Changing Musical Opinions
What bands etc made you change your mind about their records at one point or another?
|
Bruce Springsteen...always hated the guy until a couple of months ago
|
I like some records by The Doors, now.
|
Never liked David Bowie until I heard The rise and fall of Ziggy.
|
M.I.A. . I used to find her music dull but after much tries I now love her tunes.
|
NYC Ghosts & Flowers.
I always liked two songs off this record since it came out. I went back and listened to it and realized how much it has grown on me byu me leaving it alone. |
I know it's blasphemous for someone who grew up on punk and new wave but ... The Jam. I dismissed them back when they first started out and have only recently gained an appreciation for them.
|
Used to hate Fleetwood Mac and Credence Clearwater Revival, but after hearing some of Fleetwood's early records, and "Green River" and "Keep on Chooglin" I came around. Same thing goes for a lot of black metal and "punk" music being made in the 00's in general, which I stupidly dismissed as the work of luddites.

sonic youth changed my mind about them with rather ripped and sonic nurse. i liked them before that.

hey-oh! i can see that maybe with rr. but nurse? really? what about the eternal? |
'Goo' definitely changed the way I thought about SY as a band. I've liked stuff they've done since but never with the same kind of enthusiasm as what I had for the pre-Goo stuff - although, to be honest, I was starting to develop doubts when they released Daydream Nation.

still havnt got the eternal. heard a few tracks and they sound ok but just not that great, i prefer the solo stuff more nowadays. sonic nurse was not good. |
crybabies
|
sonic nurse is fucking AWESOME. best record since DDN IMO
|
Trapped in the Closet changed R Kelly from ubiquitous RnB to Prince-esque over-inflated ego-tastic genius (although I'm still unconvinced Kelly himself understands quite why Trapped in the Closet is so brilliant).
Strauss' Electra, possibly conducted by Solti, stopped him being lush romantic to a very complete composer indeed in my head. |
I started to go off SY around Murray St, but Nurse definitely sealed it. Pattern recognition is brilliant, but the rest of it just makes me very weary.

i dont know if r kelly knows that trapped in the closet was mind alteringly hilarious. he seems to take it so serious. |
Country music. I used to think it was ghastly, but listening to some tunes (the usual suspects) turned my feeling towards it around.

pffft. jb-get the eternal. its good. [but i thought nurse was amazing too] solo stuff is also great, i like the syr's. im takin it that ur more of a noise boy? not into the more structured, melodic, lyrically influenced albums or what? |
every song i heard from the eternal just sounds kinda dull and when i hear text of light say, it sounds so much more raw and interesting. the likes of sonic nurse and the eternal will always please people i guess but when you hear the other stuff its much more exciting and less tried and tested.
