ITT: Describe an album with an aesthetic
>Smelling the pages of your old science textbook
>Christmas dinner with your in-laws
>Jousting tournament/festival on a sunny day
>>71797628
Just some amateur kid in his bedroom making music with their Ipad.
>going on a walk or riding your bike in summer
A barfight after too many fruity cocktails that ends with you throwing up in the parking lot.
Eating chocolate in a library
standing in a parking lot at night in the summer illuminated by street and neon lights
Eating dried pears at my grandmothers house.
>>71798793
this album is underrated
>>71799136
highly accurate
>>71799136
pretty much, haha
>Sprinting around an empty stadium at night
>going to the cinema alone without friends and watching a thriller
>Swimming around inside an industrial sized lava lamp
>>71799522
as in painfuL? I haven't listened to the album
>sitting on a lawn chair on your porch in the midwest, watching the sunrise
>>71799136
weirdly accurate

Definitely
>>71799465
Truly accurate

The first half is good, the second half is meh
Seattle Yodel is perf

>>71799554
I actually did this last week, thats why i posted it
Crying alone in your room due to the realization that growing up and growing old is inevitable.
>>71799698
I have no idea why, but whenever I listen to this I always visualise this scene from Cinderella.

>parents are gone for the weekened and the smell of beer as you and your mates jam in the basement
>no shoes neither any socks on, the feel of that sweet comfy basement carpet pressed against against your feet
lying in your bedroom on a saturyday night, it's been 6 months since she is gone. it's time to move on, now or never
>>71799749
>>71799752
Both accurate
>Driving around a comfy rural town in the rain
greasy hair smell and old furniture
>>71799741
They're both blue and dream-like, I guess.
in a dark car or bus, being driven through underground tunnels lit with bright orange lights
A road trip through the countryside on a beautiful day and no one has said a word in over an hour
making the decision to close your eyes on an acid trip
sitting in the center of a huge empty conference hall, just a huge white room
>>71799637
The first part is probably vetter overall yeah but the second part is a serious grower. Overall its pretty comfy and enjoyable
driving around a shitty part of town at 3 am
Chilling at a park in the city on a damp gloomy day in autumn
>oh yeah, the world's turned upside down
>riding the train in slightly bad weather in a very populated city

Being at a party but not really having a good time so you kinda halfheartedly dance
This house party is pretty cool, I like this girl I'm chatting and smoking a joint with...hey, wait, this isn't weed...oh shit...
>>71799749
Sounds more like Stratosphere desu
>Being alone and having a good time
staring at the walls and waiting to die
>>71800812
stratosphere is more like slowly waking up from a weird dream hungover as shit, after having attempted suicide by alcohol poisoning the night before
>>71797628
YES
only not my science textbook but another science textbook thats 40yrs old
july 5th, the hottest day of the summer. just around 2pm, extremely humid.

>After death, your soul becomes stranded in purgatory, and you spend the rest of your existence exploring the universe as a lonely spirit without a body, simply floating and observing until the end of time.
Leaving the space port in your used single class starship, getting ready for the next adventure ahead as you cruise through every port and checkpoint.
>>71799391
Watching the sunset during a light rain on a rural area
Playing tf2 at 3AM
Being a kid and playing in a sandbox
Arriving to the Antarctica after a long trip on boat.
Laying in your friend's bathtub at 2am after your first time drinking
>>71803666
Holy shit
>>71799070
this album will be etched in my memory as
>going on a summer evening walk and everyone is out playing pokemon go
>>71803459
sawII sounds too earthy to be exploring the universe. seems more like your spirit just wander the earth, contemplating circular, natural processes, like rain, or waves on a beach
>>71797628
child lying down in his bed while parents are watching television loudly in another room

too bad the game is near dead
>Waking up too early on a cold september morning, watching the empty streets while drinking stale water
>>71800012

