling used and understand that it helped establish industrial as a genre, but thought it was largely un-listenable. Maybe my opinion will change down the road!

I gave this a fair shot. I did. But it's more like a Throbbing Headache if you ask me. It's just noise, man.. and not even the good kind that grows on you. Feels like listening to a bunch of arguments happening at once. Spins: 1 Playlist Additions - AB/7A

I hate this.

This is not music

wow

Sorry, no

i don’t even know if this is music for real.

Insert "This is noise" meme

Just too experimental for my taste. However, I do acknowledge that this may have been ahead of its time, and while nowadays these sounds would be easy to make, back in the day this may have been among the first ones of these kinds of albums.

I usually give albums I’m relatively unfamiliar with a couple of listens to get a true feel for the album. Didn’t need to listen twice to this one. Not my thing

Truly just an awful waste of vinyl that this crap was even printed. I cannot even imagine thinking this was worth listening to in a drug induced haze of my college youth. Total crap, and if given the choice I would probably prefer a 5th Radiohead album on the list. :)

It’s finally my turn to trash on the worst reviewed album on the website 🥹. Yeah it’s bad. I don’t mean this in a reductive way or something, but most of this isn’t really music. It’s just noises. It’s not pleasant noises either. It sounds like it was engineered to be unsettling and disturbing and annoying. So maybe it’s redeemable as an art project of sorts. But as music? Not really.

Yea, fuck that, nah

Look, I have to go 1 on this one. The music is just bad. But I agree this is a good addition to the list. It is something I’m glad to hear once before I leave this plane of existence. The noise and dissonance ideas here will eventually be used by Radiohead, Flaming Lips and Wilco to create Kid A, Soft Bulletin and YHF. I enjoyed it much more than other albums I voted 1.

At moments, it was unsettling to listen to.

I couldn't. I just couldn't

loco no todo sonido es musica. me quiero matar. Ab7A me gusto un poco el inicio. siento que es buena musica para una peli en el espacio que estan flotando

I sat on a train in the morning on the way to the city tired as fuck and listened to this pretentious industrial crap. I really do not care for this at all.

the worst thing I've ever listened to. wish I could give it 0 stars.

Eh. I love musique concrete but not this industrial music. Nothing id enjoy

I can see this used as a soundtrack in some contemporary art museum for some conceptual art that looks interesting but does not fully make sense. It would fit there just perfectly. However, when talking about the actual music to listen to, I want a real fucking burger, not this pretentious nonsense that is making fun of the listener.

These aren't songs they are tracks and all of these tracks suck ass. I'm all for experimental but this is just a waste of time. This is the kind of crap that pretentious people say "this is genius!" . It's not. It's really, really, really not good. I don't think they'll let you do 0 stars here so I guess it gets 1

I have no idea what the hell I just listened to. Pre-Avalanches executed horribly. “They should have left it at 1000 albums…” 1

This album sucks, just a bunch of random electronica noises highly distorted or like dual British television segments playing in the background to some static type shit, Hank Hill said it best: "oh god! Its all toilet noises!"

Interesting in a what is music way. What is art? Is it music, are apparent sounds, recordings of happenings music? They are obviously structured and titled but With very little in the way of note or chord progression. When it did what is considered musical, ABA7 it didn’t exactly stretch the basics of known music. It's more of the installation art than anything else field, the pile of bricks of this list. Is it pushing boundary and advent garde vs is it simply a promotion excercise by supposed artists and/or the Emperors new clothes. In the end, it wasn’t as taxing or hard a listen as the average score on here had me believe. All a bit creepy down to the cover.But on singularly music experience I still have to give it 1 Star

Upon listening to this album, I'm legitimately convinced whoever created this list had a mission to get people to hate music

Not actually music A collections of noises to irritate someone 1

Schizo breakdown the album. I was going to give it 2 stars for having the niche use of a midnight scary album to spook you a bit, but i played this in the car in the middle of the day and some of the sfx made me think my car was breaking, so nah screw this thing.

Does it come with the calendar?

This shit felt like a lame ass prank and I promise we are not laughing.

Wish I could rate negative numbers. This isn't even music. What record producer thought, hey this is worth putting money out to produce and sell? Worse thing ever.

