There's no much I can say about this album. It makes for an enjoyable rehash of 60s sunshine pop but nothing really grabs me aside from The Love Song Of B. Douglas Wilson.
Many criticize this album, and Dry Cleaning as a whole, for being boring. What if I tell you that is in fact the band's main appeal? This is what the color gray sounds like and I like the color gray
Este es un disco muy agradable. Me encantaría poder decir algo más pero el álbum no deja mucho de que hablar. Son buenas canciones pero hay una clara falta de ambición artística. Este disco funciona más como un documento histórico que como una obra de arte en sí misma. Aun así es muy recomendable, se siente como la versión veracruzana de Gunfighter Ballads
This album taught me how to be a woman
This album has impacted my life so much that I can barely make it justice. To me there's a before and after listening this album. And any album that can shift someone's whole relationship to music must be a very special. This, to me, might be the most special of all
This albums is really straight forward and makes for a very easy listen. It also feels inexplicably surreal. Those are three compliments that I'm not used to giving to the same album.
I'm an enormous Smog fan. Pretty much everything Callahan released under that moniker I consider to be either good, great, or just plain amazing. That's why I was nervous first checking what he did after leaving that name behind and, let's be fair , 2007's Woke on a Whaleheart wasn't the most promising debut. I'm happy to say this album blows the former out of the water. This album makes me understand the name change, there's no character, there's no ... read more
While it's definitely noticeable that the band members have all found and nailed the sound they want for the band, the inclusion of Mike Patton, despite being a very welcome one, doesn't really work out to its intended level until later albums. This album is good, but it's the only one in Patton's whole catalog where I would consider him the weakest link.
Slightly better than Angel Dust imo. I much prefer the guitar playing of Trey Spruance over Jim Martins' (really great at what he does but I'm not the biggest fan of that Flying V metal tone). While arguably smaller in its scale, this album is even more chaotic and varied than it's predecessor and relies more in the sheer personality of the band, which has always been Faith No More's biggest strength.
This album moves forward thanks to Mike Patton's unmatched charisma. Up until this point FNM was a sort of "party band", a really good one, but a set of talented musicians that didn't really have all that ambition. Turns out they just needed a frontman that was chaotic enough to push everyone to their creative limits.
I am no metal expert, It's one of those genres that I really have to be in the mood to listen to, but this is some of the best stuff I've heard in a long time. I saw someone call it "music for musicians" and while I understand where that sentiment comes from, I don't think the technicality is this album's main appeal. I think one can listen to this album without having any idea about music and still be mezmerized by the sheer vibes. This album sounds utterly evil ... read more
What if I said this is my favourite album of all time and that I don't even have words to express how much this was made for me. Thank you Geese
Llevamos ya década y media escuchando el discurso de «el rock ha muerto». Que su lugar en la cultura pop queda en el pasado y su posición en el mainstream la ocupan ahora el hip-hop, y en menor medida, el R&B. Todo esto es cierto, resulta casi innegable, pero ningún movimiento artístico muere para siempre. La música está destinada a reinventarse en un ciclo infinito de muerte y resurrección, mutando hasta llegar a formas muy ... read more
this album might just be good at first listen, but check it out if you're on a velvet underground/andy warhol phase and my god it hits you like a ton of bricks
Did not like this album for a long time but realized that when it comes to rock, like, straight up ROCK yeah, this almost as good as it can possibly get
His most eclectic and apparently disjointed but also ABSOLUTELY his most definitive. It almost feels like his whole career has lead us to this point and I can't be any more satisfied with the final result
One of the most perfectly paced albums of all time
