~7th song
I'm dressing as this album for Halloween. It's horrifying
It didn't have to be a live album. It didn't have to be a double album. It didn't have to be
This gave me so many chills. Literally made me forget to breathe once, haven't experienced this in a long time.
Wanted to pick favorite songs at first, but after another listen I can't, they're all amazing.
No wonder he hears America snoring, this shit is soporific
First song was good, then I forgot it was playing. Not too bad
5/4 this, 9/8 that, how about 3/5
Had to listen to this a few times to make my mind up on the rating
I had only heard notget before going into this but yeah I still love Björk
if my mood was aligned I would like it even more but its still amazing
It only took 531 albums but it finally clicked for me. This list isn't about 1001 albums that are worth spending your time listening to (given that the vast majority of them are complete wastes of time and do not sound pleasant to the ears at all) but 1001 albums that you /should/ have listened to for the purpose of partaking in musical history and overall general knowledge of what has been. Even if this album does not hold a candle to anything that has been made since then, I can understand how this guy was literally the coolest thing since sliced bread when he was active and touring.
To move on to my review of the album, I can't believe this guy was the Mr. Beast of the 50's, that's crazy
It was pretty unremarkable. Why someone would add the sounds of babies crying and pestering children to music is beyond me. There were a couple snippets of interesting composition (the discordant choir into the fluttering wind ensemble at the end of "The Bed" was quite enthralling in my opinion). But, overall, I feel Lou Reed's ambition outpaces his ability, especially as a vocalist.
I'm only on sweet child of mine but this album pisses me off so much I have to rate it now
all these bands, groups, singers, artists and albums sound the exact fucking same
I had to search up who made "Run to the hills" because I they sound identical to half the songs on this album
i want to rate it a 1 out of protest for how bad it is but it's still not Beatles tier bad but me rating it a 2 does not bring me joy
the last straw was the WOAH WOAH WOAH MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE MY MICHELLE and I'M THINKING ABOUT YOUU YOUUU UUU UUU UUU YOUUUUUU screaming