Desde que la primera canción fuera el ruido de cuando uno se conectaba a Internet por el teléfono fijo por casi 3 minutos, sabía que esto iba a ser otro álbum pretencioso. Infumable, inescuchable, no loterimné y con razón es el peor calificado de los 1001

Throbbing Gristle – Genesis P-Orridge, Cosey Fanni Tutti, Chris Carter und Peter Christopherson, allesamt Engländer, entstanden aus der radikalen Performancekunstgruppe COUM Transmissions – veröffentlichten 1978 ihr zweites Studioalbum auf dem bandeigenen Label Industrial Records und lieferten damit ein Dokument, das bis heute schwer einzuordnen ist. Die Aufnahmen entstanden in den Industrial Records Studios in London, live im Highbury Roundhouse und am Goldsmiths College sowie an einer Reihe namenloser Orte, deren Roheit im Klang spürbar bleibt. Das Ergebnis ist kein Album im konventionellen Sinne, sondern eine Bestandsaufnahme: roh, präzise und ohne Zugeständnisse. Dreizehn Tracks, die kein einheitliches Stilkonzept verfolgen, sondern ein Prinzip: jede vertraute Form so weit dehnen, bis sie bricht. „I.B.M." eröffnet mit synthetischer Kälte, „Hit by a Rock" zerlegt Punkstruktur durch bloße Absicht, und „Dead on Arrival" entwirft einen Tanzgroove, für den es 1978 noch keine Tanzfläche gab. Im Zentrum steht „Hamburger Lady" – eine Komposition, die nicht begleitet, sondern einschließt: ein medizinisch distanziertes Textfragment über schwere Verbrennungen, unterlegt mit mäanderndem Synthesizer, brutal gerade durch seine Sachlichkeit. D.o.A. war nie darauf angelegt, gehört zu werden – es war darauf angelegt, zu bleiben. Throbbing Gristle schufen hier das Vokabular für etwas, das damals noch keinen Namen hatte, und zerlegten es im selben Atemzug. Wer nicht genau hinhört, hört Lärm; wer es tut, begreift die Kontrolle hinter der Störung: jede Dissonanz gesetzt, jede Pause kalkuliert, jeder Schockmoment konzeptuell verankert. Ein Album, das 1978 wie ein Einschlag wirkte – und bis heute nicht verhallt ist.

Not for me. 1/5

Somehow excels equally at being annoying and boring. That's a difficult and unforgiveable target to hit.

Horrible, it was just noise. Like, what?

Woke up with a massive headache today, this obviously made it worse. Also why is it the third and final report when this is only the second album....

Meh, I've explained my position these kinds of albums plenty of time, I don't need to do it again. But what intrigued me was seeing they had live albums. I wonder how that works.

Traumatising

Ok, look. If there was a zero rating, this would be it. It is thebworst thing I have had the displeasure of listening to and believe me when I tell you I have heard some shit in my day. Atrocious.

Sure it's terrible. It's a boring, not especially inventive, series of sound collages. But I would still prefer this over Napalm Death.

Weird. Extremely experimental. Not my cup of tea.

This was completely terrible. Like a pretentious student sound design project. Not a single track on there recognisable as a song. 1/5.

Nope.

1/5

I can't say that this album was good. There has to be an audience for this, given the amount of listens, but it was really not great at all. The first song was just noises and I guess they're maybe trying to show something, or it's a set of sounds that people can use in their low-budget films, but enjoyability-wise, this was awful.

After I surprised myself by liking the Liars album, I said this project was converting me to noise rock. It turns out I do still have limits though.

Ass

Barely qualifies as music. On multiple occasions I could not work out if I was hearing the album or random shit going on around me. Nonsense. 1/5

Wow. Can't believe they took the time to remaster this horrendous piece of music. Can't believe I sat through all 41 minutes at 52 seconds. Painful listen. 1/5

I bet ethel cain listened to this and was like damn they ate. and for that I appreciate throbbing gristle but other than that I do not appreciate throbbing gristle. not all bad but id just never ever ever listen to this.

Pas de quoi s’énerver : je trouve que c’est pousser l’expérimental trop loin et donc vraiment inintéressant mais pas plus agaçant que les gros prouveurs dans les reviews mondiales qui ont mis 5 pour prouver qu’ils sont différents

No and never again. Someone was having a bad day, decided everyone else needed to have one too, and added it to this list. Was there a bet that they could get people to listen to this album?

