Production is usually what hooks me and brings me into a rap album first before I can start to appreciate things like flow and lyricism, so this album is like the perfect match and I really enjoyed it. A couple of songs didn't quite click but others like High and Robes and Shame had me on another planet
Had a cool sound and a couple of songs I'd maybe come back to. I kinda just wish the vibe of the album were more fleshed out but I guess when the whole thing is practically a satire that might be too much to ask
Good album but didn't really seem to click with me like it does for most others, not something i'd really come back to
The fact that almost every song on this album is someone's favorite should tell you something. It's not perfect and there are parts I struggle to stay connected, but the variety you get as a result makes up for it. As much of a struggle as Rev 9 certainly is, the transition into Good Night afterward is the only time a piece of music has actually made me cry before. Giving that song to Ringo was the best choice John could have ever made
While this is probably Floyd's best album technically it doesn't really take me off the ground in the same way as my favorite albums of theirs; still a great listen but I've found it less compelling over time. And after like 50+ attempts I still CANNOT get welcome to the machine to click. I also think Have a Cigar is a worse version of Money though that may be a controversial take
Rounding out the Floyd discog dive. Nothing mind blowing but a nice listen and Louder Than Words is amazing.
DAMN this guy can arrange a song. Layers upon layers of percussion and the most beautiful guitar work you'll ever see make this album one of the most compelling psych rock experiences you'll ever have. Not going to be something that leaves my consciousness any time soon.
Some cool noodling around and much more, didn't touch my soul or anything but great music and a nice way to spend 40 ish minutes
I always can't help but wonder if it's my fault I'm not "clicking" with albums like these or if I need to listen to them more to really get it
Had me totally hooked for the first two songs then completely lost me aside from a few brief moments. Love the concept just couldn't connect with it sadly
Okay I really liked this first listen but it warrants a more proper review than I gave it originally. This is just a really good album. Proof that you don't necessarily have to do anything revolutionary to create something timeless... this is just really good rock music.
Metal is so hard for me to get into as a genre but this album is an exception
Review subject to change but I liked this quite a bit, especially the longer songs. I love the layering
I very deeply love this album. I want to praise Wearing the Inside Out in particular because it doesn't get enough love and it's such an incredibly beautiful Wright piece
I have so much trouble connecting with most of the top 100 but this hit. Great music, strangely optimistic in spite of the edginess. I love the longer tracks especially but lovesong is my favorite; wish it were longer
Death, taxes, and art rock albums being shat on by music rating sites for literally 0 reason other than "It's Not Prog"
Like The Wall without the redeeming qualities... I feel like I'm listening to Vera over and over but it doesn't even have the story to make it at least somewhat compelling. Last 3 songs are a bit better but it's not nearly enough to save the album
