theklein25 reviews albums

[IceyHotshot]

I'm glad you enjoyed the Talking Heads album, dude.

[nyarlathotoats]

I'm a little surprised that you rated it so high, considering the second half of the album was rather lackluster for you.
And ftr, I feel "Listening Wind" is one of the album's stronger tracks.

[theklein25]

I didn't really feel an animal inside me just some dance fever. I guess a snake slithering.
So Orbital, Kriss Kross, and then Animal Collective. I'm going to make a google doc. Next review may not happen until tomorrow

If you're not going to take this seriously, just quit now.

If there's an album that you guys think will be a waste of time let me know.

[xuclarockerx]

Peter Gabriel - 4/Security

[nathanfairchild]

[Gribbz]

Changing my request

[Boourns]

Scott Walker - The Drift

[rasooli]

Thanks theklein25, looking forward to the Orbital review. It's been the album Ive been listening to the most this past month. I also disagree with Soul Discharge and Nathanfairchild. Your reviews have been good even without animal references and I don't think youre a Linkon Park fan. Keep up the good work!

[nathanfairchild]

look at his sig dumbass.

[Miroir Noir]

Talk Talk - Laughing Stock

[rasooli]

He is obviously going to that show solely for Mutemath.

[cutterbutter]

My pick is My Morning Jacket's Z.

From the last page before it gets lost. Always makes me happy to put this one on.

GWAR - Scumdogs of the Universe plz

Talking Heads - Remain in Light
Album starts off pretty groovy and the bass kills in each song. I hope they played this record in the clubs for all the kids. Towards the end the songs lose a little bit of their magic. "Listening Wind" wasn't as good as everything else. "Once in a Lifetime" was the only song I knew going into Remain in Light. I learned Talking Heads have some great songs that aren't just the hits. David Byrne sounds great and this album brought me back to a time period I never lived in. Great album.

My rating: 8.5

This is actually very well done.

When you feel up to it, please consider sharing with us your thoughts on Tom Waits' Swordfishtrombones. Thanks.

As a big VU fan and having been into Reed's solo stuff a good bit I will admit I've never listened to this whole thing at one time. Its history is interesting but thats about it for me. So props for pleasing these folks and listening to easily the most extreme album request in here. Quite outside "the box" for most people. Hopefully it does not turn you off of the rest of Reed's catalog.

[bmack86]

Hell, Lou Reed claims to never have listened to it in one sitting. But, lets be real here. If you like abrasive music, then you can actually find a lot of beauty in that record.

That Lou Reed review is fucking classic.

[GeezrRckr]

Love the google doc...this kid ain't fucking around. Probably the most attention he's gotten in his 14 years on Earth.

Okay, here's one for you:

Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band - Trout Mask Replica

Then, Bmack...please suggest a Boredoms album. You are the best person for that task.

[TomAz]

That Lou Reed review is fucking classic.

Agreed.

[GuyInTucson]

Potentially the thread of the year.

[getbetter]

Potentially the thread of the year.

The 2012 threads are definitively beginning to be more interesting.

I'm VERYexited for the Orbital - Wonky review coming tomorrow!

[RotationSlimWang]

Holy shit, why must you assholes keep suggesting albums that only a douchebag would have any frame of reference for.

I want to hear his thoughts on more popular stuff that his age might not have exposed him to in album form, I couldn't give a flying fuck what he thinks about Liars (who have never made anything that didn't suck shit) or Animal Collective (who have never made anything that didn't suck shit) or Orbital (who have never made anything that didn't suck shit).

theres 2 two types of people who like metal machine music. the half who know its noise and use it to piss off neighbors by pressing your speakers against the wall so it penetrates the insulation as much as acoustics can allow (so they move out) and the half who are who sonically bankrupt fucking morons who listen to it who think its cool when its nothing but an annoying contract dodge and would otherwise listen to toilet reverb if it had lou reeds name on it(if it was first released prior to 1980). he hasn't been amusing since he was a robot and has the complexion of a baseball glove thats been run through john kruks ass.

Go wait another 10 years for Tool's next boring magnum opus. <3<3<3
