ITT: Albums you only listened to for the first time because you liked the cover
too bad it was shit
think I got through 3 tracks

Seriously man? You didn't even like Never Meant?
Seriously disappointing
>>71946332
That and Spiderland are the most overrated albums on /mu/.
As for American Football, all the praise they receive should instead be for The Brave Little Abacus.

Post rock is such a fucking meme genre . I'm convinced their fans are a highly vocal minority here

Tobehonest, LYSF is one of my favorite albums of all time, but besides that, yeah, Post-Rock suffers from similar issues as Shoegaze.
very glad i did

Didn't realise it was a cat at first, brilliant album though, so much so that I'd argue it to be one of the best shoegaze albums out there, think Ride though much more dance-able and fun.
9/10

>post-rock suffers from similar issues as shoegaze
explain??
This album is a hoot!
I've done it quite a few times, it's basically always disappointing...not that they are bad, but usually the cover is the best part, this and that SubRosa album are the first ones that come to mind, this was the better of the two but still nothing special
Turned out to be one of my favorite drone albums

preeetty gud

It all sounds the fucking same. Even post-punk has more variety, and it's full of Joy Division ripoffs.

rec me albums that sound like spiderland please
>>71947053
>It all sounds the fucking same.
I am so confused right now. Are we still talking about post-rock?

Agree with BLA deserving praise. Wish they would remaster their albums. They're so quiet.
cool cover

Shit was so cash when I was a wee lad. Still got the original edition with the Ernie doll on the back cover.
This one.
I fucking love these 2 tracks on it though.
They are super chill, I just love listening to them and relax.

One of the worst albums I've ever heard
Hooked me immediately

It was the alternate cover that got me, don't regret it.

A problem I have all the time with post rock and shoegaze is that I like a particular album and I can't find enough that sounds like it. Usually the production is the part that isn't right.
Half the bands that get called rip offs don't sound similar enough for me.
I don't think I finished it, couldn't get into it
Both this and The Impossible Kid were recent albums that I was gonna skip out on based on the limited material I heard, but then said "OH SHIT NIGGA" and listened to them the same day I saw the cover art.
