The Explain Why You Like This Album ('cause i don't understand) Thread (albums, pink floyd)

[Antonio]

when i first listened to TMR, i loved it. can't explain why, i just loved the cacophany and chaos packed into the album, like a blues band on meth.

really, all i can say is that sometimes it's boring to listen to music that's crafted to sound good, sometimes i just want something that sounds wrong and messed up. if i just listened to music that was always pleasent sounding, i'd be bored out of my skull. and by music that isn't pleasent sounding, i don't mean bands with ****ty songs, like Nickelback or the like; those artists intended to make music that was pleasing to the human ear, but didn't really do too well. i mean music that's purposely made to sound bad. like i said before, i can't explain why i like it, i just have an urge inside me for some crazy music.


as for Vliet himself, i love his songwriting, so strange and really something that i like to sit back and analyze. his voice may be a bit abrasive at times, but when he gets it right, it sounds great.
