This is better than Trout Mask Replica. So is Lick My Decals Off, Baby

both of those are 9.5/10, but tmr just takes it a step further.

Trout Mask Replica has more great songs on it, but the fact that it's a double album makes it less enjoyable to actually listen to the whole thing in one sitting.

Listen to TMR's instrumentals without the vocals, it can't really be compared to Safe As Milk but the intricacy and patterns of how each individual part meets each other makes it probably one of the most significant musical works of the past century period

the fact that it's a double album just increases the magnitude of it. It has more of an impact on the listener

Does it? The songs on Lick My Decals Off Baby were composed in a similar way and have a similar sound, but the fact that it's a little shorter than 40 minutes means that you can listen to the whole thing without getting fatigued. After a while listening to TMR, everything starts to blend together and it gets harder to break down the songs and hear each part.

when you listen to something I feel like it's best to have it all consense to yourself mentally as one product, like whatever you take away from it is all one solid mind state, regardless of its size. That said, this mind state is in my opinion is much more grand and farspread for longer albums which are done right (and TMR does it alright, though it admitably doesn't have any strengths for it being a double album other than the expanded mind state like I said, things like Have One On Me and Sing to God and some Autechre stuff are examples that I feel like are better because of their size).

For myself also I very often don't always listen to an album all the way though when I first listen to it, it's something that comes in time. I don't feel an obligation to stick to it in one sitting unless I'm playing a CD/vinyl. I feel like it's better to not have an intention of how you want to hear something and to just go about it naturally, though obviously I also think that albums should be appreciated and heard in full instead of just single songs. The end idea should be to always hear the whole album if its something that you like, but if I were to get a 2 hour album or something I'd probably just skip around it and get a taste of it before attempting going into it full throttle. It took a lot of me doing this with TMR to get into it enough to appreciate it along with its size (obviously as well to appreciate it, period).

that album is definitely underrated but that specific song is nothing notably special

>he actually fucking calls it a meme album in his video
that faggot is seriously the biggest /mu/ drone and he doesn't even try to hide it. His pan on Slowdive is bullshit but I at least respect him for having his own opinion for once
