Same here and I'm a huge Beatles fan. I think that Mick Jagger is a dumb faggot.
>>
>>74537473
Same.
>>
>>74537422
It's pretty great if you are a fan of hip-hop, otherwise you probably won't like it that much. I listened to it before I really got into rap music at all and I didn't really understand the hype. Listen to a lot more now and I do enjoy it a lot more these days. Great but not the goat
>>
>>74537571
I'm in the same boat. Don't know why, but every Stones song I've heard other than Gimme Shelter seems pretty uninspired. Can anybody recc the best starting point for the Stones? I know that I'm probably just being ignorant but for whatever reason I just can't be ballsed to listen to them at all on my own.
>>
>>74538075
Paint it Black and Satisfaction are great songs. I think we should ignore that fact that Mick Jagger is an idiot and give it a listen.
>>
>>74537338
>>74537439
Both of these.
>>
>>74537338
Same. I can't help but image the singer as some kind of hipster emo who whines about everything even though the worst thing he's ever experiences is a pet dying or something mundane.
>>
>>74538075
I initially had the same issues with the stones. The thing is a lot of the rest of their songs are completely different to their hit songs, and are more blues oriented rock songs, but if I were you, I'd listen to Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main street first.
>>
>>74538075
Don't go into The Stones expecting trippy psychedelic melody. Go in expecting gritty, roots rock n roll. Honestly, the comparison to The Stones and The Beatles is so contrived, the only thing they have in common is that they were popular at the same time.

Listen to Sticky Fingers first, I guess. Maybe with a glass of whiskey.

>>
>>74537554
it sounds like one person who wanted to make a solo album that sounded like a full band, a huge band, a Broken Social Scene sized band, but that felt like lying so then they did the opposite at the last second. It's densely layered but all of the layers are quiet, half-there fragments and all the playing shifts around like it's coming from nowhere and the space the music was played in doesn't exist

I feel like I'd like pic related but I still haven't listened to it

>>74537338
Still don't get the appeal of this album, it's a lot of underdeveloped and underwhelming ideas, Mount Eerie was better

>>74537398
It wouldn't hurt to try OKC or Kid A

>>74537422
It's not mind blowing or anything (if you don't like hip hop it's certainly not gonna change your mind), but it is really good

>>74537439
Love it or hate it album, just listen to the title track and if you don't like that then don't bother

>>74539072
Same, Jay-Z seems very much all about attitude from the features I've heard from him, so I feel a full project from him would be draining if I'm constantly bombarded with it

>>74539093
Also same, but with Jangle Pop in general
>>
>>74539126
>(if you don't like hip hop it's certainly not gonna change your mind)
That's where I'd argue with you. I think Madvillainy and Mm..Food are both real gateway albums for a lot of dyed in the wool dad rock kiddos. Agree that it is not the pinnacle of hip hop though, but a really solid album.
>>
>>74539126
>I feel like I'd like pic related but I still haven't listened to it
I think the key word is "refuse" you just haven't listened to it yet. If anyone here seriously refuses to listen to pretty much any album then that's sad.
>>
>>74537338
its only good if youre sad
>>
"Refusing" to listen to music on any basis is stupid, autistic, and childish. So, about par for here.
>>
>>74537439
This. I tried listening to this album when I was younger and didn't like it at all. I might really enjoy it or understand it more now but part of me doesn't want to just because it's such a meme

I love all of the radiohead albums but I cannot get into this one at all, It has 2 songs that I like, the others don't stick out to me at all, same problem with Pablo Honey and to some extent The Bends
>>
>>74537487
Post hardcore as in fugazi, slint, big black. Or as in emo shit? Because you're missing out on the former

Any /mu/core (besides radioedhead), rap hip hop (Kanye, Kendrick) most of the modern day esstintials. I think they're all shit. WTF happen to /mu/? You guys are nigger lovers now!

You and op are fucking up. It has a very specific atmosphere that i haven't heard anyone besides Microphones/Mr Eerie capture. Listen to this record on a rainy autumn day on with your headphones on. Dont turn your heat on for added effect. You're welcome

this

but i think to like radiohead they have to be one of your first ever bands. if not they will always be garbage, as you will have found something better already.
>>
>>74545251
i know it isn't for everyone, but i think this band is a grower more than any i've ever listened to. you will be heavily rewarded for trying.

idk, I got into radiohead in my 30s and got a 30-ish year old coworker into it later on as well. something about it resonates with those days when you're in a soulless white collar job and wondering when exactly your life turned into a dilbert strip.

Never listened to any /mu/core albums besides anco and the microphones. Have never listened to the doors, rolling stones, the clash, acdc, ramones, pink floyd, Metallica,iron maiden,radiohead, basically any thing classic like that. I do love black Sabbath though. Idk I listen o new stuff everday but I just have zero intrest in any classic stuff like that. My mom listened to alot of sabboth, guns and roses and type o negative so I heard that growing up. I do like anco alot but even hearing a few songs that are considered mu core I think it's all garbage and people really need to branch out more.

>>74547624
So what do you listen to? Sounds like you need to branch out more
>>
>>74537447
Listen to Dirty Mind or 1999. The former has more of a New Wave/Funk sound, and the later is more synth based.

Purple Rain is his most popular album, but if you were the type of person who should start there, you would have already listened to it by now.
>>
>>74547752
just folk, ambient, drone and lots of industrial and bleeps. I'm pretty damn happy been this way for more than 12 years
>>
>>74548051
Do you listen to new music outside the genres or inside your listening spectrum? Because as someone who also enjoys ambient and drone, I had to be spoonfed other genres to expand my music taste.
>>
>>74548118
nope because there is an endless amount of new music in my genres ( even in industrial and drone alone) to satisfy me everyday and probably forever with how much music comes out everyday. I'm just not a fan of other stuff really, won't dismiss it I suppose but I won't go out of my way for it.
>>
>>74537398
This, hundred times this!
I'd say I ignore all the albums that are 24\7 on frontpage, except a few

This
>>74537398
I think with Radiohead if you don't like In Rainbows there's a 95% chance you won't like anything else by them.