Something about it just reminds me of being a cute innocent kid and enjoying the bearable outdoor chill and watching all the leaves change and all
>Last few weeks of your senior year of high school, saying goodbye to your friends and teachers and reminiscing on the parties you went to.
>>71805699
This never happened for anyone here.
>Living in a shitty coastal town filled with crazy people and scraping barnacles of old ships
>>71805289
walking around london alone at night as an absolutely based experience, especially if you know the city's secret histories and special places
>>71800347
Accurate
>>71803459
Its like being in a gigantic nuclear power plant or something.
>>71805662
stale water?
>>71801139
Even better:
>Drinking a bunch of cough syrup and stargazing in your rural backyard.
>masturbating to pictures of your waifu and crying yourself to sleep.
>>71805163
hahaha
>>71805788
>falling off your fishing boat into the murky green water, all the fish people drag you down slowly
>>71799569
Oh SHIT
This is accurate af
>>71805788
uh no

>Polaris
Nice
>>71806186
I was sitting in the passengers seat with my dad listening to this record just sorta chilling but still feeling bad inside just looking at the industrial areas/bridges/skyline of new york
The somewhat musty, yet pleasingly sweet and comforting smell of the interior of a well-used early 80s GM-made car.
>>71806166
Most accurate desu
Fuck flapjack is a trip, don't watch with drugs
>sitting alone on a hot sticky noon with flies on your dick
>>71806677
>drugged up, walking through a pumpkin patch and getting bullied by the pumpkins and threatening them back
>Walking along a pier staring at Gold Gate bridge during a depressive episode, after losing your soulmate. Reflecting on the last 20 years of your life.

>>71799990
I think I'd describe it as being strapped down in a dark room with occasional feet blocking what light is being let into the room
>>71803459
Trying to get away from something that is chasing you through a twilight forest. By the end of the album, you're not quite sure why you started running in the first place.
>Sitting on a bunch in on a Cold November night, watching the kids play, diving into a book about 20th century disasters.
Okay so apparently every single fucking album in existence feels like walking around the town at night.
Fuck, music is boring as hell.
>>71806797
I think that was what Mark was alluding too when he put out Rollercoaster, it was his coming out album
Glad a LGBT youth like yourself could see that.
If you listen to it you'll know
Day dreaming of an RPG you used to play for hours, losing your grip on reality to the nostalgia.
>>71806826
Go listen to Liberace or something of you don't want the whole walking melancholic nighttime vibe, nigger
>>71806826
it's all about that contemplative mood my boy
>walking around at night and tfw no gf ;_;
No seriously it's more like stalking a random girl and slowly cornering her into the ruins of the old factory and then knocking her out with a tire iron and spewing your AIDS-ridden jizz all over her face.
>conquering aliens from a galaxy far away
>>71806859
I'm sorry your favorite pity party albums are inferior to Liberace's music hall performances

>stumbling upon a giallo film on a satellite channel at the age of 8
>Lethal Weapon marathon on AMC
>>71807128
Pseudoscorpion is the artist, right? What is the album name? I can't remember it
Being sick sweating in your bed 3 days straight and puking up everything you eat
>>71807261
after some digging I think PsudeoScorpion might be the album name, apparently the artist is Zenjin or something. i'll keep doing my armchair investigations and see.
also is this album illegal? I sorta wanna listen to it out of morbid curiosity
>>71805821
>secret histories and special places
like what???
You're a German knight from the post-apocalyptic future, fleeing your baronny in the middle of winter, your former vassals are hunting you down because you're infected with a strain of sexually-transmitted vampirism and your lady is locked in your bunker and only gives birth to freaks. You're cornered, you're cold, you're hungry, you're dying. And God doesn't talk to you anymore.

>>71797628
Walking in the dark, it's raining. You get inside soaking wet, take a warm shower and relax to the sound of raindrops falling onto your roof
Walking down a cobblestone street on a cloudly day in an old English town. The ground is damp from a recent rain.

fuuck dude such a great DS album.
>>71806218
>>71808872
Seeing this made me want to qualify my post, I mean to say that you are at ease while listening to the album. It reminds me of being on a long train ride home and feeling eager to see my family after months away. The album also does have the feeling of a mother lulling her child to sleep, the repeated cooing is calming.
