ITT: Albums that would be /mu/core if they weren't as popular

Popularity isn't a factor in /mu/core. Loveless, OKC, Kid A, and ITAOTS are among the most popular albums ever released.

>mentioned alot on /mu/ != most popular ever
most people I know have no idea those albums exist, furthermore, what he's saying is that people on /mu/ are just a bunch of contrarian hipsters who hate anything that is actually popular

>>72168838
>where Pink Floyd went wrong

>>72168838
That's like Pink Floyd's 5th best album.

>>72168976
literally everyone who digs a bit more than usual to find music knows those 4 albums
just because some people you know who don't care about music don't know these albums it doesn't mean they're not very popular

>>72169007
they went wrong on the See Emily Play 45 i think

>>72169007
They fell for progressive rock meme

>>72169007
they went wrong by umma gumma

piper and saucerful are the greatest achievements in psychedelic music

>>72168928
Thats not true tho, if you only like those albums you are considered a /mu/-drone

>>72169071
You realize most people are people who dont care about music, and just listen to whatevers on the radio.

>>72168928
OKC and Kid A, yes. Loveless and ITAOTS, no. The two pairs aren't even close.

>>72169213
that's not what I'm saying though. those albums are incredibly popular among music enthusiasts, not just on /mu/.

>>72169089
This is one of the definitive albums of sub-/mu/-core

>>72169232
music enthusiasts != the majority of the population that listens to music

>>72169265
>that's not what I'm saying though

>>72169288
> Loveless, OKC, Kid A, and ITAOTS are among the most popular albums ever released.
you are implying that because it is popular with music enthusiasts, that they are among the most popular of all time, when you fail to realize that the majority of peoples understanding and listening of music begins and ends in the top 40 of the 10 year period of time from when they are 15-25

>>72169327
I'm not that guy. I'm just saying >>72168976 is wrong for thinking these albums are only popular on /mu/

The whole Pink Floyd discography is /mu/core though

>>72169367
I didnt listen to a single one of those albums until coming onto mu.

this so much

This as well

>>72169916
I love this album, only song I don't really like from it is Screenager. Shame the only other album I like from them is Absolution which is nowhere near as consistant

>Pet Sounds...has...better
what did he mean by this?

>>72170879
Every Beach Boys album beats every Beatles album released in the same year. The Beatles unironically sound like bland pop shit, then bland fake psychedlic shit, then bland faux experimental shit, then bland pop shit again.

Any ELO t bh

>>72172310
Man, i never had so much fun listening to a popy album as much as i had when i listened discovery
Eldorado was amazing too

>>72172398
My favorites are A New World Record and Time, but Out of the Blue is up there. Seeing them live last year was fucking amazing, so close to the studio versions and their quality with so much more life to it

>>72172469
Last year tehy came to my coutry but didnt go cause i kept hearing it wasnt the original group or something idk and had a lot of other stuff to go, maybe i fucked up havent seen the footage but hope they come again soon, but i doubt theyl come

>>72172639
It isn't the entire original group, but is has the original frontman Jeff Lynne and the original pianist / keyboard player. Even had opera singers and a live orchestra.

>>72169327
they are among the most popular albums ever released because most people who listen to albums... do i need to go on? you aren't really arguing anything, just don't want to appear wrong. kys for being a fag (yes, i know that line destroyed every chace for you to admit that you're a fag)

ez

>>72168928
OKC and Kid A maybe, but Radiohead are more the exception to the rule. Loveless and ITAOTS have not sold that well. In relation, OP's album has sold 45 million copies. Even OKC has only sold a tenth of that.

>>72169007
They started getting it right by Meddle, DSOTM and Wish You Were Here were perfect, then it all went down the shitter with Animals. Excluding Comfortably Numb the second half of The Wall is unlistenable.

>>72169007
>implying their entire discography isn't amazing. If anything they went wrong with the wall and after the wall. Everything else they had made up to that point is goat.

>>72170851
lol, no

>>72172776
Any Rush album (debut-Hold Your Fire), my dude.

>>72173356
>second half of the wall is unlistenable
But anon that's the best part.

>>72168928
98% of americans couldn't name a single one of those albums.

>>72173464
Agreed. Hemispheres is mucore though 9or becoming mucore slowly).

Also Power Windows and Hold Your Fire are criminally underrated.
