What are some songs/albums/lyricists with lyrics good enough to be analyzed in a college-level literature class?
For example I like the lyrics of pic related, but I don't think they deserve to be taught alongside stuff like T.S. Eliot, Edgar Allan Poe, William Blake etc
Father John Misty
Highway 61 Revisited (not BoB)
GKMC
Closer
that's about it

I agree the chainsmokers deserve having their song analysed in college
Is it the hip new thing or utter shit?
Idunno but I really liked it
8/10
>>72570051
>first listen
utter shit
>52834921839 listen
its actually a 7/10, PB still their best release
Both.
Does anyone have anymore info on this?. I'm very doubtful it actually came off cellphones in the sahara, smells like another "extreme music from africa" situation. Getting Jai Paul vibes from it.

Who cares? It's literally chart filler for poseurs. The music is merely secondary.

Checked
Col. Bruce Hampton collapsed and croaked on stage, the band kept playing and no one seemed to notice. Great way to go or asshole musicians?
What a shitty death
He died doing what he loved, could been worse
>>72569915
He often did really wacky things like that on stage...so everyone who knew him thought it was just part of his shtick.
He had repeatedly said in the past that he would die on stage...he died exactly how and where he wanted to...if not when.
But its freaky to see them all looking at him while they play and they have no idea they are watching him die.
Vinyl or CD /mu/?

Both. Cassetes too ;)
>>72569799
If I had to listen to physical media, CD. The ONLY good thing about records is the album art.
They both have their advantages. I've almost completed stopped purchasing CDs now though since it's so easy and often cheaper to just go with digital download in FLAC.

>12. Complexion
>'complexion don't mean a thing'
>13. The Blacker the Berry
>'the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice'
What did he mean by this?
>>72569519
Race is irrelevant unless you're white
He meant you should shelve the album a while and come back to it if or when you're smart enough to understand it
>>72569527
Where does he say "except if your white" though? Doesn't the next line of complexion say "Dark as the midnight hour or bright as the morning sun, Give a fuck about your complexion, I know what the Germans done."?
what did people listen to before radiohead invented music in 1997?
Kokomo
creep.

Is this bait? Please be bait.

Being the modern day MJ comes with its costs.
>There are people on this board who still buy CDs.
>Able to be played in your car
>Much cheaper
>Much more widely available
>Still get the collectibility factor and support the artist
>Paying fifty US dollars for a plastic disk with objectively poorer sound quality, requiring expensive manual setup just to play, and degrades physically every time you use it
For physical ownership, the compact disc is a patrician's choice.
They're cheaper than vinyl and can be easily ripped to my PC.
When you have financial priorities, you'll understand, OP.

How many limbs did you have to give for that original Mollusk??
>>72569219
100 bucks on discogs. cover had some water damage making the opening edge a bit wavy but the disc is fine.

That's right, don't be shy. Share what you've been listening to the most over the past three months. Rate, rec, guess, whaetver!
