Am I the /only/ one who thinks Be Here Now is fucking great? Of course it isn't mixed great, but calling it a complete disaster is completely unfair. Be Here Now just sounds like cocaine in auditory form, its great
>>69362708
I think its more of the fact that it couldn't live up to its unrealistically high hype. Still a decent album IMO
>>69362701
>>69362779
i heard pitchfork gave it a 9.0
just sayin'
>>69362779
Melatonin, we the people, and mobius are the best songs on the album my man
>>69362798

Yeah but I said it was still decent, not bad (but that's a matter of opinion). It would really be a letdown if it was shitty when everyone thought it was gonna be GOAT.

The new Tribe album could've been great if it weren't for its stupid "all whites are evil and want to kill everyone" shit it goes on about

What the hell is wrong with you most of these are great
>>69363285
They're huge letdowns, on their own, some of them are okay

>>69362648
>>69363352
It's not nearly as good as Avery Island
And fuck me for forgetting, probably because I try to pretend it never happened but Graduation is pretty high up there by virtue of being one of the worst albums of all time and a follow-up to two albums from a then-extremely promising new artist

It angered me so much that it made look poorly on the rest of the album though
I don't mind politics that don't agree with me, but they went about it in a really stupid way
>>69363462
Also the very first song is literally "le hillary will guide us and le whites are all black hating evil racists"
