1001 Albums Summary

I have already heard this album but just listened to it again , i think its the most experimental record to come out in 60s . While it still has that classic pyschedelic sound of the era velvet underground twists that sound up , its way more experimental and way more noisy. Lou Reed and the velvet underground has influenced many a modern rock band with this sound . Despite all the chaos, Nico brings lush feelings with her beautiful vocals ,the two love songs(femme fatale and ill be your mirror) nico wrote which i think are one of the best love songs ever written, she adds a lot to the album, ill be your mirror proves my point, its the peak of love song writing, i dont think there are many songs that can make you feel the way this song does. I dont want to talk about this album like its a completely noisy experimental rock album but its not a classic chill rock album, of course songs like sunday morning are honestly really beautiful, its just that this album has a lot of genres mixed together, while some songs are lush and beautiful, other songs like im waiting for the man, run run run, venus in furs are just crazy they almost sound like a garage rock band with those distorted guitar riffs. Heroin and European Son were some songs that I didnt think it would be possible to be this avantgarde in the record's era the songs are real noisy and weird. This album is for sure one of the most influential albums of all time. Album is definitely as good as everybody says it is . Its an amazing experience to listen to this experimental/art rock record and songs about love and drug use.
