That's a great album. Totally agree.

Unrelenting, bombastic, proggy, punky, symphonic masterpiece that puts about 99.999% of other bands to shame. I've been aware of this album for a while but only recently went balls deep into it. Surprised it's not "mbcore" tbh.

I tried once and it just didn't sit well with me.

You might like A Little Man and a House and the Whole World Window, it's easier to digest. I initially thought they were annoying so you might come around.

I'm sure I will. It takes me a while with some things.

Dr. John, the Night Tripper
Gris-Gris

Well, now I'm getting drunk and spinning my Dr.John records. his first and most important to my heart, Gris-Gris, is up first. Back when I was a kid I used to pick out a record at random from my dads collection and spin it. I picked this one out, without listening to it before, on Halloween based solely on the fact that the cover creeped me out. I stalked around the house dressed as Batman all goddamn night to this record. I just kept starting it over. People came over and were like...Dr. John? Really? Pop was just like, well, the kid likes it so I'm cool with that. The dude meant a lot to my growing up and I'll miss him. F*cking sucks I never made it to see him live. Damn shame.

RIP Doc.

Looking at that cover I can imagine he'd be tickled at scaring children on Halloween and then becoming their soundtrack.

i just heard for another time this lp i absolutely love.
one of the best ever instrumental hip hop records.

I had heard of this, but never listened to it yet. I like it quite a lot, and it feels like a record that will get even better with repeated listening. Sad that he died :(
your dad seems cool btw
