The album was a satire of the shitty psychedelic music that had started to become popular at the time

>>74244051
>album consists of 60s pop, "experiments" that were already outdated by 1966, and simple as shit harmonic progressions compared to what Beatles/Beach Boys were doing
Jfc you guys really don't know shit about music if this felt like something super far ahead of its time.

How were tape loops and musique concrete outdated by 1966...?
>>
>>74246479
Because classical and experimental musicians were already heavily working with those for almost two decades before Freak Out! was a thing? This stuff was already first being really messed around with by Pierre Schaffer in the 40s. The most ambitious things to come out the tape loop/concrete realm were Stockhausen's Gesang der Jünglinge and Kontakte which were both made in the late 50s. Zappa/Beatles approach to tape loops by 1966 is not just too late, but extremely amateur and primitively compared to what had been done with that kind of music by then.

am I the only who liked all the arcs about upcoming youngsters? it's a shame they stopped it after season 3

Yeah but that doesn't make it outdated. When the Beatles did it on Revolver it wasn't outdated. When Zappa did it it wasn't outdated. These were new effects in pop/rock music, so they couldn't be outdated.

Shut the fuck up gayboy
>>
>>74246853
Just because it was new in pop music doesn't make it some innovative, ahead of its time thing that OP insinuated it be. It's the opposite. Hell, even if we stick to more..."pop" stuff, the original Dr. Who theme beats out both Beatles and Mothers Of Invention by three years.
>>
>>74246929
Yeah, I know, I'm well aware of early instances of these effects, but they aren't "outdated" if the vast majority of people haven't heard them before. "Not innovative", maybe, if you refuse to consider context. But objectively, these were not "outdated" sounding records when they came out.

And the song itself instrumentally was something almost unfathomable for a "rock" band in the 60's:
