Not my 'cup o tea'.
Not my cup of tea!
Wildly overrated
Very unenjoyable it brought a frown to my face, there was like one okay song
What a blunder
very classic jack white rock riffs, nothing amazing though
Very tonally pleasant. Classic background vocal recording tracks. Was nice to go back in time to when drum sets were recorded in mono and hard panned. Lots of hard panning in general, experimenting with the stereo field. Something many modern recordings don’t seem to do much of anymore.
I don't get why this is so appealing.
this was coasting to a cool 2 until he said "noivus" in "I'm Shakin'." the atrocious vocals of "Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy" are just the nail in the coffin
Heard before: no I know these are random, but why the fuck do I have to listen to THREE Jack White records and only one Count Basie? Or really anyone of any musical import other than this calculating cypher. I mean, he makes Beck look sincere. He works hard, the sounds are great, esp the guitars, but this is forgettable music. Didn't need to hear it before I died. Top tracks: Freedom at 21, Tongue Trash Talker, Take Me With You When You Go (I guess)
This album's black and white cover depicts a pale and somber young woman wearing a funeral bonnet in early 1800's America. A man's hand can be seen stealing a locket from her breast. This image superimposes a blurry swarm of battle droids from some bleak future; their mass further darkening a darkened sky. The cover's promise of uniquely meshed musical stylings from the past and future, layered with themes of war and death, is not kept or even hinted at. Instead we find the generic mean of pretentious rock throughout.
Ugh, otro disco de este sujeto. No le entiendo su ruido, ni su guitarreo.
