really boring record imo, genuinely almost fell asleep during this. the thing that brings it up is the highs on those longer tracks
giving this a re-review because my original was very short and not good at all.
this album changed the way i listened to music, and what i listend to, forever. sonic youth is my favorite band of all time. i love how they blend no wave, alt rock, experimental, indie, and sometimes even a little post rock so seamlessly and beautifully. i feel that those qualities are on full display in this record.
first of all, the first half of this album is just absolutely fucking perfect. i strongly believe ... read more
i fell in love with a BOY. cause i’m QUEER. (i’m running out of opening lines)
i heard Fell in Love With a Girl, and LOVED it. it was basically a perfect indie-punk song. but, after listening to the full thing, i have trouble understanding why this is so highly regarded as an essential garage rock record. i listened to this in the car a couple of months ago, and i found that i got nothing out of it. this feels like a very basic indie rock album i guess???? there’s a few ... read more
these song titles are longer than hulk hogan claimed his cock was.
π¨π¨π¨THIS IS NOW OUTDATEDπ¨π¨π¨
yeah i rated this higher than the miseducation. shoot me.
so, i did say i was taking a break, and i am! but i’ve decided to occasionally pop back to this site when i hear something really good (or really bad) or my opinion on something drastically changed. this is the latter. i originally gave this album a 75/100 and my friend told me to relisten to it, i LOVED it. one thing i didn’t like about this record originally was that i thought her vocals sounded forced, and i don’t think they sounds forced at all. she actually sounds so ... read more
y’all what the fuck is this album gonna be these songs couldn’t be more different sonically. that guitar solo at the end kicks ass though.
NME and Slant are on something cause this is amazing.
when i first listened to this, i thought it was very well produced, but it wasn’t my favorite. i preferred Tidal and FTBC because Tidal was poppier, and FTBC was super experimental and cool. but then, fairly recently, i relistened to this while reading and you already know i didn’t read shit.
this was such an immersive experience. first of all, the lyrics are top notch. she’s so angry and it’s great. her raw emotion ... read more
this album makes me so happy, it’s basically what kept me sane during quarantine. (along with pokémon)
when this album came out, one of my moms coworkers recommended it to her and me because we both love this bubble gum indie rock stuff. we didn’t end up listening to it until late 2019, aka right before quarantine, and it’s been kind of my happy album ever since. the lyrics aren’t always super happy, about break ups and mental health, but it sounds so pleasant ... read more
yeah i love this.
i listened to this for the first time a couple weeks ago and i’ve listened to it like 20 times since. it has an amazing noisy, lo-fi feeling that is perfect for the nighttime. it starts with Little Fury Things, that has J Mascis screaming his fucking brains out “WHAT IS ITTTTTT? WHERE IS ITTTTTT?” in the intro, then the song goes into the noisy pop rock that the band is known for.
one thing that i love about this record is the guitar solos. almost every ... read more
POUNDING OUT AGGRESSION TURNS INTO OBSESSION CANNOT KILL THE BATTERY!!!!! literally up there with some of my fav openers.
anyways, this is METAL. FUCK YEAH!!!!!! RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! super crazy and really fucking fun. this is my new album for when i need a good energy boost. it’s all killer, no filler, and FULL METAL. anyways i just thought i should write a quick review about and album i love. longer review out soon πππ
okay so my sister made me listen to this because she loves Melanie Martinez, and i genuinely hated it. i know that i am not NEARLY big enough to get that much hate, but i am still scared to post this because of what i’ve seen in peoples comments who have given this a remotely bad score.
anyways here’s the review.
i found this to be super boring, and it doesn’t help that i first heard of her through r*pe charges. the lyrics were extremely lackluster, and every damn song ... read more
get get get get got got got got
bro this is fucking insane and i’m obsessed with it. Get Got is genuinely one of my favorite openers ever. it shows off the strengths of this album and what it is but isn’t the best song on the record, which is the insane and kind groovy I’ve Seen Footage. the lyrics on this track are great, the hook is super catchy, and it’s a sonic buffet. what’s keeping this from an 100 is tracks that are having trouble keeping up with this crazy ... read more
this album is for people who have sex, unlike most of the people on this site. that is probably why this only has a 73, which is the amount of people on this site who have touched a person they’re attracted to.
mmmmmmm this is delicious.
this is probably the quintessential concept album along with Pet Sounds, but this is more agreeably AMAZING. so everyone pretty much knows what Ziggy Stardust is about. an alien rock star who’s planet is about to end, etc etc etc. that concept is great. it’s fantastic actually. it helps that the music is just SO GOOD. AND THE LYRICS TOO!!! Five Years is one of the most amazing openers i’ve ever heard and and Moonage Daydream is one of the best songs ... read more
