i understand the praise for all of them but theres a lot that i disagree with. it usually stems from lack of understanding of musical history and fame and acclaim propogating fame and more acclaim. all of them are just off the beaten path albums that new music listeners might find interesting. in that way i understand the praise in that way but in almost all cases i dont think they are particularly great musical works...

It would be Trout Mask, but I watched the Documentary and listened to it a bit more, so its starting to not sound as atrocious.

The context of shitty sounding music shouldn't excuse the fact that is unenjoyable to listen to you contrarian plen.

ITAOTS and TPAB
Kid A

Do people not really understand why albums like Madvillainy, Loveless, or Kid A are praised? Holy shit. You don't have to like them but it's so obvious why albums like these are acclaimed.
>>
>>72223072
I'm not saying that I think its some masterpiece or even that its listenable, but now I understand the praise that it gets like the thread is asking.

those emotional two-step beats

those tasteful vocal samples
