most krautrock essential albums like future days and faust
les paul's ancient recordings

>>69728857
Yeah, this. Imitators are the ones who are way behind the times.

>>69728641
I think it came at the right time.
Although it hasn't aged at all
>>69728653

Yeah, okay.

>>69730286

I'm glad there are fellow avant-garde visionaries I can share my opinions with on this board

>>69730192

>>69730216

I don't know if it was "ahead of it's time" but it changed the definition of "indie-rock" to that of "indie-pop" and spawned a whole decade of shit music.

>>69728597
true

>>69730056
I'm seeing it right now in my own music. I like to use religious themes the way he does, he's a genius.

>>69732595
you sure this was the album to do that?

+ to a lesser extent 5 EPs

>cLOUDDEAD - cLOUDDEAD
>Bjork - Homogenic
Absolutely
Honestly basically everything from Homogenic to Biophilia could fall into this category. Vulnicura is still great but it's a lot less forward-thinking than her past releases imo

>>69728597
It's just production trickery, particularly the style that has been done by plunderphonics artists a lot by then.

>>69728629
God tier masterpiece of course. In a few years this will be up there with Sgt Peppers and Dark Side Of The Moon as the GOATest of the GOATs.

>>69728641
Pretty much. It's easiest to see like with Massive Attack who released far more hip hop sounding stuff earlier, then this comes out, and all of a sudden then make music that sounds like this.

>>69728653
Sabbath no. The truly differentiating ahead of its time record would be Master Of Reality. Silver Apples definitely I can think of only a handful of electronic music that did anything close to what that did and how much that particular format got popular. TVU&N maybe because there's technically been releases from TVU like right before that record that would be more deserving of that recognition. Dunno why you picked Larks of all the albums if anything its aping quite a bit of what was happening in the 70s by then.

>>69729118
Atomizer is mostly not ahead of its time outside a couple bits on the tracks that became popular tricks to be used by post-hardcore artists. Genesis and Roy Harper were doing similar stuff before Gryphon. Haven't actually listened to cLOUDEAD so idk. DSOTM is ahead of its time on studio tricks for sure. Homogenic is of its time very much influenced by the post-SAW 85-92 approach on downtempo. R+7 is Klaus Schulze and plunderphonics so nowhere near ahead of its time.

>>69729360
Treasure came in kinda late on that gothic post-punk party though. Heaven Or Las Vegas came in a bit late on dream pop. Suicide for sure because of how popular that style got within electronic music since. Krautrock I am not sure. A lot of experimentation there was experimental electronic, minimalism, psychedelic, and jazz/fusion which had already been done before. It's certainly entertaining for a modern day listen, but ahead of its time? Not exactly. "kosmische musik" was big though.

Agent Orange-Living in Darkness

>>69728629
This album was absolutely nothing special. Why do I see praise for it so often?

Treasure is dream pop you fucking idiot.

>>69734574
>TVU&N maybe
TVU&N was "maybe" ahead of it's time?

you're trying so hard to sound like an expert when you know absolutely nothing. your post is full of crazy revisionist stuff

>>69735362
it is praised by the mainstream, and gets posted here ironically for the exact reason you don't like it

>>69737301
this makes me unconfortable

>>69735362
your response is why they post it.

>>69730056
I really liked this album

>>69735326
I wouldn't say that it was ahead of its time, more like it used what was of its current time and flipped it upside down.

>>69737665
That's why I love it

they come from different schools of modern black metal, but they're both memed for being "entry-level hipster garbage" that Noisey loves.

>>69728597
These threads are pointless and repeatable. Everytime there is a thread like this or "goat albums"/"innovative albums"/"favorite albums" etc. we post the same fucking /mu/core albums albums (inb4: just because its /mu/core it doesnt mean its true and youre a contrarion) - dont deny it. Ive been on this board for 2 years and this hasnt board hasnt really evolved
Its always been
>aphex twin (good enough its not one speciffic album)
>tvu&n
>mbdtf (what is just absurd)
>kid a (why do you praise kid a so much? I love radiohead and kid a is great but listen to something more besides kid a and ok computer)
>trout mask replica (seriously?)
>the money store (i dont know why this album is so praised. Dg has better albums)
>mbv
>itaots (meme as fuck but its slowly dying)
>yankee hotel foxtrot (this is also dying but anyways)
>daydream nation

There are were and are of course /mu/core choices but their now /mu/corely almost dead (itcotck, spiderland,anco, american football, bjork). Come on guys, just stop posting these albums. I know that theyre great albums but lets presume when such threads are made, that these albums/artists are already considered as examples on these threads so there is no need to post it all the time. Lets leave /mu/core tier music on /mu/core threads and evolve in threads like these.

>>69737871
What if people just happen to enjoy these albums very much and hence they post them sincerely?

>>69737906
>I know that theyre great albums but lets presume when such threads are made, that these albums/artists are already considered as examples on these threads so there is no need to post it all the time.

I know people enjoy it and so do I but spreading the same things over and over again is pointless. Thats the point i was making all the time

>>69737940
okay, thats fine too
it's all entirely subjective

>>69728641
>techno bleep bloops

i thought retards didn't browse /mu/

I think its pretty obvious that they do.
