It's just not interesting to me. I mean, the first three minutes or so go well, but then I get fidgety. Then it goes on for an hour. |

Not much to do with its atmospheric qualities, you just don't like the climate it seems.

Dopesmoker could be boiled down to a 12 minute opener, then there could be some other tracks and the album could be better. At least it's kinda unique. But that's a half hearted attempt at saying something nice about it. I legitemately can't think of a metal album I've ever heard that I wouldn't rather listen to. Not even from the vast pool of really ****ty ones. At least then, there could be a trainwreck to react to. Dopesmoker is a very expertly painted wall that I can watch as it dries.

this texas guy gets it.
i still gave it an 8 because it’s hella good, i just tend to gravitate towards holy mountain a lot more. i don’t see it as a 10 because there are too many moments that i could just do without. i think the biggest struggle seems to be understanding that this is to be listened to as one piece, and not like a traditional album. if you ever go into this expecting “songs” you’re probably gonna end up disappointed because it just doesn’t really play that way.

Since it's just one big track, I don't think there's any choice but to listen to it as one piece. I find it hard to believe many people would be confused about that once they realize what's going on.