I feel like Don Draper trying to listen to Tomorrow Never Knows. This isn’t an angry 1 but it’s a 1

I no longer have the patience, stamina, or desire to understand why the man recording the saw mill means fascism is coming to 1970s western Europe.

wtf

Inte genomgående totalt kasst musikaliskt men projektets kanske värsta artistnamn sänker det hela ett snäpp ytterligare.

41 minuter tech demo. Nej tack.

Inte njutbart alls

Jag trodde jag visste vad oljud var...

Absolute, unlistenable garbage

It’s not even music, it’s just noise

01) I.B.M. - 1,0 02) Hit by a Rock - 3,0 03) United - / 04) Valley of the Shadow of Death - 1,0 05) Dead on Arrival - 3,0 06) Weeping - 2,0 07) Hamburger Lady -2,0 08) Hometime - 1,0 09) AB/7A - 3,0 10) E-Coli - 1,5 11) Death Threats - / 12) Walls of Sound - 2,0 13) Blood on the Floor - 1,5 TOTAL: 1,91 (19/100) This is not music.

Stock music for an avant garde college student film. So if you're looking for that type of album before you die, here you go.

Yikes. Starting with a bunch of feedback is a really tough intro. Can't believe it's the whole song?!

Makes EDM sound like Beethoven.

Justo cuando este proyecto me esta dando muy buenos albums aparece el primer 1/5 This is just noise. The kind of thing you expect to hear in the background of an obscure and disturbing modern art display.

Not music. Just noise.

Not even music, really. I think only a very tiny proportion of people in the world have lived a worse life for having never heard this, so how anyone could possibly include it in a list titled "1001 albums you must hear before you die" is beyond me

This was absolutely awful - I had to skip through it. Industrial-electro-synth-noise. The only track that remotely resembled music was ‘AB/7A.’ Everything else was just screeching noise or random, low-fi, conversations that seemed almost accidentally or secretly recorded or just low-fi recorded from a movie/tv show. If I could rate this ‘0’ I would.

Neat for the time it came out, but I wouldn't listen to it again. Hamburger lady is geniuely unsettling

Just the worst.

Pretty obvious

For the most part, this is very literally not music. There is a ton of noise and sounds and I did not enjoy listening to it.

Is this album on here as a joke? Why is the AOL dialup noise considered a "song"? This is different enough that I can see why people would like it, just because it's contrary and different. I don't tend to enjoy things that are different just for the sake of being different, but with no real new or interesting or enjoyable about them. There were a couple of songs I almost enjoyed, until they kept going and ruined it.

Even Sonic Youth says ‘WTF?’ I don't see why this is included in the list. And surprisingly this album has been remastered! Still edges Bob Dylan though.

Felt like just noise with occasional, far off in the distance reverberations that originated from snippets of music. Surprisingly this is not the most jarring thing I've listened to.

If I could id give it a 0 star rating. Absolutely awful.

what the actual fuck. i would listen to eerie movie soundtracks if i wanted to. thats not something i relate to

Man…….

Ik snap nie

Why

1/10

?????????????????????????????

muy malo no me gusta en ningun aspecto

throbbing gristle being the band name is ironic because that’s exactly what this sounds like. Holy hell this was a tough listen. Funny enough, I dived into some of their other work and there was stuff I almost find somewhat interesting. This, however does not scratch that itch for me. I could totally see this in some really shitty low budget horror movie soundtrack.. (in the best way, truthfully) think the original Terrifier

The problem is that this is ambitious but has no sort of aim. It is just noise and that is fine because it is challenging what music can be but it does not even try to set up that dynamic for us. These guys invited industrial music and that is cool but it’s just noises and the music portion is bad besides the sped up version of untitled and AB/7A. Awesome synth on AB/7a but it can’t bring a whole album up. I wish this was just more interesting but I am glad for its impact

Reminds me of the stuff I heard in my dreams when I took melatonin. No thanks.

After a few tracks I tried to describe this to someone as if someone hooked up a bunch of electrodes to equipment in a poorly run kitchen, I looked down and the name of the song was hamburger lady. When the first track started I thought ok this could be a cool intro, but no it was just the “song”

Just not enough music to make it enjoyable.

oof

It just sounds too much like noise for my taste.

