Trout Mask Replica is the work of a collective—a serendipitous line of charged neurons that wired together to make something truly magical.
Trout Mask Replica is Captain Beefheart's masterpiece, a fascinating, stunningly imaginative work that still sounds like little else in the rock & roll canon.
Trout Mask is a staggering double album about three steps beyond beyond some combination of delta blues and free jazz.
The acme of true psychedelia and the most liberated music ever recorded ... few musicians have ever worked so hard at bucking the perimeter of the fence of the rock song.

Edit: over a year later I see I offended people. Funny enough I ended up hearing 20 minutes of material from this thing and I think it is one of the worst albums I have ever heard
For my 100th review, I decided to challenge myself by reviewing “Trout Mask Replica,” one of the most polarizing albums ever made. I’ve had an empty document with just “100th review” for hours.

You could basically take my Pulse Demon review, shuffle it around a little, and post it here and it'd be the same. Transcends a score so I ain't giving it one.
hello
this album changed my life. honestly. It introduced me to Vox, the concept of Albums, the concept of music theory and it gave me another perspective to look at music as a whole. Doesn't need to sound good, but be good at what it's trying to portray. Id love to give this album a try, but my earbuds are just not ready for this mess. Thank you but fuck you, Trout Mask
Alright gamers, I took my meds. I do like this style of music, but like my medication I can only take so much before i overdose.
