Oh and Phish. ... I love Phish. I love every album except Hoist, which is terrible, but I have tons of their shows and I sometimes go on listening frenzies where they're all I listen to.

I know they're sometimes silly, but I think their music is actually quite challenging.

Black and Blue is also cool. DAMN people suck.

Goats Head Soup has Silver Train.........so, whatever.

it also has "Can you hear the MUsic".:)

It's Only Rock n Roll is pretty fucking cool too,.
Goats Head, itīs Only Rīn`R, Some Girls, Tattoo You, Undercover, Steel Wheels, Voodoo Lounge, Bridges to Babylon, I love them all! I think Black and Blue and Emotional Rescue is kind of weaker albums in the seventies but of course theyīre also enjoyable. But I agree many people, that Stones have their best period in Between the buttons-Exile -albums.

don't hate them, just think their influence has wore out.

i'd rather listen to Ruby Tuesday than Penny Lane.
I think the todayīs music will be very different without Beatles. For example Oasis is just a lousy copy of Beatles. And itīs very possible there hadnīt been even SY without Beatles. I think Beatles just change everything totally, itīs the first band who make popular music art. But anyway, if somebody ask me beatles or stones, I also answer Stones!

I can't stand anything by the Stones after the early '70s. The '80s were terrible for them, and even though they had a big "come back" in the '90s, the music was tepid and boring.

Still, I saw them on the Voodoo Lounge tour and on the Bridges to Babylon tour, and they rocked both times.

I don't get legitimate hate for this, but I like Korn's first two albums a lot, like a whole lot. I have a few friends that give me shit about it, but whatever, fuck 'em. Another one is Madonna's Immaculate Collection. Friends thought I was kidding, because I only really listen to noise. I wasn't kidding...

littlepriest - the Korn revival was started on here a few years ago, before the unfortunate Skrillex association. [Bring back Herr Park]

THere was a Korn revival? On a sonic youth board?

Glice 02.11.2012 07:30 PM
Yeah. Well, someone pointed out they weren't awful and a few people went 'yeah, they were alright, in fairness'. Back in the day.

I like also Little Feat, specially Waitin For Columbus is just great. To me itīs totally same, if somebody wants to make fun of it.

The first 3 or 4 albums are great. I also like WFC.

I think Iīve heard some of those a long time ago. I have only The Last Record Album (I think itīs ok) and that live.

gmku 02.12.2012 03:42 PM
The Last Record Album is ok but it's definitely not their best. It's far inferior to the first few albums.

and I'd like to add another album to this thread. It's an album most people do not enjoy... and it's by SY! Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star. I understand it was a weird transition for them at the time, but it's one of the reasons I quite enjoyed this one. It has the first song I ever heard by them.. Bull in the Heather. I remember someone sending me a link of the video or something and I decided to check them out. When I listened to their self titled and confusion is sex it completely caught me off guard. Definitely didn't sound like the same band. I do agree that it pales in comparison to those I mentioned and many others but I think as a whole it still works. I even like how it starts off with an acoustic song... they took some chances with this one. The only issue I had was that thurstons vocals suck and there's no Ranaldo on the album.

Why would anyone hate you, especially anyone here, for liking a great album by the band that this board is dedicated to silly? :)

EJST&NS is great.

It is, and it's actually the album that introduced me to that particular band.