We can only assume this is the album Jeffrey Epstein tortured his victims with

Me to myself: “have an open mind, how bad can it be?” Turns out it is actually that bad. Still better than Kid Rock though.

Hard to know how to rate something that tries as hard as it can to not be music. It's certainly interesting from the perspective of being an experimental work - a sort of exploration of sound... but is it a good album? Is it essential listening before you die? I'm not sure it is. I'd much rather have had a good album to listen to that is trying to be music (even if it's really weird music) than something like this, but I don't hate it outright. Part of me wants to treat it fairly neutrally and give it a 3, but I also feel that wouldn't be fair to a number of 2/5 albums I've reviewed that were maybe not "better" than this, but were certainly more enjoyable to me.

Truly one of the worst albums I have listened to. (Do I have to give it 1 star...?)

This really is a pile of crap. A mystery it was ever recorded.

Listened Before? N Wow, I sure am glad someone spent their time remastering this pile of crap. Also, what's with the pedo shot of the little girl? Gross. Added to Library? N Songs added to playlist: United (because it's 16 seconds long)

I think I'm missing something...? I don't get it. If I could give this 0/5 I would.

1.5

The worst thing an album like this can be is boring. No reason for a lot of these tracks to be as long as they are.

This album does have a place in music, but cannot have a place in my ears. Very terrible to listen to.

1/10 - I understand how this is the lowest rated album on the list.

Track 1: een boel piepjes. Track 2: wat onverstaanbaar geblèr van ver weg, op een bedje van guitaargemurmel. Track 3: een cassettebandje wordt vooruit gespoeld. Track 4: een of ander vrouwke brabbelt wat door het geluid van een wasmachine heen, gevolgd door een stel kerels. Track 5: er wordt (heel lang) gepield op keyboard en gitaar, het lijkt in de verte zowaar op muziek. Track 6: Iemand slaat een paar gitaarsnaren aan, een paar Engelse woorden zijn te herkennen in het gemummel, wat sloom gekras van andere instrumenten. Track 7: het geluid van een raceauto op een Commodore 64, en Stephen Hawking die een Big Mac bestelt. Track 8: een kleuter vertelt een verhaaltje. Track 9: een slechte imitatie van Jean-Michel Jarre. Track 10: een eng muziekje uit de TV-serie van Robin Hood, met radiogebabbel ertussendoor. Track 11: onverstaanbare mensen aan de telefoon. Track 12: storing. Track 13: het optreden van een punkbandje, met als zanger de boer uit Shaun 't Schaap, opgenomen vanaf de achterkant van het podium. Ik hoop dat dit inderdaad het laatste verslag was.

Ok, eerlijk is eerlijk. Het boek heet ook gewoon '1001 albums' en niet '1001 muziekalbums'.

Het begint veelbelovend met een soort computerachtige matrixprinter. Ik mag hopen dat er iets meer muziek in gaat komen, anders gaat dit een hele zware dobber worden. Nummer twee klinkt alsof de jengelende zanger geraakt is door een steen. Oh wacht, zo heet het nummer ook. De tering zeg, dit valt echt in de categorie Pere Ubu. AB/7A is het enige 'normale' nummer zo te horen. Mijn Brabantse luistermaat had dit zowaar bijna 5 sterren gegeven. Ik ben niet boos, ik ben zelfs niet teleurgesteld. Ik moet alleen maar heel hard lachen. Er staan tegenwoordig geen datums meer bij zo te zien, dus ik weet niet zeker of het een 1-april grap was. Hoe hard ik het ook probeer, dit soort 'muziek' is niet aan mij besteed. En dan sta ik er nog voor open ook, ik heb het aandachtig helemaal uitgeluisterd. Alsnog kan ik weinig anders dan 1 ster geven.

Terrible day to have ears.

This album is psychotic.

I couldn't not even a little bit. Sigh. I am trying to be open but didn't get it. Something for everyone.

As album it is punk as meant to be, for me personally no appeal

If I could give it 0 stars, I would.

I made it up until Hamburger Lady, so about half way through. Definitely more of an art piece than what I would consider music. Did not like it all and not interested in listening to it again. one star.

