灰野敬二 [Keiji Haino] - ここ [Koko]
72

Listening to all albums I must hear before I die, part 7.

Finally got around to this album, and I was pretty hyped considering the genre tags. Unfortunately, it was not all I was hoping for. Not that the album was bad, just underwhelming. The buildup in the song was very pleasant and itriguing, but it didn't quite stick the landing in my opinion, with the second half feeling a bit undercooked by comparison. I do, however, get the appeal of it.

Coil - Moon's Milk (In Four Phases)
85

Listening to all 1001 albums I must hear before I die, part 10.

The least anticipated return on the internet is finally upon us. I can only hope that I'll continue for a little longer this time. To be honest, I would like for my first review back to be more in-depth, but this album is so wierd that I find it hard to give a good analysis. To me this amounts to nothing more than a mood, but that's not really a bad thing. Overall I could see someone calling this either the best or the ... read more

Madvillain - Madvillainy
91

Listening to all 1001 albums I must hear before I die, part 9.

We finally arrive at the first album on the list that I've heard before, and what an album it is! Madvillainy is one of the most legendary hip hop albums of all time, and that's for a good reason. MF DOOM's rapping is as unbelievable as always, with insane wordplay and flow. Madlib continues being one of the best producers of all time, and they both complement each other perfectly. In fact, this album just feels kind ... read more

King Crimson - Beat

Listening to all 1001 albums I must hear before I die, part 8.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the previous album on spotify, so I'll start numbering these after the album's place on the list.

I was already quite familiar with King Crimson before listening to this, so I thought I knew approximately what to expect. This is not what I expected. This doesn't sound like King Crimson at all! ...And I actually like it? Yeah, it's definitely no Court or Red, but ... read more

Merzbow - Aqua Necromancer

Listening to all 1001 albums I must hear before I die, review 6.

Yup, this noice certainly is harsh, I don't really have much more to say about this album than that. It has some moments that are listenable, and it's definitely interesting, but oh my god do my ears hurt. I guess harsh noice just really isn't a genre for me.
