I heard Let Love In and the Firstborn is Dead early too. I prefer the latter.
We also had Kicking Against the Pricks which I imagine recieved a lot of play time in my youth but it wasn't as memorable ad the others |

I think that's my favorite psych rock album. It's a gem of the 60s to behold from a band that could possibly be underrated, I dunno. But with this full length they brought in avant-garde electronic stylings. The sound and quality are really amazing and do a justice for these tracks and ideas. It is one I'll forever love, I could say I've listened to it more than any other album of that ilk. Been a fan for a long time and just gave me the willies with their abstract texture |

I forgot there doesn't seem to be a solid amount of Kinks videos that I'd like to post so we can all feast our eyes on the album cover for Muswell Hillbillies
This is probably one of the most major nostalgia trips in here. It's one that I thoroughly enjoyed hearing all the time growing up even then, and it was played like a lot of times. And obviously I still love it and it remains a favorite, but compared to everything else it's something I'll always remember for making me a happy child. It is still an album that I can put on at any time and enjoy all the way through, and a good one for any occasion and any company. I think I said that exact sentence about Pink Flag too. Alcohol is definitely one of my favorite and most memorable songs ever, that's been a musical mainstay my whole life. But all of it is great, and it's a real easy and enjoyable listen forever |

Megadeth mother****in Hangar 18 cassingle, how do you like that cock asses I mean I would've put Peace Sells, but we've had this tape for hella more years and I wouldn't feel right. Even with just two tracks, radio and non radio version of the title, and "The Conjuring" live. It was jammed almost unnecessarily so. They're two of my favorites too. Although I guess I can include Peace Sells into this post too. We had the cd for a while, but not as long as that tape. Though the full album is totally killer and pretty much single handedly ignited an internal thrash attack with every badass track. |

This isn't my favorite Godflesh album and thankfully they've expanded their sound much more afterward but it's the generic iconic "shaped my life" album selection. It's heavy no doubt. And it was heavy in every way I wanted music to be heavy but hadn't yet realized. So it smashes the riffs. Hella phat. Mid paced to slow sludge metal delivered through the mechanical and industrial filter. So yeah it's brutal. I really wanted to be all about music like it after hearing it. And (while it's still really good) I've since acquainted myself with other music that just keeps building and building on this foundation. |

Got all wanting to talk about this now. And it's one that makes it into here while also being my fav from the artist. Dirt and Jar of Flies were important too but this one takes it for it's ambition. By far the most musically expansive album of theirs, it wanders deep into swampy and bleak sludge metal territory, as well as everything else you might have heard before, like blues and psych rock... But here it's all much more prevalent. Some of their most amazing tracks are littered throughout, "Sludge Factory", "Frogs", "Shame in You", "God Am" and whatever. It's a bit long and you might fond some filler but it's nothing that bad. I think "Heaven Beside You" is great for one of their sappy and lame tracks. Otherwise it's an album from that scene that wasn't afraid to add more variety to this grunge stuff. |