Conceptually interesting. Practically unlistenable. I feel that if you were there, listening to this live, it would be an incredible experience. Transcendental. But just listening to the music on my morning walk... Yeah it's tough.

Clearly the worst album on this list. Not that I'm against experimental music, I most certainly am not, but this is anti-music, both in execution and in ethos. Genesis P-Orridge gives me the heebie jeebies, and the whole pandrogeny thing is beyond creepy and weird (derogatory). Terrible music for and by terrible people. No redeeming qualities.

This was an unnecessary contribution to the world.

This one scared me. I actually really liked some of the sounds on here, but there were just as many sounds that I was not a fan of. It was creative, but maybe too much so. While I appreciated this, and was proud to have listened to the whole thing, I just did not like the way it made me feel. Probably won’t be listening to it again anytime soon

The lowest-rated album on the list! Excellent! I'll probably love it! Edit: Nah.

I once went for a free gig at an underground venue where I would volunteer sometimes, pulling pints and that shite. The band, an electronica threesome, took to the stage and began their speil: "Some eyes see the truth" He paused for well over 30 seconds. Someone coughed. "some eyes see under..." He pulled away from the mic to breathe in. Quick as a goth on a roller coaster he pressed his lips firmly against the mic and grunt-bellowed "ZOMBIE EYESSSSSSSS" before the band started playing something like track 5 off this album. All that to say, Throbbing Gristle have irreparably damaged this planet. The root cause of 9 / 11 was this album. Probably.

horrible, unlistenable, not even music

I guess experimental music just isn't for me. I’m no expert and I really struggled to enjoy these tracks. The opening songs practically gave me a migraine. While a few tracks like 'AB/7A' worked as decent instrumentals, the rest just felt like subliminal noise echoing in my eardrums.

toilet sounds etc music doesn’t have to be pleasant to listen to. it can be difficult, abrasive, off-putting, unsettling, or any number of other things. the problem with this album isn’t that it’s unpleasant or discordant. it’s just not very good

nah

A solid wall of fart noises would have been more enjoyable to listen to.

I like industrial music but this is honestly utter garbage

Just sounded like noise

I didn’t doubt this album’s placement as the worst album on this project, but now I understand. When my Finch app asks me for what I’m grateful for today, I will write that I’m grateful I know and appreciate good music because it is not this.

Just noise. That's all this was. What a waste of time.

Sucks

What the fuck. That was not music.

It's like listening to a drunk person falling over in a data centre. Absolute waste of my time. 0 stars would be generous

Not everything here is music — dudes talking and shuffling papers doesn’t count. But it’s not the worst thing on this list. I’m tempted to give it a 2, out of spite, because I know the “artists” want to be exceptionally irritating. But it’s really not an album you’d play through more than once, if you got that far. Plus, i just had to rate an Eric Clapton album higher than i woukd gave liked, so no grade inflation is allowed here. It’s a 1.

Just, no. This had no structure at all - I truly do not understand why anyone would willingly listen to this.

What do you do while you listen to this? Stare at a wall?

I usually never skip tracks when listening to a record, but I skipped so many here. I can respect what they were trying to go for. This was not for me, and it doesn't have to be. Favourite Track(s): AB/7A Least Favourite Track(s): I.B.M., Weeping, Walls of Sound, Hometime

Best Song: None. Worst Song: All. Overall: I fucking hate this. Music that is so purposeless, scattered, and directionless that it sounds accidental, yet is somehow made all the worse through the knowledge that this actually is intentional. What I'm hearing is what they wanted. This isn't unapproachable in the sense that it is hard to get past initial barriers to appreciate some sophisticated internal something, this is unapproachable because there's nothing to approach. It is all noise, obscuring nothing. This has the aesthetic value of a pit mine. This is the ugliness of industrialization. This is useful only as a reminder that we, as humanity, have lost our way. We cannot allow ourselves to live in a world that sounds like this.

Idt I’m enough of an intellectual for this

This was awful. Just random noises with no musicality

look i'm not going to listen to list, fuck you, i'm rating it a 1 so it doesnt feel like something i have to get to eventually

Nope!! Everything deserves a score. .1 Can’t enter that so I will try to give a zero if I can. Otherwise 1

Didn't get this.

A bit too experimental for my taste

Ummmm…

Altså, jeg kommer nok ikke til at høre det igen ...
