Loved it at first, but with each listen I see more and more parts were the band deviates into unwanted territory.
Like a hybrid between the early era of Tyler's career and Flower Boy. Tapping into sofistication with somewhat instrumental tracks, different textures and structuring to really create some stand-out moments.
Disgusting re-run of the first album. The last track is hilariously called 'When the Music's Over' and is one of the worst rock songs by a mainstream band of the 1960s. Even the cover is ass.
Mostly awesome. Beginning is awesome, first 6 tracks are so particular and diverse. There is a rough batch of tracks for me in Within You Without You and When I'm Sixty-Four. But the LP ends with A Day in the Life. I'm really not bothered with it being considered the best album of all time.
Every artist has a White Album in them: a sweeping 93 minutes of experiments. My favorite Beatles song of all time is Dear Prudence. My least favorite Beatles song of all time is Don't Pass Me By. Both featured on the White Album.
Took me completely off-guard. The violence, beauty and sensory images the album portrays are astounding. You could debate which are the moments from the 70-minute opera are the least impactful like Home of the Brave, but every second of this album has been strictly set by its arranger Jason Pierce. It's a complete album.
Not sure if we needed it, but Eminem in the end does deliver between 4-5 instant classics, which is not much less than what the original LP offered as well.
Everything Prince breaks down lyrically and instrumentally exceeds any type of deep analysis. Dude just feels his music. This album is only 30 minutes long and it's a full on party.
A standard jazz-fusion experience, and ends with one of my favorite Miles Davis tracks.
Atmospheric, varied, it just feels in black and white, like the movie, I don't know why. But somewhat short, repetitive, aimless.
Far-side traveling music. Kozelek's writing is not pleasant to listen to, even if evocative.
I don't hesitate to say Mr. Morale has the best 5 opening tracks in a Kendrick record. It's long, but not bloated. It feels curated by Kendrick to paint a full picture. It's one of his artsier records, but it only delivers with incredible experiments like We Cry Together, Auntie Diaries and Mother I Sober.
